Article Citation - Scopus: 2Wong’s Oscillation Theorem for the Second-Order Delay Differential Equations(Springer New York LLC, 2017) Özbekler,A.; Zafer,A.[No abstract available]Article Citation - Scopus: 3Evaluation of Asterion Morphometry in Terms of Clinical Anatomy(Yuzuncu Yil Universitesi Tip Fakultesi, 2019) Akkaşoğlu,S.; Farimaz,M.; Aktaş,H.A.; Ocak,H.; Erdal,Ö.D.; Sargon,M.F.; Çalişkan,S.Asterion is the junction of lambdoid, parietomastoid and occipitomastoid sutures and it corresponds to the location of the posterolateral fontanelle. It is close related to the location of junction of transverse and sigmoid sinuses. Mastoid process, posterior end of zygomatic arch, external occipital protuberance and lambda are bony features in close proximity of asterion. In the present study we measured the distance between asterion and each of aforementioned bony points. Twenty human dry skulls were included in this study. Distance between asterion and mastoid process was 43.65 ± 6.75 mm on the left side and 45.01± 6.04mm on the right side. Distance between asterion and posterior end of zygomatic arch was 43.97 ± 7.37 mm on the left side and 43.95± 7.02 mm on the right side. Distance between asterion and external occipital protuberance was 62.59 ± 8.83 mm on the left side and 54.75 ±5.57mm on the right side. Distance between asterion and lambda was 81.40 ± 7.36 mm on the left side and 82 ± 4.96 mm on the right side. In 84 % of the cases asterion was at the junction of transverse and sigmoid sinuses. In 12% of the cases asterion was below the junction of transverse and sigmoid sinuses. In 4 % of the cases asterion was above the junction of transverse and sigmoid sinuses. Asterion is the essential point to indicate safety zone for surgical approach and to determine sex and age. It is of great interest of anatomists, anthropologists, forensic experts, radiologists and neurosurgeons. © 2019, Yuzuncu Yil Universitesi Tip Fakultesi.

While for 0 < q ≤ 1, {double pipe}Bn,q{double pipe} = 1 for all n ∈ ℕ, in the case q > 1, the norm {double pipe}Bn,q{double pipe} grows rather rapidly as n → + ∞ and q → + ∞. Both theoretical and numerical comparisons of the new estimates with the previously available ones are carried out. The conditions are determined under which the new estimates are better than the known ones. © Springer Science+Business Media New York 2013.Note Citation - Scopus: 3The Relation Between Electricity Demand and the Economic and Demographic State: a Multiple Regression Analysis(International Research Center for Energy and, 2013) Şenel,M.; Şenel,B.; Bilir,L.; Zeytin,V.[No abstract available]Article Citation - Scopus: 1Digital Solutions for Disaster Management: Analyzing the Impact of the February 2023 Earthquake in Türkiye(Ankara University, 2024) Nazlıoğlu, S.; Kalem, G.; Yazıcı, A.This research investigates the involvement of information technologies, including communication platforms and social media solutions, in managing earthquake disasters, specifically focusing on the February 2023 earthquake in Türkiye. In order to achieve this, a comparative framework is constructed, which incorporates four main categories, namely goal, providers, target phase, and platform. The data is gathered from diverse sources, and a total of 130 solutions are identified immediately following the February 2023 earthquake in Türkiye. After conducting a thorough examination of these solutions and removing any duplicates and irrelevant options, the final dataset comprises 89 unique solutions sourced from 82 providers. According to the study's findings, the solutions employed in mitigation and preparedness phases prioritize proactive measures and planning, while the ones in response phase witnesses a significant increase in activities related to aid campaigns, emergency response, information dissemination, and support services. The solutions in recovery phase further intensifies support services to aid affected communities. Web-based platforms are predominantly used during different phases of disaster management, with mobile platforms playing a crucial role in communication and on-the-ground activities. Private organizations exhibit strong involvement in developing IT platforms, while public entities and NGOs contribute to a lesser extent. © 2024, Ankara University.

