    1960s Tax Law and Non-Muslim Exodus From Istanbul: Turkification of the City
    (Taylor & Francis, 2023) Akpınar, İpek
    This chapter discusses the urban consequences of the expulsion of Istanbul Greeks in 1964. It demonstrates the urban impact of the 16 March 1964 decree that terminated the residence of 12, 000 Greek passport holders in Istanbul (a population of 40, 000 with their relatives), who were given 24 hours to leave the city and allowed to carry only 20 kilograms of belongings or US$22 with them. The event also alarmed many other non-Muslim families to emigrate from Istanbul, while the city was receiving a large influx of immigrants from rural lands due to the growing industrialization and urbanization. Akpinar discusses the urban planning interventions in Istanbul under the Menderes and subsequent governments throughout the 1950s and 1960s as ad-hoc or intentional steps toward Turkification, in which discrimination and the resulting emigration of Istanbul Greeks played a significant part. © 2024 selection and editorial matter, Esra Akcan and Iftikhar Dadi; individual chapters, the contributors.

    Validation of Porosity in 2d-Dem Cpt Model Using Large Scale Shaking Table Tests in Saturated Sands
    (Taylor & Francis, 2015) Bakunowicz, Paulina; Ecemiş, Nurhan
    This paper contains the calibration phase of two-dimensional numerical modelling of Cone Penetration Tests (CPT) in clean saturated sand deposits. The data for calibration is obtained from the CPTs conducted before five different large scale laminar box shaking table tests. The numerical simulations of the cone penetration tests are carried out under application of the Distinct Element Method (DEM) software PFC2D (ITASCA, 2008). This software has additional basic fluid analysis option which uses well recognized SIMPLE shame (Patankar, 1980). A series of conventional Consolidated Drained (CD) triaxial tests were performed in the laboratory to assess the stress-strain behavior of the tested soil. Based on these physical experiments, calibration and scaling of DEM model was performed. In this paper, it is also proven that CPT laminar box based correlations facilitate to overcome limitations of 2D simulation. Outcome can be widely and successfully applied both in scientific research and engineering practice.

    Application of Geophysical Methods in Gulbahce Geothermal Site, Urla-Izmir, Western Anatolia
    (Taylor & Francis, 2014) Pamukçu, Oya; Gönenç, Tolga; Sındırgı, Petek; Baba, Alper
    The western Anatolian region is considered to be one of the most tectonically active, rapidly deforming, and extending areas in the world (Bozkurt 2001; Dewey and Sengor 1979; Jackson and McKenzie 1984; S¸engör et al. 1985; Seyitog˘lu and Scott 1992) (Fig. 14.1). The region is rich with geothermal potential. Systematic geothermal exploration of the region began in 1960s. Medium-and high-temperature fields in and around Izmir city (Fig. 14.1) have been identified. There are a number of district heating systems, greenhouses, and spa complexes commercially utilizing geothermal energy in the region.

    Water Sorption of Polyvinyl Chloride-Luffa Cylindrica Composites
    (Taylor & Francis, 2014) Demir, Hasan; Balköse, Devrim
    Natural Luffa Cylindrica fibers were modified with 0.1M sodium hydroxide (NaOH) for removing lignin and hemicellulose. Natural and modified Luffa fibers were characterized by using IR spectroscopy. Composites were produced with PVC plastisol and natural Luffa fiber. Natural Luffa fiber is a highly hydrophilic substance. This feature increased the water sorption capacity of the composites. Flexible PVC-luffa cylindrica composites had higher liquid water sorption capacity (0.3-0.6%) compared to that of flexible PVC (0.1%). There was no volume change of composites due to liquid water sorption.

    Control of the Particle Size and Purity of Nano Zinc Oxide
    (Taylor & Francis, 2014) Özmıhçı Ömürlü, Filiz; Balköse, Devrim
    Effects of template, mechanical mixing and/or ultrasound mixing on the size of the ZnO crystals obtained by precipitation at 30 °C from aqueous zinc chloride and potassium hydroxide solutions were investigated by 2k factorial design. Precipitation method is employed to synthesize nano zinc oxide particles. Monodisperse nano ZnO having 29 nm particle size was produced by adding triethyl amine and applying simultaneously mechanical and ultrasound mixing. The surface area and the density of the powder were 21 m2/g and 4.8 g/cm3. It contains 5.2% impurities present as CO3-2 and bound OH- groups. Volumetric resistivity was found as 1.3 × 107ohm cm. Absorption spectrum of the powder showed absorption peak at 353 nm. The room temperature fluorescence spectrum of the powder revealed a strong and sharp UV emission band at 391 nm due to free exciton or bound exciton of ZnO and a weak and broad violet emission band at 405 nm due to zinc vacancies.

    Confronted and Disappointed? Struggle of Turkish Planners Against Authoritarian State-Regulated Urban Development
    (Taylor & Francis, 2017) Taşan Kok, Tuna; Penpecioğlu, Mehmet
    This chapter highlights the confrontations and disappointments, turning the spotlight on those who continue to struggle against authoritarian state-regulated urban development. Lacking the instruments to fight authoritarian state-regulated neoliberalism, young planners are becoming disillusioned with their profession. The deepening effects of neoliberalisation have blurred the boundaries between public and private interests, prioritising the role of flexible, short-term, collaborative, and strategic approaches to planning, rather than comprehensive, long-term, and holistic visions. The findings of research provide sufficient data for an understanding and interpretation of the changing positions and roles, strategies and actions, behaviours and attitudes of planners in the face of authoritarian state-regulated neoliberal urban development in Turkey. Deniz Kimyon, 29 years old, is a graduate of the City and Regional Planning Department of Middle East Technical University. The results of the questionnaire also reveal that the views of planners on their profession change over the years.
