Evaluating the fundamental components of traditional Turkish music, particularly the concepts of "usul" (rhythmic composition) and "makam" (musical mode), as well as their significance in the composition and performance of works, has been a focus not only in musical practice but also in academic music studies. Nevertheless, certain issues pertaining to the functional analysis of rhythms, especially the larger rhythmic cycles, such as what they inherently represent in musical reality, how they are utilized, comprehended, and what roles they play in the composition and performance processes, hav ...Daha fazlası
The levels of heavy metals viz., Cd, Cu, Fe, Ni, Pb, Zn and Al were determined by ICP-AES in the
muscles and total bodies of Mullus barbatus (Linnaeus 1758), Trachurus trachurus (Linnaeus 1758),
Engraulis encrasicolus (Linnaeus 1758) captured from the coast of Sinop. The order of the levels of
the heavy metals in the total fish samples was Fe > Zn > Al > Pb > Cu > Ni > Cd, whereas in the
muscles, the order was Zn > Fe > Cu > Al > Pb > Ni > Cd. The experiment results are discussed by
comparison with literature values.
Automatic systems can be used in many areas, such as the production stage in factories, country defense, and traffic control. They provide the opportunity to reach results faster with higher success rates thanks to human-computer vision cooperation. In this study, it is aimed to develop an intelligent system that automatically detects and classifies defects in fabrics. Thanks to the developed system, the cause of the malfunction is eliminated, and the recurrence of the malfunction is prevented. Using deep learning methods in fabric defect classification studies has a disadvantage compared to o ...Daha fazlası
This study proposes an appropriate optimization model for determining a new composite material's mechanical properties by neuro-regression analysis. This new composite material is obtained by combining hemp and polypropylene fibers. It was developed for the sector of upholstered furniture. First, different multiple regression models have been tried for input and output values. The R2 training, R2 testing, R2 validation, and minimum, maximum values were determined for each model. Then, the stochastic optimization approach is used to predict and optimize the mechanical properties of the new bioc ...Daha fazlası
This study investigates the optimum weld area on a popular aerospace alloy (i.e., Inconel 825) made by the electron beam welding technique. Welding speed (S), beam current (I), accelerating voltage (V), and beam oscillation (O) are considered as process parameters to study the weld bead area (WA) of the weldments. An instructive study on multiple non-linear neural regression analyses has been done as a basic introduction to neuro regression modeling with artificial neural network (ANN) philosophy. To do this, the experimental prediction has been modeled with 14 predictive functional structures ...Daha fazlası
2020 is the International Year of the Nurse and Midwife and the 200th anniversary of Florence Nightingale’s birth; a year meant for celebration, and a deeper look at the importance of the nursing role in the future of healthcare. Today, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the role of the nurse and the urgent need for investment of this precious resource is at the forefront of many health policy makers’ agendas. As we entered 2020, many countries were already facing a nursing shortage. The World Health Organization’s first State of the World’s Nursing report, launched in April this year, reported a g ...Daha fazlası
Objective: To study and compare the effects of different demineralizationinhibition
methods on the shear bond strength (SBS) and fracture mode of an
adhesive used to bond orthodontic brackets to demineralized enamel surfaces.
Methods: Eighty freshly extracted, human maxillary premolars were divided
into 4 equal groups and demineralized over the course of 21 days. Brackets were
bonded to the demineralized enamel of teeth in Group 1. In Group 2, bonding
was performed following resin infi ltration (ICON®, DMG, Hamburg, Germany).
Before bonding, pre-treatment with acidulated phosphate fluor ...Daha fazlası
To evaluate the shear bond strength (SBS), fracture mode, wire pull out (WPO) resistance and microleakage between low-shrinking and conventional composites used as a lingual retainer adhesive. Methods: A total of 120 human mandibular incisor teeth, extracted for periodontal reasons, were collected. Sixty of them were separated into two groups. To determine the SBS, either Transbond-LR (3M-Unitek) or Silorane (3M-Espe) was applied to the lingual surface of the teeth by packing the material into standard cylindrical plastic matrices (Ultradent) to simulate the lingual retainer bonding area. To t ...Daha fazlası
