    Unwanted Others of the City: Counter-Cultural Production of the Roma People of Urla-Turkey
    (Taylor & Francis, 2024) Uştuk, Ozan
    This article examines a case of urban displacement and its impact on the local Roma community by uncovering the discursive strategies of the local governments and the tactical responses of the local people. Based on two-year-long ethnographic research, this study aims to understand the intricate dynamics of the counter-cultural production of the Roma people as a response to gentrification policies of local governments. The rapid rise of the rent value of land has motivated the capital class to force an exile strategy on Roma and accelerated existing segregation policies. During this time, some discursive strategies to manufacture public consent about the gentrification have circulated to change the representation of the Roma identity, replacing their imagery in mainstream society by mainly signifying them as the undeserving poor. This research aims to understand how strategic discourses and actions have positioned Roma in the societal and cultural sphere and in response, how everyday tactics of the Roma engenders counter-cultural forms through intercultural communication.

    Effect of Compaction and Fluoride Content on the Remelting Efficiency of Pure Magnesium Chips
    (Taylor & Francis, 2023) Yörük, Pınar; Gökelma, Mertol; Derin, Bora
    Magnesium is widely used in industries, such as automotive, aerospace, and medical fields. The demand on magnesium has been growing, although the production and melt treatment is complex due to strong oxidation tendency. Recycling of magnesium scraps is crucial due to the criticality of magnesium-containing raw materials in Europe as well as increasing environmental concerns. Remelting of magnesium is typically conducted under a salt flux which absorbs the impurities and protects the melt against oxidation. This study investigates the effect of compaction, fused salt flux, and salt composition on remelting behavior of magnesium chips. Metal yield and coagulation efficiency were calculated after remelting, and samples were characterized by using Scanning Electron Microscope and X-ray Diffraction. The liquidus temperature and density of fluxes were analyzed by FactSage software. Remelting of compacted chips under a fused salt flux with 5 wt.% CaF2 showed the highest magnesium recovery with a yield of 97.7%. Le magnesium est largement utilise dans une variete d'industries, telles que les domaines de l'automobile, de l'aerospatiale et de la medecine. La demande en magnesium s'est accrue, bien que la production et le traitement du bain soient complexes en raison de sa forte tendance a l'oxydation. Le recyclage des dechets de magnesium est crucial en raison de la criticite des matieres premieres contenant du magnesium en Europe ainsi que des preoccupations environnementales croissantes. La refusion du magnesium est effectuee typiquement sous un flux de sel qui absorbe les impuretes et protege le bain contre l'oxydation. Cette etude examine l'effet du compactage, du flux de sel fondu et de la composition du sel sur le comportement a la refusion des copeaux de magnesium. On a calcule le rendement en metal et l'efficacite de la coagulation apres des experiences de refusion, et l'on a caracterise les echantillons a l'aide d'un microscope electronique a balayage et de la diffraction des rayons X. On a analyse la temperature du liquidus (Tliq) et la densite des flux de sel avec le logiciel FactSage. La refusion des copeaux compactes sous un flux de sel fondu avec 5% en poids de CaF2 a montre la recuperation de magnesium la plus elevee avec un rendement de 97.7%

    (Taylor & Francis, 2023) Tan, Ayşe; Köse, Aytekin; Mete, Derya; Şanlı Mohamed, Gülşah; Kışhalı, Nurhan H.; Kara, Yunus
    This study aims to evaluate the synthesis of isoindole-1,3-dione analogues and their cytotoxic potential. A549 and HeLa cells exposed to 250-100-50-25 mu M doses of each derivative were incubated for 24, 48, and 72 h. The cytotoxicity of the isoindole-1,3-dione derivatives was analyzed using the cell growth inhibition assay and the cell membrane damage test. (3aR,5R,6R,7aS)-5-Azido-2-benzyl-6-hydroxyhexahydro-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione (1d), (3aR,5R,6R,7aS)-5-azido-6-((tert-butyldiphenylsilyl)oxy)-2-ethylhexahydro-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione (2a), and (3aR,5R,6R,7aS)-5-azido-6-((tert-butyldiphenylsilyl)oxy)-2-methylhexahydro-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione (2b) compounds inhibited the growth of the A549 and HeLa cells caused membrane damage and exhibited a dose-dependent cytotoxic effect on lung and cervical carcinoma cells. The effect of tert-butyldiphenylsilyl (TBDPS) groups on cytotoxicity was observed in compounds 2a and 2b, but not in the other compounds. Considering the effect of groups attached to the nitrogen atom, the best activity was exhibited in 2b molecule to which the methyl group is attached. Additionally, the interactions of compounds (3aR,5R,6R,7aS)-5-azido-6-hydroxy-2-methylhexahydro-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione (1b), 1d, 2a and 2b with mammalian rapamycin target, human ribosomal S6 kinase 1 and human epidermal growth factor receptor were investigated by molecular docking studies, . According to the docking results, 2a and 2b compounds containing a TBDPS group have stronger binding energies than 1b and 1d compounds against all target receptors.

