The mask and the social actors social, political, aesthetic and cultural functions of the mask
(Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2022-09)The mask, which dates back to the earliest periods of human history, is an object that has found a place in our lives over time, except for mythical ceremonies and special days. Even though humanity has partially severed ... -
Master problem approximations in Dantzig-Wolfe decomposition of variational inequality problems with applications to two energy market models
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2013)In this paper a modification to Dantzig-Wolfe (DW) decomposition algorithm for variational inequality (VI) problems is considered to alleviate the computational burden and to facilitate model management and maintenance. ... -
Maternal behaviors mediate the relationship between socioeconomic status and joint attention
(Elsevier Ltd, 2021)Socioeconomic status (SES) is strongly related to parental behaviors and the quality of parent-child interactions. We examined whether through maternal behaviors, SES is linked to joint attention (JA), an important form ... -
A mathematical characterization of the gel point in sol-gel transition
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2015)We model the sol-gel transition in terms of Susceptible-Infected-Removed (SIR) and Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Removed (SEIR) models and compare with experimental results. We show, numerically, that the "gel point" described ... -
Mathematical Characterization of Thermo-reversible Phase Transitions of Agarose Gels
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2018)The thermal phase transition temperatures of high (HMP) and low melting point (LMP) agarose gels were investigated by using UV-vis spectroscopy techniques. Transmitted light intensities from the gel samples with different ... -
A MATHEMATICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE CRITICAL POINT IN PHASE TRANSITIONS
(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2013)Let y(x) be a smooth sigmoidal curve, y((n)) be its nth derivative and {x(m,i)} and {x(a,i)}, i = 1, 2, ... , be the set of points where respectively the derivatives of odd and even order reach their extreme values. We ... -
Mathematical modeling to the motion control of magnetic nano/microrobotic tools performing in bodily fluids, especially blood/plasma
(Elsevier, 2021)The use of microrobotic systems for therapeutic applications has been a hot topic for the last two decades with ever growing interest. One particular application envisioned is the use of untethered robotic devices of the ... -
Mathematical models for phase transitions in biogels
(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2019-03-30)It has been shown that reversible and irreversible phase transitions of biogels can be represented by epidemic models. The irreversible chemical sol-gel transitions are modeled by the Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Removed ... -

Max-pivot routing for opportunistic networks
(2013)Opportunistic networks are challenging types of networks where network connections are imminent. Network topologies are dynamic and can rapidly change. A path between a source node and a destination node may or may not ... -
Maximal linear subspaces of strong self-dual 2-forms and the Bonan 4-form
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2011)The notion of self-duality of 2-forms in 4-dimensions plays an eminent role in many areas of mathematics and physics, but although the 2-forms have a genuine meaning related to curvature and gauge-field-strength in higher ... -
Maximally random discrete-spin systems with symmetric and asymmetric interactions and maximally degenerate ordering
(Amer Physical Soc., 2018)Discrete-spin systems with maximally random nearest-neighbor interactions that can be symmetric or asymmetric ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic including off-diagonal disorder are studied for the number of states q = 34 ... -
The maximum surplus in a finite-time interval for a discrete-time risk model with exchangeable dependent claim occurrences
(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2019)This paper investigates a discrete-time risk model that involves exchangeable dependent loss generating claim occurrences and compound binomially distributed aggregate loss amounts. First a general framework is presented ... -
A max–min model of random variables in bivariate random sequences
(Elsevier, 2021)We introduce a max–min model to bivariate random sequences and applying bivariate binomial distribution in fourfold scheme derive the distributions of associated order statistics in a new model. Some examples for special ... -
An MCDM approach to third party logistics provider selection
(Inderscience Publishers, 2023)In order to focus on their main skills and be more competitive and efficient in business, firms frequently outsource their logistics functions to a third party logistics (3PL) provider. Evaluation and selection of a 3PL ... -

Measurement of bivariate risks by the north-south quantile points approach
(Elsevier Science, 2014)This paper attempts to determine the Value at Risk (VaR) and Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR) measures for the sum of bivariate risks under dependence. The computation of these risk measures is performed by the north-south ... -
Measurement of oxygen diffusion in PS/PNIPAM films using fluorescence quenching
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2015)The diffusion of oxygen into pyrene labelled polystyrene (PS) latex/poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) composite films (PS/PNIPAM) was studied based on PS content with the use of fluorescence quenching method. Fluorescence ... -
Measurement-Based Large Scale Statistical Modeling of Air-to-Air Wireless UAV Channels via Novel Time-Frequency Analysis
(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2022)Any operation scenario for unmanned aerial vehicles also known as drones in real world requires resilient wireless link to guarantee capacity and performance for users, which can only be achieved by obtaining detailed ... -
Measuring bank branch performance using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA): The case of Turkish bank branches
(Academic Journals, 2011)The aim of this study is to develop a performance model for measuring the relative efficiency and potential improvement capabilities of bank branches by identifying their strengths and weaknesses. Another purpose is to ...
