Yanik, Yusuf; Türker, Temel; Çalik, Ismet; Yildirim, Ömer
Historical structures are important pieces that connect past to present. Historical structures damaged for various reasons should be restored, repaired and strengthened. After these processes, the behavior of historical structures affected by environmental and time-dependent effects should be followed. For this purpose, current structural behavior of historical structures should be determined. Methods based on the dynamic characteristics of structure are very effective in the evaluation of structural behavior. In this study, dynamic characteristics of Tabakhane and Haci Kasim Muhittin Mosque Minarets in Trabzon province with different environmental conditions and different time intervals were experimentally obtained and compared. Experimental measurements of these minarets were carried out under environmental vibrations with Civil Engineering Vibration System (CEVS), which was developed by our research team, which can receive wired and wireless data. In Tabakhane Mosque Minaret, two measurements taken at different times before restoration and two measurements taken at different times after restoration were evaluated and compared each other. Measurement results of Haci Kasim Muhittin Cami Minaret before and after restoration and two measurements results taken at different times long after restoration were evaluated. The measurement data were analyzed separately in Civil Engineering Vibration Analysis (CEVA) program developed by our research team and in ARTEMIS program. In addition, dynamic characteristics obtained as a result of signal processing for both minarets were compared with previous studies. The reasons for differences in these values were examined depending on environmental condition and time.

In this research, the microbiological, physicochemical, rheological, textural, sensory properties and antioxidant activity of blueberry pulp added (0, 4%, 8% and 12%) strained yoghurt samples were investigated during a 28 day storage period. The Lactobacillus delbrueckii spp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus counts in the samples were found to have decreased at the end of the storage period. The lightness, yellowness/blueness and whiteness index values showed a decrease depending on the addition of blueberry, while the redness/greenness values increased. The addition of blueberry had a negative the effects on the fat and protein values, while it had a positive effect on the total solids values. The storage period did not significantly change any of the physicochemical, colorimetric or rheological properties of the strained yoghurt samples. The general acceptability scores of the sample containing 12% blueberry were higher than the other samples. The antioxidant activities and total phenolic content of the strained yoghurt samples increased in accordance with blueberry concentration, while the firmness and work of the shear values decreased. In conclusion, it was determined that the addition of blueberry pulp at a 12% ratio could be used to enhance the nutritional and functional properties of strained yoghurts.

Manshouri, Negin; Melek, Mesut; Kaylkcloglu, Temel
Despite the long and extensive history of 3D technology, it has recently attracted the attention of researchers. This technology has become the center of interest of young people because of the real feelings and sensations it creates. People see their environment as 3D because of their eye structure. In this study, it is hypothesized that people lose their perception of depth during sleepy moments and that there is a sudden transition from 3D vision to 2D vision. Regarding these transitions, the EEG signal analysis method was used for deep and comprehensive analysis of 2D and 3D brain signals. In this study, a single-stream anaglyph video of random 2D and 3D segments was prepared. After watching this single video, the obtained EEG recordings were considered for two different analyses: the part involving the critical transition (transition state) and the state analysis of only the 2D versus 3D or 3D versus 2D parts (steady state). The main objective of this study is to see the behavioral changes of brain signals in 2D and 3D transitions. To clarify the impacts of the human brain's power spectral density (PSD) in 2D-to-3D (2D_3D) and 3D-to-2D (3D_2D) transitions of anaglyph video, nine visual healthy individuals were prepared for testing in this pioneering study. Spectrogram graphs based on short time Fourier transform (STFT) were considered to evaluate the power spectrum analysis in each EEG channel of transition or steady state. Thus, in 2D and 3D transition scenarios, important channels representing EEG frequency bands and brain lobes will be identified. To classify the 2D and 3D transitions, the dominant bands and time intervals representing the maximum difference of PSD were selected. Afterward, effective features were selected by applying statistical methods such as standard deviation, maximum (max) and Hjorth parameters to epochs indicating transition intervals. Ultimately, k-nearest neighbors, support vector machine and linear discriminant analysis (LDA) algorithms were applied to classify 2D_3D and 3D_2D transitions. The frontal, temporal and partially parietal lobes show 2D_3D and 3D_2D transitions with a good classification success rate. Overall, it was found that Hjorth parameters and LDA algorithms have 71.11% and 77.78% classification success rates for transition and steady state, respectively.

Komut, Osman
The Covid 19 pandemic has led to considerable destruction of social and economic areas at a global level. This study aims to determine the economic impact of the Covid 19 pandemic on the Turkish forestry sector. In this context, 5 years (from 2017 to 2021) of wood-based product sales of an administrative unit, which carries out regional forestry activities in Turkey, were studied. The data concerning the product groups were subjected to a Laspeyres price index analysis based on the base period weight through the price and estimated price increase rate variables. In addition, correlation analysis was utilized to determine the relationships between the determined variables. The findings showed that the Covid 19 pandemic led to decreases in the Laspeyres price index values for the price and estimated price increase rates when compared with the pre-pandemic period, which was different on a product group’s basis. As a result, it can be said that the Covid 19 pandemic process created a considerable potential for a loss of income in wood-based products, which is one of the primary outputs of the forestry sector, and as of 2021, a recovery process has started.

