Energy Supply Chain and Energy Security

ÖZKAN NESİMİOĞLU, Şerife

Energy Supply Chain and Energy Security Şerife Özkan Nesimioğlu Correspondence: serife.ozkan.nesimioglu@karatay.edu.tr In general, supply chain security is a prominent part of energy security, which is defined as “uninterrupted availability of energy sources at an affordable price” by International Energy Agency (IEA). In more detail, energy security can be separated into two sub-definitions as short and long- term energy security. Short term energy security focuses on the ability of the energy system to react promptly to sudden changes in the supply- demand balance. Here, sudden changes refer ...Daha fazlası

Emerging intercultural identity in the Turkish EFL context

The paper argues that for individuals to develop intercultural identity, they do not necessarily need to experience intercultural experiences. A questionnaire devised by the author is administered to 227 Turkish learners of English aged 19-23. The findings of self-reported responses to a 37-item questionnaire as well as the qualitative data reveal that learners feel they have a slightly different identity and that English is an asset, a passport to a world of new experiences in socialization and cross-cultural communication. The paper concludes that it is legitimate to speak of intercultural i ...Daha fazlası

Türkiye Ve Ab Ülkelerinin Rusya'dan Doğal Gaz İthalat Yöntemlerinin Karşılaştırılması: Türkiye İçin Öneriler

ÖZCAN, Mustafa

Birincil enerji piyasasında payının artması beklenen ve dünyanın daha temiz, daha uygun maliyetli ve güvenli bir enerji geleceğine geçişinde önemli bir rol oynama potansiyeline sahip olan tek fosil yakıt olan doğal gaz, dünyadaki enerji arzının hayati bir bileşenidir. Taşınmış olduğu nitelikleri doğalgazı jeopolitik planda uluslararası önemini artırmaktadır. Türkiye ve AB ülkelerinin enerji politikaları, arz güvenliğine gerekli bir unsur olarak giderek daha fazla önem atfetmektedirler. Bu ülkelerinin gelişen ekonomilerinde enerji ve enrjinin de en önemli bileşenlerinden birisi olan doğal gaz, ...Daha fazlası

Numerical modeling of Samsun Mert River floods

ÜLKE, Aslı | BEDEN, Neslihan | DEMİR, Vahdettin | MENEK, Necati

Floods are considered one of the most important natural disasters after earthquakes in Turkey. As a result, there is currently great public interest in this issue and it is necessary to intensify research activities in order to understand natural disasters better and to reinforce risk management. The effect of climate change on meteorological events causes an increase in extreme events such as excessive precipitation in some regions. An extreme natural event becomes a disaster when it has a large impact on human settlements and activities. Study area Samsun city is placed in the north of Turke ...Daha fazlası

Flood Modeling of Samsun/Atakum Region by GIS Tools

BEDEN, Neslihan | DEMİR, Vahdettin | ÜLKE KESKİN, Aslı

Study area Samsun/Atakum province is almost under threat of flooding in each year. In this region, the main reason of devastating flood is the influence of the Degirmen stream especially during March, April, and July and due to seasonal rainfall, which eventually makes the district vulnerable to flooding. In addition, the human-based constructions and the collapse of water retaining structures are among the main causes of flooding. In this study flood risks of Samsun Degirmen stream determinate by MIKE 11 and GIS. Numerical model selection for studies provides advantages in developing and chan ...Daha fazlası

Flood Modeling by GIS Tools

BEDEN, Neslihan | DEMİR, Vahdettin | ÜLKE, Aslı

In this study flood risks of Samsun Degirmen stream determinate by MIKE 11 and GIS. In this study, MIKE powered by DHI software used for numerical 1D modeling of study area. The hydrological and hydraulic data for the study area were obtained from the Turkish General Directorate of State Hydraulic Works. ArcGIS program was used for creating a triangulated irregular network data (TIN). The flood inundation maps demonstrated that some areas, from the upstream to downstream of the Degirmen stream basin is affected from 100 year and 500 year return period events.

Adoption of Industry 4.0: A case of manufacturing firms in Turkey

YAŞAR, Esra | ULUSOY, Tuba | AKTAN, Mehmet

The fourth stage of industrialization that is called as Industry 4.0, is digitalization of manufacturing. Cloud technologies, The Internet of Things (IoT), and Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are some of the technologies that help to make manufacturing digitalized. Although these first applications were seen in Germany, some studies indicate that manufacturing firms from developing countries have started to use Industry 4.0 technologies. These firms are mostly aware that disregarding benefits of Industry 4.0 technologies may result with falling behind in global rivalry. Turkey is one of these cou ...Daha fazlası

Turkey’s Forecasting of Energy Demand with Artificial Neural-Network

YAŞAR, Esra | UÇKUN, Ayşegül

Energy demand isincreasing day by day in parallel with economic growth, especially for the rapidly developing countries. In order to achieve a sustainable economic growth, long-term targets are being put to manage the operation of market in a good way. Turkey isan emerging and rapidlydeveloping country soits energy demand has increased rapidly to meet the growing economy. Therefore, forecasting Turkey’s energy demand accurately is of great importance toachieve a sustainable economic growth. The main goal of this study is to develop the equation for forecasting energy demand using the backpropa ...Daha fazlası

Renewable Energy Development In Turkey And Its Potential To Help Combat Climate Change

UYANIK, Sırrı | UÇKUN ÖZKAN, Ayşegül

Primary energy consumption is increasing day by day due to Turkey's growing population, rapid urbanization and rapid economic growth. A large part of the energy need is provided from fossil fuels. This causes approximately 73% of Turkey's total energy consumption to be met through imports. In this respect, renewable energy is very important for a country like Turkey that meets its energy needs generally with imported fossil energy sources, and therefore, its dependence on foreign energy reaches serious dimensions. Therefore, Turkey should determine a low-carbon and climate-compatible developme ...Daha fazlası
