Nature, Provenance And Relationships Of Early Miocene Palaeovalley Fills, Northern Adana Basin, Turkey: Their Significance For Sediment-Bypassing On A Carbonate Shelf, A. Sami̇ Derman, Kemal Gürbüz
Nature, Provenance And Relationships Of Early Miocene Palaeovalley Fills, Northern Adana Basin, Turkey: Their Significance For Sediment-Bypassing On A Carbonate Shelf, A. Sami̇ Derman, Kemal Gürbüz
Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences
The Gildirli Formation is the oldest Neogene rock unit in the Adana Basin and was formed prior to the regionally extensive Early Miocene marine transgression. These coarse clastic red-beds provide important evidence about the causes and early phases of filling in this large trough, because the Gildirli Formation sediments fill an irregular palaeotopography carved out of Palaeozoic and Mesozoic basement rocks. Detailed study of the Gildirli Formation reveals the existence of at least two alluvial fans supplied from different source areas. A northeastern fan, exposed around Gildirli Village, was fed by streams draining an area of ophiolitic mélange, Mesozoic and …
Strontium Isotopic And Micropalaeontological Dating Used To Help Redefine The Stratigraphy Of The Neotectonic Hatay Graben, Southern Turkey, Sarah J. Boulton, Alastair H. F. Robertson, Robert M. Ellam, Ümi̇t Şafak, Ulvi̇ Can Ünlügenç
Strontium Isotopic And Micropalaeontological Dating Used To Help Redefine The Stratigraphy Of The Neotectonic Hatay Graben, Southern Turkey, Sarah J. Boulton, Alastair H. F. Robertson, Robert M. Ellam, Ümi̇t Şafak, Ulvi̇ Can Ünlügenç
Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences
In this paper we report for the Hatay Graben, new micropalaeotology, the first strontium dating and new sedimentology. The previous lack of a modern systematic stratigraphy was problematic for the study of the Hatay region. With the new data combined with the existing literature we evaluate and redefine the lithostratigraphy following international standards. The focus of this paper is on the Neogene cover rocks that record the transition from a regional carbonate shelf environment during Palaeocene to Eocene times, through late-stage continental collision, to recent continental rift tectonics that were initiated in the Middle Miocene and continue to operate to …

Late Visean–Early Namurian Bivalves From The Zonguldak Coal Basin, Northwestern Turkey, Yavuz Okan, İzzet Hoşgör
Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences
Marine bivalves Septimyalina sublamellosa (Etheridge 1878), Septimyalina lamellosa (de Koninck 1842), Septimyalina minor (Brown 1841) and Posidonia becheri Bronn, 1828 are described from the Visean-Namurian transition of Zonguldak coal basin, Northwestern Turkey. Macroinvertebrate fossils are rare in the Lower Carboniferous of the Zonguldak coal basin and only a few shallow marine forms of Myalinidae and Posidoniidae families are present. Their palaeobiogeographic distribution delineates a seaway from Britain to the Black Sea coast during the Carboniferous.

A Condensed Mesozoic Succession North Of İzmir: A Fragment Of The Anatolide-Tauride Platform In The Bornova Flysch Zone, Aral İ. Okay, Demi̇r Altiner
Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences
The Bornova Flysch Zone consists of large blocks of Mesozoic limestone, basalt, serpentinite and radiolarian chert in a highly sheared clastic matrix of latest Cretaceous to Paleocene age. We describe a condensed Mesozoic section from a limestone block near the village of Urbut, 27 km southwest of Bigadiç, north of İzmir. The section, 81 m thick, starts with massive, thickly-bedded Upper Triassic carbonates with megalodonts and foraminifera characteristic of Late Norian-Rhaetian. These are unconformably overlain by condensed, hemipelagic Tithonian-Middle Albian limestones, 19 m thick, with gaps in the succession. The condensed sequence is, in turn, unconformably overlain by red, pink …
Late Ypresian To Middle Lutetian Orthophragminid Record From Central And Northern Turkey: Taxonomy And Remarks On Zonal Scheme, Ercan Özcan, György Less, Botond Kertesz
Late Ypresian To Middle Lutetian Orthophragminid Record From Central And Northern Turkey: Taxonomy And Remarks On Zonal Scheme, Ercan Özcan, György Less, Botond Kertesz
Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences
Orthophragmines are one of the commonest larger foraminifera in the late Paleocene-Eocene shallow-marine deposits of Turkey. Following several common lineages, such as Discocyclina archiaci, Orbitoclypeus schopeni and O. multiplicatus, a major turnover in the orthophragminid composition - both in diversity and abundance - is observed to occur around the early-late Ypresian boundary. This is manifested in the first appearance/dominance of such important lineages like Discocyclina augustae, D. fortisi, Nemkovella strophiolata, Orbitoclypeus douvillei, O. varians, O. furcatus, Asterocyclina stellata and A. alticostata simultaneously with the disappearance of O. multiplicatus and other forms. These and their successors, ranging up at least to …