Külekçi, Gökhan; Vural, Alaaddin; Aliyazicioğlu, Şener
Excavability is a measure of material which can be excavated with classical excavation equipment. Studies to decide the rock excavability characteristics contribute to the suitability of engineering projects. In this study, a limestone quarry (in Bayburt, Turkey) was analysed with excavability classification systems and appropriate systems were determined. To accomplish this aim, point load index and Schmidt hardness tests were practiced and changed to uniaxial compressive strength tests. After that, findings were categorized with classification systems in excavation and matched against practices from field. In this study, rock mass was addressed as “pre-explosion”, “hard ripping” and “hammer and blasting” in accordance with distinctive classification systems. All determined as rock mass should be blasted for loosening then dug with hydraulic breakers. This practice is totally compatible with in-site excavations fulfilled. According to study results, the most suitable parameters to decide surface excavational classification are load strength index, geological strength index and the degree of rock mass weathering

Pekmez is a concentrated syrup-like food conventionally produced by vacuum evaporation process from sugar-rich fruits. In this study, the applicability of grape pekmez production by ohmic heating assisted vacuum evaporation (ΩVE) method was investigated. Conventional vacuum evaporation (CVE) and ΩVE methods were compared in terms of physicochemical properties, HMF (5-hydroxymethylfurfural) contents, rheological properties, and energy consumptions. ΩVE was run at four different voltage gradients (17.5, 20, 22.5, and 25 V/cm). Total process times for grape pekmez production were determined as 57, 28.5, 32, 39, and 50 minutes for CVE, ΩVE (25 V/cm), ΩVE (22.5 V/cm), ΩVE (20 V/cm) and ΩVE (17.5 V/cm), respectively. Energy consumption of CVE method was higher than ΩVE method for all voltage gradients. Energy efficiency increased as the voltage gradient increased. There was no significant difference between CVE and ΩVE methods for HMF contents. The results show that the ΩVE method could be an alternative to the CVE process for grape pekmez production.

In the presented research, five different ratios of flaxseed powder (FSP) (0, 0.25%, 0.50%, 0.75%, and 1%) were used in yoghurt production, and the samples were stored overall 28 days at refrigerator (+4 °C). The effect of FSP and the storage period on acidity, pH, syneresis, water holding capacity, rheological, viscosity, colorimetric, microbiological, and sensory properties of yoghurts were investigated. The acidity, syneresis values of yoghurt samples decreased with the addition of FSP, conversely, the pH, water holding capacity values of the samples increased. The increments in the viscosity (50 and 100 rpm) and consistency coefficient values were observed depending upon the FSP ratio except for the sample containing 1% FSP. All yoghurt samples had pseudoplastic flow behavior. It was determined that the colorimetric parameters of samples changed significantly with the addition of FSP. The L* and white index values of samples containing FSP decreased. Other colorimetric parameters indicated significant differences based on the addition of FSP and storage. The addition of FSP was not caused any negative effect on counts of Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus. The Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus and mouldsyeasts counts were consistent with the Codex Alimentarius and the Turkish Food Codex. The sample containing 1% FSP had the lowest evaluation scores in terms of all sensory properties. Therefore, FSP should not use more than 0.75%. Using of the 0.25% FSP in yoghurts could recommend for improve physicochemical, rheological and sensory properties of yoghurts

Arslan, Mehmet; Temi̇Zel, İrfan; Abdi̇Oğlu Yazar, Emel; Ar, Bahrican; Yücel, Cem
The highly siderophile element (HSE) or platinum group element (PGE) and Os isotope systematics of basaltic volcanics have recently received a significant attention because of their potential to constrain the petrological processes on magma generation and evolution. The HSE and Os isotope data, which are generally observed at very low concentrations in basalts and obtained by modern enrichment and analytical techniques, are frequently used in petrological studies. The HSE contents and ratios from whole-rock analysis of basalts, and combined evaluation with the theoretical knowledge and modelling of HSE behaviour during the partial melting of mantle and the differentiation of basaltic magma would provide opportunity for geochemical modelling on mantle melting. Besides, HSE contents and Pd-PGE/Ir-PGE ratios are important indicators for the nature of mantle sulfides, the sulfur saturation conditions of the mantle source, sulfide segregation, fractional crystallization, crustal assimilation and partial melting degrees in the origin and evolution of mantle-derived magmas. Therefore, in addition to the traditional whole-rock geochemical data obtained from Cenozoic aged basalts observed widely in Turkey, HSE and Os isotope systematics of these basalts can contribute to define the geochemical features of the mantle source, and to model petrological processes which are effective in the magma evolution.

