Article Citation - WoS: 7Design Education for Adaptive Reuse(Archnet-ijar, 2010) Eyuce, Ozen; Eyuce, AhmetBuiltform is subject to various types of obsolences in the course of time. Among these functional obsolesences, taking place as an outcome of ever changing modes of production and consumption, are of crucial importance so far as their fate of existing urban fabric is concerned. Defunct buildings become derelict and often subject to demolition which amounts to the eradication of the collective memory. In this connection the process of adaptive reuse can be defined as the task of adjusting functionally obsolete buildings for new program requirements through building conversion. Adaptive reuse projects entail not only alterations within the boundaries of an existing building envolope but also radical changes/transformations in the space configuration so as to accomodate the new set of functional requirements. Therefore, the development of an architectural design scheme in the light of potentials offered and the constraints imposed by an existing architectural entity is essential. Although adaptive reuse projects require case specific approaches depending on the peculiarities of the original structure three main areas of concern can be discerned during the elaboration of the design scheme. These areas of concerns are the space configuration, tectonic aspects of the context within which the project will be realized. The paper addresses itself to the elucidation of these concern areas and the interrelations with the final scheme.Conference Object Nanoscale Surface Modification of Ultrahigh Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) Samples With the W Plus C Ion Implantation(Materials Research Soc, 2007) Urkac, E. Sokullu; Oztarhan, A.; Tihminlioglu, F.; Kaya, N.; Budak, S.; Chhay, B.; Ila, D.In this work, Ultra High Molecular Weight Poly Ethylene (UHMWPE) samples Were implanted by W + C ions using Metal-Vapour Vacuum Arc (MEVVA) ion implantation system with a fluence of 10(17) ion/cm(2) and extraction voltage of 30 kV. Samples were characterized with Raman Spectra, ATR-FTIR, UV-VIS-NlR Spectrum and RBS. Surface morphology of implanted and unimplanted samples were examined in nanoscale with AFM.Article Citation - WoS: 2Impact of Thermal Mass Oriented Measures Over CO2 Emissions of a Thermally Insulated Low-Rise Apartment Building in Izmir, Turkey(Selcuk Univ, 2014) Gercek, Mumine; Arsan, Zeynep DurmusClimate change has drawn the attention of many researchers and practitioners to focus on the methods to address the challenges in achieving low-carbon buildings and cities and in future developments. Nevertheless, few studies have explored the impacts of thermal mass applications for the lowest carbon emissions of building operational energy consumption. A comparative study of CO2 emissions due to different wall and floor compositions is presented in accordance with their lifespans for a hot-humid climate site. Aim of this study is to examine the relation between the energy oriented operations and carbon emissions of the building. Firstly, an existing low-rise building in Izmir is selected, then modelled in the dynamic simulation model software DesignBuilder v4 by synchronizing drawings with basic operational principles of the program. Furthermore, various influence factors of building envelope thermal characteristics are selected as follows: type, location, thickness and thermal specifications of materials used by keeping thermal conductivity value constant. At the end, the research presents remarkable influence of thermal mass oriented measures on reducing energy demands and carbon footprints.Book Part Achieving a Socialisation of Rent Through Land Value Taxation(Univ Coll London Press - Ucl Press, 2025) Purves, Andrew; Gallent, Nick; Scott, Mark; Gkartzios, MenelaosBook Part Towards Hopeful Postcapitalist Futures(Univ Coll London Press - Ucl Press, 2025) Gallent, Nick; Scott, Mark; Gkartzios, Menelaos; Purves, AndrewBook Part Land and Rent in Capitalist Production(Univ Coll London Press - Ucl Press, 2025) Purves, Andrew; Gallent, Nick; Gkartzios, Menelaos; Scott, MarkBook Part The Postcapitalist Countryside(Univ Coll London Press - Ucl Press, 2025) Gallent, Nick; Purves, Andrew; Gkartzios, Menelaos; Scott, MarkArticle Vision Transformers-Based Deep Feature Generation Framework for Hydatid Cyst Classification in Computed Tomography Images(Springer, 2025) Sagik, Metin; Gumus, AbdurrahmanHydatid cysts, caused by Echinococcus granulosus, form progressively enlarging fluid-filled cysts in organs like the liver and lungs, posing significant public health risks through severe complications or death. This study presents a novel deep feature generation framework utilizing vision transformer models (ViT-DFG) to enhance the classification accuracy of hydatid cyst types. The proposed framework consists of four phases: image preprocessing, feature extraction using vision transformer models, feature selection through iterative neighborhood component analysis, and classification, where the performance of the ViT-DFG model was evaluated and compared across different classifiers such as k-nearest neighbor and multi-layer perceptron (MLP). Both methods were evaluated independently to assess classification performance from different approaches. The dataset, comprising five cyst types, was analyzed for both five-class and three-class classification by grouping the cyst types into active, transition, and inactive categories. Experimental results showed that the proposed VIT-DFG method achieves higher accuracy than existing methods. Specifically, the ViT-DFG framework attained an overall classification accuracy of 98.10% for the three-class and 95.12% for the five-class classifications using 5-fold cross-validation. Statistical analysis through one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), conducted to evaluate significant differences between models, confirmed significant differences between the proposed framework and individual vision transformer models (p<0.05\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$p < 0.05$$\end{document}). These results highlight the effectiveness of combining multiple vision transformer architectures with advanced feature selection techniques in improving classification performance. The findings underscore the ViT-DFG framework's potential to advance medical image analysis, particularly in hydatid cyst classification, while offering clinical promise through automated diagnostics and improved decision-making.Article Residues of the British Informal Empire: the Smyrna-Aydın Railway's Punta Square as the Future Centre of "Colonial" Smyrna(Routledge, 2025) Sheridan Gun, I.T.; Erten, E.Railways played a pivotal role in the Industrial Revolution, inspired by the expansion of colonial ambitions. They were often accompanied by infrastructural landmarks as postal offices, churches, and hospitals, representing imperial authority and connectivity. While the presence of these enclaves within colonies has been extensively studied, their significance in non-colonised regions, particularly within the Ottoman Empire, has received insufficient attention. The transformation of Smyrna (modern-day Izmir, Turkey) in the late nineteenth century reflects a reorganisation that aligned with Britain’s gentlemanly capitalism and imperialism. This paper aims to shed light on this subject through a detailed analysis of the Punta Railway Station and its surrounding area. Often relegated to a footnote in historical narratives as a “Little British Town,” the study area warrants re-evaluation in the context of informal imperialism. It illustrates how British colonial influence shaped Punta’s spatial and functional dynamics, embodying the concept of colonised spaces without formal colonisation. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Article Frontiers as a Rural Landscape: Conserving the Remains of the Roman Empire in Anatolia(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2025) Tokoz, Ozge Deniz; Akis, TongucRoman frontiers, a part of which passes through Anatolia, are significant heritage remnants of the Roman Empire. Although essential steps have been taken to protect these frontiers and increase their visibility, efforts to protect the Roman frontier in Anatolia are insufficient. The construction of dams and the failure to consider archaeological sites and rural landscapes together create barriers to protection. This study investigates the conservation problems, implementations, and status of the Roman frontier in Anatolia. Common problems, exemplary legal regulations, and conservation practices are discussed by comparing the Anatolian and European frontier sections. Based on this discussion, we advocate for new legal regulations for rural-archaeological sites, increased research on the Roman frontier in Anatolia, greater awareness to strengthen its relationship with the public, and holistic conservation policies that prioritise the relationship of archaeological heritage with the landscape.
