DFT and Ab Initio Computational Study on the Reactivity Sites of the GABA and its Agonists, Such as CACA, TACA, DABA, and Muscimol: In the Gas Phase and Dielectric Media
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2011)
The reactive behavior of GABA and its agonist molecules have been investigated using B3LYP hybrid density functional method at the 6-311++G** basis set level, in the gas phase and dielectric media. The calculations have ...
Multiple regression, ANN (RBF, MLP) and ANFIS models for prediction of swell potential of clayey soils
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2011)
In the recent years, new techniques such as; artificial neural networks and fuzzy inference systems were employed for developing of the predictive models to estimate the needed parameters. Soft computing techniques are now ...

Diet composition of chub, Squalius cephalus (Teleostei: Cyprinidae), in Lake Todurge, Sivas, Turkey
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2011)
Digestive tract contents of 241 specimens captured between March 1998 and November 1999 were analysed using both qualitative and quantitative methods to determine diet composition and feeding habits of Squalius cephalus ...
Combined Effect of Factor V Leiden, MTHFR, and Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (Insertion/Deletion) Gene Mutations in Hypertensive Adult Individuals: A Population-Based Study from Sivas and Canakkale, Turkey
(MARY ANN LIEBERT INC, 2011)
Background: Hypertension is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in the world, which is influenced by environmental and genetic factors. The methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) and angiotensin-converting ...
On the Use of Conventional and Soft Computing Models for Prediction of Gross Calorific Value (GCV) of Coal
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2011)
Gross calorific value (GCV) is an important characteristic of coal and organic shale; the determination of GCV, however, is difficult, time-consuming, and expensive and is also a destructive analysis. In this article, the ...

Evaluation of the length and angulation of the styloid process in the patient with pre-diagnosis of Eagle syndrome
(VIA MEDICA, 2011)
Clinical symptoms caused by the elongated styloid process (SP) or calcified stylohyoid ligament were first described by W. Eagle and they are now known as Eagle syndrome (ES). Normal length of SP was stated by Eagle as 2.5 ...
