    Interpolation Method Used To Determine The Height Of Geoid, Application Of The Trabzon City Data, Turkey

    Karaaslan, Özge; Kayıkçı, Emine Tanır; Aşık, Yusuf

    Finding the spatial extent of known height used in engineering works quite time-consuming process that requires a difficult and cost. But the less time it takes the ellipsoid heights transformation into orthometric height with GNSS measurements available and easier. It also has a certain precision and sensitivity for the conversion geoid height values must be known. This practice in Trabzon Land Registry IX. Regional Directorate of cadastral works in east-west direction of 80 km, measured orthometric and ellipsoidal heights in the 600 C3 point values created in an area 30 km long north-south direction is used. the point ITRF96 (International Terrestrial Reference Frame-International Terrestrial Reference Network) datums based on 3-dimensional Cartesian coordinates and Gauss Krüger projection coordinates are known. The study is divided into two basis points according to the method and test points. Fulcrums x and y axis directions and the distribution of points is chosen uniformly reflected by the orthometric height. In this study, the polynomial interpolation surfaces, interpolation with multiquadratic surfaces with interpolation surface obtained by the method of weighted average method is used. in selected mainstay, known aware of the ellipsoidal and the orthometric height using the calculated geoid height, calculated orthometric heights for the test points with different interpolation methods, at this point in the known calculating the difference from the known height has made comparisons between the interpolation method

    A STUDY - CONCERNING THE SOLUTION PROCESS IN TURKEY-RELATED TO HOFSTEDE'S AVOIDANCE OF UNCERTAINTY IN THE CONTEXT OF CULTURAL DIMENCION BEFORE 7th JUNE 2015 PARLIAMENTARY ELECTION

    Güllupünar, Hasan; Gümüsok, Seyfullah

    An individual's attitudes and behaviours differ depending upon the circumstances in which it is located. In a significant environment in terms of cause and effect, the rational aspects of an individual's attitudes and behaviours dominate. Therefore, an affirmative perspective has control over the individual's attitudes and behaviours. But in the case of increased uncertainty in terms of cause and effect, radical tendency in an individual's attitudes and behaviours are increasing to avoid uncertainty. This case causes the parties diverging from each other in the matter of solutions for social problems. This study deals with the perception types related to the 'solution process 'that has been initiated for the solution of Kurdish issue in Turkey which is one of the most important problem since the foundation of Republic and the effects of these perception types on the future of solution process. For his purpose, a research has been carried out in Gumushane and Sirnak where different approaches are prevailing about the solution process. In the study with the simple random sampling method, 300 people in Sirnak and 250 people in Gumushane were included with face to face interview. The study, in which five types of perception about the solution process have been revealed, has concluded that those who have an affirmative perspective about the solution process support the continuation of this process and taking further steps about the issue. However, it is clearly seen that those who have concerns or negative perceptions regarding the solution process propose harder and strict actions related to the solution of Kurdish issue. Therefore, in perception types dominated by uncertainty, more radical tendency has been observed in the attitudes about the solution process.

    Fidan, M. Said; Yasar, S. Sadiye; Yasar, Mehmet; Atar, Musa; Alkan, Elif

    The present study investigated the effect of various types of impregnating and surface treatment materials on the fire resistance of wood material indoors and outdoors. Wood samples (Cedrus libani A. Rich.) were impregnated with Wolmanit-CB or Tanalith-E according to ASTM D1413-76 (American Society for Testing and Materials 1976). The impregnated surface was treated with either synthetic or water-based outdoor varnish materials. The impregnated and varnished samples were left in outdoor conditions for 1 year. The combustion characteristics of the samples were investigated at the end of 1 year according to the combustion parameters detailed in the ASTM E160-50 (1975) combustion test. The results of this study indicated that the combustion parameters were lower in the 1-year-old samples (89.12% of control values), in the samples impregnated using Wolmanit-CB (89.18% of control values), and in samples treated using water-based varnish (88.43% of control values). The analysis of flue gas indicated that the O-2 content of the 1-year-old samples impregnated with Wolmanit-CB and treated with synthetic varnish was higher, whereas the CO content was lower. In conclusion, impregnated Wolmanit-CB specimens provide higher fire resistance.

