The production of beauty hadrons was measured via semi-leptonic decays at mid-rapidity with the ALICE detector at the LHC in the transverse momentum interval 1 < pT < 8 GeV/c in minimum-bias p-Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV and in 1.3 < pT

Modeling of the Effects of Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) Using Fuzzy Logic with Different Membership Functions for Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEM) with Polyvinyl Alcohol/Nano Silver (PVA/Ag)

ERSOYOĞLU, Ali Serhat | ATA, Sadık | DİNÇER, Kevser | ÖNAL, Güral | YILMAZ, Yusuf

In this study, the effects of cyclic voltammetry (CV) has been modeled with Rule-based mamdani-type fuzzy (RBMTF), by using experimental data for proton exchange membrane fuel cell with PVA/AG. In the system developed, RBMTF apply input parameters are CV, scan rate and time, output parameters are current density and voltage. 12300 values for experimental study also obtained with RBMTF. Membership functions (MFs) are the building blocks of fuzzy set theory, i.e., fuzziness in a fuzzy set is determined by its MF. Accordingly, the shapes of MFs are important for a particular problem since they ef ...Daha fazlası

Methylmethane sulfonate (MMS) is an alkylating agent that may react with DNA and damage it. We investigated histological changes and apoptosis caused by MMS and the effects of curcumin on MMS treated mouse kidneys. Twenty-four mice were divided into four equal groups: controls injected with saline, a group injected with 40 mg/kg MMS, a group injected with 40 mg/kg MMS and given 100 mg/kg curcumin by gavage, and a group given 100 mg/kg curcumin by gavage. MMS caused congestion and vacuole formation, and elevated the apoptotic index significantly, but had no other effect on kidney tissue. Curcum ...Daha fazlası

Multidimensions of poverty for agricultural community in turkey: Konya province case

KAN, Mustafa | OĞUZ, Cennet | KAN, Arzu | ERGUN, Hüseyin | DEMİRÖZ, Emel

Poverty is a multi-dimensional global phenomenon. It encompasses health, housing, education, and social exclusion as well as simple incomes and expenditures. Multidimensional poverty is currently at the heart of many theoretical, empirical and institutional debates. The study was carried out in a rural settlement of Konya province in Turkey to determine the rural population’s poverty structure and to quantify different general characteristics of both the poor and non-poor population according to the poverty line (relative poverty based household income-monetary approach) and asset based wealth ...Daha fazlası

Management of chlorine dosing rates in urban water distribution networks using online continuous monitoring and modeling

KARADİREK, İbrahim Ethem | KARA, Selami | MUHAMMETOĞLU, Ayşe | MUHAMMETOĞLU, Habib | SOYUPAK, Selçuk

The aim of this study is to present the results of a research which was undertaken to manage chlorine dosing rates in a real water distribution network using online continuous monitoring and modeling. The study area was divided into 18 district metered areas (DMAs) where the water pressure and flow rate measurements to each DMA were online and continuous. Besides, online water quality sensors were installed at eight different locations and a bimonthly water quality measurement and sampling program was carried out. The data sets required to set, calibrate and verify the hydraulic and chlorine m ...Daha fazlası

Optimization of consistency limits and plasticity index of fine-grained soils modified with polypropylene fibers and additive materials

ZAİMOĞLU, Ahmet Şahin | TAN, Özcan | AKBULUT, Rahim Kağan

It is a well-known fact that water content has a significant effect on the engineering properties of fine-grained soils. There is a close relationship between consistency limits and geotechnical parameters of fine-grained soils. This experimental study was performed to investigate the effect of randomly distributed polypropylene fibers (PP) and some additive materials [e.g., Borogypsum (BG), Fly Ash (FA) and Cement (C)] on consistency limits and plasticity index of a fine-grained soil. The Taguchi method was applied to the experiments and standard L9 Orthogonal (OA) with four factors and three ...Daha fazlası

Freezing Range, Melt Quality, and Hot Tearing in Al-Si Alloys

ULUDAĞ, Muhammet | ÇETİN, Remzi | DIŞPINAR, Derya

In this study, three different aluminum-silicon alloys (A356, A413, and A380) that have different solidification morphology and solidification ranges were examined with an aim to evaluate the hot tearing susceptibility. T-shape mold and Constrained Rod Casting (CRC) mold were used for the characterization. Reduced Pressure Test (RPT) was used to quantify the casting quality by measuring bifilm index. It was found that bifilm index and solidification range have an important role on the hot tearing formation. As it is known, bifilms can cause porosity and in this case, it was shown that porosity ...Daha fazlası

Industry 4.0 and Turkey

YAŞAR, Esra | ULUSOY, Tuba

In 2011, Germany kicked off the Fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0) to empower its economy. Since then, revolutionary changes have been implemented all over the world, increasing international competition. Smart-factory capabilities emerging fromIndustry 4.0 have many benefits such as lowering production costs of existing factories and increasing product quality. However, with such revolutionary changes, an orientation period is required for any implementer. To efficiently manage such an orientation period, the extant situation must first be analyzed. Only then should the necessary cha ...Daha fazlası
