Geochemistry Of The Middle Miocene Collision-Related Yamadaği ( Eastern Anatolia) Calc-Alkaline Volcanics, Turkey, Taner Eki̇ci̇, Musa Alpaslan, Osman Parlak, Ali̇ Uçurum
Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences
Major, trace element and K-Ar age determinations are reported for a suite from the Yamadağı volcanics in the Eastern Anatolia. The exposed rocks mainly consist of medium-potassium calc-alkaline basaltic andesites, andesites and dacites. Petrographical data exhibit disequilibrium mineral textures, such as resorption of the ferromagnesian phases, clinopyroxene-mantled orthopyroxene, and sieve-textured plagioclases. The Yamadağı volcanics have a calk-alkaline character, and trace element characteristics exhibit that the volcanics resemble subduction zone volcanics and/or volcanics assimilated by continental crust. K/Ar age determinations show that the Yamadağı volcanics were formed during the 12 ± 0.5 - 15 ± 0.5 Ma time interval. Geochemical characteristics …

The Effects Of Oral Administration Of An Aqueous Extract Of Ficus Bengalensis Stem Bark On Some Hematological And Biochemical Parameters In Rats With Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetes, Mahalingam Gayathri, Krishnan Kannabiran
Turkish Journal of Biology
The effects of sub-chronic administration of an aqueous extract of Ficus bengalensis stem bark on hematological and biochemical parameters in rats with streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes were evaluated. The possible protective effect of the F. bengalensis (500 mg/kg of body weight per day) extract on STZ-induced changes was evaluated over 12 weeks. The parameters evaluated were plasma proteins, including total protein albumin and globulin, non-protein nitrogenous substances, including urea, uric acid, and creatinine, and hematological indices, including total hemoglobin content, erythrocytes, leucocytes, and platelets counts. The aqueous extract had a significant (P < 0.05) protective effect against STZ-induced changes in terms of the markers of protein metabolism and hematological indices. Furthermore, increases in levels of non-protein nitrogenous substances were normalized in response to the administration of the extract. Thus, the aqueous extract of F. bengalensis had a significant protective effect on STZ-induced changes to biochemical and hematological parameters in the diabetic rats.

Pca Based Protection Algorithm For Transformer Internal Faults, Erdal Kiliç, Okan Özgönenel, Ömer Usta, Dave Thomas
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper a new protection scheme is introduced to detect and identify transformer winding faults. The new approach is based on artificial neural networks (ANNs) using radial basis functions (RBFs) and the principal component analysis (PCA). The nonlinear system's input and output data is manipulated without considering any model of the system. This approach is used to detect and identify internal short circuit faults of a three phase custom built transformer. The suggested technique is also able to distinguish between the fault and magnetizing inrush current. The test studies carried out shows that the proposed method leads to satisfactory …

Weak Penetration And Radiation Through Apertures In Conducting Bodies Of Revolution, Korkut Yeği̇n
Weak Penetration And Radiation Through Apertures In Conducting Bodies Of Revolution, Korkut Yeği̇n
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The simplest way to solve for penetration through small apertures in conducting surfaces is to treat the body as a scatterer and determine the interior field as the sum of the incident field and the scattered field contributed by the current induced on the surface of the body. However, it is well known that, if the aperture is very small or if the penetrated field is very weak this method yields very inaccurate results, which, in turn, prohibits proper design of electronic systems, especially for electromagnetic compatibility and interference. Previously, alternative integral equations formulations were proposed to remedy this problem …