    Disease and Death in the Modern Culture: On Now and Eternity

    Demir, Sertac Timur

    This paper is basically about nowism as a representation of modernity rather than a temporal fragment, about cancer as philosophical reference rather than as a biological illness, and about death as constructive value rather than as a destructive experience. All these representation-loaded concepts are dealt with through the story of Tessa, the protagonist in the film Now is Good (2012). In the liquid modernity, on the one hand nowist orientations, tendencies and acts are wryly reduced to a cliche: Carpe diem (seize the day) and on the other hand temporal uncertainty of death implies the essential principle of memento mori (remember you will die) or Mutu qabla an tamutu (die before you die). The now is, as a worldview beyond a temporality, not merely good, but perhaps the God of the modern society. However, deadly cancer, which is an uninvited guest, nullifies this modern doctrine that commercializes the now as eternity and immortality itself. Cancer that marks death and the sense of chaos what cancer stirs are antithesis and perhaps antidote of the liquid modernity. This paper, for the very reason, unexpectedly affirms death while criticising the nowist culture.

    The Concept of mas'ala in Islamic Jursiprudence

    Yilmaz, Fetullah

    The subject of this article is the concept of mas'ala (issue) in Islamic jurisprudence in terms of the logic of pre-modern science. Within this framework, formal structure and content of mas'ala and facts in which it consists, and some related subjects are dealt with in this paper. There are initial principles must be known before starting all science. The concept mas'ala is one of these. Mas'ala, which is a conclusion sentence aimed to be reached, consists of a topic and a verb. In fiqh, the topic of mas'ala is act of responsible, while its verb is religious decision. In addition to some questions about the topic of Islamic jurisprudential concerns, there are also some problems on its verb. Concerns in fiqh are separated into sections such as relevant area, generality, characteristic, clarity and obscurity. Apart from these matters, in this article, it is touched also on some contemporary approaches on the concept mas'ala.

    Saccharin as Substitute Goods in Ottoman State

    Damlibag, Fatih

    Constantin Fahlberg invented saccharin during the end of 1870's. Saccharin was a product that it has strong sweetening power. Potential to sugar substitute and support of German government were provided to enlarge its market rapidly. But due to its chemical origin, some medical concerns were shown towards this product. Some doctors thought that usage of saccharin caused health problems. Due to these medical concerns, many European governments banned or restricted the entrance of this product to their countries. Fahlberg thought that his product did not deserve these critiques. According to him, critiques were originated from shaken interests of sugar industry. Near to 1900's, saccharin also entered Ottoman market. Similarly, it was also criticized by Ottoman doctors. In front of this situation, approach of Ottoman State towards saccharin happened within three stages. In the first stage, Ottoman officials did not foresee a risky situation for the usage of saccharin as a substitute for sugar. Because saccharin is a chemical drug for diabetes disease and sugar prices were very convenient. As to second stage, critiques to saccharin were taken into account. High sugar prices of this period were caused some probable risks of food fraud according to officials. Additionally, medical studies of the period provided more information about probable risks of saccharin. As a result of this situation, Ottoman State applied quantitative restrictions in saccharin import. In addition, the product could be only brought by pharmacists. Third period of saccharin in Ottoman State happened within compelling conditions of World War I. After extreme increases in sugar prices; there was an excessive demand for illegal usage of saccharin, because sugar almost disappeared from market. In front of this situation, official permission was given to saccharin usage with some restrictions.

