(Konya Technical University Faculty of Architecture and Design, 2023) Kemec, Serkan; Salar, Hassan Abdalkarim
Urban green areas are open spaces in urban areas that are mainly covered by vegetation. They can be public or private urban green spaces that include parks, community gardens, forests, and nature reserves. Parks are an important component of urban quality of life if they are well designed and accessible. Accessible parks contribute to physical activity among urban residents. Therefore, the objective of the study was to identify the most significant main accessibility factors that discourage the use of public urban green areas, and examine the extent to which they influence the use of green areas in residential areas of the city of Erbil. This study was conducted in 2017 and 2020 to measure the accessibility of green spaces using network analysis with GIS for Erbil city. The present study represents the first known investigation regarding the accessibility of public green spaces within the city of Erbil. The results show that for community parks, 68% of the population has access with a travel time of 5 minutes, 99% of the population has access with a travel time of 10 minutes, and 100% of the population has access with a travel time of 15 minutes. For district parks, 70% of the population had access with 5 minute drive time. With 10-minute drive time, 96% of the population had access and 100% of the population had access with 15-minute drive time. For neighborhood parks, the results show that 43% of the population had access with 5-minute walk and, 71% of the population had access with 10-minute walk. At 15-minute walk time, 80% of Erbil residents had access to neighborhood parks. Mini parks were accessed by 22% of the population with a 5 minute walk and they were accessed by 52% of the population with a 10 minute walk. With a 15 minute walk, mini parks were accessible to 70% of the population.

(Konya Technical University, 2019) Hızarcı, Berkan; Kiral, Zeki
Research and development of structural response control systems are animportant area of interest for researchers. Under the different static anddynamic loads, it has become a necessity to use structural control systems inorder to reduce the vibration response of engineering structures. Seriousefforts have been made to transform the structural response control conceptinto a viable technology. Innovative active vibration control systems are neededto improve the structural dynamic behavior of structures used in differentoperating environments or operational processes. In this regard, the idea ofreducing the vibrations of structures using air jet pulses remains to beinvestigated and implemented. In this study, the response patterns of the samplestructure and vibration control via air jet pulses under harmonic baseexcitation were examined. Harmonic base excitation was given around the firstnatural frequency at which the structure has the highest displacement.State-feedback control method was used for vibration control of the structure.The forces required for vibration control of the sample structure were calculated.In addition, with the help of Matlab Simscape Multibody, physical modeling ofthe system and visualization of the vibration were provided. The results werecompared and it was observed that the vibration of the structure can be dampedvia proposed system. Finally, the nozzle design was conducted to providecontrol forces with air jet impulses to the system.
Adventure of Architecture Example of Housing and Housing Areas
(Konya Technical University Faculty of Architecture and Design, 2013) Asasoğlu, Ali
Housing and the concept of space associated with this requirement are among the initial attitudes towards the human reign over the nature. The dawn of the structured environment found life with this approach within the nature. Both, housing and the housing design process overlap with the historical development of modern man, and is covered within the concept of architecture today. The contribution made by culture within this period is yet another undeniable fact. While the interaction between architecture and culture are moving forward thereby leaving traces in every era throughout the history, the culture of housing and housing design exhibits a parallel attitude which is a subsidiary, yet a highly title with a close human relationship. Culture and architecture are two closely interacting aspects which are drawing the borders of each other from time to time, hinting at quality and quantity, and evaluating such. Quite naturally, the structure which is in a deep relationship with mankind is in an exchange with all physical, social and economic qualities of the human. These qualities are fundamental determinants of the concept of culture as a human trait. The process of architecture which is usually defined as a sequence of eras that involve social movements, impulses and trends, sometimes kept moving ahead in the pursuit of individual leadership and styles. The concerns regarding the solution of space problems, setting up /designing venues and arranging the environment in line with the requirements brought up increasingly complex issues and stacks of solutions which follow such problems. It is this dynamic structure which forms the basis of the architectural problem to date. Starting with the housing and residential concepts, this study brings a critical view on the application samples and methods of the relationship between architecture and culture in terms of our country in particular while putting emphasis on the architectural venture of the recent era and the underlying improvements. Instead of seeking an answer to these issues, the study, which summarizes the venture of architecture in the overall sense and focuses specifically on the issues regarding the formation of housing and housing sites, discusses the origin of the very problem. Raising awareness as the most important step of living in qualified urban environments and owning quality residential areas is also emphasized with the respective examples.

