    Effects of role-playing scenarios on the self-efficacy of students in resisting against substance addiction: A pilot study

    Karatay, Gülnaz; Baş, Nazan Gürarslan

    During the first phases of adolescent development, young people have little self-efficacy and resistance against substance use. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the effectiveness of role-playing scenarios on the self-efficacy of students in resisting substance use. A pre test and post test study design was used with a single group. The study was carried out with 245 secondary school students. The scenario-based training, developed by the researchers, was presented by the school counselors once a week for 4 weeks. For this purpose, a booklet of scenarios was prepared for the teachers. The role-playing scenarios were intended to improve adolescents’ abilities to say "no" to substance offers, to prevent them from becoming addicted to certain substances, and to call for help if needed. The data of the study were collected using the Personal Information Form and the Self-Efficacy for Adolescences Protecting Substance Abuse Scale. The obtained data were assessed using percentages, chi-square, t test, and F test in the SPSS software. Results showed that, after the training, the mean score in the Self-Efficacy for Adolescences Protecting Substance Abuse Scale increased significantly (103.20 ± 20.00) compared with before the training (92.11 ± 17.08) (P <.05). Short-term outcomes of the class-based scenario training were observed to be effective in the development of students’ self-efficacy to resist the temptations of substance use.

    Calibration-free extraction of constitutive parameters of magnetically coupled anisotropic metamaterials using waveguide measurements

    Hasar, U.C.; Buldu, G.; Bute, M.; Muratoglu, A.

    A calibration-free method for extraction of electromagnetic properties of magnetically coupled anisotropic biaxial metamaterial (MM) slabs from waveguide measurements is proposed. It relies on three measurement steps (thru, empty line, and the same line arbitrarily loaded by the MM slab) to extract electromagnetic properties. It is evaluated against another calibration-dependent method for retrieval of electromagnetic properties of a MM slab constructed by C-shaped resonators. From evaluation analysis, we note that our method, as compared to the calibration-dependent method, not only accurately extracts electromagnetic properties without requiring the use of expensive calibration standards but also is reference-invariant.

    Control of vortex shedding using a screen attached on the separation point of a circular cylinder and its effect on drag

    Ozkan, Gokturk Memduh; Firat, Erhan; Akilli, Huseyin

    The control of flow in the wake of a circular cylinder by an attached permeable plate having various porosity ratios was analyzed experimentally using both particle image velocimetry (PIV) and dye visualization techniques. The force measurements were also done in order to interpret the effect of control method on drag coefficient. The diameter of the cylinder and length to diameter ratio of the plate were kept constant as D=50mm and L/D=1.0, respectively. The porosity ratio, β, which can be defined as the ratio of open surface area to the whole body surface area, was taken as β=0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, and 0.8 (permeable plates). The study was performed considering deep water flow conditions with a constant Reynolds number of ReD=5000 based on the cylinder diameter. Each permeable plate was attached on the separation point and the results were compared with the results of cylinder without permeable plate (plain cylinder) in order to understand the control effect. Both qualitative and quantitative results revealed that the permeable plates of 0.4 ≤ β ≤ 0.6 are effective on controlling the unsteady flow structure downstream of the cylinder, i.e., the vortex formation length was increased, turbulent statistics was reduced and vortex shedding frequency was diminished when the permeable plate attached normal to the cylinder surface from the lower separation point. However, the drag force acting on the cylinder was found to be increased due to the increased cross-sectional area.

    Retrieval of electromagnetic properties of metamaterials with weak-coupling

    Hasar, Ugur Cem; Buldu, Gul; Barroso, Joaquim Jose

    Metamaterials (MMs) are engineered material with electromagnetic properties not commonly seen by natural materials such as negative refraction and near-zero permittivity. These materials have interesting applications ranging from perfect lens and electromagnetic cloaks to leaky-wave antennas and shifters. For such applications, electromagnetic properties of MMs are needed to be known. In this study, we propose a waveguide method for accurate electromagnetic parameter retrieval of weakly-coupled MM slabs (the wavevector is normal to the plane of the metallic inclusions). To achieve our goal, new expressions for effective permittivity and permeability as well as the magnetoelectric coupling coefficient are derived. For validation of our waveguide method, we used the simulated scattering parameters of a MM slab composed of split-ring-resonator unit cells by using a commercial 3D electromagnetic simulation program.