    Therotical investigation of the effects of diesel fuel, biodiesel fuel and their blends on internal combsution engines

    Sezer, Ismet

    In this study; the effects of diesel fuel, the soybean oil methyl ester (SOME) biodiesel fuel and their blends at various percentages on the spray and combustion characteristics and engine performance and exhaust emissions of diesel engines investigated as theoretically. For this purpose, a model has been built for a direct injection diesel engine in a commercial vehicle by the Diesel-RK software program that can be used liberally on the net. The obtained values for diesel (D) and biodiesel (BD) fuels and D-BD fuel blends via the constructed model were compared. The results of the study show that BD fuel generally provides a close brake thermal efficiency values to diesel fuel. Additionally, BD fuel causes decrements in engine power and particulate matter (PM-soot) emission and increments in specific fuel consumption and nitric oxides (NOx) emission. On the other hand, D-BD fuel blends at various blend ratios have usually given the spray, combustion, performance, and emission values between those of diesel and biodiesel fuels.

    New Communication Technologies, Local Journalism and the Perception of Locality

    Özcan, Ali

    Studies on local journalism as an important element of participatory democracy generally focus on the history of the local press, the financial insufficiencies of local newspapers as well as technical/technological incompetency that occurs as a result of these factors. This research analyzes local newspapers with a new scientific point of view by focusing on the perception of locality as a mental projection of geographical constraint. Perspectives regarding the transformations on perceptions of locality as a result of the disappearance of time and space constraints due to new communication technologies, and the opportunities that new communication environments offer to local newspapers will be provided. Moreover, the ways in which local newspapers reflect on locality with their printed versions under time and space constraints will be analyzed. The research scope of the study has been limited to 15 newspapers in Konya. Structured interviews and content analysis methods were used for data collection and analysis.

    Assessment of Left Atrial Mechanics in Patients with Preexcitation Syndrome Scheduled for Catheter Ablation

    Karakoyun, Suleyman; Tanboga, Ibrahim Halil; Gökdeniz, Tayyar; Lazoglu, Zakir; Topçu, Selim; Karal, Huseyin; Aksakal, Enbiya; Sevimli, Serdar

    ObjectivesWe aimed to test the left atrial (LA) mechanics and contraction synchrony by 2D strain imaging, in patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome, before and after radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA). MethodsStudy population consisted of 25 patients with WPW scheduled for RFCA and 30 healthy controls. The peak LA strain at the end of the ventricular systole (LAs strain) and the LA strain with LA contraction (LAa Strain) were obtained. To assess LA dyssynchrony, septal versus lateral wall time-to-peak strain measurements were measured. ResultsThere was no difference between the patients with WPW and control subjects with regard to peak LAs and LAa strain. Patients with WPW demonstrated higher global time-to-peak LAs and LAa strain values compared with the control group. Peak LAs strain and LAa strain values, measured before and after the RF ablation of the accessory pathway, were comparable (34.33.92 vs. 34.6 +/- 3.2, P=0.816, 14.7 +/- 2.8 vs. 15.3 +/- 2.3, P=0.052, respectively). Global time-to-peak LAs and LAa strain measurements were significantly shorter after the RFCA compared with the values obtained before the RFCA. However, septo-lateral times to peak LA strain differences were found to be comparable in both WPW versus control and pre- versus postablation groups. ConclusionLA mechanical function assessed by 2D strain imaging was comparable between patients with WPW and control subjects. Patients with WPW had more prominent LA dyssynchrony during atrial pump phase as compared with the controls, a condition which could not improve after successful elimination of the accessory pathway by RFCA.

    Mechanical Bowel Preparation Does Not Affect Anastomosis Healing in an Experimental Rat Model

    Piroglu, Isilay; Tulgar, Serkan; Thomas, David Terence; Cakiroglu, Basri; Piroglu, Mustafa Devrim; Bozkurt, Yasin; Gergerli, Ruken; Ates, Nagihan Gozde

