  • Revival of the Collective Memory with the Help of Cartographic Materials and Gis

Although it is known that in the 1910s, tramlines were used in Mersin and there were a number of piers used for various purposes, the route of the respective tramlines and the location of the piers were roughly drawn in several studies based on the oral history studies. In this context, the aim of this study is to ascertain the route of the tramlines and location of the piers by using historical cartographic materials that are important sources of urban and regional historical analysis. Based on two specific historical maps of Mersin city, the route of the tramlines and location of the piers have been identified together with the historical buildings by using georeferencing tools available in Free and Open Source Software for GIS. Keywords: Urban History, Historical Maps, Collective Memory, Free and Open Source Software for GIS INTRODUCTION Until the mid 19th century, Mersin was mainly known for its piers and docks rather than being a emerging center of settlement unit.

MULTIOBJECTIVE RESERVOIR OPTIMIZATION USING GENETIC ALGORITHM A Thesis presented in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Master of Science National Center for Computational Hydroscience and Engineering The University Of Mississippi by SEYMA SEHRIBAN TIRYAKIOGLU May 2018 Copyright © 2018 Seyma S Tiryakioglu All rights reserved ABSTRACT This thesis investigates the optimization of energy generation in a multipurpose reservoir. The objective functions and the constraints for the multiobjective optimization of reservoir operation for maximization of energy production involve the solution of a set of nonlinear equations governing pressure flow in penstock and turbine system and the hydropower generation. The hydropower generation also requires operational rules that define how the reservoir storage volume must be used at different storage levels. For these reasons, the present thesis uses genetic algorithm (GA) functions available in Matlab to perform the multiobjective optimization of hydropower energy production. Multiobjective optimization is based on two objective functions: maximization of total energy production over a specified number of years for which observed data is available, and maximization of annual firm energy production for individual years.
