Growth and shape stability of Cu-Ni core-shell nanoparticles: an atomistic perspective
(Royal Soc Chemistry, 2018)
The growth and shape stability of bi-metallic cubic Cu-Ni nanoparticles are studied using atomic-level simulations. Cubic nano-crystals coated with an ultra-thin Cu layer can be readily obtained when Ni cubic nanoparticles ...
Time Space and Closure in Karamanlidika Temasa-i Dunya ve Cefakar u Cefakes : Rewriting Polipathis
(Ahmet Yesevi University, 2018)
This article criticises the argument that then arrative fiction called Temasa-i Dunya ve Cefakar u Cefakes (1871-1872) by Evangelinos Misailidis (1820-1890) an Ottoman Christian-Orthodox citizen is just a mere imitation ...
Cumulative prospect theory preferences in rent-seeking contests
(Elsevier Science, 2018)
We investigate the equilibrium behavior for agents with cumulative prospect theory preferences in rent-seeking contests. Characterizing the equilibrium effort levels we present results on the existence of equilibrium and ...
Contraction and deletion blockers for perfect graphs and H-free graphs
(Elsevier Science, 2018)
We study the following problem: for given integers d k and graph G can we reduce some fixed graph parameter pi of G by at least d via at most k graph operations from some fixed set S? As parameters we take the chromatic ...
Pharmacophore-based virtual screening for identification of potential selective inhibitors of human histone deacetylase 6
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2018)
Histone deacetylase (HDAC) 6 plays a role in oncogenic transformation and cancer metastasis via tubulin deacetylation, making it a critical target for anticancer drug design. However, lack of selectivity shown by many of ...
Channel Estimation for TDS-OFDM Systems in Rapidly Time-Varying Mobile Channels
(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2018)
This paper explores the performance of time-domain synchronous orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (TDS-OFDM) systems operated under rapidly time-varying mobile channels. Since a rapidly time-varying channel contains ...
The "Karakoncolos / Kalikancaros" Belief in Turkish and Greek Sources
(Milli Folklor Dergisi, 2018)
The belief in "karakoncolos / kalikancaros" is seen in a wide geography spreading from Central Anatolia and Black Sea region in Turkey to Balkan Peninsula including Greece, Bulgaria and Serbia. Though karakoncolos is defined ...
Border as "Zone of Indistinction": The State of Exception and the Spectacle of Terror Along Turkey's Border With Syria
(Sage Publications Inc, 2018)
Turkey's border with Syria today is a laboratory in which biopolitics and the spectacle coincide in new ways. As a consequence of the ongoing war between the state and Kurdish insurgents, and the state of emergency ...
Overcoming the shortcomings of energy intensity index: a directional technology distance function approach
(Springer, 2018)
In multilateral comparisons of environmental performance over time, energy intensity measures, especially "real" energy intensity computed either by index decomposition approach or structural decomposition approach, are ...
Terror as potentiality - the affective rhythms of the political
(Routledge Journals, 2018)
The paper addresses the ways in which the cultural, the affective and the political intersect, counter and/or feed upon one another in the context of contemporary terror. Initially, building upon Machiavelli and Hobbes, ...
