Tiryaki, Deniz; Aydın, İhsan; Atıcı, Ökkeş
We have isolated psychrotolerant bacteria from the leaf apoplast of cold-adapted wild plants and aimed to investigate their effect on the cold resistance of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). Based on the findings of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, 20 isolates belonging to 5 bacteria species (Pseudomonas fragi, P. chloropaphis, P. fluorescens, P. proteolytica and Brevibacterium frigoritolerans) were identified in the leaf apoplastic fluid of Draba nemorosa, Galanthus gracilis, Colchicum speciousum, Scilla siberica, Erodium cicutarium, respectively. We have determined that 6 of the 20 isolates have exhibited ACC (1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate) deaminase activity and secreted different extracellular proteins under cold condition (+4 °C) compared to normal growth condition (28 °C). The six isolates were then inoculated independently of each other to the leaves of 10-day-old bean seedlings growing under normal conditions (25/22 °C, 16/8 h photoperiod), and the inoculated and uninoculated (control) seedlings were transferred to cold (9/5 °C, 16/8 h photoperiod) for 3 days. The bacterial inoculations have decreased freezing injury, ice nucleating activity and lipid peroxidation content in parallel with the decrease of reactive oxygen species level such as O2.- and H2O2 in the inoculated seedlings compared to the control. In addition, the inoculations of the isolates have stimulated the activity of apoplastic antioxidant enzymes including superoxide dismutase, catalase, peroxidase, and glutathione reductase. The results show that the inoculations improve the cold resistance of bean seedlings and the psychrotolerant bacterial isolates can be evaluated within the group of plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) which can increase tolerance of cold-sensitive crops.

- BildiriYalnız künye2019Realization of a low cost and fast boost converter based MPPT for PV system
Basoglu, Mustafa Engin
Photovoltaic (PV) modules have a small power conversion efficiency since material technologies used in commercial PV modules is weak and not well developed. In order to provide the maximum available efficiency in a PV module, a power processing unit (PPU) is connected between PV module and load to extract more power from PV modules In other words, DC-DC converters are used for impedance matching between PV module and load in any kind of loading and environmental conditions. Several maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithms have been proposed in the literature. But there are still shortcomings to be improved such as reducing the steady state ripples in power, dynamic response time under changing conditions. In this paper, design steps of the boost converter for an MPPT application have been presented and some experiments have been performed. Consequently, a low cost and fast boost converter based MPPT is implemented.

Palazoğlu, Cansu Atmaca; Koç, Zeliha
Background: Rising levels of burnout and decreasing job satisfaction can inhibit healthcare professionals from providing high-quality care due to a corresponding decrease in their ethical sensitivity. Aim: This study aimed to determine the relationship between the level of ethical sensitivity in emergency service nurses and their levels of burnout and job satisfaction. Research design: This research employed a descriptive and cross-sectional design. Participants and research context: This study was conducted with a sample of 236 nurses, all of whom worked in emergency service between 24 July 2015 and 28 April 2016. Data were collected using the Moral Sensitivity Questionnaire, Maslach Burnout Inventory, and Minnesota Job Satisfaction Scale. Ethical considerations: This study was approved by the Institutional Ethics Review Board of Ondokuz Mayıs University. Findings: There was a weak and negative correlation (r = –0.158, p = 0.015) between Moral Sensitivity Questionnaire and Maslach Burnout Inventory scores. There was also a weak and negative correlation (r = –0.335, p < 0.001) between the Maslach Burnout Inventory and Minnesota Job Satisfaction Scale scores. Discussion and conclusion: Decreased job satisfaction and increased burnout levels among emergency service nurses might result in them indulging in improper practices, frequently facing ethical problems, and a decrease in the overall quality of service in hospitals. In order for emergency service nurses to recognize ethical problems and make the most accurate decisions, a high level of ethical sensitivity is critical. In this respect, it is suggested that continuing education after graduation and training programs should be organized.