(Konya Technical University, 2021) Çopur, Engin Hasan
Durum Değişkenine Bağlı Riccati Denklemi (DDRD) tekniği, verilen ikinci dereceden bir maliyet fonksiyonunu en aza indirecek şekilde doğrusal olmayan bir sistem sınıfı için optimale yakın bir kontrol kanunu sağlar. Doğrusal olmayan sistem (DOS) matrisleri her zaman anında hesaplanıp, DOS doğrusal ve zamanla değişmeyen bir sistem olarak ele alınabilir ve ilgili optimal kontrol problemi her anda Doğrusal Kuadratik Regülatör (DKR) problemi olarak tanımlanabilir. Bu nedenle, DKR'nin ağırlık matrisleri, DDRD denetleyicisi vasıtasıyla kapalı çevrim sistemin geçici zaman cevabını şekillendirmede önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Bu çalışmada, üç serbestlik dereceli (3-SD) deney helikopterinin pozisyon kontrolü için DDRD tabanlı bir optimal kontrolcü tasarlandı. Deneyler, helikopterin geçici zaman cevabı üzerindeki etkilerini değerlendirilmek için farklı ağırlık matrisleriyle tekrarlandı. Deneylerin ilk aşamasında, ağırlık matrisleri sabit gerçek elemanlı köşegen matris olarak seçildi. DDRD metoduyla kontrol edilen helikopterin durumlarıyla ilişkili köşegen elemanlar, bu durumların geçici zaman cevaplarını nasıl etkilediğini incelemek için değiştirildi. İkinci aşamada, ağırlık matrisleri durum bağımlı olarak seçildi. Her iki aşamadaki deneysel sonuçların kıyaslaması, durum bağımlı ağırlık matrislerinin yerleşme zamanı ve kalıcı durum hatası gibi geçici zaman cevabının özelliklerini iyileştirme yeteneğine daha fazla sahip olduklarını ortaya çıkartmaktadır.

Analysis of Perceptions of Driver Abilities and Behaviors in Urban Transportation With Respect To Gender Identity
(Konya Technical University Faculty of Architecture and Design, 2021) Özkazanç, Seher
Purpose Gender inequality is a significant social problem of urban transportation planning. In this context, the main purpose of this study is to determine the stereotypes about the genders of drivers in Turkey. Additionally, the study also aims to reveal the relationship between the talents and behaviors of drivers and gender perceptions. Design/Methodology/Approach This study used a hybrid model which allows the use of qualitative and quantitative methods together. The survey method and focus group meetings were utilized at the stage of data collection. In the study, the quota sampling method was applied. The sample consisted of 1239 participants who lived in the province of Konya in Turkey, had a driver's license, drove more than 10 minutes a day and were between 18 and 68 years old. The questionnaires presented to the participants consisted of three parts. The first part included items on the demographic structure of the sample and driving information, the second part included the female driver evaluation form, and the third part included the male driver evaluation form. These driver evaluation forms were prepared as Likert-type scales in the form of a 37-item sets of perception/bias created by benefiting from the literature and focus group interviews. Findings Men are perceived more positively in terms of vehicle maintenance and driving ability. It is stated that female drivers have more positive driving behaviors than male drivers. The participants who are female, university graduates or whose spouse drives the car have biases that are significantly free from gendered role attitudes. Research Limitations/Implications The fact that the study was conducted only in a sample from Konya and the small number of focus groups that were interviewed constituted the limitations of the study. Social/Practical Implications Gender inequality is a significant social problem of urban transportation planning. To achieve social integration and utilize urban services more effectively, it is needed to try to eliminate prejudices/negative perceptions towards gender in traffic. Originality/Value This study, where determination of stereotypes regarding the gender of drivers and driver perceptions were focused on, is significant especially in terms of the literature in Turkish and has a unique value.

(Konya Technical University, 2021) Elmas, Sinem; Genceli Güner, Fatma Elif
Psoriasis is an itchy and non-contagious skin disease. Its treatment method varies according to the severity of the disease. In oral treatments used in heavy stages, dissolution behavior is a vital characterization parameter for evaluating cocrystal, understanding dissolution mechanism, and predicting bioavailability of the drug. In this study, dissolution of cocrystals used in psoriasis was investigated. Effect of (i) different shapes, (ii) sizes, and (iii) grinding of cocrystals on the dissolution were considered with ultraviolet-visible (UV/Vis) spectroscopy. Results show that different physical properties and grinding can significantly increase the dissolution of cocrystals.

