    Quantitative Evaluation of the Damage To Rc Buildings Caused by the 2023 Southeast Turkey Earthquake Sequence
    (SAGE Publications, 2024) Pujol, Santiago; Bedirhanoğlu, İdris; Dönmez, Cemalettin; Dowgala, Jeffrey D.; Eryılmaz Yıldırım, Meltem; Klaboe, Kari; Köroğlu, Fahri Baran; Lequesne, Rémy D.; Öztürk, Baki; Pledger, Liam; Sönmez, Egemen
    Data from 15 earthquakes that occurred in 12 different countries are presented showing that, without better drift control, structures built with building codes allowing large seismic drifts are likely to keep leaving a wide wake of damage ranging from cracked partitions to building overturning. Following the earthquake sequence affecting southeast Turkey in 2023, a team led by Committee 133 of the American Concrete Institute surveyed nearly 250 reinforced concrete buildings in the area extending from Antakya to Malatya. Buildings ranging from 2 to 16 stories were surveyed to assess their damage and evaluate the robustness of their structures in relation to overall stiffness, as measured by the relative cross-sectional areas of structural walls and columns. The majority of the buildings were estimated to have been built in the past 10 years. Yet, the structures surveyed were observed to have amounts of structural walls and columns comparable with amounts reported after the Erzincan (1992), Duzce (1999), and Bingol (2003) Earthquakes in Turkey. These amounts are, on average, much smaller than the wall and column amounts used in Chile and Japan. Because of that lack of robustness and given the intensities of the motions reported from Antakya to Malatya (with 10 stations with peak ground velocity (PGV) of 100 cm/s or more), it is concluded that structures in this region experienced large drifts. Excessive drift (1) exposed a myriad of construction and detailing problems leading to severe structural damage and collapse, (2) induced overturning caused by p-delta for some buildings, and (3) caused widespread damage to brittle masonry partitions. The main lesson is simple: ductility is necessary but not sufficient. It is urgent that seismic drift limits are tightened in high-seismicity regions worldwide. © The Author(s) 2024.

    Effects of Nanosecond Laser Ablation Parameters on Surface Modification of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composites
    (SAGE Publications, 2023) Martin, Seçkin; İplikçi, Hande; Barışık, Murat; Türkdoğan, Ceren; Yeke, Melisa; Nuhoğlu, Kaan; Esenoğlu, Gözde; Tanoğlu, Metin; Aktaş, Engin; Dehneliler, Serkan; İriş, Mehmet Erdem
    Removal of contaminants and top polymer layer from the surface of carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites is critical for high-quality adhesive-joining with direct bonding to the reinforcing fiber constituents. Surface treatment with a laser beam provides selective removal of the polymer matrix without damaging the fibers and increasing the wettability. However, inhomogeneous thermal properties of CFRP make control of laser ablation difficult as the laser energy absorbed by the carbon fibers is converted into heat and transmitted through the fiber structures during the laser operation. In this study, the effect of scanning speed and laser power on nanosecond laser surface treatment was characterized by scanning electron microscope images and wetting angle measurements. Low scanning speeds allowed laser energy to be conducted as thermal energy through the fibers, which resulted in less epoxy matrix removal and substantial thermal damage. Low laser power partially degraded the epoxy the surface while the high power damaged the carbon fibers. For the studied CFRP specimens consisting of unidirectional [45/0/?45/90]2s stacking of carbon/epoxy prepregs (HexPly®-M91), 100 mJ/mm2 generated by 10 m/s scanning speed and 30 W power appeared as optimum processing parameters for the complete removal of epoxy matrix from the top surface with mostly undamaged carbon fibers and super hydrophilic surface condition. © The Author(s) 2023.

