AKSARAY

In the avalanche simulator, the visitor starts the snowfall in the simulation model by pressing the button on the table. An avalanche is formed by spraying the accumulated snow (ball). In one of the two separate models, there is a terrain without vegetation, and in the other there is a terrain with trees and barriers. The visitor observes the differences between the two models and examines the effects of deforestation on avalanche damage.

An animation, initiated and modified by buttons, is projected on the screen on the assembly table. The heating of the earth is indicated by the orange light on the world map and the cooling of the earth is indicated by the emission of white light. Earth’s surface temperature is monitored on the LED screen.

There is a puzzle on the tablet on the unit base. This puzzle contains the World Tectonic Map. The visitor tries to place these tectonic pieces correctly. When placed correctly, the visitor learns how the earthquake belts intersect on the tectonic map and their properties on the screen on the desktop.

Visitors can make it rain from the clouds in the models by pressing the button on the table. The model on the left shows houses built on a concrete floor and a stream bed. Here, it is noticeable that the houses have been badly damaged by the flood. On the right, in the forest in the model, some of the flood water is absorbed by the soil, reducing the impact of the flood. It is learned that the destruction of forests affects the consequences of flooding.

There are 4 circles for each greenhouse gas on the table. The temperature felt in the circles varies according to the rate of impact of the respective greenhouse gas on global warming. The order from the hottest circle to the least hot is as follows: phosphorus gases, nitrous oxide, methane and carbon dioxide. On and around the map of the world on the table, the proportion of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is shown with LEDs.

Dünya-Güneş-Ay Modeli ile, gece ve gündüz oluşumu kavramları, Dünya ve Ay’ın dönüş hareketleri, mevsimler ve Ay’ın evreleri üç boyutlu olarak incelenebilmektedir. Ay’ın etrafındaki ve Dünya’nın Güneş etrafındaki dönüşünü gösteren interaktif bir düzenektir.

Ziyaretçiler bu istasyona geldiklerinde haznede bulunan çeşitli renklerdeki topları alıp, platform üzerinde bir noktadan delik etrafında dairesel hareket yapacak şekilde bırakacaktır. Düzeneğin eğrisel yapısından dolayı toplar deliklerin etrafında dairesel hareketler gerçekleştirecek ve her devirde deliğe daha fazla yaklaşacaktır. Toplar deliğe yaklaştıkça daha çok hızlanacak ve yerçekimi etkisiyle içeri doğru düşecektir.

The visitor activates the circuit by touching the laser beam. Each laser has a receiver. There are certain notes of harp sound connected to these receivers.
