Overlapping board connections with banker directors and corporate loan terms: Evidence from syndicated loans
(Elsevier, 2021)
I look at the relationship between corporate loan terms and board members' connections to bankers through employment on other boards, a connection relatively unaffected by confounding factors. Using syndicated loan data, ...
Incentivizing Farmers to Invest in Quality through Quality-Based Payment
(Wiley, 2021)
We consider a for-profit cooperative that sets a quality-based payment to its risk-averse farmers in order to incentivize them to invest in quality improvements. The quality of the farmer's harvest is affected by his ...
Cinematic Visual Representation of Refugee Journeys in Turkey in the Context of Precarious Class Dynamics
(Transnational Press London, 2020)
In this article, I comparatively analyse the imagery of precarious class through the narration of refugee journeys in Turkey for two different films, with an emphasis on the visuality of cinematic narration. Whilst The ...
Turkish Foreign Policy in the Chaos of War, 1939-1945
(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2021)
The World War II marked an important watershed for Turkey's foreign policy. It caught Turkey in the middle of a nation and state-building processes as well as still recovering from the damages of the previous war. Thus ...
Cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverters optimization using adaptive grey wolf optimizer with local search
(Springer, 2021)
With the transformation of transmission and distribution grids into smart grids that are more dominated by renewable energy, power electronics-based inverters that can improve power quality are becoming more visible. In ...
The Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm for Optimal Energy Resource Planning
(IEEE, 2021)
This study presents a new formulation regarding optimal placement and sizing of multi-type distributed generations (DGs) and energy storage systems (ESSs) to enhance the reliability of a radial distribution system and to ...
Assessment of load and generation modelling on the quasi-static analysis of distribution networks
(Elsevier, 2021)
Quasi-static analysis of power systems can be performed by means of timeseries-based and probability density function-based models. In this paper, the effect of different load and generation modelling approaches on the ...
Analysis and Optimization of the Network Throughput in IEEE 802.15.13 based Visible Light Communication Networks
(IEEE, 2021)
In line with the growing interest on visible light communication (VLC), IEEE has initiated standardization efforts on this emerging technology. In this work, we consider IEEE 802.15.13 Optical Wireless Personal Area Networks ...
Power Output Prediction of Wave Farms Using Fully Connected Networks
(IEEE, 2021)
One of the most important factors in the amount of power generated by a wave farm is the Wave Energy Converters (WECs) arrangement along with the usual wave conditions. Therefore, forming an appropriate arrangement of WECs ...
Sensitivity of computational fluid dynamics simulations against soft errors
(Springer Wien, 2021)
Computational capabilities of the largest high performance computing systems have increased by more than 100 folds in the last 10 years and keep increasing substantially every year. This increase is made possible mostly ...