Petrography, Geochemistry And Origin Of Lower Liassic Dolomites In The Aydıncık Area, Mersin, Southern Turkey, Muhsi̇n Eren, Meryem Yeşi̇lot Kaplan, Selahatti̇n Kadi̇r
Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences
In the Aydıncık area, the Lower Liassic carbonates consist predominantly of dolomites, including limestone and dolomitic limestone intervals. These carbonates were deposited in peritidal environments, and later underwent early and late stage dolomitization. Petrographically, three dolomite-types are determined: (1) very fine to fine crystalline dolomite (T1) with crystal size of 13-65 µm and a good fabric preservation, (2) coarse crystalline sucrosic dolomite (T2) with size of 65 to 270 µm and fabric destruction, and (3) dolomite cement (T3) that occurs as a clear outer rim to cloudy coarse dolomite crystals (T2) or as a pore-lining and cement-fill of fenestral pores. …

Retention And Transport Of Hexavalent Chromium In Calcareous Karst Soils, İrfan Yolcubal, Ni̇hat Hakan Akyol
Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences
Hexavalent chromium, which is a highly toxic and soluble form of the element chromium, is a common soil and groundwater contaminant found in many contaminated sites throughout the world and poses a serious risk to human health when released into environment. The objective of this study was to determine transport and retention behaviour of aqueous Cr(VI) species in a highly calcareous and alkaline top soil of a karst system that is vulnerable to contamination. Batch sorption studies and column experiments conducted at both saturated and unsaturated steady-state flow conditions were used to evaluate the sorption/desorption and the transport of Cr(VI) …

Filograna Minor Nov. Sp. (Worm Tube) From The Middle Triassic (Anisian) Reef Boulders Of The Karaburun Peninsula, Western Turkey, Baba Senowbari-Daryan, Michael Link, İsmai̇l Işintek
Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences
A colonial serpulid worm tube, Filograna minor nov. sp., from the Anisian reef boulders of the Karaburun Peninsula, Western Turkey is described. The Filograna-bearing boulders occur together with Anisian reef boulders within the Upper Anisian siliciclastic deposits of the Gerence Formation. Filograna minor differs from the Norian species Filograna serialis, described by Senowbari-Daryan and Link from the Taurus Mountains, by the smaller dimensions of the tubes.

A N-S-Trending Active Extensional Structure, The Şuhut (Afyon) Graben: Commencement Age Of The Extensional Neotectonic Period In The Isparta Angle, Sw Turkey, Ali̇ Koçyi̇ği̇t, Şule Deveci̇
Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences
The Şuhut graben is an 8-11-km-wide, 24-km-long, N-S-trending, active extensional structure located on the southern shoulder of the Akşehir-Afyon graben, near the apex of the outer Isparta Angle. The Şuhut graben developed on a pre-Upper Pliocene rock assemblage comprising pre-Jurassic metamorphic rocks, Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous platform carbonates, the Lower Miocene-Middle Pliocene Afyon stratovolcanic complex and a fluvio-lacustrine volcano-sedimentary sequence. The eastern margin of the Şuhut graben is dominated by the Afyon volcanics and their well-bedded fluvio-lacustrine sedimentary cover, which is folded into a series of NNE-trending anticlines and synclines. This volcano-sedimentary sequence was deformed during a phase of WNW-ESE contraction, and …

