Uplift Of Anatolia, Aral I. Okay, Massimiliano Zattin, Ercan Özcan, Gürsel Sunal
Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences
The Cenozoic history of the Anatolian Plateau is investigated using the distribution of the last Cenozoic marine strata, the ages of Neogene continental sediments and magmatic rocks, and thermochronology. In central and northern Anatolia, the youngest marine sediments are of Middle Eocene age and show that the region has been above the sea level since ca. 41 Ma. The preservation of marine Eocene sequences over large regions and widespread distribution of Neogene continental sediments point to minor erosion or subsidence, except in the Miocene core complexes, and indicate average surface uplift or subsidence rates of less than 0.05 km/Myr since …

Review Of Late Cretaceous Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide Mineralization In The Easternpontides, Ne Turkey, Mustafa Kemal Revan
Review Of Late Cretaceous Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide Mineralization In The Easternpontides, Ne Turkey, Mustafa Kemal Revan
Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences
The production of Cu-Zn from volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) deposits in the eastern Pontides began in the early 1900s, with the exploitation of high-grade ores scattered across the district. The district still possesses economically important blind VMS and associated sulfide deposits. Careful descriptive documentation of the typical features of these VMS ores illustrated the geological characteristics that are important in identifying ore localities and can be used to define exploration targets. The eastern Pontide VMS deposits are examples of volcanic-hosted massive sulfide deposits that exhibit many of the characteristics typical of bimodal-felsic-type VMS mineralization. Nearly all known VMS deposits in …

Geochemistry And Petrography Of Beach Sands Along The Western Coast Of Ghana:Implications For Provenance And Tectonic Settings, Mahamuda Abu, Emmanuel Daanoba Sunkari
Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences
The paleoweathering, provenance, and tectonic setting of sediments of the western coast of Ghana were unraveled using the geochemistry of 29 beach sands, which are characterized by coarse-, medium-, and fine-grained sizes. The coarse-grained beach sands contain higher SiO2 content (2.9-96 wt.%) than the medium-grained (4.9-94 wt.%) and fine-grained (16.1-90.7 wt.%) sands, implying that the increase in grain size is related to the increase in SiO2 content. Al2O3 and CaO concentrations are higher in the fine- and medium-grained sands than the coarse-grained sands. The beach sands are compositionally immature based on the index of compositional variable values (1.17-141) and Th/Sc …

Simulation And Analysis Of Wind Turbine Radar Echo Based On 3-D Scattering Point Model, Jiangong Zhang, Bin Hao, Bo Tang, Li Huang, Jiawei Yang
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Wind turbine (WT) arrays in wind farms can cause serious interference on nearby radar stations. This interference could be filtered out if wind turbine radar echo (WTRE) can be obtained accurately. Considering the singleness of in-field experiments, numerical simulation became the majority among such works, but few of them reached necessary accuracy. Therefore, we propose a solution method of WTRE based on three-dimensional (3-D) scattering point model. Firstly, we use the nonuniform rational B-spline to build the 3-D model of WT. Secondly, based on the method of moments (MoM), the Rao-Wilton-Gisson (RWG) basis function is adopted to discretize the integral …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Inductors play a crucial role in the design of radio frequency integrated circuits (RFICs) and they typically consume a considerably large area and have a low-quality factor at high frequencies. The employment of fractal structure in on-chip inductors helps in improving the quality factor and also reduces the overall area besides improving the inductance value. In this paper, an orthogonal series stacked differential fractal inductor is proposed and the same is used to design a low noise amplifier (LNA) for 5G band (27--30 GHz) applications. The proposed inductor is fabricated on a multilayer printed circuit board and the measurement results …

Integrated Topic Modeling And Sentiment Analysis: A Review Rating Prediction Approach For Recommender Systems, Anbazhagan Mahadevan, Michael Arock
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Recommender systems (RSs) are running behind E-commerce websites to recommend items that are likely to be bought by users. Most of the existing RSs are relying on mere star ratings while making recommendations. However, ratings alone cannot help RSs make accurate recommendations, as they cannot properly capture sentiments expressed towards various aspects of the items. The other rich and expressive source of information available that can help make accurate recommendations is user reviews. Because of their voluminous nature, reviews lead to the information overloading problem. Hence, drawing out the user opinion from reviews is a decisive job. Therefore, this paper …
Retinal Vessel Segmentation Using Modified Symmetrical Local Threshold, Umar Özgünalp
Retinal Vessel Segmentation Using Modified Symmetrical Local Threshold, Umar Özgünalp
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Retinal vessel segmentation is important for the identification of many diseases including glaucoma, hypertensive retinopathy, diabetes, and hypertension. Moreover, retinal vessel diameter is associated with cardiovascular mortality. Accurate detection of blood vessels improves the detection of exudates in color fundus images, as well as detection of the retinal nerve, optic disc, or fovea. A retinal vessel is a darker stripe on a lighter background. Thus, the objective is very similar to the lane detection task for intelligent vehicles. A lane on a road is a light stripe on a darker background (i.e. asphalt). For lane detection, the symmetrical local threshold …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Cluster analysis is widely used in data analysis. Statistical data analysis is generally performed on the linear data. If the data has directional structure, classical statistical methods cannot be applied directly to it. This study aims to improve a new directional clustering algorithm which is based on trigonometric approximation. The trigonometric approximation is used for both descriptive statistics and clustering of directional data. In this paper, the fuzzy clustering algorithms (FCD and FCM4DD) improved for directional data and the proposed method are carried out on some numerical and real data examples, and the simulation results are presented. Consequently, these results …
