Synthesis, Anticancer Activity on Prostate Cancer Cell Lines and Molecular Modeling Studies of Flurbiprofen-Thioether Derivatives as Potential Target of MetAP (Type II)
(Bentham Science PUBL LTD, 2020)
Background: Prostate cancer is still one of the serious causes of mortality and morbidity in men. Despite recent advances in anticancer therapy, there is a still need of novel agents with more efficacy and specificity in ...
Overcoming the Egyptian cotton crisis in the interwar period: the role of irrigation, drainage, new seeds, and access to credit
(Blackwell Publishing, 2021)
After experiencing a period of spectacular growth during the late nineteenth century, the Egyptian cotton sector underwent a phase of stagnation, which was followed by a gradual and steady increase in output during the ...
A Dynamic Game Theory Model For Tourism Supply Chains
(Sage Publications, 2021)
This article contributes to the game-theoretic analysis of tourism supply chains. We start with a baseline model including three types of agents: (a) one theme park, (b) multiple accommodation providers, and (c) multiple ...
Complete density calculations of q-state Potts and clock models: Reentrance of interface densities under symmetry breaking
(Amer Physical Soc, 2020)
All local bond-state densities are calculated for q-state Potts and clock models in three spatial dimensions, d = 3. The calculations are done by an exact renormalization group on a hierarchical lattice, including the ...
Audience Tracking and Cheering Content Control in Sports Events
(IEEE, 2020)
Swearing cheers encountered in sports competitions do not comply with sports ethics and morals. Even if this kind of cheering is a group, the entire tribune block is penalized in accordance with the current rules. This ...
'Who wants left-wing policies? Economic preferences and political cleavages in Turkey'
(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020)
We administer a survey of economic policy preferences to a representative sample of the Turkish voting-age population. We show that policy preferences are distributed in non-linear ways that are at odds with what could be ...
Heterogeneous effects of minimum wage on labor market outcomes: A case study from Turkey
(Walter de Gruyter, 2020)
We assess the effects of a sharp minimum wage increase on wages, informality, and employment in Turkey, a large developing economy with one of the highest minimum wage-to-average wage ratios among OECD countries and ...
'Just the way my generation reads the news': News consumption habits of youth in Turkey and the UK
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2020)
Audiences' media use and news consumption behaviour are constantly shifting. Some scholars note that the growing decline in youth's news consumption raises concerns about the future of democracy in various media systems. ...
Greasing the wheels: the Berlin-Baghdad railway and Ottoman oil, 1888?1907
(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020)
In the 1880s, Germany cultivated an alliance with the Ottoman Empire that led to a concession to build one of history?s most storied, diplomatically contentious, and financially challenging infrastructure projects: the ...
Development of a parallel 3D navier–stokes solver for sediment transport calculations in channels
(MDPI AG, 2020)
We propose a method to parallelize a 3D incompressible Navier–Stokes solver that uses a fully implicit fractional-step method to simulate sediment transport in prismatic channels. The governing equations are transformed ...