The experiment is designed to perform measurements with neutrinos produced in proton-proton collisions at the LHC in an energy range between 100 GeV and 1 TeV. It covers a previously unexplored pseudo-rapidity range of 7.2 < η < 8.4. The detector is located 480 m downstream of the ATLAS interaction point in the TI18 tunnel. The detector is composed of a hybrid system based on an 800 kg target mass of tungsten plates, interleaved with emulsion and electronic trackers, followed downstream by a calorimeter and a muon system. The configuration allows efficiently distinguishing between all three neutrino flavours, opening a unique opportunity to probe physics of heavy flavour production at the LHC in the region that is not accessible to ATLAS, CMS and LHCb. This region is of particular interest also for future circular colliders and for predictions of very high-energy atmospheric neutrinos. The detector concept is also well suited to searching for Feebly Interacting Particles via signatures of scattering in the detector target. The experiment has published several results. This work focuses on the experience gained from the first measurements and how this is being used to achieve the physics goals of SND@LHC. © Copyright owned by the author(s) under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0).Article Citation - Scopus: 5Candu Reactors With Reactor Grade Plutonium/Thorium Carbide Fuel(Carl Hanser Verlag, 2011) Şahin,S.; Khan,M.J.; Ahmed,R.Reactor grade (RG) plutonium, accumulated as nuclear waste of commercial reactors can be re-utilized in CANDU reactors. TRISO type fuel can withstand very high fuel burn ups. On the other hand, carbide fuel would have higher neutronic and thermal performance than oxide fuel. In the present work, RG-PuC/ThC TRISO fuels particles are imbedded body-centered cubic (BCC) in a graphite matrix with a volume fraction of 60%. The fuel compacts conform to the dimensions of sintered CANDU fuel compacts are inserted in 37 zircolay rods to build the fuel zone of a bundle. Investigations have been conducted on a conventional CANDU reactor based on GENTILLYII design with 380 fuel bundles in the core. Three mixed fuel composition have been selected for numerical calculation; (1) 10% RG-PuC + 90% ThC; (2) 30% RG-PuC+70% ThC; (3) 50% RG-PuC + 50% ThC. Initial reactor criticality values for the modes (1), (2) and (3) are calculated as k∞,0 = 1-4848, 1.5756 and 1.627, respectively. Corresponding operation lifetimes are ~ 2.7, 8.4, and 15 years and with burn ups of ∼ 72000, 222000 and 366000 MW.d/tonne, respectively. Higher initial plutonium charge leads to higher burn ups and longer operation periods. In the course of reactor operation, most of the plutonium will be incinerated. At the end of life, remnants of plutonium isotopes would survive; and few amounts of uranium, americium and curium isotopes would be produced. © Carl Hanser Verlag, München.Conference Object Impact Behaviour of Recycled Rubber-Based Composites Reinforced with Glass Bubbles and Alumina Fibers (γ-Al2O3)(Springer, 2023) Çakır Kabakcı,G.; Aslan,Ö.; Bayraktar,E.In this research, recycled rubber-based composites are considered with glass bubble (GB) and fine gamma alumina fiber (γ-Al2O3) reinforcements. The effect of the reinforcements with matrix, fracture characteristics of the composite are studied by impact-loading tests (i.e., drop-weight tests). These test results are simulated by finite element analysis (FEM) and the results are compared with the experimental results. Microstructural and fracture surface analysis are carried out by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Mechanical test results show that the reinforcement with glass bubbles and aluminum oxide ceramic fibers generally increase the damping capacity and fracture toughness of the composites. © 2023, The Society for Experimental Mechanics, Inc.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Fesenko Reciprocity Map(Amer Mathematical Soc, 2009) Ikeda, K. I.; Serbest, E.In recent papers, Fesenko has defined the non-Abelian local reciprocity map for every totally ramified arithmetically profinite (APF) Galois extension of a given local field K, by extending the work of Hazewinkel and Neukirch-Iwasawa. The theory of Fesenko extends the previous non-Abelian generalizations of local class field theory given by Koch-de Shalit, and by A. Gurevich. In this paper, which is research-expository in nature, we give a detailed account of Fesenko's work, including all the skipped proofs.Book Part Ensuring Circularity Through Outsourcing Decisions in Solar Photovoltaic Supply Chains(Springer, 2025) Erol, Ismail; Peker, Iskender; Benli, Tolga; Ar, Ilker MuratBecause solar photovoltaic (SPv) panels have seen such significant cost reductions in recent years, it has proven to be by far the most dynamic forms of renewable power generation. However, the transition from linear to circular is also crucial for building sustainability in SPv supply chains. The circular economy (CE) is appealing in part because of its ability to bring economic and environmental development objectives together to ensure sustainable production and consumption. To aid in the shift to a more circular economy, several circular-based strategies for various functions such as procurement can be developed. In this study, critical success factors (CSFs) to ensure circular outsourcing structure in SPv supply chains are identified and scrutinized. To achieve this, a multi-criteria-based methodology is proposed. The findings of this study argue that understanding the actual implications of not converting to circular outsourcing (C12) is the most significant cause CSF. This study also provides several implications. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
