ABSTRACTCoal is one of the most important energy resources used in many countries for decades to produce energy. A type of fire called coal fires occurs when the coal surface is exposed to sunlight and in contact with oxygen for a long time in coal mine areas where coal is extracted. Coal fires are prevalent and critical incidents for most coal mining areas around the world. Various problems arise due to coal fires in coal mines. These problems affect many factors such as environment, society, economy and security directly or indirectly. Burning coal fire causes the formation of poisonous gase ...Daha fazlası
Mobility is the basic need for functionality in human life. Physically disabled people often require mobility aids and wheelchairs are the most commonly preferred assistive mobility devices for enhancing independent functional mobility. Today, powered and manual wheelchair technology is available. Manual wheelchair propulsion necessitates more repetitive loading, but because the human body is not designed for such movement, musculoskeletal and functional issues such as pain and joint limitation may arise among manual wheelchair users. They require more support from their spine, arm, elbow, and ...Daha fazlası
Objective: In this study investigates the effect of the type and volume of solution used in inflation of the foley catheter balloon on the development of urine leakage around the catheter during indwelling urethral catheterization. Material and Method: This randomized controlled experimental study was conducted with 128 patients hospitalized in the intensive care unit and carried out between 2015 and 2019. In each study group, different types and volumes of the solution including 10 mL 0.9% sodium chloride, 15 mL 0.9% sodium chloride, 10 mL sterile distilled water, and 15 mL sterile distilled ...Daha fazlası
Significant development of radar systems after World War II has led to studying the interaction between electromagnetic waves at radar frequencies and different materials. One perspective of these studies is to ascertain ways of decreasing reflected waves. However, the applications have not been limited only to defense applications but also to different fields where human beings are exposed to electromagnetic waves to avoid potential health effects due to exposure to electromagnetic waves. Since the discovery of radar systems, many studies have focused on electromagnetic radiation and absorbin ...Daha fazlası
ÖZETHer geçen gün artan hava kirliliği ile önem kazanan karbondioksit emisyonunun azaltılmasına yönelik çalışmalar her alanda devam etmektedir. Elektrik üretimi, taşımacılık gibi hava kirliliğinin büyük kısmını oluşturan alanlarda gaz türbini kullanımı yaygındır. Gelişime açık bu motorlar ile verimi arttırmak ve yakıt tasarrufu sağlamak amacıyla çalışılan yöntemlerden biri olan reküperatör tasarımı bu tezin konusudur. Yer ve hava olmak üzere iki farklı mikro gas türbin motoru için borulu ısı değiştirici basınç kaybı ve sıcaklık artışı dikkate alınarak modellenmiştir. Hava tipi motorlarda alan ...Daha fazlası
ABSTRACTIndustrial robots currently used in industry all have their own interfaces and unique languages. These commonly used interfaces and languages are often limited to industry needs. Although there are several robotic solutions, practically all of them can't rectify problems on their own. When a program is required for a more complex task, machine vision locates objects and puts them in desired locations and for situations such as applying the correct force for assembly operations by measuring with force-torque sensors, they often need third-party programs as existing systems cannot respon ...Daha fazlası
ABSTRACTWhile droplet moves over surfaces, various structures are observed
cusp and corner formation, pearling, pinning/depinning, to name a few. We develop a finite element method (FEM) based solver to analyze three-dimensional motion of slender droplets over several substrates. To get accurate results within a feasible computation time, an adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) based on non-conformal, balanced and preload quadtree mesh structure is embedded within our quadratic FEM solver to focus our computational power on specific regions like contact lines. We validate our solver with the power-l ...Daha fazlası

Objective: During the COVID-19 pandemic, elderly adults’ nutritional habits, physical activity levels and the levels of malnutrition were affected. This study investigated the prevalence of malnutrition and physical fitness and exercise activity levels in home dwelling elderly during the COVID-19 pandemic. Material and Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted with a face-to-face questionnaire on 670 (male: 241, female: 429) home-dwelling older adults with a mean age of 70.66±5.83 years. The nutritional screening and evaluation were performed using Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA), and ...Daha fazlası