    Determination of optimum conditions of crystal violet dye adsorption on almond shells

    Göksu, Ali; Tanaydin, Mehmet Kayra; Akdemir, A.O.; Ekinci, A.; Han, I.; Oztekin, A.; Set, E.; Dadasoglu, F.; Karagoz, K.

    Almond shells are considered as agricultural waste. In this study almond shells were chosen as effective adsorbents for removing Crystal Violet (CV) from dye solutions. The experimental data was analyzed via the Langmuir, Freudlich and Tempkin isotherm models to obtain isotherm model for the system and the data shows that the Langmuir isotherm model fitted best. Also, the thermodynamics parameters such as ΔH0, ΔG0 and ΔS0 were investigated. The results of the study show that almond shells are efficient and advantageous economically for removing CV from aqueous solutions. The maximum adsorption capacity was found to be 1.1375mg/g on almond shell. Adsorption kinetic studies indicate that the adsorption data can be represented by a pseudo second order model.

    Erguven, Gokhan Onder; Yildirim, Numan; Adar, Elanur

    This present study aims to evaluating the efficiency of P. chrysosporium (P.c) to degrade the different concentrations of malathion (MLT) (50, 100 and 150 ppm) under agitated (130 rpm) submerged culture conditions via reduction of chemical oxygen demand (COD). We have previously screening the growth of fungus in sabouraud dextrose agar (SDA) medium for 6 days. We have also determined the laccase activity during degradation process for 15 days. According to our results the fungus has achieved 99.6, 98.8 and 98.7 % COD reduction at concentration of 50, 100 and 150 ppm respectively the end of the 15 days. The highest laccase activity (180 ± 5.69 U/L) was measured at concentration of 50 ppm the end of the 15 days and the lowest activity (36 ± 3.26) was determined at concentration of 150 ppm the end of the 15 days. The dried biomass of fungus was weighted at end of the 15 days and we have determined that malathion in culture medium reduced the biomass production compared the control group (SDB + P.c). Our results showed that, P. chrysosporium could be an effective bioremediation tool for treatment of malathion containing wastewater.

    Julius Caesar: Tyrannicide made unpopular

    Öǧütcü, Murat

    The late Elizabethan Period was marked by socio-economic discontent. Amid this, Shakespeare's Julius Caesar (1599) featured a prominent debate: whether or not tyrannicide could solve problems. Around 1599, Essex formulated a like-minded political revolution only to dismiss it until 1601. Yet, as providentialist and republican debates failed to provide solutions against misgovernment, the 1601 Essex rebellion also proved abortive. Essex was considered another regicide Brutus rather than a saviour. Contrary to the majority of apolitical or ahistorical critical analyses about tyranny in the play, a historicized analysis of Julius Caesar, therefore, illustrates how tyrannicide might have been perceived by Elizabethan playgoers.

    Ohmic heating assisted vacuum evaporation of pomegranate juice: Electrical conductivity changes

