This dissertation is the first comprehensive and interdisciplinary study of Ottoman economic thought within the context of modernization during the reign of Abdülhamid II (1876-1909). Drawing on a broad array of primary sources ranging from textbooks and manuals of economics…

This thesis describes the development and experimental verification (via liquid state nuclear magnetic resonance techniques) of new methods for controlling open quantum systems. First, methods that improve coherent control through the use of both strong control fields and detailed knowledge…

A survey of lignicolous freshwater ascomycetes was carried out in Las Ilusiones Lagoon located in the metropolitan area of Villahermosa City State of Tabasco, Mexico. Aniptodera inflatiascigera, Ascosacculus aquaticus and A. heteroguttulatus are recorded for the first time from Mexico.…

Registered nurses undertaking programmes of study to become non-medical prescribers appear to have
limited biological science knowledge. A case study was undertaken to determine whether the nurses entering
Prescriber programmes considered studies in bioscience in their pre-registration nursing courses had…

Background: The specific recognition of genomic cis-regulatory elements by transcription factors (TFs) plays an essential role in the regulation of coordinated gene expression. Studying the mechanisms determining binding specificity in protein-DNA interactions is thus an important goal. Most current approaches…

Many studies have focused on the concept of humanization of birth in normal
pregnancy cases or at low obstetric risk, but no studies, at our knowledge, have so far
specifically focused on the humanization of birth in both high-risk, and…

The construction of expert problem-solving systems requires the development of techniques for using modular representations of knowledge without encountering combinatorial explosions in the solution effort. This report describes an approach to dealing with this problem based on making some knowledge…

In this paper an adaptive fuzzy decentralized
control algorithm for trajectory tracking of robot manipulators is developed. The proposed decentralized control algorithm allows the overall closed-loop system to be stabilized while making the tracking error to be uniformly ultimately bounded…

Using the underlying idea of the current-mode control, a new dynamical, sliding-mode control for the boost dc-dc converter is proposed. Such controller is easy to design, robust under load and input voltage variations, exhibits fast response, does not depend on…
