Municipal solid waste management via multi-criteria decision making methods: A case study in Istanbul Turkey
(Elsevier Science, 2018)
In contemporary era solid waste management has become an important issue for developing countries. Rapidly increasing population higher life-standards and technological advancements consistently increase the amount and the ...
Biomarkers of Secondhand Smoke Exposure in Waterpipe Tobacco Venue Employees in Istanbul Moscow and Cairo
(Oxford University Press, 2018)
Background: Most smoke-free legislation to reduce secondhand smoke (SHS) exposure exempts waterpipe (hookah) smoking venues. Few studies have examined SHS exposure in waterpipe venues and their employees. Methods: We ...
Steady state fluorescence technique for studying phase transitions in PAAm-PNIPA mixture
(Taylor & Francis, 2009)
The steady state fluorescence (SSF) technique was used to study the sol-gel phase transition during free radical crosslinking copolymerisation of various amounts of acrylamide (AAm) and N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPA) mixtures. ...
Polymer-Ceramic Nanocomposites
(Spie-Int Soc Optical Engineering, 2009)
Steady state fluorescence (SSF) and photon transmission (PT) techniques were used for studying film formation from TiO2 and Al2O3 covered polystyrene (PS) latex particles. These films were annealed at elevated temperatures ...

Towards Faster Branch Outage Simulations Using Simulated Annealing and Parallel Programming
(IEEE, 2009)
Contingency studies such as branch outage and generator outage are among important studies of energy management centers operations. Branch outage modeling on the other hand is one of the basic steps of post-outage state ...
Scaling Laws For Distributed Estimation Over Orthogonal Fading Channels
(IEEE, 2009)
We analyze the outage for distributed estimation over orthogonal fading channels as a function of the number of sensors K. We consider a scenario of fixed power per-sensor with an asymptotically large number of sensors. ...
Optimization Model for Distributed Routing for Disaster Area Logistics
(IEEE, 2009)
The problem of transportation in a disaster area can be seen broadly as having two aspects: (a) moving people and materials out of an area and (b) moving people and materiel into the same area. The common thread here is ...
Role conflict role ambiguity and proactive behaviors: does flexible role orientation moderate the mediating impact of engagement?
(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2019)
This study investigates the relationships between role conflict role ambiguity and proactive behaviors at work (i.e. individual innovation and taking charge) as mediated by work engagement. It also investigates the moderating ...
Fluorescence technique for monitoring swelling of PAAm-kappa-carrageenan gel composites
(Shaker Publishing, 2009)
Steady-state fluorescence (SSF) technique was employed for studying swelling of polyacrylamide (PAAm) gels with various content of kappa- carrageenan. Disc shaped composite gels were prepared by free-radical cross/inking ...
