Applying a behavioural and operational diagnostic typology of competitive intelligence practice: empirical evidence from the SME sector in Turkey
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2012)
This paper reports on an empirical study conducted within the SME sector in the city of Istanbul Turkey. The findings from this study enabled the creation of a behavioural and operational typology of competitive intelligence ...
A low-complexity KL expansion-based channel estimator for OFDM systems
(2005)
This paper first proposes a computationally efficient pilot-aided linear minimum mean square error (MMSE) batch channel estimation algorithm for OFDM systems in unknown wireless fading channels. The proposed approach employs ...

Synthesis of resistively terminated LC ladder networks
(Istanbul University, 2011)
In this work element value calculation algorithms have been proposed for low-pass high-pass band-pass and band-stop LC ladder networks. According to the calculated constant from the given transfer scattering matrix the ...
The effects of higher-order approximations in a fluid-filled elastic tube with stenosis
(Verlag der Zeitschrift fur Naturforschung, 2006)
Treating arteries as thin-walled prestressed elastic tubes with a narrowing (stenosis) and blood as an inviscid fluid we study the propagation of weakly nonlinear waves in such a fluid-filled elastic tube by employing the ...
Self-efficacy and hemodialysis treatment: A qualitative and quantitative approach
(Turkish Association of Nervous and Mental Health, 2013)
The theoretically driven approach to the measurement of self-efficacy fails to capture the challenges that hemodialysis patients experience in following their dietary and fluid restrictions. Aims: A combination of qualitative ...
On the inverse point-source problem of the poisson equation
(Istanbul University, 2005)
In this work a basic inverse heat conduction problem of a simple 2-D model with steady state heat source is taken into view. The physical problem is for a square region with uniform thermophysical properties and a point ...
