Book Part 1960s Tax Law and Non-Muslim Exodus From Istanbul: Turkification of the City(Taylor & Francis, 2023) Akpınar, İpekThis 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.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Spatial Point Pattern Analysis of Lung Cancer in an Urban Area: Izmir Case(Taylor & Francis, 2013) Özkan, Sevim Pelin; Tarhan, Çiğdem; Eser, Sultan; Yakut, C.; Saygın, ÖmürIn health area, in order to conduct a reliable analysis of the diseases that threat public health and develop control strategies. This is required to investigate firstly how the disease are geographically distributed, secondly regions where disease is observed more dense, and thirdly their geo-statistical aspects. The aim of the study is to prepare spatially distribution map of the lung cancer cases in Izmir, Turkey, and are distributed on Izmir map via GIS. Spatial statistics are performed and the relations of geographical factors and the cancer data are discussed. Smart maps with tabular data and displaying cancer cases on a spatially distribution maps have been produced as end products. ArcGIS and Spatial Analyst module are used for the study.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Validation of Porosity in 2d-Dem Cpt Model Using Large Scale Shaking Table Tests in Saturated Sands(Taylor & Francis, 2015) Bakunowicz, Paulina; Ecemiş, NurhanThis 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.Book Part Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 7Application of Geophysical Methods in Gulbahce Geothermal Site, Urla-Izmir, Western Anatolia(Taylor & Francis, 2014) Pamukçu, Oya; Gönenç, Tolga; Sındırgı, Petek; Baba, AlperThe 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.Book Part Water Sorption of Polyvinyl Chloride-Luffa Cylindrica Composites(Taylor & Francis, 2014) Demir, Hasan; Balköse, DevrimNatural 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.Book Part Control of the Particle Size and Purity of Nano Zinc Oxide(Taylor & Francis, 2014) Özmıhçı Ömürlü, Filiz; Balköse, DevrimEffects 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.Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 13Application of Work Function Measurements in the Study of Surface Catalyzed Reactions on Rh(1 0 0)(Taylor & Francis, 2018) Çağlar, Başar; Kızılkaya, Ali Can; Niemantsverdriet, J. W. (Hans); Weststrated, C. J. (Kees-Jan)The present article aims to show how work function measurements (WF) can be applied in the study of elementary surface reaction steps on metallic single crystal surfaces. The work function itself can in many cases not be interpreted directly, as it lacks direct information on structural and chemical nature of the surface and adsorbates, but it can be a powerful tool when used together with other surface science techniques which provide information on the chemical nature of the adsorbed species. We here, illustrate the usefulness of work function measurements using Rh(100) as our model catalyst. The examples presented include work function measurements during adsorption, surface reaction, and desorption of a variety of molecules relevant for heterogeneous catalysis. Surface coverage of adsorbates, isosteric heat of adsorption, and kinetic parameters for desorption, desorption/decomposition temperatures of surface species, different reaction regimes were determined by WF with the aid of other surface science techniques.Book Part Citation - Scopus: 4Confronted and Disappointed? Struggle of Turkish Planners Against Authoritarian State-Regulated Urban Development(Taylor & Francis, 2017) Taşan Kok, Tuna; Penpecioğlu, MehmetThis 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.Conference Object Occurrence of Arsenic and Related Microbial Signature of Hydrothermal Systems in Western Turkey(Taylor & Francis, 2012) Chen, Chienyen; Maity, Jyoti Prakash; Bundschuh, Jochen; Bhattacharya, Prosun; Baba, Alper; Gündüz, OrhanThe naturally occurring aqueous Arsenic (As) and other toxic elements are found around the world. The present study concentrates on arsenic concentrations, speciation and related microbial diversity in a hydrothermal system in Western Turkey. The surface temperatures of hot springs reach up to 90°C and deep well (reservoir) temperatures vary in the range of 40 to 230°C. The elements such as As, B, Br, Ba, Cr, Fe, Mn, V and Zn are found in high concentration in hydrothermal waters. Hydrogeochemically, Seferihisar hot spring exhibited a Na-Cl water type. On the other hand, Karahayit, Pamukkale, Emirfaki, Alaşehir and Sart exhibit a Ca-HCO 3 water type and Çitgöl exhibited a Na-HCO 3-SO 4 water type. The arsenic (As) concentrations in geothermal waters of Western Anatolia have been detected to range from 0.03 mg/L to 1.5 mg/L, including Buharkent (İnalti) (1.50 ± 0.005 mg/L), Kizildere (1.13 ± 0.005 mg/L), Eynal (0.71 ± 0.005 mg/L) and Sarayköy (0.06 ± 0.004 mg/L). Arsenic (III) is the dominant species in geothermal water of Western Anatolia. The 16S rRNA gene sequences of bacterial diversity show that the thermophilic, sulfur/thiosulfate-oxidizing bacterium (Thiobacter subterraneus) is present in Kula geothermal water and mesophilic sulfur- and thiosulfate-oxidizing Sulfurovum lithotrophicum bacterium occurs in Sarayköy geothermal spring. Also, Bacillus fumarioli, (a thermophilic, aerobic endospore forming bacterium growing on (NH 4) 2 SO 4, MgSO 4 and MnSO 4 at 50-55°C), Schlegelella thermodepolymerans and Methylocaldum szegediense are rich in geothermal water.
