The intensity of light and the width of the spectral curve of the emission depend on the value of the current. As the current increases, the amplification factor of the emission increases. When the current increases to a certain value, the laser effect occurs, that is, the emission becomes coherent. This minimum value of the current corresponding to the onset of coherent generation at the junction is called the threshold current. The article shows that the threshold current density in alloy-doped lasers is approximately three times smaller than the threshold current density of lasers obtained by diffusion at room temperature.</p> 2025-06-20T00:00:00+03:00 Copyright (c) 2025 ARCENG (INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ARCHITECTURE AND ENGINEERING) ISSN: 2822-6895 https://e-arceng.com/index.php/arceng/article/view/52 Application of Physics Laboratories in the Electronic Learning Environment 2025-06-02T16:24:20+03:00 Nailə Adəm QARDAŞBƏYOVA naileqardashbeyova@gmail.com <p>Electronic learning technologies have begun to play an important role in the education system in modern times.

Earthquakes can cause various harmful effects on both living and non-living entities. These statistics indicate a significant risk for people living in our country. After an earthquake, survivors are often found in natural voids within damaged or collapsed buildings. The chances of survival for disaster victims decrease rapidly over time. In urban search and rescue operations, the first 72 hours—also known as the “golden hours”—are the most critical.</span></p> <p><span lang="EN-US">As a team, our experience during the February 6th earthquake showed us how crucial it is to reach people trapped under debris as quickly as possible. This painful experience made us realize the absence of a system that could save lives in emergencies. After an earthquake, it is vital for search and rescue teams to access information such as the trapped individuals' phone numbers, emergency contacts, chronic illnesses, necessary medications, the floor and apartment they live in, and the building layout as soon as possible. The earlier the rescue efforts begin from the first minute, the more lives can be saved from under the rubble.</span></p> <p><span lang="EN-US">In this project, we have designed an artificial intelligence-based system that allows immediate access to people and their information in the building/house during an earthquake with the press of a single button.</span></p> <p><span lang="EN-US">At the end of the post-earthquake search phase, rescue operations begin. The sooner the search process is completed, the faster the rescue operations can start. To facilitate this, we used the MPU6050 accelerometer in our system. This sensor detects earthquakes and, through software we developed, transmits the data via a portable modem to a locally and nationally developed panel that we coded ourselves.</span></p> <p><span lang="EN-US">The data includes the floor and side of the building where the person is located, their phone numbers, health status, medications they use regularly, and emergency contact numbers. Authorized personnel who log into the panel can download this information, along with the pre-uploaded building layout and location details, with a single click. This data is then directed to the search and rescue team, allowing them to start the rescue process more quickly.</span></p> 2025-06-20T00:00:00+03:00 Copyright (c) 2025 ARCENG (INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ARCHITECTURE AND ENGINEERING) ISSN: 2822-6895 https://e-arceng.com/index.php/arceng/article/view/58 Evaluation and Beneficiation Opportunities of Pyrophyllite Ore (Pütürge-Malatya) 2025-06-14T10:30:10+03:00 Mustafa BİRİNCİ mustafa.birinci@inonu.edu.tr <p>Pyrophyllite, a hydrated aluminum silicate mineral (Al<sub>2</sub>Si<sub>4</sub>O<sub>10</sub>(OH)<sub>2</sub>) is industrially valuable due to its high refractoriness, chemical inertness, and low thermal expansion. It finds widespread use in various industries such as white cement, ceramics, refractories, plastics, paints, rubber, and cosmetics. Particularly in the ceramics industry, it is favored as a substitute for clay and feldspar due to its minimal volumetric changes during firing and high-temperature resistance. The commercial viability of pyrophyllite ore is largely contingent upon its purity, mineralogical composition, and particle size. Raw pyrophyllite ores frequently occur in association with other minerals, including quartz, mica, chlorite, and feldspar. These impurities