Turkey's Energy Strategy and the Middle East: Between a Rock and a Hard Place
(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2011)
This article examines Turkey's energy relations with the Middle East from a perspective of opportunities and limitations brought about by the structure of Turkey's general energy relations. As Turkish foreign policy and ...
Improving performances of suboptimal greedy iterative biclustering heuristics via localization
(Oxford University Press, 2010)
Motivation: Biclustering gene expression data is the problem of extracting submatrices of genes and conditions exhibiting significant correlation across both the rows and the columns of a data matrix of expression values. ...
The Effect Of Surfaces On The Orientational Properties and Phase Transitions Peculiarities Of A Nonpolar Smectogen
(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2010)
The effect of thin films on the orientational and optical properties of nonpolar monolayer smectogen 4-butoxyphenyl-4'-decyloxybenzoate ((10) over barO (4) over bar) liquid crystal has been studied by polarizing microscopy ...
A Farewell to King Coal: Geopolitics, Energy Security, and the Transition to Oil, 1898–1917
(Cambridge Univ Press, 2019)
Interest in energy transitions has accelerated in recent years due to rising concerns about global warming and resource scarcity but the drivers of these phenomena are not well understood. To date scholars have primarily ...
Joint Channel Estimation Equalization and Data Detection for OFDM Systems in the Presence of Very High Mobility
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2010)
This paper is concerned with the challenging and timely problem of joint channel estimation equalization and data detection for uplink orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems in the presence of frequency ...
Civilizational futures: Clashes or alternative visions in the age of globalization?
(Elsevier Science, 2010)
This article underlines the existing similarities between Samuel Huntington's civilizational approach hypothesis and the fundamentals of political Islam. The similarity pertains to the argument related to the gradual ...
Force-Directed Approaches to Sensor Localization
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2010)
As the number of applications of sensor networks increases so does the interest in sensor network localization that is in recovering the correct position of each node in a network of sensors from partial connectivity ...
Particle Size Effect on the Film-Forming Process of PS/PBA Composite Latexes
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2010)
In this work the effect of hard particle size and blend ratio on the film formation behavior of hard polystyrene (PS) and soft poly(n-butyl acrylate) (PBA) latex blends was studied by means of steady-state fluorescence and ...
Comparison of cation effects on phase transitions of kappa and iota carrageenan
(European Polymer Federation, 2010)
Phase transitions of kappa and iota carrageenan in KCl NaCl and CaCl2 solutions were separately studied during heating and cooling processes by using fluorescence technique. Scattered light I-SC and fluorescence intensity ...
Maximally random discrete-spin systems with symmetric and asymmetric interactions and maximally degenerate ordering
(Amer Physical Soc., 2018)
Discrete-spin systems with maximally random nearest-neighbor interactions that can be symmetric or asymmetric ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic including off-diagonal disorder are studied for the number of states q = 34 ...