İlyasoğlu, Huri; Yilmaz, Fırat
This study aimed to evaluate the physicochemical, chemical, rheological, sensorial and microbiological properties of yoghurt enriched with polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). The PUFA-enriched yoghurt was prepared with walnut slurry (10%−50%) and skimmed milk (50%−90%). Compared with the control yoghurt, it contained a lower content of protein, potassium, sodium and phosphorus, and a higher content of fat, iron, magnesium and zinc. Moreover, it exhibited a lower syneresis value and a higher water-holding capacity value. Its fat was rich in omega fatty acids, mainly linoleic and linolenic acids. These research findings revealed that walnut slurry could be used in yoghurt manufacture to develop fermented milk products as functional foods, especially when enriched with omega fatty acids.

Adiguzel, Gulsah; Faiz, Ozlem; Sisecioglu, Melda; Sari, Bilge; Baltaci, Ozkan; Akbulut, Sumeyya; Genc, Berna; Adiguzel, Ahmet
A novel extracellular xylanase was purified and characterized from Pediococcus acidilactici GC25 (GenBank number: MF289522). The purification was 4.6-fold with a yield of 43.61% through acetone precipitation, Q-Sepharose, and CM-Sepharose ion change chromatography. The molecular weight of the enzyme was 48.15 kDa, and the optimum pH and temperature were 7.0 and 40 °C, respectively. The maximum activity was observed between 20 and 50 °C. Although it was active within a wide pH range (pH 2.0–9.0), it retained over 85% of its activity after 24 h incubation; and over 70% of its activity after 168 h incubation in neutral and alkaline pH. It was observed that the enzyme showed high stability with K+, Ba2+, Cd2+, Co2+, Sr2+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Al3+, Zn2+, and Ni2+ ions. The Km and Vmax for the xylanase were 3.10 mg mL−1 and 4.66 U/mg protein, respectively. It was determined that treatment of different fruit juices with P. acidilactici GC25 xylanase improved the clarification. The highest increase in the reducing sugar amount and decrease in the turbidity was 24.47 ± 1.08 and 21.22 ± 0.58 for peach juice at 0.15 U/mL enzyme concentration. These results showed that the xylanase purified from P. acidilactici GC25 may have a wide potential in biotechnological processes of the food and baking industry.

- MakaleYalnız künye2019Scopus SJRQ3Nature of tourmaline formation in quartz porphyry in the E Sakarya zone (NE Turkey): Geochemistry and isotopic approach
Sipahi, Ferkan
Tourmaline, which exhibits important differences in terms of texture and composition, is found in 44 My aged quartz porphyry from Karadağ in the eastern Pontide (NE Turkey). Tourmaline has high Al and Mg contents and is the chemical zoning; it contains Mg that can substitute for Fe and/or Al in the Y site and X-vacancy that can replace Na in the X site from the core to rim. Tourmaline, classified as dravite component, has low Fe content and very low Ca content. The V (112-510 ppm) and Sr (37.3-147.1 ppm) contents of tourmalines related to quartz porphyry are in conformity with metamorphic and magmatic tourmalines. Tourmalines have similar rare earth elements (REEs) but lower heavy REE contents than host quartz porphyry. The δ18O and δD values of tourmalines are relatively narrow, ranging from 5.7 to 8.5% V-SMOW and from -58 to -72% V-SMOW, respectively, consistent with primary magmatic water. The oxygen-isotope thermometry calculation of quartz and tourmaline pair yields equilibrium formation temperature of 432 °C. The formation of tourmaline shows a post magmatic origin, confirming magmatic fluid cooling and fluid-rock interactions.

Kahya, Volkan; Araz, Onur
This study evaluates the response reduction effect of single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) primary systems with multiple tuned mass dampers (MTMDs) under harmonic excitation. To design MTMD, TMD properties are re-calibrated based on the natural frequencies of the system on which the number of TMDs is one less than the current system. This is a sequential approach that does not require any iteration for each step. Instead it requires starting from the case with single TMD, and then increasing the numbers of TMDs one more at a time until the desired number is reached. Using the obtained design parameters, the effectiveness and robustness of the MTMDs are studied in comparison to MTMDs designed by previous works available in the literature. As a result, the proposed design procedure produces an effective multiple tuned mass damper to be utilized in a SDOF system under harmonic excitation. Additionally, the proposed approach provides a simple way to design the MTMD system than the traditional optimization methods, thus it significantly reduces the computation effort in the design process.