BACKGROUND: Musculoskeletal disorders are a significant public health issue that negatively affects individuals and society both socially and economically, and increases the cost of care and cure. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to determine the musculoskeletal problems and risk factors of academicians who transitioned to provide distance education during the COVID-19 pandemic. METHODS: The population of this descriptive cross-sectional study included academicians who worked in two public universities in Turkey. Ethical committee approval and institutional permissions were obtained between 1 and 28 February 2021. Data were collected using a personal information form, the Work Environment Evaluation Questionnaire, and the Musculoskeletal Pain Intensity Assessment Questionnaire. The data were analyzed using the number, percentage, independent group t-test, ANOVA test, and linear regression analysis (forward method). The analysis was interpreted at the 95% confidence level and 0.05 error margin. RESULTS: Of the academicians, 78% were women, 54.6% were married, 80.6% did not regularly exercise, and 73.5% had more workload during the distance education period. Academicians mostly experienced discomfort about their eyes, necks, and waists, and an increase at a significant level was detected in their musculoskeletal system problems during the distance education period. Increasing workload, duration of mobile phone use, active time, having an ergonomic chair, and gender predicted the musculoskeletal system pain intensity by 20%. CONCLUSION: Musculoskeletal system problems are a significant public health issue. Academicians should be informed and consulted for the protection of musculoskeletal system health during the distance education period.

Külekçi, Gökhan
To date, heavyweight concretes have been produced from various heavy aggregates as radiation insulation materials, and their gamma ray absorption levels have been investigated. Many of the studies have used heavy aggregates instead of cement or coarse aggregates from composite material components. The present study prepared lightweight concretes using copper mine tailings, clay brick dust, and fly ash instead of fine aggregates. Some mechanical tests (density, compressive strength, and ultrasonic pulse velocity) were performed on composite blocks with dimensions of 5*5*5 cm, and radiation interaction parameters [linear absorption coefficient (cm−1), mass attenuation coefficient (cm2/gr), HVL (half-value layer) (cm), MFP (cm), and permeability (%)] were measured. Radiation interaction parameters were obtained using a HPGe gamma detector. Radiation measurements were performed at five different photon energies: 583 keV (133Ba), 609 keV (133Ba), 662 keV (137Cs), 911 keV (133Ba), 1173 keV (60Co), and 1332 keV (60Co). Additionally, the compressive strength and UPV values of composite materials were associated with their gamma ray permeability. Tests revealed that samples with the addition of copper mine tailings yielded the best energy absorption at all energy levels and that absorption decreased as the energy level increased. For example, with the increasing of the energy level, mass attenuation coefficients decreased. The highest mass attenuation coefficients were obtained as 0.128 cm2/g at an energy level of 583 keV in composites produced from copper mine tailings. On the other hand, it was measured at the same energy level as 0.069 cm2/g (a 46% decrease) in the composites produced with fly ash. In addition, it was observed that fly ash used as a fine aggregate did not have a significant effect on mass attenuation coefficient and could be used as a gamma shield if the material thickness was increased to an average of 14 cm. This study revealed that tailings materials could be used as radiation shields. This study also demonstrated that not using heavy aggregates and producing lightweight concrete in radiation shield production significantly reduced shield production cost.

Altundaş, Suna
The in-situ gamma-ray spectrometry measurements are performed to define and map natural radionuclide variations and the possible uranium migration on the sandstone in the Central Anatolia Region and Deliler sites in Yozgat, Turkey. The concentrations of radionuclide (eU, eTh, K%) and dose rate values were measured totally on 384 points in both areas with a duration of 5 min at each measurement point. The radionuclide ratios (eTh/K, eU/K, and eU/eTh), geochemical indicators (Ume, F parameter and eU-(eTh/3,5) rate) of uranium remobilization in the rocks, and the hazard parameters were calculated and evaluated by using measured data. The separation of uranium-rich or poor areas was made easily and associated with lithological formations by evaluating all the maps produced together. While the highest concentrations of radionuclide, and dose rate values were recorded in the sandstone units under the cover layer that are Eocene neritic limestones, the lowest concentration values and dose rate were measured on siltstone and claystone in the northern part of the Tuğlu Tepe area. At the Deliler study area, the lower anomaly zones are coincide with the soils used for the cultivation of chickpeas consists of loosely cemented sandy clay siltstone, claystone, gravel, sand, silt, and clay whereas the highest concentrations observed in the outcropped sandstone and limestones. It can be seen that the study areas have variable radioactivity levels as a result of both the weathering from the surrounding granitic rocks and the transport and accumulation of sediments through different factors. On sandstones serving as reservoir rock for uranium mineralization in both Tuğlu Tepe and Deliler sites, there is a uranium migration from the granitic rocks towards these masses and sandstones have been enriched by uranium. As a result of the evaluations, it has been seen that the areas showing uranium enrichment originated from migration can be determined very easily by radioactivity measurements, which is a fast, economical and effective method.
