This paper compares the effects of economic uncertainty and geopolitical risks on bank credit growth. Using a sample of 2439 banks from 19 countries for the period of 2010–2019, our findings indicate that economic uncertainty ...
Fine motor abilities and parental input of spatial features predict object word comprehension of Turkish-learning children
(WILEY, 2021-06)
Object word learning can be based on infant-related factors such as their manual actions and socio-linguistic factors such as parental input. Specific input for spatial features (i.e., size, shape, features of objects) can ...
Spatial Constellation Design Based Generalized Space Shift Keying for Physical Layer Security of Multi-User MIMO Communication Systems
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2021)
We propose a novel spatial constellation design (SCD) method with generalized space shift keying (GSSK-SCD) signaling for physical layer security (PLS) in multi-user (MU) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication ...
Component value calculations in a mixed element ladder network containing series capacitors separated by unit elements
(WILEY, 2021-05)
Lossless LC ladder networks have many applications. But at high frequencies, inductor-free designs are preferred since inductors are heavy and have limited values. An additional reason for not using the inductors (at high ...
Art investment: hedging or safe haven through financial crises
(Springer, 2020)
We analyze long-term art auction sales data focusing on and around financial crisis periods with other investment returns to understand whether art can be considered a safe haven during volatile times or a hedging option ...
Flexible physical layer based resource allocation for machine type communications towards 6G
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2020)
The exponential growth of Internet of Things applications necessitates the design of next generation cellular systems to provide native support for machine type communications (MTC). While 5G aims at providing this native ...

The Qatar crisis of June 2017 commenced without a warning and restored overlooked regional security dynamics to the state, the political elite, and the Qatari society at large. Qatar was cautious about the diversions of ...
FINANCIAL RESILIENCE TO THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC: THE ROLE OF BANKING MARKET STRUCTURE
(ROUTLEDGE JOURNALS, 2021-03)
This article examines whether differences in banking market structures across countries influence the local stock market resilience to the COVID-19 pandemic. Using a sample of 66 countries for the period January 2020 to ...
Surfactant-free one-step fabrication of gelatin/PAAm/MWCNT composites for biomedical applications
(Springer, 2021)
Well-dispersed multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) and gelatin-enhanced polyacrylamide (PAAm) composites were synthesized via a free-radical copolymerization method. MWCNTs were added to the composite mixture in various ...
Assessment and simulation of water transfer for the megacity Istanbul
(Bellwether Publishing, Ltd., 2021)
The population of Istanbul increased from three to fifteen million from 1970 to 2018. The city, which has no perennial fresh water resources within its metropolitan boundaries, has long imported water from other basins. ...
