ESTIMATION OF COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF CEMENT MORTARS
(2016)
Due to several advantages of cementitious materials especially mortars, they are widely used in construction works. It is important to determine the mechanical properties of cementitious materials to understand their ...
Cost Optimization of Mortars Containing Different Pigments and Their Freeze-Thaw Resistance Properties
(2016)
Nowadays, it is common to use colored concrete or mortar in prefabricated concrete and reinforced concrete construction elements. Within the scope of this study, colored mortars were obtained with the addition of brown, ...
An accurate toponym-matching measure based on approximate string matching
(APR)
Approximate string matching (ASM) is a challenging problem, which aims to match different string expressions representing the same object. In this paper, detailed experimental studies were conducted on the subject of toponym ...
The effect of Reiki on depression in elderly people living in nursing home
(JAN)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of Reiki on depression in elderly persons living in nursing homes. The study was conducted randomized, controlled and experimental. The study universe consisted of 170 elderly ...
Effect of centrifugation time on growth factor and MMP release of an experimental platelet-rich fibrin-type product
(2016)
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) has a controlled release of growth factors due to the fibrin matrix structure. Different centrifugation protocols were suggested for PRF preparation. Since the derivation method of PRF can alter ...
Bone marrow radiation dosimetry of high dose I-131 treatment in differentiated thyroid carcinoma patients
(APR)
Background: Radiation absorbed dose to the red bone marrow, a critical organ in the therapy of thyroid carcinoma, is generally kept below 2 Gy for non-myeloablative therapies. The aim of this study was to calculate bone ...
Human-wildlife conflict as a barrier to large carnivore management and conservation in Turkey
(2016)
Large carnivorous mammals are wide-ranging animals and thus frequently come into contact with human settlements in agrarian landscapes. This often generates human-wildlife conflict; carnivores potentially damage livestock, ...
The Relationship Among Personality, Cognitive Anxiety, Somatic Anxiety, Physiological Arousal, and Performance in Male Athletes
(MAR)
The present study examined the association between personality, competitive anxiety, somatic anxiety and physiological arousal in athletes with high and low anxiety levels. Anxiety was manipulated by means of an incentive. ...
Fuzzy Conceptual Hydrological Model for Water Flow Prediction
(JAN)
Reliability in flow prediction is key to designing water resources projects. Over prediction may result in overdesign whereas under prediction brings about insufficient capacity solutions. While the former means insufficient ...
APPROXIMATE DETERMINATION OF POLYNOMIAL ROOTS
(2016)
Three theorems are given for approximate determination of magnitudes of polynomial roots. A definition for the order of a number is given first. The first theorem is for a polynomial equation with all coefficients the same ...
