Development of an effective kinematic synthesis and admittance control methodology for rehabilitation robotics Robotik rehabilitasyon için etkili bir kinematik sentez ve admitans kontrol yönteminin geliştirilmesi

Koçak, Mertcan

ABSTRACTThroughout the human life, neurological disorders can occur in body areas due to accidents or other biological factors, which negatively affects human life by destroying nerve commands. In these scenarios, continuous and efficient exercises that focus on injured extremities have great benefits in regaining functional losses by retraining motor movements. Rehabilitation procedures need to be applied quickly in order to create neural plasticity and regain affected motor functions. Although theseactions are mostly performed by therapists in current rehabilitation procedures, robotic rehab ...Daha fazlası

Expert system design by using artificial intelligence techniques for the diagnosis of liver disorders

Mülayim, Naciye

Nowadays, Expert System (ES)s are used widely in many areas to solve real world problems. Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques are used to obtain timely and accurately decision about solution of daily problems in ESs designing because AI can mimic behaviours and thought system of people. Especially in medical area, there are many researches and applications using ESs based on various AI techniques to obtain diagnosis for any diseases. The liver is a vital internal organ for a human body and it has many functions, which are associated with the other organs. Although the liver can renew itse ...Daha fazlası

GIS-Based Real Estate Legislation Information System Design: The Case of İzmir, Foça

Mert Kayalık

Dünya nüfusunun 2025 yılında 8.5 milyara, 2050 yılında ise 9.7 milyara ulaşacağı tahmin edilmektedir. Bahsedilen nüfus artışından kaynaklı gelecekte arazinin daha yoğun kullanılacağı öngörülmektedir. Bu sebeple sınırlı ve yenilenemeyen arazinin yönetimi bir zorunluluktur. Söz konusu arazinin yönetiminden bahsederken, bütünleşik parçası durumundaki taşınmazların (ör. Bina, parsel) ve bu taşınmazlara ilişkin mevzuatın (ör. Yasa, yönetmelik) yönetimi de planlanması gereken diğer hususlardandır. Geçmişten günümüze taşınmaz, sahip olduğu ekonomik değerden dolayı vatandaşlar için bir gelir k ...Daha fazlası

Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) in Gynecologic Surgery: A Systematic Review

Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol aims to accelerate early recovery and improves postoperative patient outcomes. This protocol, which includes components such as reduction and prevention of postoperative complications, early mobilization, multimodal management of nausea and vomiting, positively affects surgical processes when used in patients undergoing gynaecological surgery. The aim of the present study was to use recent and relevant literature for examining the use of ERAS protocols in patients undergoing gynaecological surgery. Therefore, a systematic review was conducted to ...Daha fazlası

Design and production of a new smaller diameter axial bearing subjected to high wear loads Yüksek aşınma yüklerine maruz yeni bir küçük çaplı eksenel yatak tasarımı ve imalatı

Dayı, Sinan

ÖZETBir binek otomobilin direksiyon sisteminde en önemli bileşenlerden biri rot kolu ve alt montaj bileşeni olarak statik ve dinamik yatak yüklerine maruz kalan rot milidir. Bu yatak yükleri, rot milinin performansını ve toplam ömrünü sağlamak için kilit noktadır. Rot milinin eksenel yatak performansında önemli bir düşüş, rahatsız edici sürüş koşullarına ve ayrıca sürüş sırasında gürültüye neden olabilir. Tasarımların çoğu, tanımlanan gereksinimlerin karşılanmasını sağlamak için daha büyük küre boyutuyla geliştirilir. Öte yandan, aşırı güvenli tasarım daha yüksek fiyatlara neden olabilir. Bu ç ...Daha fazlası

The effect of RGD pertide on cell proliferation and vasculogenesis during microtissue formation

Yaralı, Ziyşan Buse

3D (Dimensional) microtissues are commonly used in regenerative medicine, medicine design, toxicology studies and advance cancer research. Microtissues which are constructed by this technique mimic natural in vivo condition and it stands for shifting form between in vitro studies and in vivo research. Scaffold-free microtissues produce own extracellular matrix and cells proliferate faster. However microtissue is used in vitro experiments, they mimic in vivo condition by producing own matrix. Recently, RGD peptides which are commonly used biomaterials consist of GRGDS sequences and it has acti ...Daha fazlası

Boron doped titanium dioxide nanotube arrays: production, characterization and photocatalytic properties

Bilgin, Kübra

Photocatalytic degradation and complete mineralization of toxic organic compounds in water, soil, and air in the presence of semiconductor materials have received much attention over the last decades. Electronic structure of semiconductors is characterized by a filled valence band and an empty conduction band. When the semiconductor is irradiated with light of sufficient energy corresponding to or exceeding its band gap, an electron is promoted into the conduction band, leaving a hole in the valence band. The electrons and holes are good reductants and powerful oxidants, respectively, and they ...Daha fazlası

Mandibular anterior bony support and incisor crowding: Is there a relationship?

İLKNUR VELİ

INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to test the null hypothesis that increased irregularity of the mandibular incisors is associated with a reduction in the alveolar support on cone-beam computed tomographic sections. METHODS: From a sample of 1100 digital volumetric tomographs, 125 tomographs of subjects with Class I malocclusion (mean age, 21.6 ± 4.8 years) were selected for this study. An irregularity index was used to categorize these tomographs as having mild, moderate, or severe crowding. All tomographs were taken by using an iCAT (Imaging Sciences International, Hatfield, Pa) ima ...Daha fazlası