invariably diminish the industrial utility of pyrophyllite, thereby underscoring the critical importance of beneficiation processes. The escalating demand for pyrophyllite in industrial applications necessitates the development of effective and economic beneficiation techniques to yield high-purity products with desired characteristics. Among these techniques, attrition scrubbing combined with classification, leveraging pyrophyllite's low hardness and brittleness, and flotation, exploiting its natural hydrophobic properties, have emerged as prominent methods. In this study, a pyrophyllite ore characterized by a relatively low alumina content (20.64% Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>) and high silica content (73.41% SiO<sub>2</sub>), obtained from the Pütürge (Malatya) pyrophyllite deposit, was subjected to beneficiation through attrition scrubbing+sieving and flotation. The beneficiation result from attrition scrubbing+sieving yielded a product with 29.33% Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> and 61.85% SiO<sub>2</sub> at a particle size of -75 µm. Also, flotation beneficiation resulted in a pyrophyllite concentrate containing 27.01% Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> and 65.56% SiO<sub>2</sub> with a particle size of -150 µm.</p> 2025-06-20T00:00:00+03:00 Copyright (c) 2025 ARCENG (INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ARCHITECTURE AND ENGINEERING) ISSN: 2822-6895 https://e-arceng.com/index.php/arceng/article/view/57 Applicability of Drilling and Blasting Method in Building Demolition; integration of Mining Engineering Techniques into the Construction Sector 2025-06-14T10:28:48+03:00 Engin ÖZDEMİR ozdemir.engin@inonu.edu.tr <p>Buildings may need to be demolished due to reasons such as completing their economic lifespan, natural disasters, or urban renewal projects. Ensuring that demolition is carried out safely and in an environmentally responsible manner is crucial for both public health and sustainable development. This study focuses on the <strong>controlled demolition using explosives</strong>, a technique commonly employed in demolishing large and complex structures. The method involves strategically placing explosives on the structural elements of the building to induce a controlled collapse. Proper selection of explosives, borehole design, charge amount, and detonation sequence are essential parameters for the success of this method. The study also examines potential <strong>environmental impacts</strong> during demolition, including <strong>projectile debris</strong><strong>, air blast (noise), ground vibration, </strong>and<strong> dust</strong> emissions. The devastating earthquakes centered in Kahramanmaraş on February 6, 2023, have emphasized the need for safe demolition methods, particularly for heavily damaged structures. In this context, the study outlines the planning and execution steps of explosive demolition and discusses critical safety and environmental considerations.</p> 2025-06-20T00:00:00+03:00 Copyright (c) 2025 ARCENG (INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ARCHITECTURE AND ENGINEERING) ISSN: 2822-6895 https://e-arceng.com/index.php/arceng/article/view/60 Hawk Eye 2025-06-23T22:18:42+03:00 Muhammed Emir ÜNALAN emirunalan44@gmail.com Murat CANPOLAT murkar444@gmail.com Güneş CANPOLAT canpolatguness@gmail.com <p style="text-align: justify; margin: 6.0pt 0cm 6.0pt 0cm;">When a person's visual impairment cannot be corrected through glasses, contact lenses, surgery, or medication, and when their level of vision is extremely low or entirely absent, this condition is referred to as <strong>low vision or blindness</strong>. Visually impaired individuals are not to be pitied or seen as helpless. For centuries, people with visual impairments have been marginalized, socially isolated, and deprived of both material and emotional support, often ignored and overlooked by society. They have long been seen as a "bleeding wound" of the community.</p> <p style="text-align: justify; margin: 6.0pt 0cm 6.0pt 0cm;">However, through financial and social support programs, our government has taken educational and rehabilitative measures to support visually impaired individuals. As a result, visual impairment is no longer perceived as a chronic social issue.</p> <p style="text-align: justify; margin: 6.0pt 0cm 6.0pt 0cm;">In our project, a camera placed in a box mounted on the front of a bicycle captures real-time video. Using custom-developed code, objects in the image are detected, and their distances are measured.
