Maintenance of heterogeneity of capillary spacing is essential for adequate oxygenation in the soleus muscle of the growing rat
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2006)
Objectives: Normal muscle growth is accompanied by capillary proliferation, which usually lags behind the increase in muscle size, causing a decline in mean capillary density (CD). It is not known, however, how the capillary ...
Strain measurement under the minimal controller synthesis algorithm and an extensometer design
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE SA, 2009)
In this paper, minimal controller synthesis (MCS) algorithm is used in the case of strain measurement for the first time. The MCS control is an adaptive control method and it can be recommended as a robust controller for ...
Turkish preservice mathematics teachers' mathematical values: Positivist and constructivist values
(ACADEMIC JOURNALS, 2009)
The present study aimed to investigate preservice mathematics teachers' values toward their mathematics teaching with regard to their grade level, gender and departments. In the study, the positivist and constructivist ...
Flash pyrolysis of Silopi asphaltite in a free-fall reactor under vacuum
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2008)
Flash pyrolysis experiments on asphaltite samples were performed in a free-fall reactor under vacuum to determine the effects of pyrolysis temperature, feed rate and particle size. Maximum liquid yield of 13 wt.% was ...
Organic geochemical characteristics of the bituminous Eocene units in the Corum-Suluova Basin, central Anatolia, Turkey
(GEOLOGICAL SOC PUBL HOUSE, 2004)
In the Corum-Suluova Basin (central Anatolia) the Eocene Celtek and Armutlu formations consist of conglomerate, sandstone, siltstone, marl, mudstone, shale, limestone, clayey limestone, bituminous shale and coal. Total ...
Intersubband electron transition across a staircase potential containing quantum wells: light emission
(ACADEMIC PRESS LTD ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2005)
We present a theoretical investigation of a novel staircase-like light emitter based on the GaAs/GaxAl1-xAs material system. The emission wavelength is around 12 mum. The device operation is based on the intersubband ...
GIS based susceptibility mapping of karst depression in gypsum: A case study from Sivas basin (Turkey)
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2007)
A method is presented for mapping of collapse susceptibility using Geographical Information System (GIS). Collapses in karst terrains are very serious geological hazards and can damage engineering structures and cause ...
Photocatalytic disinfection of Giardia intestinalis and Acanthamoeba castellani cysts in water
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2008)
In this study, disinfection of water containing Giardia intestinalis and Acanthamoeba castellani cysts with TiO2 and modified catalyst silver loaded TiO2 (Ag-TiO2) was investigated. Destruction of the parasites was evaluated ...
Structure-property relation of a soft liner material used in denture applications
(JAPANESE SOC DENTAL MATERIALS DEVICES, 2007)
With a view to understanding the structure-property relation of a silicone-based soft lining denture material after polymerization, its chemical composition and viscoelastic properties were investigated. Chemical compositions ...
Al-pillared clay for cottonseed oil bleaching: An optimization study
(WILEY, 2005)
In this study, Al-pillared white bentonite (Ordu-Unye, Turkey) was used for cottonseed oil bleaching. Pillaring process parameters were optimized in terms of bleaching efficiency as the bleaching capacity of cottonseed ...
