(3+3+2) Warped-Like Product Manifolds With Spin(7) Holonomy
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2011) Uğuz, Selman; Bilge, Ayşe Hümeyra
We consider a generalization of eight-dimensional multiply warped product manifolds as a special warped product by allowing the fiber metric to be non-block diagonal. We define this special warped product as a (3 + 3 + 2) warped-like manifold of the form M = F x B. where the base B is a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold and the fibre F is of the form F = F-1 x F-2 where the F-i(i = 1 2) are Riemannian 3-manifolds. We prove that the connection on M is completely determined by the requirement that the Bonan 4-form given in the work of Yasui and Ootsuka [Y. Yasui and T. Ootsuka Spin(7) holonomy manifold and superconnection Class. Quantum Gravity 18(2001)807-816] be closed. Assuming that the F-i are complete connected and simply connected it follows that they are isometric to S-3 with constant curvature k > 0 and the Yasui-Ootsuka solution is unique in the class of (3 + 3 + 2) warped-like product metrics admitting a specific Spin(7) structure.

Chebyshev Nets Formed by Ricci Curves in a 3-Dimensional Weyl Space
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2005) Yıldırım, Gülçin Çivi; Özdeğer, Abdülkadir
In this paper Ricci curves in a 3-dimensional Weyl space W-3(g T) are defined and it is shown that any 3-dimensional Chebyshev net formed by the three families of Ricci curves in a W-3(g T) having a definite metric and Ricci tensors is either a geodesic net or it consists of a geodesic subnet the members of which have vanishing second curvatures. In the case of in indefinite Ricci tensor only one of the members of the geodesic subnet under consideration has a vanishing second curvature. (c) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Detached Eddy Simulation of Shallow Mixing Layer Development Between Parallel Streams
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2015) Kirkil, Gökhan
Results of a high resolution Detached Eddy Simulation (DES) are used to characterize the evolution of a shallow mixing layer developing between two parallel streams in a long open channel with a smooth flat bed and medium size dunes. The study discusses the vertical non-uniformity in the mixing layer structure and provides a quantitative characterization of the growth of the large-scale quasi two-dimensional (2D) coherent structures with the distance from the splitter plate. Results show that in streamwise sections situated between 75D (D is the channel depth) and 1501) from the splitter plate the width of the mixing layer close to the free surface is 20-30% more than the width in the near-bed region. This is mostly because of the tilting of the mixing layer interface on the low-speed side toward the low speed stream as the free surface is approached. Power spectra of the horizontal velocity components near the free surface show the presence of a -3 subrange corresponding to inverse energy cascade in two-dimensional turbulence at streamwise locations situated more than 10D from the splitter plate consistent with the presence of large-scale quasi 2D horizontal eddies and the transfer of energy (inverse energy cascade) from the smaller scales toward these eddies. Consistent with visualizations of the mass transport of a passive scalar within the mixing layer close to the free surface the estimated streamwise length of the quasi 2D mixing layer eddies is about 2.5-3.0 times larger than the local width of the mixing layer. The presence of large-scale roughness elements in the form of an array of two-dimensional dunes with a maximum height of 0.25D (D is the channel depth) induces a much more rapid and larger shift of the centerline of the mixing layer due to the increased influence of the bottom roughness.

