Hospital-acquired infections (HAI) (nosocomial infection) are serious health
problems that occur when person acquires infection during stay in a hospital for
causes other reasons than that infection. Colonization of microorganisms pave the
way for deaths, in detail, Ventilator Associated Pneumonia (VAP) is remarkable in
terms of mortality accounted for 15% of nosocomial infections. Ventilator associated
pneumonia (VAP) is common a disease, especially among patients that are on
connected ventilators in intensive care units. It is defined as the pneumonia, in which
occurs in at least 48 h ...Daha fazlası
The use of chemical anchors for the connection of existing structural elements with
the new elements during strengthening of existing structures is quite a preferred
method. Since in our country, chemical anchors are being widely used for repair and
strengthening works, there should be a standard of design and application on this topic.
Up to now, research done on the topic of chemical anchors, are mostly carried out on
concrete blocks of compressive strength 20 MPa and higher. Since parameters such as
distance from the edges, embedment depth and group effect were mostly ignored, the

The housing sector is one of the largest sector responsible for energy consumption in the world and Turkey. Sustainability is an emerging issue as energy related problems arises throughout the world. The sustainable sources are both clean energy sources and mostly renewable. Therefore, especially in terms of economy, these new energy sources are important opportunity for countries dependent on other countries energy. Turkey is rich in sustainable resources and especially Izmir province has good potential in terms of solar, wind and geothermal energy which are the most important sustainable sou ...Daha fazlası
The scarcity of suitable land for construction of engineering facilities and shortage of natural earth aggregates has highlighted the need for finding innovative way of construction. Nowadays problematic soils such as: soft clay, organic soils and liquefiable soils can be improved to the required civil engineering requirements by application of soil stabilization. Soil stabilization is a method intended to increase or preserve the stability of soil mass and chemical alteration of soil to improve engineering properties.
Generally, ground treatment techniques used are: densification, reinforcem ...Daha fazlası
The purpose of aggregating rubber is to increase concrete’s flexibility, elasticity, and
capacity to absorb energy. In some application of concrete, it is desired that concrete
should have low unit weight, high toughness and impact resistance. Although
concrete is the most commonly used construction material, it does not always fulfill
these requirements. In order to improve elastic properties of concrete and recycle the
waste materials, new applications have been realized recently. One of these
applications is the utilization of discarded tires in order to use together with
aggregate. ...Daha fazlası
This thesis presents both control of mobile robots that can move by using collective motion algorithm and simulation of the robots during the motion. The orientation of the robots was controlled remotely by one user during the collective motion. The transmission of orientation data from the remote controller to the robots was done by using XBee modules. The control algorithm of collective motion was developed by using individual-based model. Two modes are considered during the control. These modes are search and swarm mode.
The collective motion was performed by robots that are moving with re ...Daha fazlası
SERAMİK TABANLI 3B DOKU İSKELELERİNİN GELİŞTİRİLİP, ÜRETİLMESİ VE KARAKTERİZASYONU
ÖZET
Defekte uygun doku iskelesi üretimi kişiye özel yapay kemik uygulamalarında en kritik basamağı oluşturmaktadır. Üç boyutlu (3B) yazdırma özellikle kişiye özel uygulamalarda iç ve dış tasarımın yüksek kontrol edilebilirliği ile en iyi üretim tekniklerinden biridir. Bu çalışma kapsamında kemik doku mühendisliğine iyi bir alternatif oluşturmak üzere çinko katkılı, seramik temelli (kalsiyum sülfat (KS)) doku iskelelerinin 3B yazdırma ile geliştirilip üretilmesi ve karakterizasyon testlerinin yapılması amaçl ...Daha fazlası
KENDİLİĞİNDEN ORGANİZE TEK KATMAN TABAKALARI KULLANILARAK ORGANİK IŞIK YAYAN DİYOTLARIN VERİMİNİN ARTIRILMASI
ÖZET
Bu çalışma, organik ışık yayan diyotların (OLEDs) verimini artırmak için indiyum kalay oksit (ITO) yüzeyinin kendiliğinden organize tek katman tabakaları (SAM) ile modifiye ve karakterizasyonu üzerine yoğunlaşmıştır. Bilindiği gibi, ITO yüksek iletkenlik ve yüksek saydamlık özelliğinden dolayı OLED cihazlarında yaygın olarak anot malzemesi olarak kullanılmaktadır. Fakat metal elektrotun (ITO) çalışma fonksiyonu ile organik malzemelerin HOMO enerji seviyesi arasında yüksek enje ...Daha fazlası

THE EFFECT OF PULSED ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS FOR IN VITRO WOUND HEALING EXPOSURE SYSTEMS
SUMMARY
Electromagnetic fields have achieved important role as stimulator and therapeutic facility in biology and medicine (Blank & Findl, 2013). The effects of low magnitude, low frequency pulsed electromagnetic fields have been a period of study since past few decades, which was mainly on the treating soft tissue injuries, skin ulcers, nonuniform bone fractures and degenerative nerve healing (Hug & Röösli, 2012b). Chronic wounds are a major healthcare problem for patient morbidity and contribute signi ...Daha fazlası
DEVELOPING A NEW UTERINE MANIPULATOR (TRANSVAGINAL UTERUS AMPUTATION DEVICE) FOR TOTAL LAPAROSCOPIC HYSTERECTOMIES IN GYNECOLOGICAL SURGERIES
SUMMARY
Hysterectomy, that is removal of uterus, is one of the most common major operations in gynecologic surgeries. Laparoscopy technique is preferred in hysterectomy because of its advantages such as lower intra-operative blood loss, decreased surrounding tissue/organ damage, less operating time, lower postoperative infection and frequency of fever, shorter duration of hospitalization and post-operative returning time to normal activity.