    Icier, Filiz; Yildiz, Hasan; Sabanci, Serdal; Cevik, Mutlu; Cokgezme, Omer Faruk

    A novel electrical heating method, named as ohmic heating, was successfully integrated to vacuum evaporation system, and pomegranate juice was concentrated until its total soluble dry matter content reached to 40% by applying three different voltage gradients (7.5, 10, and 12.5 V/cm) at 180 mm Hg absolute pressure in this system. Total evaporation times were determined as 152, 78, and 53 min at the voltage gradients of 7.5, 10, and 12.5 V/cm, respectively. The concentration time of pomegranate juice was shortened about 56% by ohmic heating relative to conventional evaporation. The electrical conductivity values were increased up to reach 25% TSDM for 7.5 V/cm and at 35% TSDM for 10 V/cm, then showed a decreasing pattern. However, it was constant (0.55 ± 0.01 S/m) during evaporation process at 12.5 V/cm. It is recommended that the ohmic heating method could be successfully integrated to vacuum evaporation process to shorten the processing time significantly. Industrial relevance Ohmic heating has been utilized as alternative method for the purpose of heating, pasteurization, cooking etc., and relatively better products can be obtained by ohmic heating. Nowadays, energy efficient systems are needed in concentrated juice production. The integration of ohmic heating to the conventional vacuum systems could serve the production high quality juice concentrates with efficient use of energy. In present study, ohmic heating assisted vacuum evaporation of pomegranate juice was conducted, successfully. This method decreased the total process time for juice concentration, which is critically important for industrial scale productions. This novel method can be implemented to the fruit juice production lines by taking into account of design characteristics of ohmic systems such as electrical conductivity changes depending on both temperature and total soluble solids concentration. The effects of main process parameter, named as voltage gradient, on electrical conductivity changes during electrical heating assisted evaporation process has been also reported in the present study.

    A heuristic algorithm for assembly line balancing with stochastic sequence-dependent setup times

    Çil, Zeynel Abidin; Mete, Süleyman; Özceylan, Eren; Diri Kenger, Zülal; Çil, Hande

    Having analyzed studies on the assembly line balancing problem considering setup times, a few papers are observed. However, researches show that setup time plays an important role in total production time. Besides, in these studies, the setup times are assumed to be deterministic. Considering setup times to be deterministic decreases proximity of problem to real life application. Because the operation and setup times may vary in real applications due to human factors, machine breakdowns, lack of equipment and environmental factors. Therefore, in this study, assembly line balancing problem is investigated considering the sequence-dependent stochastic setup times. A heuristic approach based on COMSOAL is presented for the problem and it is seen that algorithm is effective for the problem.

    Fault location determination for transmission lines with different series-compensation levels using transient frequencies

    Akmaz, Duzgun; Mamiş, Mehmet Salih; Arkan, Muslum; Tagluk, Mehmet Emin

    In this paper, based on the theory of traveling waves, the fault distances on long transmission lines with various series-compensation levels are determined using transient current and voltage frequencies. Transmission lines with series compensation are modeled using Alternative Transients Program software with frequency-dependent effects on the line included in the simulation. The transient current and voltage signals are obtained from the model. A fast Fourier transform is used for frequency-domain conversion and fault location is estimated from the frequencies of fault-generated harmonics in the transient spectrum. The algorithm is implemented in MATLAB. To investigate the effect of compensation on accuracy, the results are obtained for different series-compensation levels. The undesirable source-inductance effect is removed and estimation accuracy is further improved using a waveform-relaxation method. The method is found to be successful in determining fault location on series-compensated transmission lines. The effects of the compensation level, fault resistance, and phase angle are investigated.

    Rapid malachite green removal from aqueous solution by natural zeolite: Process optimization by response surface methodology

    Tanyol, Mehtap

    In this study, malachite green removal from aqueous solutions by natural zeolite was investigated. The interaction between zeolite and malachite green was determined by SEM/EDX and FTIR. The parameters like adsorbent dosage (0.1–1 mg/100 mL), initial malachite green concentration (40–200 mg/L) and the contact time (10–600 s) were optimized using the central composite design of response surface methodology. Maximum removal yield (99.70%) was obtained at an adsorbent dosage of 0.68 mg/100 mL, an initial malachite green concentration of 79.02 mg/L, and at 414 s contact time. The equilibrium process complied better with the Langmuir isotherm model, which exhibits a single layer adsorption, when compared with the Freundlich isotherm model. Adsorption kinetics followed the pseudo-second-order type kinetic and intra-particle diffusion played an important role onto adsorption mechanism of malachite green. The findings of this study demonstrated that zeolite which is found abundant on earth as a cheap and efficient adsorbent could be used for rapid malachite green adsorption from aqueous solutions.