    Selfless Subjectivities That (re)build the Nation: Remaking the Modern Turkish Woman in the Early Republican Period in Turkiye
    (SAGE Publications, 2023) Yakalı, Dikmen; Ataman, Bora
    This study explores the newly constructed female identities of the Early Republican Era in Turkiye (1923-1945). Through a thematic analysis of three contemporary women's magazines (Aile Dostu, Ev-Is, and Asrin Kadini) it aims to examine how conceptualizations of marriage and family were refashioned in the magazines to fit in the images within the newly constructed domestic ideologies of the state. We argue that the selfless subjectivities offered by the magazines point to dialogically constructed narrative identities which are not stable but fluid. The women's magazines of the Era aimed to reconstruct new identities by representing the Republic's ideas and official ideology to its people. Thus, they became one of the tools of social engineering in the way of transforming the nation into a modern, Westernized one. Analysing these magazines help us identify the repertoire of subjectivities and narrative identities from which women drew while making sense of their selves during an era of transformation.

    Improving Adhesive Behavior of Fiber Reinforced Composites by Incorporating Electrospun Polyamide-6,6 Nanofibers in Joining Region
    (SAGE Publications, 2022) Esenoğlu, Gözde; Barışık, Murat; Tanoğlu, Metin; Yeke, Melisa; Türkdoğan, Ceren; İplikçi, Hande; Martin, Seçkin; Nuhoğlu, Kaan; Aktaş, Engin; Dehneliler, Serkan; İriş, Mehmet Erdem
    Adhesive joining of fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite components is demanded in various industrial applications. However, the joining locations frequently suffer from adhesive bond failure between adhesive and adherent. The aim of the present study is improving bonding behavior of adhesive joints by electrospun nanofiber coatings on the prepreg surfaces that have been used for composite manufacturing. Secondary bonding of woven and unidirectional CFRP parts was selected since this configuration is preferred commonly in aerospace practices. The optimum nanofiber coating with a low average fiber diameter and areal weight density is succeed by studying various solution concentrations and spinning durations of the polyamide-6.6 (PA 66) electrospinning. We obtained homogeneous and beadles nanofiber productions. As a result, an average diameter of 36.50 +/- 12 nm electrospun nanofibers were obtained and coated onto the prepreg surfaces. Prepreg systems with/without PA 66 nanofibers were hot pressed to fabricate the CFRP composite laminates. The single-lap shear test coupons were prepared from the fabricated laminates to examine the effects of PA 66 nanofibers on the mechanical properties of the joint region of the composites. The single-lap shear test results showed that the bonding strength is improved by about 40% with minimal adhesive use due to the presence of the electrospun nanofibers within the joint region. The optical and SEM images of fractured surfaces showed that nanofiber-coated joints exhibited a coherent failure while the bare surfaces underwent adhesive failure. The PA66 nanofibers created better coupling between the adhesive and the composite surface by increasing the surface area and roughness. As a result, electrospun nanofibers turned adhesive failure into cohesive and enhanced the adhesion performance composite joints substantially.

    Determination of Activation Energy for Carbon/Epoxy Prepregs Containing Carbon Nanotubes by Differential Scanning Calorimetry
    (SAGE Publications, 2022) Uz, Yusuf Can; Tanoğlu, Metin
    The aim of the present study is the thermal characterization of laboratory-scale carbon fiber/epoxy-based prepregs by incorporating single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). Investigation of the cure behavior of a prepreg system is crucial for the characterization and optimization of the fiber reinforced polymeric (FRP) composite. To affect dispersion characteristics, SWCNTs were functionalized by oxidizing their surface with carboxyl (-COOH) group using an acid treatment. The modified resin system contained 0.05, 0.1, and 0.2 wt. % functionalized SWCNTs (F-SWCNTs). Carbon fiber (CF) reinforced prepregs containing various amount of F-SWCNTs were prepared using drum-type winding technique. FTIR was performed to identify new bonding groups formed after the functionalization of SWCNTs. Cure kinetics of prepregs prepared with/without F-SWCNTs were investigated using isoconversional methods.