Aydin, Metin Mutlu; Akgöl, Kadir; Günay, Banihan
High vehicular speeds are one of the most frequent complains in urban roads. Lack of obedience to speed limits results in many fatal accidents. Traffic calming measures have been widely used in many developed countries to reduce accidents, the negative effects of speeding and traffic noise in urban roads. In the scope of this study, horizontal calming measures, namely chicanes, which are not in use in Turkey yet, have been studied by using a driving simulator for the aim of controlling and reducing vehicular speeds. For this purpose, Akdeniz University campus was selected as the pilot case area and a number of different roads in the campus have been modeled in 3D. It was determined from the speed data that for divided four lane carriageways, chicane number 10 (K10) which has 3 m effective width and 45 entry and exit angles, for undivided two lane carriageways, chicane number 2 (K2) which has 2.7 m effective width and 60 entry and 30 exit angles, gave the best outcome from the driving tests in accordance with the characteristics of Turkish drivers. Furthermore, based on the findings, common driver errors are identified and a number of recommendations are made.

İncele - MakaleYalnız künye2019Scopus SJRQ1Thermal Multisensor Fusion for Collaborative Robotics
Benli, Emrah; Spidalieri, Richard Lee; Motai, Yuichi
Collaborative robotic configurations for monitoring and tracking human targets have attracted interest in the fourth industrial revolution. The fusion of different types of sensors embedded in collaborative robotic systems achieves high-quality information and contributes to significantly improve robotic perception. However, current methods have not deeply explored the capabilities of thermal multisensory configurations in human-oriented tasks. In this paper, we propose thermal multisensor fusion (TMF) for collaborative robots to overcome the limitations of stand-alone robots. Thermal vision helps to utilize the heat signature of the human body for human-oriented tracking. An omnidirectional (O-D) infrared (IR) sensor provides a wide field of view (FOV) to detect human targets, and Stereo IR helps determine the distance of the human target in the oriented direction. The fusion of O-D IR and Stereo IR also creates a multisensor stereo for an additional determination of the distance to the target. The fusion of thermal and O-D sensors brings their limited prediction accuracy with their advantages. The maximum a posteriori method is used to predict the distance of the target with high accuracy by using the distance results of TMF stereo from multiple platforms according to the reliability of the sensors rather than its usage of visible-band-based tracking methods. The proposed method tracks the distance calculation of each sensor instead of target trajectory tracking as in visible-band methods. We proved that TMF increases the perception of robots by offering a wide FOV and provides precise target localization for collaborative robots.

Pehlivan, Levent; Baykasoğlu, Cengiz
The experimental investigation on the compressive response of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) honeycombs with various cell configurations was carried out in the present work. The CFRP honeycomb specimens were manufactured by corrugation technique, in which the prepreg CFRP sheets were first corrugated into the certain shape using corrugated aluminum moulds under heat and pressure, and then the corrugated CFRP sheets were glued and stacked to construct honeycomb specimens. Twenty-seven groups of specimens were experimentally tested to examine the effects of cell geometry (i.e., square, circular, and hexagonal), cell wall thickness and height on the quasi-static out-of-plane crushing performance of the honeycombs. The square, circular, and hexagonal honeycomb specimen groups were designed to have almost the same weights. The results showed that the cell wall thickness is an significant parameters on the overal crushing response of the CFRP honeycombs while the out-of-plane compressive strenght of the honeycombs is generally independent of the height. It is observed that the hexagonal specimen groups have generally superior crushing performance in comparison with the square and circular counterparts due to their large double foil bonding surfaces. The experimental results also revealed that the crushing properties of the honeycomb structures with the core densities of 157–282 kg/m 3 could be increased more than two times with the appropriate selection of cell configurations.

