Description: This proposal supports the collaboration of Drs. T.W. Kerlin and B.R. Upadhyaya of the University of Tennessee (UT) and Dr. Ozer Ciftcioglu of Istanbul Technical University (ITU) in Turkey. The expected theoretical and implementable results of this collaboration should yield new information on: 1) behavior of reactor process signals; 2) cause of variations in plant signatures; 3) use of signal fluctuating components for instrument fault monitoring; and 4) use of non-invasive tests for component surveillance and preventive maintenance. The proposed research will be carried out at both UT and ITU. Dr. Ciftcioglu is an expert in the area of alarm reliability algorithms for stochastic processes whose expertise will integrate well with activities already underway at UT involving instrument calibration verification and on-line monitoring of smart sensors. The UT scientists will visit the facilities at ITU and the ITU participants will visit UT. Additionally, a four-day workshop will be held in Istanbul in order to exchange information. Scope: This project in engineering systems will enable leading experts in the United States and Turkey to combine complementary talents and pool research resources in areas of strong mutual interest and competence. Dr. Ciftcioglu will have an opportunity to become familiar with research techniques and facilities at UT and, likewise, Drs. Kerlin and Upadhyaya will benefit from the time spent in Istanbul. Therefore, this proposal fulfills objectives of the Science in Developing Countries Program in its exchange and transfer of scientific knowledge through an international collaboration.

描述：该建议支持DRS的合作。 T.W. Kerlin和B.R.田纳西大学（UT）的Upadhyaya和土耳其伊斯坦布尔技术大学（ITU）的Ozer Ciftcioglu博士。 此协作的预期理论和可实施结果应产生有关：1）反应堆过程信号的行为； 2）植物特征的变化原因； 3）使用信号波动组件进行仪器故障监测； 4）使用非侵入性测试进行组件监视和预防性维护。拟议的研究将在UT和ITU进行。 Ciftcioglu博士是随机过程的警报可靠性算法领域的专家，其专业知识将与已在UT的活动中良好整合，其中涉及仪器校准验证和对智能传感器的在线监视。 UT科学家将访问ITU的设施，ITU参与者将访问UT。 此外，为了交换信息，将在伊斯坦布尔举行为期四天的研讨会。 范围：工程系统中的这个项目将使美国和土耳其的领先专家能够在浓厚的共同利益和能力领域结合互补的才能和泳池研究资源。 Ciftcioglu博士将有机会熟悉UT和DRS博士的研究技术和设施。 Kerlin和Upadhyaya将从伊斯坦布尔度过的时间中受益。 因此，该提案实现了发展中国家科学的目标，以通过国际合作进行交流和科学知识转移。
