Uyar, Zeynep Aybüke Günekbay","doi":"10.54287/gujsa.1276486","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.54287/gujsa.1276486","url":null,"abstract":"Monte Carlo is a numerical computation algorithm that is widely used in many fields of science and is used to obtain numerical results with a large number of repeated random samplings. Radiation transport with Monte Carlo simulation continues to increase its popularity in the fields of radiation measurement. The high accuracy and precision measurement of radionuclide activity amounts in gamma-ray spectrometry depends on the efficiency calibration of the detector. Efficiency calibration is carried out in two ways, using certified reference materials, by experimental method or Monte Carlo simulation method. The experimental method is expensive, procedurally complex and time-consuming due to the supply of reference material. The use of the Monte Carlo technique in a reliable way without the need for a standard radioactive source in determining the detector efficiency is becoming common. The most critical step for accurate and precise results in getting the response of a detector with the Monte Carlo method is modeling the detector with its realistic dimensions. Another parameter as important as detector modeling is the number of histories in the simulation code examined in this study. The effect of the number of histories on efficiency was examined in detail using PHITS, GESPECOR and DETEFF Monte Carlo simulation codes. Since there is no definite number about this effect, which is important for obtaining meaningful and realistic results, the change in the efficiency value was examined by increasing the number of stories from 105 to 108. The results obtained in this work showed that at least 107 particle numbers should be used in all three programs where the uncertainty is below 1%. If the existing facilities are sufficient, it can be increased to 108s in case of having a more equipped and fast computer. However, going higher than this value does not make any sense as seen from the study.","PeriodicalId":134301,"journal":{"name":"Gazi University Journal of Science Part A: Engineering and Innovation","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124872732","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study is to investigate the in-field dose and out-of-field dose accuracy of Eclipse's analytic anisotropic algorithm (AAA) and pencil beam convolution (PBC) algorithms using TLDs. A tissue equivalent phantom containing a total of 21 measurement points at a depth of 5 cm from the anterior and posterior was created. Using Eclipse AAA and PBC algorithms in TPS, 100 MU for AP/PA fields and 95 cm source-skin distance (SSD) were planned. In-field measurement points including isocenter were 3, 5, 7 and 11 points for 3x3, 5x5, 7x7 and 10x10 cm2, respectively. Measuring points outside the field edge were 38, 36, 34 and 30 points for 3x3, 5x5, 7x7 and 10x10 cm2, respectively. In-field point dose values calculated by TPS for different fields were compared with TLD doses measured at the same location. The difference between in-field dose estimation and TLD measurements of both algorithms was generally below 1%. The difference between TPS and TLD was found to be 4.41% for the 10x10 cm2 irradiation field, due to the field edge at a distance of 5 cm from the isocenter. As the field size decreased, the out-of-field dose calculation performance of the AAA and PBC algorithms was adversely affected. For the 10x10 cm2 irradiation field, the TLD measurements and the out-of-field point dose difference of the PBC algorithm were found to be 39.40%. This difference was at most 12.06% for the AAA algorithm. The Eclipse TPS is good at calculating the in-field dose but underestimates the off-field dose. In out-of-field dose calculation, the AAA algorithm gives more accurate results than the PBC algorithm. Additionally, the smaller the field size, the worse the outfield dose accuracy. The use of in vivo dosimeters is recommended in order to estimate the out-of-field dose with great accuracy in radiotherapy.","PeriodicalId":134301,"journal":{"name":"Gazi University Journal of Science Part A: Engineering and Innovation","volume":"66 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128893974","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Various plots of the experimental I-V measurements with the forward voltage are wielded in order to determine the parameter Rs. The I-V properties of Ag/Perylene/n-Si SBD was evaluated at room temperature (RT) based on Thermionic-Emission (TE) model. We specified the Rs values using Ohm law, Cheungs’, and modified Norde functions. We compared the Rs values utilized various techniques. Modified Norde functions apply to the ln I-V graph's all forward voltage region. On the other hand, Cheung's approaches are just feasible in the non-linear section in the high voltage region. The Rs values obtained from various techniques are distinct and are dedicated in the table. The reason for this inconsistency is shown in our research. It is evident that the values of the Rs determined using various approaches are in good accordance with one another. The Ohm's law derived from sufficiently high forward voltages is the one among them that is the most straightforward, precise, and dependable. It was demonstrated by the I-V data that the dispersion of Rs is a key factor affecting the electrical properties of diodes.","PeriodicalId":134301,"journal":{"name":"Gazi University Journal of Science Part A: Engineering and Innovation","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130295158","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to remove Rs's influence on the observed C and G values, I corrected them. The observed high values of C/G measured at low frequencies result from the existence of interfacial states. There is evidence that while NA decreases exponentially with increasing frequency, B increases exponentially. A particular distribution of Nss density, polarization processes, and the existence of an interfacial layer can all contribute to explaining these characteristic features of them.

Risk analysis studies of these accidents are important. In this study, it was aimed to analyze the risk of Natech accidents for Türkiye. Statistical evaluation of Natech accidents was made through various databases for selecting the province and organization where the application will be made. Because of these evaluations, two exemplary gas storage organizations (Organization 1: includes 5 cylindrical tanks of the same volume, Organization 2: includes 4 cylindrical tanks of the same volume and 1 large volume spherical tank) were selected within the scope of the legislation in Erzurum, which stands out in terms of flood and lightning risk. Flood-triggered Natech accidents were analyzed using the preliminary hazard list and Fine-Kinney methods, and lightning-triggered Natech accidents were analyzed through the YILKOMER and RADSAN programs. For Organization 1 and Organization 2, the protection level was determined as 3 and 4, respectively, according to the effectiveness value. While 34 hazard effects were graded with the preliminary hazard list for Organization 1 and 22 hazard effects by Fine-Kinney; for Organization 2, hazard effects were graded 37 with the preliminary hazard list and 28 with Fine-Kinney. Because of the analyses carried out, Organization 2 was found to be more risky in terms of Natech accidents triggered by both lightning and flooding. It can be said that this situation is because the relevant organization is located in a more congested area and within the organized industry, and that it contains more voluminous tanks. It is important that emergency plans be prepared by considering the Natech risks, based on the characteristics of the industrial facility and the type of natural disaster in the region.","PeriodicalId":134301,"journal":{"name":"Gazi University Journal of Science Part A: Engineering and Innovation","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114448658","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
