Competing frameworks of Islamic law and secular civil law in Turkey: A case study on women's property and inheritance practices
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2015)
The article stems from empirical research conducted with a group of women living in Istanbul who have conservative life styles bounded by an Islamic worldview. It attempts to illuminate the negotiation and contestation ...
Partial Power and Rate Adaptation for MQAM/OFDM Systems under CFO
(IEEE, 2014)
In this paper a new partial power and rate adaptation scheme for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems is proposed in the presence of carrier frequency offset (CFO). The conventional adaptive scheme is ...
Collectivity in Heavy Nuclei in the Shell Model Monte Carlo Approach
(EDP Sciences, 2014)
The microscopic description of collectivity in heavy nuclei in the framework of the configuration-interaction shell model has been a major challenge. The size of the model space required for the description of heavy nuclei ...
The Impacts of Tablet Use for Eliminating the Time-Space Barriers in University Education: A Turkish Experience
(Springer-Verlag Berlin, 2014)
Mobile learning applications are widely used in various levels of education process. In developing and developed countries educational institutions use tablets and personal computers for supporting learning processes. ...
Contraction Blockers for Graphs with Forbidden Induced Paths
(Springer-Verlag Berlin, 2015)
We consider the following problem: can a certain graph parameter of some given graph be reduced by at least d for some integer d via at most k edge contractions for some given integer k? We examine three graph parameters: ...
The Cold War Origins of the Turkish Motor Vehicle Industry: The Tuzla Jeep 1954-1971
(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2014)
With its automobile exports measured in millions of units annually Turkey has become one of the top automobile producing nations in Europe. The current state of the Turkish motor vehicle industry stands in contrast to its ...
Level Densities of Heavy Nuclei in the Shell Model Monte Carlo Approach
(EDP Sciences, 2016)
Nuclear level densities are necessary input to the Hauser-Feshbach theory of compound nuclear reactions. However the microscopic calculation of level densities in the presence of correlations is a challenging many-body ...
Persistence of Vibrational Collectivity in Nuclear Level Densities
(E D P SCIENCES, 2016)
By applying the particle-number projection to the finite-temperature BCS theory to the state densities in the rare-earth nuclei and comparing its results to the SMMC ones we investigate effects of the particle-number ...
Multifaceted Dynamics of Janus Oscillator Networks
(Amer Physical Soc., 2019)
Recent research has led to the discovery of fundamental new phenomena in network synchronization including chimera states explosive synchronization and asymmetry-induced synchronization. Each of these phenomena has thus ...
Dynamic Multi Threshold Priority Packet Scheduling Algorithms
(EDP Sciences, 2015)
Packet scheduling algorithms are developed in order to use shared transmission resources efficiently. Various application packets such as real and non-real time packets might have different QoS requirements and traditional ...
