Article Citation - WoS: 66Citation - Scopus: 77Generalized δ-shock model via runs(Elsevier Science Bv, 2012) Eryilmaz, SerkanAccording to the delta-shock model, the system fails when the time between two consecutive shocks falls below a fixed threshold delta. This model has a potential application in various fields such as inventory, insurance and system reliability. In this paper, we study run-related generalization of this model such that the system fails when k consecutive interarrival times are less than a threshold delta. The survival function and the mean value of the failure time of the system are explicitly derived for exponentially distributed interarrival times. We also propose a new combined shock model which considers both the magnitudes of successive shocks and the interarrival times. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V.

E.; Mustak, O.; Simsir, C.In this study, the material dataset presented in part I of this article is validated at industrial scale in batch through-hardening of bearing races. The material dataset acquired is implemented in a commercial heat treatment simulation software. Heat transfer coefficients for the oil and salt bath are determined by using a commercial standard quench probe. Zone temperatures and transfer times of the roller-belt furnace are measured directly from the system. Through-hardening of inner ring (IR) of 6813 bearing in oil and salt bath is simulated considering most of the industrial details. Finally, predicted dimensional changes are compared with the coordinate measurement results and a good agreement is achieved. It is concluded that determined material and process data, idealizations and simulation procedure can be considered "validated" for further improvement of the industrial process.Article 19. Yüzyılda Osmanlı ve Rus İmparatorluklarında Yerel Yönetim Reformu: 1864 Zemstvo Kanunu ve 1864 Vilayet Nizamnamesi Üzerine Karşılaştırmalı Bir Analiz(2022) Gülseven, Aslı YiğıtOsmanlı ve Rus İmparatorluklarının 19. yüzyılına damga vuran modernleşme süreci her iki devlette de kapsamlı bir reform hareketi başlatmıştı. 19. yüzyılın ortasında patlak veren Kırım Harbi neticesinde, Avrupalı devletlerin baskı ve müdahalelerinden çekinen her iki imparatorlukta da iktisadi refahın sağlanması yolunda idari düzenlemelerin ya-pılması öncelikli hedef haline gelmişti. Buradan hareketle, Osmanlı ve Rus İmparator-luklarında 19. yüzyılda etkin yönetim anlayışı çerçevesinde yerel yönetimlerde bir takım idari düzenlemeler meydana getirildi. Bir yandan yerel yönetimlerin faaliyet ve yetki alanlarının genişletilmesi anlayışı benimsenirken, diğer yandan her iki imparatorlukta da merkezi yönetimin güçlendirilmesi hedeflenmiştir. Bu çalışma, Osmanlı İmparatorlu-ğunda 1864 Vilayet Nizamnamesi ve Rus İmparatorluğunda 1864 Zemstvo Kanununun taşra örgütlenmesine getirdikleri yerel yönetim reformunu ortaya koymayı ve her iki dü-zenlemeyi tarihsel arka plan, içerik, kapsam ve etkinlik yönünden karşılaştırmalı olarak değerlendirmeyi amaçlamaktadır.Article Citation - Scopus: 48Identifying Phishing Attacks in Communication Networks Using Url Consistency Features(Inderscience Publishers, 2020) Azeez,N.A.; Salaudeen,B.B.; Misra,S.; Damasevicius,R.; Maskeliunas,R.Phishing is a fraudulent attempt by cybercriminals, where the target audience is addressed by a text message, phone call or e-mail, requesting classified and sensitive information after presenting himself/herself as a legitimate agent. Successful phishing attack may result into financial loss and identity theft. Identifying forensic characteristics of phishing attack can help to detect the attack and its perpetuators and as well as to enable defence against it. To shield internet users from phishing assaults, numerous anti-phishing models have been proposed. Currently employed techniques to handle these challenges are not sufficient and capable enough. We aim at identifying phishing sites in order to guard internet users from being vulnerable to any form of phishing attacks by verifying the conceptual and literal consistency between the uniform resource locator (URL) and the web content. The implementation of the proposed PhishDetect method achieves an accuracy of 99.1%; indicating that it is effective in detecting various forms of phishing attacks. © 2020 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd..

