    Teleoperation With Kinematically Redundant Robot Manipulators With Sub-Task Objectives
    (Cambridge Univ Press, 2009) Nath, Nitendra; Tatlicioglu, Enver; Dawson, Darren M.
    In this paper, control of nonlinear teleoperator systems where both the master and slave systems are kinematically redundant robot manipulators is addressed. The controller is developed under the assumption that the user and environmental input forces arc unmeasurable. Lyapunov-based stability analysis is used to prove that the proposed controller yields asymptotic tracking results and ensures the coordination of the master and slave systems while satisfying a sub-task objective. Numerical simulation results are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed controller.

    Review of Literature for the Concept of Post-Disaster Housing in Turkey
    (Gazi University, 2008) Baradan, Berna
    There have been implementations of post-disaster housing even in historical ages and mentioned in studies concerning a specific period in time in which the disaster occurred in Turkey. With a brief overview of such history of post-disaster housing, the studies were reviewed based on the relationship between approaches and time periods concerning the architectural literature of post-disaster housing in Turkey between 1977 and 2005. There are mainly two types of architectural studies about this concept; observations and analyses about the general policy in Turkey, and case specific studies. These two types of studies can also classified within their writing style as well; descriptive style and analytical style of writing is used for a basis for the comparison of approaches used in the studies. The term ‘architectural literature’ used in this article were used for the works published by the architects and/or studies published in architectural magazines. From this analysis, it could be concluded that the architectural society in Turkey changed its point of view to more humanistic solutions in post-disaster housing after the 1999 Marmara Earthquake.

    Mechanisms of Cellular Resistance To Imatinib in Human Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Cells
    (Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2007) Baran, Yusuf; Ural, Ali Uğur; Gündüz, Ufuk
    A major advancement in the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) has been the development of imatinib, which has shown striking activity in the chronic phase and the accelerated phase, but less so in the blast phase of the disease. Despite high rates of hematologic and cytogenetic responses to therapy, the emergence of resistance to imatinib has been recognized as a major problem in the treatment of patients with CML. Various cellular mechanisms may be involved in the nature of cellular resistance. Increased amount of target, alteration in structure of target proteins, decreased drug uptake and increased detoxification are well-known mechanisms of resistance. On the other hand, in some cases, even if anticancer drugs reach their sites of action, bypassing drug efflux system of the cells, some cells still may survive via the dysregulation of apoptotic signalling. In this study, mechanisms of resistance to imatinib-induced apoptosis in human Meg-01 CML cells were examined. Continuous exposure of cells to step-wise increasing concentrations of imatinib resulted in the selection of 200- and 1000 nM imatinib-resistant sub-lines referred to as Meg-01/IMA-0,2 and Meg-01/1MA-1, respectively. MTT cell proliferation, cell cycle analyses and trypan blue dye exclusion analyses showed that Meg-0l/IMA-1 cells were resistant to imatinib-induced apoptosis as compared to parental sensitive cells. There was an increased expression of BCR/ABL, Bcl-2 and an increase in mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) detected in resistant cells comparing to parental sensitive cells. There was no mutation detected in imatinib binding site of ABL kinase region. Various diverse mechanisms have been reported for their involvement in the multidrug resistance. In this study, it has been shown that the degree of BCR/ABL expression appears to be directly proportional to the levels of imatinib resistance. In addition, there have been BCR/ABL-independent mechanisms reported for deriving resistance against imatinib. Our results revealed that besides BCR/ABL overexpression, imatinib resistance also depends on the inhibition of apoptosis as a result of up-regulation of anti-apoptotic stimuli and down-regulation of pro-apoptotic stimuli through MMP but does not depend on any mutation on imatinib binding site of ABL kinase.

    Thermal Characterization of Ag and Ag Plus N Ion Implanted Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (uhmwpe)
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2007) Urkaç, Emel Sokullu; Oztarhan, A.; Tıhmınlıoğlu, Funda; Kaya, N.; Ila, D.; Muntele, C.; Tek, Z.
    Most of total hip joints are composed of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE). However, as ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene is too stable in a body, wear debris may accumulate and cause biological response such as bone absorption and loosening of prosthesis. In this study, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene samples were Ag and Ag + N hybrid ion implanted by using MEVVA ion implantation technique to improve its surface properties. Samples were implanted with a fluence of 10(17) ion/cm(2) and extraction voltage of 30 kV. Implanted and unimplanted samples were investigated by thermo-gravimetry analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), optical microscopy (OM) and contact Angle measurement. Thermal characterization results showed that the ion bombardment induced an increase in the % crystallinity, onset and termination degradation temperatures of UHMWPE. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V.

    Polymeric Thermal Analysis of C+h and C+h+ar Ion Implanted Uhmwpe Samples
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2007) Kaya, N.; Öztarhan, Ahmet M.; Urkaç, Emel Sokullu; Ila, D.; Budak, S.; Oks, E.; Tıhmınlıoğlu, Funda; Muntele, C.
    Chemical surface characterization of C + H hybrid ion implanted UHMWPE samples were carried out using DSC (differential scanning calorimeter) and TGA (thermal gravimetric analysis) techniques. Samples were implanted with a fluence of 10(17) ion/cm(2) and an extraction voltage of 30 kV. The study of TGA and DSC curves showed that: (1) Polymeric decomposition temperature increased, (2) T-m, Delta C-p and Delta H-m values changed while Delta C-p and Delta H-m increased. T-g value could not be measured, because of some experimental limitations. However, the increase in Delta H-m values showed that T-g values increased, (3) the branch density which indicated the increase in number of cross-link (M-c) decreased in ion implanted samples and (4) increase in Delta H-m values indicated increase in crystallinity of implanted surface of UHMWPE samples.

    Reaction of Methyl Radicals With Metal Powders Immersed in Aqueous Solutions
    (Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2003) Rusonik,I.; Polat,H.; Cohen,H.; Meyerstein,D.
    Methyl radicals radiolytically produced in aqueous solutions react efficiently with Cr0, Mn0, Fe0, Ni 0, Cu0 and Zn0 powders immersed in the solution. The Cr0, Mn0, Fe0, Ni0 and Zn0 powders reduce the radicals to form methane. On the other hand the Cu0 powder seems to oxidize the radicals. Surprisingly a part of the energy absorbed by the Cr0, Fe0, Ni 0 and Zn0 powders is transferred to the aqueous solution, thus increasing the radical yield. CH4, C2H4, C2H6, C3H6 and C3H 8 are formed when an aqueous deaerated buffer solution, pH 4-5, is added to powders of analytical iron, zinc, manganese and chromium. The source of these gases is carbon traces present, as atoms or atom clusters, in the "analytical" metal powders. These carbon atoms, when present on the surface of the metals, are reduced by the metal particles in aqueous solutions. This mechanism might be the source of light alkanes and alkenes in the prebiotic era. © Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2003.

    In this paper, we consider the Schrodinger operators defined by the differential expression Lu = -Delta u+q(x)u in d-dimensional parallelepiped F, with the Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions, and obtain the asymptotic formulae for the eigenvalues of these operators.