(Konya Technical University Faculty of Architecture and Design, 2021) Özkan, Doruk Görkem; Akyol, Duygu
Purpose The current article aimed to investigate the effects of functional, social, and perceptual performance dimensions of coastal open place environmental attributes on place satisfaction. In this context, it aimed to develop suggestions for increasing the place performance levels in order to improve the place satisfaction. Design/Methodology/Approach The general framework of the research design was determined by evaluating the functional, social and perceptual features of the place by the users (using post-occupancy evaluation method) and determining the place performance and place satisfaction. Survey questions within this scope; It is structured under two main headings: functional, social and perceptual features of the place and place satisfaction. Each item was measured on a 5-point Likert scale (1 = strongly disagree, 5 = strongly agree). Participants were randomly selected from the Arsin coastal park users. The surveys were conducted with 243 people on weekdays and weekends. Findings The study findings demonstrated that there was a positive and significant correlation between the spatial performance level and place satisfaction using the developed model. It was observed that the environmental factors that affected the place satisfaction included functional, social, and perceptual factors, respectively. It was determined that socio-demographic factors did not affect place satisfaction, while the frequency of occupancy had a positive impact on place satisfaction. Research Limitations/Implications The present study focused on the functional, social, and perceptual dimensions of environmental properties. Thus, considering the diversity of environmental properties, it could not be claimed that the present study methodology and findings revealed all environmental dimensions that affect satisfaction. Social and Practical Implications In the present study, spatial performance data were obtained with post-occupancy evaluation and the factors that affected the satisfaction levels with Arsin Coastal Park (ACP) were investigated. Thus, the present study findings could be considered as very important for urban designers, planners, and administrators. Originality/Value There are studies in the literature that evaluated urban open place satisfaction. However, there are no studies that investigated the effects of open place performance criteria on place satisfaction using the post-occupancy evaluation (POE) method. Keywords: Urban open place, place attributes, place satisfaction, post-occupancy evaluation
Analytic Hierarchy Process (ahp) as an Assessment Approach for Architectural Design: Case Study of Architectural Design Studio
(Konya Technical University Faculty of Architecture and Design, 2018) Harputlugil, Timuçin
Architectural design is an effective decision-making activity based on problem solving. Within this context, assessment of architectural design is complex. This complexity is not based on content and volume of problems, but also heterogeneity and uncertainty of information provided for assessment, subjective approaches, and a large number of the criterion for assessment. To solve the problems stated, within the content of this article, assessment methodology based on Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) – a Multi Criteria Decision Making(MCDM) methodology- supporting an effective comparative analysis among the alternative projects based on determined criterion is applied. The methodology is implemented with a case study of one of the design studios of Çankaya University with observation, research and assessment of the whole education term.The outcomes of the AHP-based approach suggested by the research are consistent with those obtained by traditional assessment methods, since it has been seen that this approach can provide numerical results that are comparable, measurable, gradable, consistent and can be reported separately for each assessor. However, it has also been found that the AHP-based method is suitable for evaluating only a limited number of projects. There is a possibility that the evaluation period can be longer, and the process may be somewhat tedious if the number of projects increases. With the research, and by setting thresholds levels for evaluation, it has become clear that successful and unsuccessful projects can be separated for achievement/competence. Consequently, it has been observed that the approach has considerable potentials to be further developed to evaluate architectural projects comparatively, especially for architectural students projects, and other architectural projects such as architectural design competitions.
Analyzing Fringe Belt Phenomenon in the Historico – Geographical Structure of Milan, Italy
(Konya Technical University Faculty of Architecture and Design, 2018) Karaulan, Dzheylan Safet; Kubat, Ayşe Sema
The object of this paper is to identify the specific land use patterns in relation to a general framework of the fringe belts formation and modification through the urban expansion of Milan, a city with solid Italian planning tradition, by defining strong characteristics and land use transformations through comparative map analysis in a consistent timeline period. Adapting the study of fringe belts, as signatures of the pulsations of urban growth, and a reflection of urban space needs beyond those of the residential and retail sectors, is pertinent as it contributes to understand each phase of city alteration and urban growth and relate them to economic and political forces linked to the contemporary development of metropolitan areas. Applied adequately, fringe belt studies have been taken in different parts of Europe, but few have been done in Italy. This research, as a comparative study of superposition data approach, has aimed to verify the true development pattern of a city with dynamic typo-morphological transitions, with powerful industrial and service sector shifts recently, strictly reflecting on the shaping of the overall urbanized territory.A general study of the urban evolution has been undertaken and development of the municipality has been observed with a focus on defining land use maps, and obtaining a comparative data analyzes by overlapping and tracking land use transformations and expounding fringe belt modifications through different expansion periods of the urban territory. In the contemporary city, fringe belts can play crucial role as vast green open spaces for recreation and leisure, natural boundaries from harmful industrial surroundings, as well as ecological corridors and mediums for natural systems maintenance and natural remedy to improve the quality of life and provide healthier environments for the overall urban systems.Adapting the study of fringe belts in a regulated conceptual framework, and referring them into the historico-geographical structure of the urban development could lead up to adequate planning and urban design strategies that aim to improve the quality of life in contemporary urban landscapes.