    Fabrication of 3d Printed Poly(lactic Acid) Strut and Wet-Electrospun Cellulose Nano Fiber Reinforced Chitosan-Collagen Hydrogel Composite Scaffolds for Meniscus Tissue Engineering
    (SAGE Publications, 2022) Güneş, Oylum Çolpankan; Kara, Aylin; Baysan, Gizem; Hüsemoğlu, Reşit Buğra; Akokay, Pınar; Ziylan Albayrak, Aylin; Ergür, Bekir Uğur; Havitçioğlu, Hasan
    The main goal of the study was to produce chitosan-collagen hydrogel composite scaffolds consisting of 3D printed poly(lactic acid) (PLA) strut and nanofibrous cellulose for meniscus cartilage tissue engineering. For this purpose, first PLA strut containing microchannels was incorporated into cellulose nanofibers and then they were embedded into chitosan-collagen matrix to obtain micro- and nano-sized topographical features for better cellular activities as well as mechanical properties. All the hydrogel composite scaffolds produced by using three different concentrations of genipin (0.1, 0.3, and 0.5%) had an interconnected microporous structure with a swelling ratio of about 400% and water content values between 77 and 83% which is similar to native cartilage extracellular matrix. The compressive strength of all the hydrogel composite scaffolds was found to be similar (∼32 kPa) and suitable for cartilage tissue engineering applications. Besides, the hydrogel composite scaffold comprising 0.3% (w/v) genipin had the highest tan δ value (0.044) at a frequency of 1 Hz which is around the walking frequency of a person. According to the in vitro analysis, this hydrogel composite scaffold did not show any cytotoxic effect on the rabbit mesenchymal stem cells and enabled cells to attach, proliferate and also migrate through the inner area of the scaffold. In conclusion, the produced hydrogel composite scaffold holds great promise for meniscus tissue engineering.

    An Evaluation of the Relationship Between Everyday Life Rhythms and Urban Morphology: the Square of Bursa Kent Meydani Shopping Center, Turkey
    (SAGE Publications, 2022) Gümüş, İmran; Yılmaz, Ebru
    The aim of this study is to search for the relationship between the morphological character of urban space and the rhythms of everyday life. Initially, behavioral maps are created by observing daily life rhythms, video recordings are taken on weekend and weekday, the snapshot technique, video recordings, and the pedestrian count analysis are used. In the second step, morphological analyses of the study area are prepared by using space syntax approach. Connectivity, local, and global integration values are obtained through creating axial map, and, in addition, visibility graph analysis (VGA) is performed. Bursa Kent Meydani Shopping Center (BKMSC) consists of a square and the shopping units surrounding it. This area was the main transportation point as Central Bus Station Complex until 2006. The area was selected within the scope of the study because its changing public use due to the functional transformation of the area plays a significant role in the identity of the Bursa. The behavioral maps obtained from the observational data give information about user mobility, various actions, and the activities' locations on weekends and weekdays. By correlating and comparing behavioral and space syntax maps analyses, the relationship between the rhythmic character and the morphological structure of the urban space is tested. The study presents original data by revealing the effects of the morphological elements of Bursa on the daily rhythms of the square of BKMSC. The case study is limited to the surveys conducted in 2 days and three different times of the day. The relationship between observational data and space syntax data shows that daily life rhythms are not independent of the morphological factors.

    Enhancement of Filament Wound Glass Fiber/Epoxy-based Cylindrical Composites by Toughening With Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes
    (SAGE Publications, 2022) Ay Solak, Zeynep; Kartav, Osman; Tanoğlu, Metin
    In this study, the effect of incorporating nano-sized fillers (noncovalently functionalized with ethoxylated alcohol chemical-vapor-deposition-grown SWCNTs) within an epoxy resin on the performance of filament wound glass fiber (GF)-based cylindrical composites (GFCCs) was investigated. For this purpose, SWCNTs were dispersed with the concentration of 0.05 and 0.1 weight percent (wt.%) within an epoxy resin using mechanical stirring and calendaring (3-roll-milling) techniques. The rheological behavior of the SWCNT incorporated epoxy mixture was characterized to determine the suitability of blends for the filament winding process. It was revealed that the viscosity value of the resin was not significantly affected by the addition of SWCNTs in given concentrations. Moreover, contact angle measurements were also performed on the SWCNT/epoxy blends dropped on the GF for the evaluation of the wettability behavior of the GF in the presence of the SWCNTs in relevant concentrations. Eventually, it was observed that the wettability behavior of GF was not reasonably affected by the presence of the SWCNTs. The double cantilever beam (DCB), flexural, and short beam shear (SBS) tests were performed on the reference and SWCNT-modified GFCC specimens to evaluate the effects of the SWCNT presence on the interlaminar fracture toughness and out-of-plane properties of GFCCs. The fractured surfaces after the DCB and SBS tests were analyzed under the scanning electron microscopy to reveal the toughening mechanisms and the filler morphologies. Consequently, although SWCNT incorporation was on the outermost layer of GFCCs, it was found that the interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) values and Mode I interlaminar fracture toughness values of the curved composite samples were improved up to 22 and 216%, respectively, due to the presence of the SWCNTs.