    Background: Mechanical bowel preparation before colorectal surgery is commonly performed, but its benefits are controversial. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of mechanical bowel preparation on healing of colonic anastomosis and tissue strength. Material/Methods: After institutional review board approval, 20 adult Wistar albino rats were randomly divided into 2 groups of 10 animals each. Mechanical bowel preparation including sodium phosphate was performed on the experimental group via a feeding tube, whereas no bowel preparation procedures were performed on the control group. Transverse colon resection and anastomosis were performed on all rats under general anaesthesia. On postoperative day 5, re-laparotomy was performed and the anastomotic areas were resected. Animals were killed, after which bursting pressure and tissue hydroxyproline concentrations were measured, histopathological examination was performed, and we evaluated and compared the results. Results: There were no differences between control and experimental groups in bursting pressure, tissue hydroxyproline concentrations, or histopathological examination results (P>0.05). Conclusions: Our study demonstrated no significant difference between bursting pressures, tissue hydroxyproline levels, or modified wound healing score at postoperative day 5 between rats undergoing and not undergoing mechanical bowel preparation. Mechanical bowel preparation is not essential for healing or strength of colonic anastomosis in rats.

    Abnormal white matter integrity as a structural endophenotype for bipolar disorder

    Sariçiçek, A.; Zorlu, N.; Yalin, N.; Hidiroglu, C.; Çavusoglu, B.; Ceylan, D.; Ada, E.; Tunca, Z.; Özerdem, A.

    Background. Several lines of evidence suggest that bipolar disorder (BD) is associated with white matter (WM) pathology. Investigation of unaffected first-degree relatives of BD patients may help to distinguish structural biomarkers of genetic risk without the confounding effects of burden of illness, medication or clinical state. In the present study, we applied tract-based spatial statistics to study WM changes in patients with BD, unaffected siblings and controls. Method. A total of 27 euthymic patients with BD type I, 20 unaffected siblings of bipolar patients and 29 healthy controls who did not have any current or past diagnosis of Axis I psychiatric disorders were enrolled in the study. Results. Fractional anisotropy (FA) was significantly lower in BD patients than in the control group in the corpus callosum, fornix, bilateral superior longitudinal fasciculus, inferior longitudinal fasciculus, inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus, anterior thalamic radiation, posterior thalamic radiation, cingulum, uncinate fasciculus, superior corona radiata, anterior corona radiata and left external capsule. In region-of-interest (ROI) analyses, we found that both unaffected siblings and bipolar patients had significantly reduced FA in the left posterior thalamic radiation, the left sagittal stratum, and the fornix compared with healthy controls. Average FA for unaffected siblings was intermediate between the healthy controls and bipolar patients within these ROIs. Conclusions. Decreased FA in the fornix, left posterior thalamic radiation and left sagittal stratum in both bipolar patients and unaffected siblings may represent a potential structural endophenotype or a trait-based marker for BD.

    Ultrasonographic assessment of the shoulder in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome

    Mansiz Kaplan, Basak; Yagci, Ilker; Akdeniz Leblebicier, Merve

    Objectives: To detect the causes of shoulder pain with shoulder ultrasonography in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) and compare the findings of the patients with CTS to healthy controls. Patients and Methods: Patients with CTS and healthy controls were evaluated clinically, electrophysiologically. and ultrasonographically by three masked researchers. Electrophysiological assessment consisted median and ulnar nerve conduction studies (NCS). In ultrasonographic assessment, cross-sectional areas of the median nerve were measured at hamatum hook, psiform bone, radio-ulnar joint levels. Shoulder joint, axial and longitudinal biceps tendon, subscapularis tendon, supraspinatus tendon, infraspinatus tendon, rotator cuff, acromioclavicular joint were evaluated by a standardized protocol. Results: The study was completed with 30 patients with CTS and 30 healthy subjects. The presence of shoulder pain in the last week was 53.3% in the CTS group and 30% in the control group but there was no statistically significant difference between the groups (p=0.16; p>0.05). Subdeltoid bursitis was significantly more common in CTS group when compared to the control group (p=0.03) in ultrasonographic assessment, and there was no significant difference between the two groups for other parameters. Conclusion: Shoulder pain and subdeltoid bursitis were common in patients with CTS however, shoulder pain was not directly related to shoulder problems alone. Central sensitization may play a role for shoulder pain rather than shoulder problems.