    Air Density Calculation at High Altitude Locations for Wind Energy Use: the Alpines Validation
    (Taylor & Francis, 2023) Bingöl, Ferhat
    Atmospheric air density has an essential role in the energy production of wind turbines. It is directly proportional to the power taken out from the airflow. The common practice at a planned wind farm location is to measure atmospheric parameters and calculate the air density as monthly and yearly averages based on the International Committee for Weights and Measures (CIPM). After that, the reference point is used to calibrate spatial data to study the siting of wind turbines at a large spatial domain of interest using an engineering method based on only temperature and elevation a.m.s.l. The engineering method is also employed with only temperature and elevation data when there are no pressure and relative humidity measurements. The point-to-spatial transformation is done through the simplified engineering formula, and it is known that the method is primarily valid up to (Formula presented.) a.m.s.l. Above these elevations, the engineering methods have a significant bias, up to (Formula presented.) error in estimating the air density. This bias leads to a substantial error in energy yield estimations. This study uses more than one in-situ measurement at high altitude locations to calibrate the engineering method at the Alpine Convention Perimeter. It aims to improve the calculation accuracy by calculating the pressure gradient within the region. It is found that the seasonal and yearly averaging errors can be improved by (Formula presented.) to (Formula presented.) in the air density calculation with the new approach. The method can be applied to other locations with similar conditions.

    Unique decompositions into regular ideals for Marot rings
    (Taylor & Francis, 2022) Ay Saylam, Başak; Gürbüz, Ezgi
    Let R be a commutative ring. We say that R has the unique decomposition into regular ideals (UDRI) property if, for any R-module which decomposes into a finite direct sum of regular ideals, this decomposition is unique up to the order and isomorphism class of the regular ideals. In this paper, we will prove some preliminary results for Marot rings whose regular ideals are finitely generated and give a necessary and sufficient condition for these rings to satisfy the UDRI property.

    Investigating Triple Superphosphate for Lead Removal From Aqueous Solutions
    (Taylor & Francis, 2022) Souley Garba, Mahamane Chapiou; Kaya, Erol; Gökelma, Mertol; Seyrankaya, Abdullah
    The aim of this research is to investigate monocalcium phosphate monohydrate [Ca(H2PO4)2. H2O] also called triple superphosphate (TSP) for the removal of lead (Pb) from aqueous solutions. In this study, TSP was selected amongst various phosphate-based materials and fertilizers to act as the source of orthophosphate (PO43-) which is a powerful tool for metal fixation in soil and water. Thermodynamic equilibrium dissolution-precipitation relationships for the systems of Pb-H2O and Pb-PO43--H2O were drawn with the aid of Eh-pH stability diagrams to determine the predominance areas of different species. The lead phosphate compounds, identified through the stability area diagrams, were verified with the batch precipitation tests performed with standard solutions of lead and TSP at different conditions. It was observed that, depending upon solution conditions, TSP can precipitate 99.9% of the lead from the solution. Lead precipitates, analyzed by x-ray diffraction, showed the formation of lead phosphate compounds. The mechanism of TSP for the removal of lead from aqueous solutions is discussed.