An Equivalence Class Decomposition of Finite Metric Spaces Via Gromov Products
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2017) Bilge, Ayşe Hümeyra; Çelik, Derya; Koçak, Şahin
Let (X, d) be a finite metric space with elements P-i, i = 1,..., n and with the distance functions d(ij) The Gromov Product of the "triangle" (P-i, P-j, P-k) with vertices P-t, P-j and P-k at the vertex Pi is defined by Delta(ijk) = 1/2(d(ij) + d(ik) - d(jk)). We show that the collection of Gromov products determines the metric. We call a metric space Delta-generic, if the set of all Gromov products at a fixed vertex P-i has a unique smallest element (for i = 1,., n). We consider the function assigning to each vertex P-i the edge {P-i, P-k} of the triangle (P-i, P-j, P-k) realizing the minimal Gromov product at P-i and we call this function the Gromov product structure of the metric space (X, d). We say two Delta-generic metric spaces (X, d) and (X, d') to be Gromov product equivalent, if the corresponding Gromov product structures are the same up to a permutation of X. For n = 3, 4 there is one (Delta-generic) Gromov equivalence class and for n = 5 there are three (Delta-generic) Gromov equivalence classes. For n = 6 we show by computer that there are 26 distinct (Delta-generic) Gromov equivalence classes. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Evaluating Machine Tool Alternatives Through Modified Topsis and Alpha-Cut Based Fuzzy Anp
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2012) Ayağ, Zeki; Özdemir, Rıfat Gürcan
The problem of machine tool selection among available alternatives has been critical issue for most companies in fast-growing markets for a long time. In the presence of many alternatives and selection criteria the problem becomes a multiple-criteria decision making (MCDM) machine tool selection problem. Therefore most companies have utilized various methods to successfully carry out this difficult and time-consuming process. In this work both of the most used MCDM methods the modified TOPSIS and the Analytical Network Process (ANP) are introduced to present a performance analysis on machine tool selection problem. The ANP method is used to determine the relative weights of a set of the evaluation criteria as the modified TOPSIS method is utilized to rank competing machine tool alternatives in terms of their overall performance. Furthermore in this paper we use a fuzzy extension of ANP a more general form of AHP which uses uncertain human preferences as input information in the decision-making process because AHP cannot accommodate the variety of interactions dependencies and feedback between higher and lower level elements. Instead of using the classical eigenvector prioritization method in AHP only employed in the prioritization stage of ANP a fuzzy logic method providing more accuracy on judgments is applied. The resulting fuzzy ANP enhances the potential of the conventional ANP for dealing with imprecise and uncertain human comparison judgments. The proposed approach is also applied for a real-life case in a company. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Inventory Planning and Coordination in Disaster Relief Efforts
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2013) Davis, Lauren B.; Samanlıoğlu, Funda; Qu, Xiuli; Root, Sarah
This research proposes a stochastic programming model to determine how supplies should be positioned and distributed among a network of cooperative warehouses. The model incorporates constraints that enforce equity in service while also considering traffic congestion resulting from possible evacuation behavior and time constraints for providing effective response. We make use of short-term information (e.g. hurricane forecasts) to more effectively preposition supplies in preparation for their distribution at an operational level. Through an extensive computational study we characterize the conditions under which prepositioning is beneficial as well as discuss the relationship between inventory placement capacity and coordination within the network.

Markov-Modulated Analysis of a Spare Parts System With Random Lead Times and Disruption Risks
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2018) Hekimoğlu, Mustafa; van der Laan, Ervin; Dekker, Rommert
Spare parts supply chains are highly dependent on the dynamics of their installed bases. A decreasing number of capital products in use increases the nonstationary supply-side risk especially towards the end-of-life of capital products. This supply-side risk appears to present itself through varying lead times coupled with supply disruptions. To model the nonstationary supply-side risk we consider an exogenous Markov chain that modulates random lead times and disruption probabilities. Assuming that order crossovers do not occur we prove the optimality of a state-dependent base stock policy. Later we conduct an impact study to understand the value of considering stochastic lead times and supply disruption risk in spare parts inventory control. Our results indicate that the coupled effect of random lead times and disruptions can be larger than the summation of individual effects even for moderate lead time variances. Also the effect of nonstationarity on total cost can be as large as the summation of all risk factors combined. In addition to this managerial insight we present a procedure for supply risk mitigation based on an empirical model and our mathematical model. Experiments on a real business case indicate that the procedure is capable of reducing costs while making the inventory system more prepared for disruptions. (C) 2018 Elsevier B.V.

A Multi-Objective Mathematical Model for the Industrial Hazardous Waste Location-Routing Problem
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2013) Samanlıoğlu, Funda
Industrial hazardous waste management involves the collection transportation treatment recycling and disposal of industrial hazardous materials that pose risk to their surroundings. In this paper a new multiobjective location-routing model is developed and implemented in the Marmara region of Turkey. The aim of the model is to help decision makers decide on locations of treatment centers utilizing different technologies routing different types of industrial hazardous wastes to compatible treatment centers locations of recycling centers and routing hazardous waste and waste residues to those centers and locations of disposal centers and routing waste residues there. In the mathematical model three criteria are considered: minimizing total cost which includes total transportation cost of hazardous materials and waste residues and fixed cost of establishing treatment disposal and recycling centers