The focus is the idea that language and culture, the core of literature, are to be transferred to other linguistic and cultural mediums during translation, and constitute the ecological environment of the text. This undertaking assigns to the translator the task of selecting, adapting and recreating this material in the foreign environment. An ecocritical approach will be adopted to explore how and how far this task is materialized by studying a Turkish author Yasar Kemal's novel Ortadirek translated as The Wind from the Plain. Yasar Kemal is regarded as the most ecologically-minded author of Turkish literature and his novels portray nature as the mental landscapes of man, a force under which the constituents of the text are recreated at every linguistic and culture-bound effort of the author. Hence, the main endeavour of this study will be to bring to the surface, with an eco-critical approach, the translational preferences of the translator of Ortadirek and their significance in the recreation of Kemal's ecological vision in the translation.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 13A New Mixed Δ-Shock Model With a Change in Shock Distribution(Springer, 2023) Chadjiconstantinidis, Stathis; Tuncel, Altan; Eryilmaz, SerkanIn this paper, reliability properties of a system that is subject to a sequence of shocks are investigated under a particular new change point model. According to the model, a change in the distribution of the shock magnitudes occurs upon the occurrence of a shock that is above a certain critical level. The system fails when the time between successive shocks is less than a given threshold, or the magnitude of a single shock is above a critical threshold. The survival function of the system is studied under both cases when the times between shocks follow discrete distribution and when the times between shocks follow continuous distribution. Matrix-based expressions are obtained for matrix-geometric discrete intershock times and for matrix-exponential continuous intershock times, as well.Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 9Exploring the Communication Behaviour Among Global Software Development Learners(inderscience Enterprises Ltd, 2011) Serce, Fatma Cemile; Swigger, Kathleen M.; Alpaslan, Ferda Nur; Brazile, Robert; Dafoulas, George; Lopez-Cabrera, VictorThis study examines communication behaviours in global software learning teams. Using a coding scheme developed in previous research (Curtis and Lawson, 2001), the paper characterises communication behaviours of students engaged in a software development project. The paper reports the results of two pilot projects done with students in USA, England, Turkey and Panama. Through content analysis we identify distinct patterns of interactions and examine how these patterns are associated with task, culture, or performance. Our results suggest that communication patterns among global software learners may be related to task type, culture and levels of performance.Article Citation - WoS: 7Computation of a Tunable Slot-Loaded Equilateral Triangular Microstrip Antenna(Vsp Bv, 2009) Aydin, E.In this paper, a simple closed form expression is developed to accurately estimate the lower and upper operating frequencies of a single feed slot loaded triangular patch (SLTP) with variations of the bent slot lengths. It is obtained by using cavity model analysis and useful to antenna engineers for accurately predicting both operating resonant frequencies of the SLTP. The theory is compared with the experimental results available in the literature, and excellent agreement is observed. The proposed computation is also extended to the analysis of tunability of the SLTP as a function of the air-gap height.Article Citation - WoS: 21Citation - Scopus: 23Fear of Missing Out, Internet Addiction and Their Relationship To Psychological Symptoms(Turkish Green Crescent Soc, 2020) Orta, İrem Metin; Metin-Orta, IremInternet addiction has become one of the most important problems of today's youth and received considerableattention from scholars. Research demonstrated significant impairments in psychological and social functioning among internet dependents. Given this, the present study aimed to investigate the relationship betweenfear of missing out (FoMO), internet addiction, and psychological symptoms. Based on research demonstratingthat FoMO, the pervasive anxiety associated with the feeling that one is missing out others’ satisfying experiences, increases social media engagement, it was expected that FoMO would relate to internet addiction, whichin turn would be linked to poor psychological well-being. The sample consisted of 322 undergraduate studentswho filled out items measuring FoMO, internet addiction and psychological symptoms. The regression analysisrevealed that internet addiction acts as a mediator in the link between FoMO and psychological symptoms.That is, the participants’ greater FoMO is linked to higher levels of psychological symptoms both directly andindirectly through a higher level of internet addiction. Overall, the present study provides an insight into ourunderstanding of the psychological and behavioral aspects of internet addiction, and thus, makes an importantcontribution to the promotion of mental health.
