In designated renewal areas, residents/landowners are often subject to several episodes of waiting: waiting for the public authority for information on redevelopment visions; waiting for the plans and projects to become public; waiting for the court ruling if they appeal the plans; waiting for demolition upon plan approvals; and, finally, waiting for the constructions to be completed. Given the complexity of actors and institutions involved in the waiting, it becomes a conflictual political process. This prolonged waiting leads to an ongoing temporariness and precarious spaces of urban renewal. The course of waiting affects the reorganization of the city space now and in the future. We analyze two protracted urban renewal projects from Turkey, Fikirtepe in Istanbul and Karabaglar in Izmir, to explore how residents' decade-long waiting for urban change are shaped and how these diverse waiting experiences lead to different outcomes for the progression of the state-imposed urban renewal agendas. While Karabaglar residents have unified around active bottom-up resistance from the beginning to challenge the project-based plans the central government imposed, Fikirtepe residents pursued individual-level negotiations with developers to maximize private returns following the zoning incentives the public authority gave. Despite the socio-spatial similarities between these designated urban renewal project sites, variances in residents' collective waiting strategies have led to different urban politics around project-based urban change.Correction Chlorinated Phosphorene for Energy Application (vol 231, 112625, 2024)(Elsevier, 2024) Hassani, Nasim; Yagmurcukardes, Mehmet; Peeters, Francois M.; Neek-Amal, Mehdi[No Abstract Available]Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6Weak Dependence of Voltage Amplification in a Semiconductor Channel on Strain State and Thickness of a Multidomain Ferroelectric in a Bilayer Gate(American Chemical Society, 2023) Misirlioglu, I.B.; Yapici, M.K.; Sendur, K.; Okatan, M.B.Ferroelectric/dielectric layered stacks are of special interest as gate oxides in the pursuit of designing low-power transistors, where the electrostatics of such stacks are thought to provide a means to allow for voltage amplification in the semiconductor channel. Strain and thickness dependence of the response of such a gate stack in relation to voltage amplification in a semiconductor channel becomes important to identify, which is what we study in this work using a thermodynamic approach. For a ferroelectric multidomain state as the stable phase in the stack, our findings show that a limited magnitude of voltage amplification appears to be feasible. Voltage amplification at the semiconductor surface is computed to hardly exceed 1.2 in thick bilayers (40 nm) for strains stabilizing the multidomain state and attains even less than this value for the thinner stacks. © 2023 American Chemical Society.Article Citation - Scopus: 1Revisiting the Turkish-Israeli Alliance of the 1990s(Routledge, 2023) Elhan, N.; Şirin, B.The Turkish-Israeli ‘honeymoon’ of the 1990s has been explained by different concepts such as alliance, strategic partnership, or cooperation and friendship, with these concepts often used interchangeably. As a corollary of the Turkish official narrative, which is based on a national security approach, certain explanations were offered in justification of the close relationship, including shared traditional democratic culture and secular character, as well as conducive international atmosphere. According to this construction, Turkey had no option but to align with Israel. On the other hand, while the ‘honeymoon’ was often seen as a foreign policy issue directly affected by the military bureaucracy, negative discourses against Israel in domestic politics, and institutional challenges in the Turkish state structure were often ignored. By way of filling this lacuna, the present article evaluates the impact of domestic factors, including the capital-owning class, lobbies, and institutional changes in the Turkish security apparatus on Turkish-Israeli relations. © 2023 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 8A Joint Evaluation of Streamflow Drought and Standard Precipitation Indices in Aegean Region, Turkey(SPRINGER BASEL AG, 2023) Gülmez, Ayşe; Mersin, Denizhan; Vaheddoost, Babak; Safari, Mir Jafar Sadegh; Tayfur, GokmenWater is an invaluable substance that ensures the life cycle and causes hydrologic events worldwide. Water deficit, also known as drought, is a naturally occurring disaster that affects the hydrometeorologic and/or climatic responses in time and space. In this study, the meteorologic and hydrologic droughts in Buyuk Menderes, Kucuk Menderes, and Gediz basins in Turkey are investigated. The streamflow drought index (SDI) and standard precipitation index (SPI) are used considering different time windows. To achieve this, the monthly streamflow at Cicekli-Nif, Besdegirmenler-Dandalas, Bebekler-Rahmanlar, and Kocarli-Koprubasi hydrometric stations together with monthly precipitation at 14 meteorologic stations during 1973-2020 (47 years) are used. The SDI and SPI with 1, 3, 6, and 12 months moving average are then used to express the association between the meteorologic and hydrologic droughts in the basin. Results showed that the SDI depicts no abnormal situations, while the SPI rates in the 1980s and 2010s indicated severe droughts. It was concluded that the inner parts of the basins are prone to frequent droughts, and there is a concordance between SPI and SDI patterns at the basin level. However, minor discrepancies between SPI and SDI do exist and probably originated from temporal delays and water abstraction.Review Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 13Oxygen Delivery Biomaterials