Karsli, Orhan; Dokuz, Abdurrahman; Kandemir, Raif; Aydin, Faruk; Schmitt, Axel K.; Ersoy, E. Yalçın; Alyıldız, Cihangir
The timing of major tectonic events and the driving mechanisms for magma generation during Late Cenozoic convergence and collision between Arabia and Eurasia still remain unknown. The Sakarya Zone (SZ) in northern Turkey is a critical member of this collisional assemblage. In the easternmost part of the SZ, we have recognized a Late Miocene volcanic suite termed the Çağirankaya volcanics which displays characteristic post-collisional geochemical features. Here, we report a new data set of zircon U–Pb ages, whole-rock major and trace element, as well as Sr–Nd isotope analyses for dacite and andesite samples from the Çağirankaya volcanics. Zircon U–Pb ages for a selected dacitic sample average 5.16 ± 0.11 Ma (mean square of weighted deviates, MSWD = 0.45, n = 35), confirming a late Miocene age of this volcanic episode. The high-K calc-alkaline andesites and dacites exhibit an adakite-like geochemical signature, and are characterized by high Sr (424 to 552 ppm), Sr/Y ratios (31–43), and low Mg# (42 to 46) values, along with low Y (12–14 ppm) and heavy rare earth element (HREE) concentrations, that resemble those in adakites formed by partial melting of hot oceanic slab during subduction. Isotopic compositions are near bulk Earth (87Sr/86Sr(t) = 0.70482 to 0.70489, εNd(t) = +1.08 to +1.33), which rules out a solely asthenospheric origin. Elevated Nb/Ta (14 to 17) and K2O/Na2O (0.6–1.0) imply a juvenile mafic lower crustal source composed of ~20% garnet-bearing amphibolite. Geochemical modeling suggests that adakite-like parental melts were generated in the absence of subduction and without large-scale delamination of lower continental crust. Instead, our findings suggest that Late Miocene adakite-like volcanic rocks in the SZ formed in a post-collisional intra-continental setting, which experienced far-field extension after the subducted slab of the southern Neotethyan branch became detached in the collision zone. Asthenospheric upwelling and underplating of basaltic magma provided the heat for partial melting of lower crustal amphibolite, forming minor amounts of adakite-like melts in the SZ.

Yücel, Cem
The Pliocene–Quaternary volcanics in NE Turkey are mainly hornblende–phyric trachyandesites having a narrow range of SiO 2 from 61.88 to 63.00 wt.% and exhibiting adakitic signatures with their Na 2 O (3.67–4.27 wt.%), Al 2 O 3 (16.19–16.80 wt.%), Y (14.1–16.5 ppm) contents and K 2 O/Na 2 O (0.87–1.12), Sr/Y (44.24–54.90), and La/Yb (36.80–43.88) ratios. Plagioclases as the main mineral phases show a wide range of compositions, and weak normal and reverse zoning. Hornblendes are generally edenite and pargasite (Mg#: 0.39–0.74). Clinopyroxenes are augite (Mg#: 0.58–0.76). Biotites have Mg# ranging from 0.45 to 0.66. The textural and compositional variations indicate disequilibrium crystallization possibly arising from magma mixing. The U–Pb zircon dating of the adakitic volcanics yielded 3.4–1.9 Ma. The studied rocks display moderate light rare earth element /heavy rare earth element ratios and enrichment in the lithophile element and depletion in high field strength element, implying that the parental magmas were derived from mantle sources previously enriched by slab-derived fluids and/or subducted sediments. The crystallization temperature and pressure estimations based on the clinopyroxene thermobarometry range from 1144 to 1186°C and from 3.92 to 7.97 kbar, respectively. Hornblende thermobarometry, oxygen fugacity, and hygrometer calculations yielded results as 908–993°C at a pressure of 2.87–5.22 kbar, water content of 4.4–8.4 wt.%, and relative oxygen fugacity (ΔNNO log units) of −0.6 to 0.9, respectively. Biotite thermobarometry suggests relatively higher oxygen fugacity conditions (10 –13.33 to 10 –17.60 ) at temperatures of 676–819°C and at pressures from 1.15 to 1.76 kbar. In the light of the obtained data and modelling, it can be concluded that the magmas of the adakitic volcanics were derived from enriched mantle source through relatively higher partial melting and experienced magma mixing with melts at the crustal level. Additionally, the fractional crystallization and assimilation-fractional crystallization processes may have played an important role during the evolution of the studied volcanics.