    Development of Biological Meniscus Scaffold: Decellularization Method and Recellularization With Meniscal Cell Population Derived From Mesenchymal Stem Cells
    (SAGE Publications, 2021) Kara, Aylin; Koçtürk, Semra; Bilici, Gökçen; Havıtçıoğlu, Hasan
    Tissue engineering approaches which include a combination of cells and scaffold materials provide an alternative treatment for meniscus regeneration. Decellularization and recellularization techniques are potential treatment options for transplantation. Maintenance of the ultrastructure composition of the extracellular matrix and repopulation with cells are important factors in constructing a biological scaffold and eliminating immunological reactions. The aim of the study is to develop a method to obtain biological functional meniscus scaffolds for meniscus regeneration. For this purpose, meniscus tissue was decellularized by our modified method, a combination of physical, chemical, and enzymatic methods and then recellularized with a meniscal cell population composed of fibroblasts, chondrocytes and fibrochondrocytes that obtained from mesenchymal stem cells. Decellularized and recellularized meniscus scaffolds were analysed biochemically, biomechanically and histologically. Our results revealed that cellular components of the meniscus were successfully removed by preserving collagen and GAG structures without any significant loss in biomechanical properties. Recellularization results showed that the meniscal cells were localized in the empty lacuna on the decellularized meniscus, and also well distributed and proliferated consistently during the cell culture period (p < 0.05). Furthermore, a high amount of DNA, collagen, and GAG contents (p < 0.05) were obtained with the meniscal cell population in recellularized meniscus tissue. The study demonstrates that our decellularization and recellularization methods were effective to develop a biological functional meniscus scaffold and can mimic the meniscus tissue with structural and biochemical features. We predict that the obtained biological meniscus scaffolds may provide avoidance of adverse immune reactions and an appropriate microenvironment for allogeneic or xenogeneic recipients in the transplantation process. Therefore, as a promising candidate, the obtained biological meniscus scaffolds might be verified with a transplantation experiment.

    Development and Analysis of Composite Overwrapped Pressure Vessels for Hydrogen Storage
    (SAGE Publications, 2021) Kartav, Osman; Kangal, Serkan; Yücetürk, Kutay; Tanoğlu, Metin; Aktaş, Engin; Artem, Hatice Seçil
    In this study, composite overwrapped pressure vessels (COPVs) for high-pressure hydrogen storage were designed, modeled by finite element (FE) method, manufactured by filament winding technique and tested for burst pressure. Aluminum 6061-T6 was selected as a metallic liner material. Epoxy impregnated carbon filaments were overwrapped over the liner with a winding angle of +/- 14 degrees to obtain fully overwrapped composite reinforced vessels with non-identical front and back dome layers. The COPVs were loaded with increasing internal pressure up to the burst pressure level. During loading, deformation of the vessels was measured locally with strain gauges. The mechanical performances of COPVs designed with various number of helical, hoop and doily layers were investigated by both experimental and numerical methods. In numerical method, FE analysis containing a simple progressive damage model available in ANSYS software package for the composite section was performed. The results revealed that the FE model provides a good correlation as compared to experimental strain results for the developed COPVs. The burst pressure test results showed that integration of doily layers to the filament winding process resulted with an improvement of the COPVs performance.
