Şahin, Engin; Kılıç, Hamdullah; Törnük, Fatih; Dertli, Enes
Three new tricyclic pyrrolidinyl alcohols and three tricyclic pyrrolidinyl amines were synthesized, and the antibacterial activities of these compounds were tested against Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium, Escherichia coli O157:H7, Staphylococcus aureus, and Listeria monocytogenes. All tested pyrrolidinyl alcohols and amines showed antibacterial activity to the tested pathogens, but this activity was dependent on the final concentration of the tested compound, and the structure of these compounds were also important for this antibacterial activity. Of the tested compounds, (2R)-2-(octahydro-4,8-ethanocyclohepta[c] pyrrol2(1H)-yl)-2-phenylethanamine (2c) was the most effective compound among the tested pyrrolidinyl alcohols and amines. This study shows a good example of finding new antimicrobials in order to control pathogenic bacteria.

Sahin, Bayram; Ates, Ibrahim; Manay, Eyuphan; Bayrakceken, Abdulkadir; Celik, Cafer
The aim of this study is to optimize the design parameters of a heat sink on which hollow trapezoidal baffles are mounted on the bottom surface by using Taguchi experimental-design method. The Nusselt number and the friction factor are considered as performance parameters. An orthogonal array is selected as experimental plan for the six parameters: the corner angle (α), the inclination angle (β), the baffle height (H), the baffle length (L), the baffle width (S) and Reynolds number. First of all, each goal has been optimized, separately. Then, all the goals have been optimized together, considering the priority of the goals. The length of the baffle is found to be the most influential parameter on the friction factor. This can be attributed the enhanced effect of longitudinal vortices with baffle length in flow direction. Likewise, it is demonstrated that the most effective parameter on the heat transfer is Reynolds number. The results show that the baffle width (S) and the corner angle (α) have insignificant effect on Nusselt number. The maximum heat transfer was obtained at Re = 17,000, H = 36 mm, L = 45 mm, S = 26 mm, α = 0°, β = 0°. The inclination angle (β) and the baffle height (H) have nearly no effect on the friction factor. The minimum friction factor was obtained at Re = 17,000, H = 20 mm, L = 25 mm, S = 26 mm, α = 16°, β = 0°. The inclination angle (β) and the baffle height (H) have nearly no effect on the friction factor. It can be concluded that the higher heat transfer rates can be achieved with lower pressure drop penalty with this type of vortex generator in particular configurations.

Esen, Hatice; Hatipoğlu, Tuğçen; Cihan, Ahmet; Fiğlali, Nilgün
Introduction. Shift patterns, work hours, work arrangements and worker motivations have increasingly become key factors for job performance. The main objective of this article is to design an expert system that identifies the negative effects of shift work and prioritizes mitigation efforts according to their importance in preventing these negative effects. The proposed expert system will be referred to as the shift expert. Methods. A thorough literature review is conducted to determine the effects of shift work on workers. Our work indicates that shift work is linked to demographic variables, sleepiness and fatigue, health and well-being, and social and domestic conditions. These parameters constitute the sections of a questionnaire designed to focus on 26 important issues related to shift work. The shift expert is then constructed to provide prevention advice at the individual and organizational levels, and it prioritizes this advice using a fuzzy analytic hierarchy process model, which considers comparison matrices provided by users during the prioritization process. An empirical study of 61 workers working on three rotating shifts is performed. After administering the questionnaires, the collected data are analyzed statistically, and then the shift expert produces individual and organizational recommendations for these workers.

İncele - MakaleYalnız künye2019Scopus SJRQ2An approach to neutrosophic graph theory with applications
Şahin, Rıdvan
Graph theory that can be used to describe the relationships among several individuals has numerous applications in diverse fields such as modern sciences and technology, database theory, data mining, neural networks, expert systems, cluster analysis, control theory, and image capturing. As a generalization of fuzzy set (FS) and intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS), the concept of neutrosophic set is a more functional tool for handling indeterminate, inconsistent and uncertain information that exist in real life compared to FSs and IFSs. In this paper, we apply the graph theory to the single-valued neutrosophic sets and investigate a new kind of graph structure which is called single-valued neutrosophic graphs and is generalized the results concerning crisp graphs, fuzzy graphs and intuitionistic fuzzy graphs. Then we describe some of their theoretical properties, such as the Cartesian product, composition, union and join. By applying two different procedures to solve single-valued neutrosophic decision-making problems, a neutrosophic graph-based multicriteria decision-making model is developed to consider relationships among the multi-input arguments which cannot be handled well by means of the existing methods. Finally, two illustrative examples are given to demonstrate the applicability, feasibility, effectiveness and advantages of these two proposed approaches.

