The analysis and design of urban near-home environments according to psycho-social needs and behavior of human beings
(Bilkent University, 1996)In this study, the design of urban near-home environments is examined considering the social and psychological needs of human beings as well as human spatial behavior. After an introduction to the concepts such as environment, ... -
Analysis of design parameters in safety-critical computers
(IEEE Computer Society, 2018)Nowadays, safety-critical computers are extensively used in many civil domains like transportation including railways, avionics, and automotive. In evaluating these safety critical systems, previous studies considered ... -
Analysis of design parameters in SIL-4 safety-critical computer
(IEEE, 2017-01)Nowadays, Safety-critical computers are extensively used in may civil domains like transportation including railways, avionics and automotive. We noticed that in design of some previous works, some critical safety design ... -
Assessment of hazardous material risks for rail yard safety
(Elsevier, 2007)This paper illustrates the application of quantitative risk assessment in a rail yard where tank cars of hazardous materials are received and stored. The assessment was conducted in response to community concerns about ... -
Aviation risk perception: a comparison between experts and novices
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing, 2004)This article describes an exploratory investigation of the risk perceptions of experts and novices in relation to helicopter operations, under conditions where the participants are matched on various characteristics ... -
Computer vision based forest fire detection
(IEEE, 2008)Lookout posts are commonly installed in the forests all around Turkey and the world. Most of these posts have electricity. Surveillance cameras can be placed on to these surveillance towers to detect possible forest fires. ... -
Extending the importance–performance analysis (IPA) approach to Turkish elderly people’s self-rated home accessibility
(Springer, 2019)Designers are still struggling to make good and fair home designs for elderly people. Although there are a lot of studies on accessibility in homes, there are few methodologies to rate the importance of accessible home ... -
Hierarchical reasoning game theory based approach for evaluation and testing of autonomous vehicle control systems
(IEEE, 2016)A hierarchical game theoretic decision making framework is exploited to model driver decisions and interactions in traffic. In this paper, we apply this framework to develop a simulator to evaluate various existing autonomous ... -
Modeling of electrodes and implantable pulse generator cases for the analysis of implant tip heating under MR imaging
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing, Inc., 2015)Purpose: The authors purpose is to model the case of an implantable pulse generator (IPG) and the electrode of an active implantable medical device using lumped circuit elements in order to analyze their effect on radio ... -
Moral mechanisms
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2014)As highly intelligent autonomous robots are gradually introduced into the home and workplace, ensuring public safety becomes extremely important. Given that such machines will learn from interactions with their environment, ... -
Universal product design involving elderly users: a participatory design model
(Elsevier, 2004-07)Recent studies have shown that people prefer to age in their familiar environments, thus guiding designers to provide a safe and functionally appropriate environment for ageing people, regardless of their physical conditions ...