in Wound Healing Applications(WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH, 2023) Bayraktar, Sema; Üstün, Cansu; Kehr, Nermin SedaOxygen (O2) delivery biomaterials have attracted great interest in the treatment of chronic wounds due to their potential applications in local and continuous O2 generation and delivery, improving cell viability until vascularization occurs, promoting structural growth of new blood vessels, simulating collagen synthesis, killing bacteria and reducing hypoxia-induced tissue damage. Therefore, different types of O2 delivery biomaterials including thin polymer films, fibers, hydrogels, or nanocomposite hydrogels have been developed to provide controlled, sufficient and long-lasting O2 to prevent hypoxia and maintain cell viability until the engineered tissue is vascularized by the host system. These biomaterials are made by various approaches, such as encapsulating O2 releasing molecules into hydrogels, polymer microspheres and 3D printed hydrogel scaffolds and adsorbing O2 carrying reagents into polymer films of fibers. In this article, different O2 generating sources such as solid inorganic peroxides, liquid peroxides, and photosynthetic microalgae, and O2 carrying perfluorocarbons and hemoglobin are presented and the applications of O2 delivery biomaterials in promoting wound healing are discussed. Furthermore, challenges encountered and future perspectives are highlighted. Oxygen delivery (O2) biomaterials have attracted great interest in the treatment of chronic wounds due to their ability to continuously deliver oxygen and support cell viability. Therefore, various O2 generating sources such as solid inorganic peroxides, liquid peroxides and photosynthetic microalgae, and O2-carrying perfluorocarbons and hemoglobin are incorporated into different biomaterial networks for wound healing applications.imageArticle Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 8Development of Pro-Angiogenic Wound Dressings From 2-Deoxy (2ddr)-Loaded Decellularized Plant Leaves(SPRINGER, 2023) Dikici, Serkan; Çavdaroğlu, ÇağrıTraditional wound dressings are essential for the treatment of acute and superficial wounds. However, complex wounds require the use of bioactive dressings that promote healing alongside providing a safe barrier for the coverage of the wound site. The addition of growth factors is usually the primary choice to fabricate functionalized wound dressing. However, it is also the main reason for the increase in the cost of a wound dressing and may be associated with several drawbacks, such as the need for a precise drug delivery system to be able to be administered at a narrow effective dose range. 2-deoxy-D-ribose (2dDR) is a cost-effective and promising pro-angiogenic agent that indirectly stimulates vascular endothelial growth factor production to stimulate angiogenesis, and consecutively accelerate wound healing. In this study, we aimed to fabricate a novel wound dressing from 2dDR-loaded decellularized spinach leaves and evaluated its bioactivity on human endothelial cells in vitro. Our results demonstrated that a biocompatible wound dressing biomaterial could successfully be fabricated via the decellularization of spinach leaves using chemical decellularization. The success of decellularization was confirmed quantitatively and qualitatively via determination of the DNA content and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, respectively. 2dDR was then easily incorporated into the dressings via physical absorption and released from them in 5 days. The release of 2dDR-releasing decellularized spinach leaves was observed to increase the viability and metabolic activity of human endothelial cells in vitro over 7 days. In conclusion, we demonstrated the fabrication of a novel functionalized biomaterial combining decellularized plant tissues with a promising pro-angiogenic agent, and 2dDR-loaded decellularized spinach leaves appear to have great potential to be used as a bioactive wound dressing to promote angiogenesis and, consecutively, wound healing.Article Citation - WoS: 19Citation - Scopus: 21Multi-Objective Evolutionary Optimization of Photovoltaic Glass for Thermal, Daylight, and Energy Consideration(Elsevier Ltd, 2023) Taşer,A.; Kazanasmaz,T.; Kundakcı Koyunbaba,B.; Durmuş Arsan,Z.The potential of fenestration systems is increased by incorporating photovoltaic technology into windows. This recently developed technology enhances the ability to generate energy from the building façade, improve the thermal and daylight performance of buildings, and visual comfort of occupants. Integrating an evolutionary optimization algorithm into this technology is one of the possible sustainable solutions to enhance building performance and minimize environmental impact. This paper uses a genetic evolutionary optimization algorithm to explore the optimum performance of photovoltaic glass in an architecture studio regarding annual energy consumption, energy generation, and daylight performance. Design variables include a window-to-wall ratio (i.e., window size and location) and amorphous-silicon thin-film solar cell transparency to generate optimum Pareto-front solutions for the case building. Optimization objectives are minimizing annual thermal (i.e., heating and cooling) loads and maximizing Spatial Daylight Autonomy. Optimized results of low-E semi-transparent amorphous-silicon photovoltaic glass applied on the façade show that the spatial daylight autonomy is increased to 82% with reduced glare risk and higher visual comfort for the occupants. Photovoltaic glass helped reduce the selected room's seasonal and annual lighting loads by up to 26.7%. Lastly, compared to non-optimized photovoltaic glass, they provide 23.2% more annual electrical energy. © 2023 International Solar Energy Society