Analyzing the Concept of Place Attachment in the Context of Spatıal Factors: Kuzguncuk, Istanbul
(Konya Technical University Faculty of Architecture and Design, 2017) Darby, Dilek Özdemir; Özata, Tuğçe
In contemporary globalised cities it has become increasingly important, for those of us who live in monotonous so-called cloned-environments, to find a sense of place we can identify with. When ties between inhabitants and places are disrupted, people are estranged from their neighbourhoods. As a result, not only people’s relations with places are harmed, but also their social relations are affected, leading to isolation, alienation and socio-economic disruption.The causes of these relations are analysed through the concept of place attachment. Since the 1970s, research on place attachment has grown considerably. These studies are mostly focused on sense awareness and affectiveness, with the physical attributes of places accorded lesser attention (Lewicka, 2011). In a similar vein Christopher Alexander (et al, 1977) has asserted that, when studying place attachment, influences associated with human feelings only comprise ten percent of total influences, while the rest derive from the physical characteristics of places. And yet these are the least examined objects of study.In this context, the aim of this paper is to examine more closely the spatial qualities of places in the formation of place attachment. For the study, a long-established neighbourhood of Istanbul, Kuzguncuk, has been chosen to analyse the works of Christopher Alexander, Kevin Lynch, Jane Jacobs and John Montgomery. As a result, a matrix showing the spatial/physical qualities which have allowed the inhabitants of Kuzguncuk to develop a stronger attachment to their neighbourhood will be presented.
An Anatolian City: a Research on Cinema Culture and Movie Theatres in Eskisehir
(Konya Technical University Faculty of Architecture and Design, 2018) Üstün, Berna
Not only physical presences, but also histories and memories of the cities transform. The changes in the built environments result in the erasure of past records from urban space as well as from the minds of urban dwellers. Photographs and movies record the past and document the life and culture in the built environment. Movie theaters are important as they are the sites of meanings and memories of the past. First movie theaters were built after cinema was embraced by urban dwellers as a cultural activity and a realm of socialization. In order to be accessible by citizens, movie theaters were positioned at the centers of the cities as new social and public spaces. In Turkey, cinema appeared as an institution after the republic was established, spread in 1940s, and became a lifestyle and a means of socialization in 1960s. Pioneering steps of the cinema culture took place in Istanbul and soon spread primarily in big cities such as Ankara, Adana, Izmir, and Eskisehir. Eskisehir also met cinema culture in the republican period. As cinema became a popular means of socialization, the number of movie theaters including open air theaters raised up to 25 in the most vivid period. The advent and expansion of TV in 1970s and video in 1980s, however, undermined the cinema culture. In the later years, the cinema culture which existed in many independent movie theaters spread in various parts of the city transformed into the smaller multi-movie-theaters in sterile spaces, i.e. shopping malls, as a part of shopping and dining culture. The movie theaters were not able to resist capitalism, and closed down one by one, and were erased from the urban space as well as from the memories of the citizens. This research aims at exploring and documenting the transformation of Eskisehir’s independent movie theater buildings, which were considered as spaces of socialization for many years in the modernization process of the republican period.

(Konya Technical University, 2019) Taşkın, Çağın; Kiliç, Ali; Kapucu, Sadettin
In this study, analternative input shaping method is proposed to reduce residual vibration tothe pulse width modulation delivered flexible systems. An input shaping methodis proposed which works robust even system parameters such as system naturalfrequency and damping ratio are not known or wrongly estimated. It is possibleto generate unity magnitude input shaper with high number of pulses within thismethod. This input shaper can eliminate or reduce residual vibration. Timelocations have an importance on performance of input shaping techniques. Timelocations of impulses are found by intersection points of reference motionprofile and triangle wave. This proposed method is compared with well-knownzero vibration method, performance characteristics of proposed input shapingtechnique and diagrams about the system response are demonstrated. Furthermore,it’s shown that proposed input shaping method works robustly even travellingtime is reduced.
