Perception, petroleum, and power: Mythmaking in oil-scarce Turkey and Jordan
(Elsevier, 2020)
Oil has been a cardinal driver of economic growth and national development in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. States that produce oil in globally exportable quantities tend to be more powerful than those that do ...
Multi-verse optimization algorithm- and salp swarm optimization algorithm-based optimization of multilevel inverters
(Springer, 2020)
Renewable energy sources are installed into both distribution and transmission grids more and more with the introduction of smart grid concept. Hence, efficient usage of cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverters (MLIs) for ...
Managing natural gas demand for free consumers under uncertainty and limited storage capacity
(Elsevier, 2020)
Demand for energy sources depends on several factors such as population growth, urbanization, industrialization, and climate. Among fundamental energy sources, natural gas is characterized by storage limitations and ...
A multidimensional investigation of pretend play and language competence: Concurrent and longitudinal relations in preschoolers
(Elsevier, 2020)
Play is an important tool for children's social interactions and cognitive skills. The current study examines the links between pretend play and language in 119 Turkish preschoolers at two time points tested one-year apart ...
Homology modeling of human GABA-AT and devise some novel and potent inhibitors via computer-aided drug design techniques
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2020)
Gamma-aminobutyric acid aminotransferase (GABA-AT) is a pyridoxal 5 '-phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzyme which degrades gamma-aminobutyric (GABA) in the brain. GABA is an important inhibitory neurotransmitter that plays ...
Competition and monopoly in the U.S. economy: What do the industrial concentration data show?
(Sage Publications, 2021)

An intelligent approach for the evaluation of innovation projects
(IOS Press, 2020)
In this study, an intelligent approach is presented for the evaluation and selection of innovation projects. Selecting the best innovation project is a complicated multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) problem with ...
Identification of potential inhibitors of human methionine aminopeptidase (type II) for cancer therapy: Structure-based virtual screening, ADMET prediction and molecular dynamics studies
(Elsevier, 2020)
Methionine Aminopeptidases MetAPs are divalent-cofactor dependent enzymes that are responsible for the cleavage of the initiator Methionine from the nascent polypeptides. MetAPs are classified into two isoforms: namely, ...
Fluorescence and photon transmission techniques for studying film formation from PS/GO nanocomposites
(SPRINGER, 2020)
Steady-state fluorescence and UV-Vis techniques were used to study the film formation behavior of composites consisting of pyrene (P)-labeled polystyrene (PS) latex and graphene oxide (GO) in terms of PS latex/GO volume ...
Determining matchdays in sports league schedules to minimize rest differences
(ELSEVIER, 2020)
Many sports leagues first announce the games to be played in each round and then determine their matchdays as the season progresses. This study focuses on the fairness criterion of minimizing the total rest difference among ...
