Through bifurcation diagrams and Lyapunov exponent spectra, it has been determined that the IFKC system exhibits rich dynamics. Subsequently, using the Proportional Tilt Integral Derivative (P-TID) control method, synchronization of two IFKC chaotic systems with different initial values has been achieved. Upon examination of the obtained simulation results, it has been demonstrated that the identified IFKC chaotic system and the P-TID controller can be effectively utilized for secure communication.","PeriodicalId":472387,"journal":{"name":"Academic Platform Journal of Engineering and Smart Systems","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136279710","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 the public hospitals in healthcare system of Türkiye, patients requiring home healthcare are assigned to the hospital that serves their place of residence. This can cause the workload of hospitals to become unbalanced in terms of the time needed for both traveling and operation. The aim of this paper is to generate routes with a balanced workload for hospitals, giving consideration to the time windows of patients and the working hours of health workers. Firstly, we construct a mathematical model which can solve toy and small-scale problems whilst taking into account the importance of a balanced workload. Then, a Tabu Search with a Variable Neighborhood Search (TS-VNS) algorithm is developed to solve large-scale problems. The performance of the TS-VNS algorithm is tested by comparing the results of the mathematical model with the generated test problems at a small scale. Additionally, large-scale test problems from the literature are sourced for the problem and solved by the TS-VNS algorithm. The results demonstrate the efficiency of the TS-VNS algorithm.","PeriodicalId":472387,"journal":{"name":"Academic Platform Journal of Engineering and Smart Systems","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136271945","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}

Mamdani and Sugeno methods were applied in the fuzzy logic models. In addition, a regression analysis was carried out in order to compare these two methods. In the models, water/cement ratio and injection pressure were the input variables, and unconfined compressive strength was the output variable. The dataset includes 427 samples, which were experimentally injected with microfine cement. Predictions for unconfined compressive strength were obtained by creating membership functions and rule base for each input (predictive) parameter in fuzzy logic models. The coefficient of determination (R2) and Mean Square Error (MSE) were used as criteria for evaluating the performance of the developed models. The results suggested that the three applied models (i.e. Mamdani, Sugeno and regression) provided statistically significant results, and these methods could be used in the future prediction-based studies. The results showed that Sugeno model provided the best performance for predicting unconfined compressive strength. It was followed by Mamdani and Regression models, respectively. This study has suggested that the fuzzy logic method can be an alternative to the regression method which traditionally has been used in prediction process.","PeriodicalId":472387,"journal":{"name":"Academic Platform Journal of Engineering and Smart Systems","volume":"123 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135717751","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}