Chafik, Abdelbasset; Essamadi, Abdelkhalid; Çelik, Safinur Yildirim; Mavi, Ahmet
A novel copper, zinc superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD) was purified to homogeneity from the liver of an animal well adapted to the stressful living conditions of the desert, the camel (Camelus dromedarius). The biochemical properties of camel liver CuZnSOD were examined. The purified enzyme had a native molecular weight of 28 kDa, as judged by gel filtration chromatography, and showed a single band at 27 kDa on SDS-PAGE, indicating that it is a monomeric protein. Optimal activity of the purified enzyme occurred at 43 °C and pH 6.0, and the activation energy was 1.42 kJ/mol. CuZnSOD activity was strongly inhibited by β-ME, DTT, H 2 O 2 and SDS and slightly inhibited by EDTA, NaN 3 and PMSF. Al 3+ , Ca 2+ , Cd 2+ , Mg 2+ and Zn 2+ stimulated CuZnSOD activity, whereas Ba 2+ , Co 2+ , Fe 2+ and Ni 2+ inhibited it. The purified enzyme contained 0.010 µg of Cu and 0.69 µg of Zn per mg of protein. K m , V max , k cat and k cat /K m values for NBT and riboflavin were 16.27 and 0.16 µM, 20.85 and 21.54 U/mg, 9.65 and 9.97 s −1 , and 0.59 and 62.33 s -1 µM −1 , respectively. Camel liver CuZnSOD exhibited unique biochemical properties compared to those of other CuZnSODs, including lower molecular weight with a monomeric structure, higher optimum temperature, very low E a , very low optimum pH, very low contents of Cu and Zn, and higher affinity, turnover number and catalytic efficiency for riboflavin. These unique properties of camel liver CuZnSOD might be related to the ability of this animal to inhabit stressful desert conditions.

Ecem-Bayram, Nesrin; Gercek, Ynsuf Can
The importance of the use of natural products as nutritional supplements in order to increase the quality of life and prevent diseases has increased in recent years. Among these products, propolis produced by honey bees is collected from plants and has a very complex structure in terms of chemical content. Propolis and its extracts have been used by humans for centuries because of its various bioactive properties. Although different methods can be used in the extraction stage, the most commonly used technique is extraction by maceration. However, there is no standard time period for extraction of propolis by maceration. We aimed to determine the changes in the concentrations of flavonoid group compounds pinocembrin, chrysin, tectochrysin, pi-nostrobin chalcone, gengwanin, naringenin and galangin from propolis samples exposed to seven different periods (1, 2, 5 10, 15, 20, 30 days) of maceration using GC-MS. The flavonoids pinocembrin, chrysin, tectochrysin, and naringenin reached their maximum concentrations at the end of 15 days of maceration and a decrease in their concentrations was observed after this period. The concentrations of other flavonoids did not show a steady increase or decrease with different maceration times. As a result, it can be said that the appropriate duration of maceration to extract the flavonoids responsible for propolis' numerous activities varies depending on the origin of the propolis and the nature of the compounds to be extracted.