Cellulose is the most common polymer in the world, formed by β-1,4 linked glucopyranose units. In this study, citrus peels (lemon, mandarin, orange and grapefruit) were used for the production of bacterial cellulose (BC). The peels were hydrolyzed with dilute acid and hydrolysates were used for BC production. The production of BC was carried out at 28–32 °C for 21 days under static conditions with Komagataeibacter hansenii GA2016. BC yields were found to be between 2.06 and 3.92%. It was found that the FTIR spectra of the BCs produced in citrus peel hydrolysates were similar to BC produced in the commercially available nutrients. The result of this study showed that all the BCs produced from citrus peels were characterized to have high water holding capacity, thin fiber diameter, high the thermal stability and high crystallinity.

- Kitap BölümüYalnız künye2019Country of origin image and consumer knowledge effects on product evaluation and purchase intention
Izmir, Onur
Introduction Consumers daily face lots of purchase decisions when they are buying products and services (Bas et al., 2016). They rely on some certain elements of the products to make the right decision about which product to buy. Some rely on extrinsic cues such as brand, country of origin (COO), store name, and price, while others take into account intrinsic cues of the intended product such as taste, smell, design, and durability (Wall et al., 1991; Chao, 1998). Consumers are inclined to make inferences regarding a given product depending on the information and experience level that they have with it (Johansson et al., 1985; Han, 1989, 1990). There is a well-known positive relationship between price and the quality (Zeithaml, 1988). COO information also provides consumers with some insight about the quality of the product (Li and Wyer, 1994) as such consumers attribute some certain features to certain countries (Ahmed and d’Astous, 1993; Verlegh and Steenkamp, 1999). Consumers develop stereotypes concerning “made in” labels of the products (Han, 1990; Ahmed et al., 2004). For instance, Germany is famous for its high-quality and high-durability automobiles; Japan is a well-known country in terms of its high-technology products especially in electronics; Italy and France are good at design and fashion and so on. There is also a negative association between some countries and consumer’s perception. For example, Chinese products are perceived negatively in terms of quality (Verlegh and Steenkamp, 1999; Kinra, 2006; Kerboucheet al., 2012). As a consequence,….

Turan, Melikşah; Oral, Vildan; Kaya, Afşin Ahmet
Introduction Disasters cause losses in various dimensions throughout the world. They lead to social, psychological, political and cultural changes as well as economic burdens for countries. People have been facing disasters since the beginning of human history. Information about disasters occurring in different parts of the world has been found in the oldest known records. Thousands of people have lost their lives in these disasters. (Akgiray et al., 2004: 77). Natural disasters cause significant economic losses and the loss of life for countries (Erkal and Degerliyurt, 2009). According to the statistics in Turkey, natural disasters result in economic losses equal to 1.1 % of Gross National Product each year (Aktürk and Albeni, 2002). However, considering indirect economic losses such as loss of production and unemployment, total loss is estimated to be greater than 1 % of gross national product (Erkal and Degerliyurt, 2009). It is possible to estimate the economic effects of the disasters by considering factors which are affected by the disasters. When the 1999 Marmara Earthquakes in Turkey is evaluated in terms of both loss of income and loss of national wealth, the total estimated cost is between 9 million dollars and 13 billion dollars according to the State Planning Organization of Turkey and 6-10 billion dollars according to the World Bank (Akgiray et al., 2004: 77). Estimations about the economic effects of the 1999 Marmara Earthquakes suggest the following figures: the reconstruction of damaged buildings is estimated….

Gul, Fatih
A metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS)-based circuit model that emulates a TiO2 memristor is proposed in this study. First, a TiO2 (10-nm active layer thickness)-based memristor device was fabricated. The structural properties of the device were confirmed via energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The memristive characteristics of the device were resolved by applying a time-dependent voltage. The typical pinched hysteresis memristive loops of the current-voltage curves were obtained. After physical implementation and characterization of the device, a circuit model was implemented using only four MOS transistors to emulate the fabricated TiO2 memristor. In addition to emulating the fabricated memristor, the proposed circuit model is suitable for use in general memristor-based applications. No active element or circuit blocks were used in the circuit to achieve memristive characteristics. The simulation and experimental results are in good agreement; moreover, the circuit is very simple compared to those presented in previous studies in the literature and it was able to emulate the fabricated memristor. All simulations were completed using 180 nm TSMC CMOS process parameters.
