Troubleshooting Ink Jet Printing Of Cotton Substrates Using A Knowledge-based Expert System

(Doktora) -- İstanbul Teknik Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 2012(PhD) -- İstanbul Technical University, Institute of Science and Technology, 2012Bu çalışmada, pamuklu kumaşların ink jet baskısında karşılaşılan hataların belirlenmesi ve çözülmesine yönelik uzman sistem geliştirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla literatür detaylı olarak taranmış, bununla birlikte baskıda uzman kişilerle de tartışılarak ink jet baskıda sık karşılaşılan on üç hata belirlenmiştir. Bunlar, kafa sürtmesi, renksiz bölge, yanlış renkli bölge mürekkep damlası(mürekkep lekesi), enine çizgilenme, çarpıklık, boya akması, desen kayması, kumaş sararması, düşük sürtme haslığı, düşük yıkama haslığı, renk şiddeti farklılığı/ton farklılığı, düşük keskinlik, beyaz veya solgun bölge olarak adlandırılmıştır. Daha sonra bu hataların nedeni olabilecek altmış bir adet sebep, detaylı literatür taraması ve yine uzman kişilerle yapılan görüşmeler sonunda belirlenmiştir. Bu hatalarla sebepler arasındaki ilişkiyi belirleyebilmek amacıyla uzmanlara sormak üzere anket hazırlanmıştır. Ankete katılan uzmanların her bir hata ile her bir sebebin ilişkisini beşli likert skalası kullanarak belirlemeleri istenmiştir. Ankete katılan bütün uzmanların cevap sayıları dikkate alınarak her bir hata ve altmış bir sebep arasında sayısal bir ilişki kurulabilmesi amacıyla çeşitli istatistik yöntemlerinden yararlanılmıştır. Sonuç olarak, sisteme entegre edilen çıkarım motorunun hataların sebeplerini ortak sebeplerden başlayarak belirlemesiyle iyi bir performans ortaya koymuştur. Ayrıca, sistem ink jet baskıda karşılaşılan problemlerin çözümünde iyi bir araç olarak kullanılabileceği gösterilmiştir. Bununla birlikte, yapılan anket değerlendirmeleri sonucunda, ankete katılan uzmanların ortak paydada da buluşamadığı ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu sebeple böyle bir sistemin geliştirilmesi hatalara objektif bir çözüm sunabilmesi açısından önemlidir. Ayrıca sistem, bu alanda yeni çalışmaya başlayanlar için iyi bir başvuru kaynağı ve eğitim aracı olarak da kullanılabilmektedir. Bundan sonraki aşamalarda, sistemin gerçek üretim hatalarıyla denemeleri yapılarak, uzman kişilerin hatayı çözerken ortaya koydukları yaklaşımla karşılaştırılmasının yapılması gerekmektedir. Bu şekilde, üretim esnasında daha efektif kullanılabilen bir başvuru kaynağı olarak da kullanılabilecektir.In this study, it is aimed to develop an expert system for troubleshooting of faults encountered in ink jet printing of cotton substrates. The possible faults may be observed during ink jet printing, prior to printing, such as fabric production or preparation, and after printing, such as fixation. Hence, at the analysis and selection of the most encountered faults in ink jet printing, the processes, which start with cotton production and end at fixation, are examined. After the detailed review of the literature and interviews with the experts, thirteen symptoms are selected as the most encountered problems in ink jet printing of cotton substrates. In addition, sixty-one causes are suggested as the possible causes of thirteen symptoms. Fifteen experts are asked to match each symptoms with sixty-one causes by using a five point likert scale, including most likely, likely, not sure, least likely and not related. In addition, the knowledge acquired from the survey and literature is embodied to the system. A different approach is adopted for the inference of the system in order to solve the problems that are selected by the users of software. The system demonstrates a good performance with embodied inference engine, which starts to solve problem from the common cause in the case of multiple selection of the faults. Moreover, the system shows that, it can be used as a tool for troubleshooting of ink jet printing of the cotton substrates. In addition, it is also possible to use the system as a training tool for the people who are new at ink jet printing.DoktoraPh

Advances in raw material industries for sustainable development goals

"""Advances in Raw Material Industries for Sustainable Development Goals"" presents the results of joint scientific research conducted in the context of the Russian-German Raw Materials Forum. Today Russia and Germany are exploring various forms of cooperation in the field of mining, geology, mineralogy, mechanical engineering and energy. Russia and Germany are equally interested in expanding cooperation and modernizing the economy in terms of sustainable development. The main theme of this article collection is connected with existing business ventures and ideas from both Russia and Germany. In this book the authors regard complex processes in mining industry from various points of view, including: - modern technologies in prospecting, exploration and development of mineral resources - progressive methods of natural and industrial mineral raw materials processing - energy technologies and digital technologies for sustainable development - cutting-edge technologies and innovations in the oil and gas industry. Working with young researchers, supporting their individual professional development and creating conditions for their mobility and scientific cooperation are essential parts of Russian-German Raw Materials Forum founded in Dresden 13 years ago. This collection represents both willingness of young researchers to be involved in large-scale international projects like Russian-German Raw Material Forum and the results of their long and thorough work in the promising areas of cooperation between Russia and Germany.

Improving Energy Efficiency through Data-Driven Modeling, Simulation and Optimization

In October 2014, the EU leaders agreed upon three key targets for the year 2030: a reduction by at least 40% in greenhouse gas emissions, savings of at least 27% for renewable energy, and improvements by at least 27% in energy efficiency. The increase in computational power combined with advanced modeling and simulation tools makes it possible to derive new technological solutions that can enhance the energy efficiency of systems and that can reduce the ecological footprint. This book compiles 10 novel research works from a Special Issue that was focused on data-driven approaches, machine learning, or artificial intelligence for the modeling, simulation, and optimization of energy systems