The purpose of this study was to contribute toward characterizing the general properties of the Onobrychis Miller (sainfoin) honey.We analyzed 21 samples of Onobrychis honeys, which were collected in 2013, from Northeast Anatolia according to their microscopic and physicochemical features (fructose/glucose (F/G) ratio, 5-(hydroxymethyl) furan-2-carbaldehyde (HMF) value, and volatile compounds). The relationships were examined between these variables with statistical methods such as principal component, regression, and correlation analyses. Statistical analyses revealed certain correlation patterns between several parameters. Onobrychis radiata (Desf.) M. Bieb., O. tournefortii (Willd.) Desv., O. oxyodonta Boiss. and Onobrychis spp. pollens were identified.TPN-10 ranged from 6532 to 481157 while the HMF values were between 0.1-7.5 mg/kg and F/G ratios were between 0.8-1.3. Alcohols, aldehydes, aliphatic acids and their esters, carboxylic acids and their esters, hydrocarbons, flavonoids, ketones, sugars and vitamins were identified in the honey samples within ranges of 0-11.95%, 0-16.76%, 0-24.72%, 0-1.86%, 0-14.71%, 2.74-7.09%, 0-27.02%, 5.12-51.39%, and 0-21.36%, respectively.Although it was not significant, a positive correlation between flavonoids and Onobrychis pollen number was calculated via correlation analysis. There was no meaningful correlation between Onobrychis pollen number and other parameters. Although a negative trend between flavonoids and sugars was observed, it was not significant. F/G ratio was found to be positively correlated with sugars, HMF, and TPN-10 of which the latter two parameters had significant values. Furthermore, a significant positive correlation between TPN-10 and HMF was also detected.

Cuce, Erdem; Nachan, Zaid; Cuce, Pinar Mert; Sher, Farooq; Neighbour, Gareth B.
Biomimicry is a relatively new discipline of applied science that seeks inspiration from natural systems for innovative solutions to human problems. Taking nature as ‘model, mentor and measure’ receives wide acceptance in the field of architecture but predominantly in conceptualising novel forms. The biomimicry concept is comprehensively analysed for its ability to provide more sustainable and possibly even regenerative built environments. As part of this study, first, various frameworks for approaching ‘biomimicry’ in general are discussed and then relevant examples pertaining to architecture are evaluated. Case studies are critiqued with respect to varied levels of sustainability achieved and its causative factors. In the second part, an approach model for ‘biomimetic architecture’ in the context of Mumbai is presented and applicable strategies based on climatic adaptation are suggested using local biodiversity as a library of organisms. The generic example of ‘human skin’ addressing the same adaptation is analysed and complemented by a state-of-the-art case study on similar lines. The results achieved clearly reveal that biomimicry is a successful approach to design and operate the sustainable built environments for the buildings of the future.

The purpose of the study was to analyze the po-tential health-pro mo ting components of some edible forest species of fruits. These are Service tree (Sor-bus domestica), Black rosehip (Rosa pimpinelli-folia), Red rosehip (Rosa carina), Bay fruit {Lawns nobilis), Cornelian cherry (Cornus mas), Autumn-olive (Elaeagrtus umbellate), and two different blue-berry fruits (Vaccinium arctostaplylos and Vaccin-ium myrtillus). In the present study, chemical and an-tioxidant activities, phenolic compounds as well as, inhibition effects on important enzymes (acetylcho-linesterase, xanthine oxidase and urease) of fruits were studied. Total polyphenol, flavonoid content, and the in-vitro antioxidant activity were evaluated by DPPH and FRAP. The sugar contents and phe-nolic compounds of the fruits were analyzed by HPLC-RJD and HPLC-UV. Fruits was determined the total polyphenol content (TPC) 1.10 to 19.87 mgGAE/g, total flavonoid content (TFC) 0.01 to 0.80 mgQE/g, DPPH values 0.22 to 6.03 mg/mL and FRAP values 4.24 to 168. 02 umol FeSO47H2O/g. All samples were determined various rate fructose and glucose. HPLC-UV revealed fruits contained different phenolic compounds. Inhibition values of the enzymes were expressed as inhibition concentra-tion (IC50: Mg/mL or ug/mL). It can be concluded that edible forest fruits are a potential source of anti-oxidants with therapeutic importance as well a natu-ral enzyme inhibitor.

Bayram, Nesrin Ecem
In this study, it is aimed to determine some physicochemical properties and pollen types of honey samples collected from different regions. Pollen profile, moisture content, HMF, proline, frutose/glucose and electrical conductivity were the parameters analysed in each honey sample. According to the results obtained, all honey samples obtained from different geographic origins were found to be consistent, in terms of the parameters analyzed, with the values given in the Turkish Food Codex Honey Communiqué (2012). It was found that only one honey sample did not comply with the values given in the codex in terms of frutose/glucose ratio. As a result of the melissopalynological experiment, three honey samples were found to be unifloral (two Castanea sativa and one Astragalus spp.) and the others were found to be polyfloral honey. The results obtained indicate that physicochemical properties of the honey samples produced at different points in Turkey differ greatly in accordance with the diversity of the flora of the region.