Quaternary Activity Of The Cihanbeyli And Yeniceoba Fault Zones: İnönü-Eskişehir Fault System, Central Anatolia, Erman Özsayin, Kadi̇r Di̇ri̇k
Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences
The İnönü-Eskişehir fault system (İEFS) is one of the most important fault systems in Central Anatolia and consists of a series of NW-SE- to WNW-ESE-trending fault zones extending from Uludağ (Bursa) in the northwest to Sultanhanı in the southeast. Between İnönü and Sivrihisar, the Eskişehir fault zone of the İEFS trends WNW, but east of Sivrihisar the İEFS changes its direction to NW-SE and splays out into four fault zones, named the Ilıca, Yeniceoba, Cihanbeyli and Sultanhanı fault zones and extends to south of Tuzgölü in the east. The NW-SE-trending Yeniceoba fault zone (YFZ), exposed between Günyüzü in the west …
Tectonic Evolution Of The Kiraz Basin, Küçük Menderes Graben: Evidence For Compression/Uplift-Related Basin Formation Overprinted By Extensional Tectonics In West Anatolia, Tahi̇r Emre, Hasan Sözbi̇li̇r
Tectonic Evolution Of The Kiraz Basin, Küçük Menderes Graben: Evidence For Compression/Uplift-Related Basin Formation Overprinted By Extensional Tectonics In West Anatolia, Tahi̇r Emre, Hasan Sözbi̇li̇r
Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences
The Kiraz Basin which is located at the eastern end of the Küçük Menderes Graben was previously considered to be an extensional basin. However, the data presented here allow us to infer that the tectonic evolution of the Kiraz Basin could be explained by an alternate model which suggests compression/uplift-related basin formation at the early stage of basin evolution followed, later, by block faulting in an extensional neotectonic regime. The successive compressional and extensional strain is accommodated by a predominantly NE-trending strike-slip fault system. The new model is based on the detailed mapping, field-cross sections and kinematic analyses of the …
Distribution Of Circles On A Circle And Correlation Between Vortex Rings Of Superfluids, Mehmet Onur Fen, Şaki̇r Erkoç
Distribution Of Circles On A Circle And Correlation Between Vortex Rings Of Superfluids, Mehmet Onur Fen, Şaki̇r Erkoç
Turkish Journal of Physics
Superfluids are characterized by absence of viscosity. When superfluids are rotated, differently from normal fluids, they form more than one vortex in the containers where they are placed. The number of vortices change as the rotation velocity changes, but this change is not linear. M.W. Zwierlein et al. observed the vortices in experiments, observing up to a number of 80. Experiments also showed that the vortex distributions cannot include large spaces. By using experimental data, we noticed that when we think of vortices as vortex rings, their centers are at the same geometric location and these geometric locations are concentric …

Turkish Journal of Physics
Hetrojunction solar cells n-(ZnS)_{x}(CdTe)_{1-x}/p-Si, with Al, In and Au as front grid contacts, have been fabricated by thermal evaporation technique. Their photovoltaic properties and the forward I-V characteristics of the annealed cells at 400 °C were studied. The efficiency, ideality factor and other parameters have been obtained. The results showed that the efficiency, as well as the ideality factor, depends on the ZnS content in the cell and the efficiency is high for Au front contact compared with that of Al and In.

Opto-Electrical Properties Of Copper-Indium-Selenium Thin Films, S. F. Shaukat, S. A. Khan, Robina Farooq
Turkish Journal of Physics
Copper-Indium-Selenium (CIS) thin films have been characterised using various experimental techniques. These compounds are extensively used in solar cell technology as absorber layers due to their exciting characteristics. Optical transmission measurements on different compositions of CIS films are observed and the absorption coefficient is determined. The Van der Pauw technique is used to divulge the electrical characteristics of these films. The electrical conductivity is found relatively high for the films annealed in vacuum but decreases for films synthesised optimally. It is observed that p-type films have higher conductivity than n-type films. The grain size, composition, structure and the spacing of …

New Method For Investigation Of Dynamic Parameters Of Thermoelectric Modules, Raşi̇t Ahiska
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Precise calculation of parameters of thermoelectric modules and thermoelectric devices under operating conditions by present methods is very difficult. In this study, a new method is developed to calculate all parameters of thermoelectric modules. This new method makes it possible to determine the dynamic parameters of a real thermoelectric module operated under different working regimes. Measurement of thermoemf created by an operating module is the basis of this new method. An unloaded thermoelectric module, whose dynamic output parameters are necessary in the design of a medical helmet for the cooling of brain, has been investigated using this new method. A …
Data Mining And Costas Arrays, Konstantinos Drakakis
Data Mining And Costas Arrays, Konstantinos Drakakis
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Costas arrays are used in RADAR (and SONAR) engineering to represent frequency-hopping patterns that optimize the RADAR's performance. In this work, using all available Costas arrays up to and including order 26, as well as data mining techniques, we investigate how the Costas property and the balance of signs in the difference triangle of a permutation are related. Our conclusion is that there is sufficient evidence to believe that the mechanism responsible for the formation of Costas arrays changes from low to high orders.
Offline Signature Verification Using Graph Matching, Ibrahim S. I. Abuhaiba
Offline Signature Verification Using Graph Matching, Ibrahim S. I. Abuhaiba
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, we present a simple and effective signature verification method that depends only on the raw binary pixel intensities and avoids using complex sets of features. The method looks at the signature verification problem as a graph matching problem. The method is tested using genuine and forgery signatures produced by five subjects. An equal error rate of 26.7% and 5.6% was achieved for skilled and random forgeries, respectively. A positive property of our algorithm is that the false acceptance rate of random forgeries vanishes at the point of equal false rejection and skilled forgery false acceptance rates. Keeping …