    Hydrophobic Deep Eutectic Solvent Effect on Acrylic Acid Separation From Aqueous Media by Using Reactive Extraction and Modeling With Response Surface Methodology
    (Taylor & Francis, 2022) Lalikoğlu, Melisa; Aşçı, Yavuz Selim; Sırma Tarım, Burcu; Yıldız, Mahmut; Arat, Refik
    Hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (HDES) are new-generation green solvents that have emerged in recent years. In this study, the efficiency of using HDES as a solvent in separating acrylic acid from its aqueous solution by reactive extraction method was investigated. As a solvent, HDES prepared with a mixture of TOPO and menthol has been used for the recovery of acrylic acid for the first time. Physical properties of HDES mixtures such as density, viscosity, and refractive index were determined. In reactive extraction experiments, TOPO, one of the two basic components in the solvent, was also employed as an extractant. With the help of response surface methodology based on Box-Behnken design, the effect of the parameters of amount of extractant (0.1–0.9 g), Menthol/TOPO molar ratio (2–4), and initial acid concentration (3–9%) on the distribution coefficient was investigated and the model equation was formed. The highest distribution coefficient (D = 7.8) was achieved with the molar ratio of Menthol/TOPO is 2. Upon examining all the results obtained, it was seen that more than 90% of acrylic acid could be extracted from the aqueous phase to the organic phase.

    Es-W
    (Taylor & Francis, 2021) Ay Saylam, Başak; Hamdi, Haleh
    We introduce and study the notion of ES-w-stability for an integral domain R. A nonzero ideal I of R is called ES-w-stable if (I-2)(w) = (JI)(w) for some t-invertible ideal J of R contained in I, and I is called weakly ES-w-stable if I-w = (JE)(w) for some t-invertible fractional ideal J of R and w-idempotent fractional ideal E of R. We define R to be an ES-w-stable domain (resp., a weakly ES-w-stable domain) if every nonzero ideal of R is ES-w-stable (resp., weakly ES-w-stable). These notions allow us to generalize some well-known properties of ES-stable and weakly ES-stable domains.

    Fabrication and in Vitro Evaluation of Thermally Cross-Linked Gelatin Nanofibers for Drug Delivery Applications
    (Taylor & Francis, 2022) Mete, Derya; Göktaş, Gözde; Şanlı Mohamed, Gülşah
    In this study, four different nanofibers consisting of gelatin (Gel), doxorubicin (DOX) with gel (DOX@Gel), a composite of gel with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEGylated-gel), and DOX@PEGylated-gel were fabricated. Subsequently, the nanofibers were thermally cross-linked in order to offer a stable and biocompatible alternative for the biological applications of nanofibers such as drug delivery and tissue engineering. Nanofibers were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier Transform-Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), and confocal microscopy. The formation of smooth, continuous, and uniform nanofibers was observed and the addition of PEG resulted in an increase whereas the incorporation of DOX into nanofibers had no significant change in the diameter of nanofibers. Crosslinking also enlarged the diameter of all nanofibers and the most dramatic increase was observed 53% by DOX@PEGylated-gel. Afterward, the biological performance of the nanofibers was investigated by drug release profile, cytotoxicity on A549 cell line as well as antimicrobial activity with E. coli and S. aureus. The results indicate an enhanced drug release profile, moderate antimicrobial activity, and reasonable cytotoxic efficiency for thermally cross-linked nanofibers compared to uncross-linked nanofibers.

    Environmental Assessment of Transparent Conductive Oxide-Free Efficient Flexible Organo-Lead Halide Perovskite Solar Cell
    (Taylor & Francis, 2020) Sarıaltın, Hüseyin; Geyer, Roland; Zafer, Ceylan
    Perovskite solar cells (PSCs), one of the third-generation photovoltaic (PV) technologies, have recently become a very popular topic in photovoltaic research. This technology, which is a candidate for commercialization in the future, needs to be evaluated from an environmental point of view. The amount of electricity consumption is the most important factor that directly determines the environmental impact values of photovoltaic cell manufacturing. Transparent conductive oxide (TCO) coated glass is one of the major contributors to electricity consumption in PSC architecture. It is therefore useful to investigate the environmental profile of TCO coated glass-free PSC architecture with conventional PVs. One of the solutions to this issue is manufacturing PSC on a flexible substrate. Flexible PVs are considered to be one of the most promising candidates for mass production with its advantages of low-temperature manufacturing, higher efficiency with a lower weight, portability, and compatibility with a roll to roll fabrication. In this work, we show that the environmental impacts of a representative PSCs with a flexible substrate. While the energy payback time (EPBT) of the flexible PSC is already competitive with commercial PVs, the device must reach a 25-year cell lifetime for its global warming potential (GWP) to reach a reasonable range.