Boz, Fusun Celebi
As the growth theories before 1980 fell short in explaining the developmental differences in countries and could not provide a solution to the problems of underdeveloped countries, a necessity for new growth models emerged. In connection to the exogenous nature of technology, the perception that all countries can achieve economic growth depending on capital stock and employment volume was in time replaced by the effectiveness of institutional and social factors in this process, and it was seen that other factors rather than economic factors would be influential in terms of achieving economic growth. In the scope of institutional factors, the political regimes of countries were aimed to be analyzed, and accordingly, strong institutional structures were associated with democracy. Thus, it may be stated that, while democratic regimes are dominant in developed societies, antidemocratic regimes are encountered in developing societies. In this context, the type of the political regime is considered to be the main variable for economic growth. As the type of the political regime was inadequate in completely explaining economic growth, the concept of political stability started to be considered in the literature (Telatar, 2003:74-75). The concept of political stability is important in terms of determination of economic policies in a country for the long-term rather than the short-term and for rational decisions by managers in the private sector. Moreover, political instability may lead to property issues by bringing about weaknesses in the legal system. This situation may affect.

Engin, M. Alptekin; Cavusoglu, Bulent
Demand for better retrieval methods continue to outstrip the capabilities of available technologies despite the rapid growth of new feature extraction techniques. Extracting discriminatory features that contain texture specific information are of crucial importance in image indexing. This paper presents a novel rotation invariant texture representation model based on the multi-resolution curvelet transform via co-occurrence and Gaussian mixture features for image retrieval and classification. To extract these features, curvelet transform is applied and the coefficients are obtained at each scale and orientation. The Gaussian mixture model (GMM) features are computed from each of the sub bands and co-occurrence features are computed for only specific sub band. Rotation invariance is provided by applying cycle-shift around the GMM features. The proposed method is evaluated on well-known databases such as Brodatz, Outex_TC_00010, Outex_TC_00012, Outex_TC_00012horizon, Outex_TC_00012tl84, Vistex and KTH-TIPS. When the feature vector is analyzed in terms of its size, it is observed that its dimension is smaller than that of the existing rotation-invariant variants and it has a very good performance. Simulation results show a good performance achieved by combining different techniques with the curvelet transform. Proposed method results in high degree of success rate in classification and in precision-recall value for retrieval.

Artar, Musa; Daloğlu, Ayşe T.
This study investigates optimum designs of steel space truss towers under seismic loading by using Jaya optimization algorithm. Turkish Earthquake Code (2007) specifications are applied on optimum designs of steel space truss towers under the seismic loading for different local site classes depending on different soil groups. The proposed novel algorithm does not have any algorithm-specific control parameters and depends only a simple revision equation. Therefore, it provides a practical solution for structural optimization problems. Optimum solutions of the different steel truss examples are carried out by selecting suitable W sections taken from American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC). In order to obtain optimum solutions, a computer program is coded in MATLAB in corporated with SAP2000-OAPI (Open Application Programming Interface). The stress and displacement constraints are applied on the design problems according to AISC-ASD (Allowable Stress Design) specifications. Firstly, a benchmark truss problem is examined to see the efficiency of Jaya optimization algorithm. Then, two different multi-element truss towers previously solved with other methods without seismic loading in literature are designed by the proposed algorithm. The first space tower is a 582-member space truss with the height of 80 m and the second space tower is a 942-member space truss of about 95 m height. The minimum optimum designs obtained with this novel algorithm for the case without seismic loading are lighter than the ones previously attained in the literature studies. The results obtained in the study show that Jaya algorithm is a practical and robust optimization method for structural optimization problems. Moreover, incorporation of the seismic loading causes significant increase in the minimum design weight.