A Review Of Studies In Swarm Robotics, Levent Bayindir, Erol Şahi̇n
A Review Of Studies In Swarm Robotics, Levent Bayindir, Erol Şahi̇n
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Swarm robotics is a new approach to the coordination of large numbers of relatively simple robots. The approach takes its inspiration from the system-level functioning of social insects which demonstrate three desired characteristics for multi-robot systems: robustness, flexibility and scalability. In this paper we have presented a preliminary taxonomy for swarm robotics and classified existing studies into this taxonomy after investigating the existing surveys related to swarm robotics literature. Our parent taxonomic units are modeling, behavior design, communication, analytical studies and problems. We are classifying existing studies into these main axes. Since existing reviews do not have enough number of …

Aggregation, Foraging, And Formation Control Of Swarms With Non-Holonomic Agents Using Potential Functions And Sliding Mode Techniques, Veysel Gazi̇, Bariş Fi̇dan, Y. Si̇nan Hanay, İlter Köksal
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this article we consider the aggregation, foraging, and formation control of swarms whose agents are moving in 2-dimensions with non-holonomic unicycle agent dynamics. We approach these problems using artificial potentials and sliding mode control. The main contribution is extension of the recent results (mainly for aggregation) in the literature based on a similar approach for simple integrator agent dynamics models to a significantly more realistic and more difficult setting with non-holonomic unicycle agent dynamics models. In particular, we design continuous-time control schemes via a constructive analysis based on artificial potential functions and sliding mode control techniques. The effectiveness of …
Using Angle Of Arrival (Bearing) Information For Localization In Robot Networks, Tolga Eren
Using Angle Of Arrival (Bearing) Information For Localization In Robot Networks, Tolga Eren
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, we consider using angle of arrival information (bearing) for localization in robot networks. The essential property we require in this paper is that a node can infer heading information from its neighbors. We address the uniqueness of network localization solutions by the theory of globally rigid graphs. We show that while the parallel rigidity problem for formations with bearings is isomorphic to the distance case, the global rigidity of the formation is simpler (in fact identical to the simpler rigidity case) for a network with bearings, compared to formations with distances. We provide the conditions of localization …

Aggregation In Swarm Robotic Systems: Evolution And Probabilistic Control, Onur Soysal, Erki̇n Bahçeci̇, Erol Şahi̇n
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this study we investigate two approachees for aggregation behavior in swarm robotics systems: Evolutionary methods and probabilistic control. In first part, aggregation behavior is chosen as a case, where performance and scalability of aggregation behaviors of perceptron controllers that are evolved for a simulated swarm robotic system are systematically studied with different parameter settings. Using a cluster of computers to run simulations in parallel, four experiments are conducted varying some of the parameters. Rules of thumb are derived, which can be of guidance to the use of evolutionary methods to generate other swarm robotic behaviors as well. In the …
Swarm Robot Systems Based On The Evolution Of Personality Traits, Sidney Nascimento Givigi Jr.
Swarm Robot Systems Based On The Evolution Of Personality Traits, Sidney Nascimento Givigi Jr.
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Game theory may be very useful in modeling and analyzing swarms of robots. Using game theory in conjunction with traits of personalities, we achieve intelligent swarm robots. Traits of personality are characteristics of each robot that define the robots' behaviours. The environment is represented as a game and due to the evolution of the traits through a learning process, we show how the robots may react intelligently to changes in the environment. A proof of convergence for the proposed algorithm is offered. The process of selection of traits is discussed and the potential of the modeling is demonstrated in several …

Design And Implementation Of An Ad-Hoc Routing Protocol For Mobile Robots, Carlos Agüero, Jose M. Canas, Miguel OrtuNo, Vicente Matellan
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Mobile robots need to be able to communicate among themselves, as well as with hosts participating in the task that they are all involved in. Wired networks are obviously not suitable for mobile robots. Current wireless networks based on a fixed infrastructure (GSM, WiFi, etc.) to route packets may not be suitable because this infrastructure does not cover every place and the requirements of its resources. The best choice for mobile robots are Ad-Hoc networks, which are wireless and do not need a fixed infrastructure. This article describes PERA, a complete communications library including link, net, and transport layers for …