Gökçe, H. Süleyman; Andiç-Çakır, Özge
Bleeding, a type of static segregation derives from density difference of concrete ingredients in fresh state. Due to having this difference higher than normal weight counterparts, heavyweight concrete is more susceptible to bleeding, thus, this type of concrete is commonly produced in low slump values. In order to give a response to advances and demands in concrete technology, heavyweight concrete mixtures with high slump values were designed at various mixture characteristics, and their bleeding characteristics were researched in the study. For this purpose, totally, thirty-five concrete mixtures with ≥150 mm slump values were produced by using common cement replacement materials (silica fume and fly ash), viscosity modifier, and various water/binder ratios at two binder dosages. The mixtures showed excessive bleeding capacities ranged from 0 to 11.7% and bleeding rates ranged from 0 to 5.1 kg/m2/h. Silica fume was found as the most effective admixture for reducing or elimination of the bleeding. Bleeding time generally shorten at high binder content and at high water/binder ratio. It was observed that the bleeding adversely affects the hardened characteristics of heavyweight concrete mixtures.

In this study, four bacterial strains were tested for their ability to reduce acetophenones to its corresponding alcohol. Among these strains Weissella paramesenteroides N7 was found to be the most successful biocatalyst to reduce the ketones to the corresponding alcohols. The reaction conditions were systematically optimized for W. paramesenteroides N7 that resulted in high enantioselectivity and conversion rates for the bioreduction. The scale-up asymmetric reduction of 1-(4-methoxyphenyl) propan-1-one (1r) by W. paramesenteroides N7 gave (R)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl) propan-1-ol (2r) with 94% yield and >99% enantiomeric excess. This is the first report showing the synthesis of (R)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl) propan-1-ol (2r) in enantiopure form using a biocatalyst on a gram scale. The whole cell catalyzed the reductions of ketone substrates on the preparative scale, demonstrating that W. paramesenteroides N7 would be a valuable biocatalyst for the preparation of chiral aromatic alcohols of pharmaceutical interest as a promising and alternative green approach.

This paper presents a dynamic analysis considering site-specific seismic characteristics for a masonry clock tower located at the city of Çorum, Turkey according to the new Turkish earthquake code. Finite element model of the tower was modeled using ANSYS software in order to determine numerical dynamic characteristics of the structure such as natural frequencies and mode shapes. Non-destructive experimental measurements were performed to extract the experimental dynamic characteristics. Experimental results were used as a reference parameter for finite element model updating to reflect the current structural behavior of clock tower. Model updating procedure was carried out by changing of initial material properties of structural stone elements, and maximum differences were reduced from 23.44% to 4.90%. Numerical results indicated that displacements have an increasing trend with the height of the clock tower. Furthermore, the maximum displacements occurred at the top point between the values of 18.88 mm to 42.5 mm. Numerical results also showed that both the maximum and minimum principal stresses occurred at the upper body (clock zone) walls and transition segment between the values of 1.08 MPa/2.86 MPa and − 0.87 MPa/−3.00 MPa, respectively. The maximum and minimum principal strains occurred at the upper body (clock zone) walls between the values of 0.65E-3/1.56E-3 and − 0.78E-3/−1.50E-3, respectively. It is also concluded that non-destructive experimental measurement is very useful method to evaluate in-situ structural identification, validate and update the initial finite element model for further analyses.

Enrichment of food products with beneficial Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) is an important methodology used to develop functional food products. Lactobacillus reuteri E81 was successfully nanoencapsulated into poly (vinyl alcohol)-based nanofibers for its application to the surface of fish fillets. The Scanning Electron Microscopy analysis confirmed the nanoencapsulation of L. reuteri E81 in electrospun nanofibers (LRNF) that had an average diameter of 381.83 ± 130.69 nm. LAB growth in rainbow trout fillets and fatty fish (mackerel) and were found to be 2.92 and in the range of 3.27 and 2.66 log CFU/g, respectively. Importantly, the antioxidative characteristics of fish fillets significantly increased following their coating with LRNF. The results revealed a significant increase in the inhibition of free radicals in the samples treated with nanoencapsulated L. reuteri as compared to control group fish fillet samples. DPPH activity significantly increased to 40.24%, 44.96%, 44.97 in mackerel samples treated with nanoencapsulated L. reuteri (MLR) and increased to 19.76%, 20.87%, 21.46% in rainbow samples treated with nanoencapsulated L. reuteri (RLR). MLR samples exhibited the highest ABTS radical-scavenging activity (1631 μmol TEAC/g). FRAP value of MLR samples was found to be 1.70 times higher than the control group samples.
