This research focuses on determining the effects of a store window type (flat or arcade) on consumers’ perception of store windows (promotion, merchandise and fashion) and shopping attitudes (intentions for store entry and purchase) in the context of retail clothing…

Methyltriphenylphosphonium Halochromates (MTriPPXC) were prepared and used for oxidation of alcohols under mild conditions. These new compounds are more efficient and have certain advantages over similar oxidizing agents in terms of the amount of oxidants, short reaction times, and high…

Dimethylether (DME) which is a very attractive synthetic transportation fuel alternate is synthesized by the dehydration reaction of methanol over nafion as the catalyst. The objective is to test the activity of this catalyst in methanol dehydration reaction. Experiments carried…

There have been implementations of post-disaster housing even in historical ages and mentioned in studies concerning a specific period in time in which the disaster occurred in Turkey. With a brief overview of such history of post-disaster housing, the studies…

In all machining processes, tool wear is a natural phenomenon and it leads to tool failure. The growing demands for high productivity of machining need use of high cutting velocity and feed rate. Such machining inherently produces high cutting temperature,…

Attachment to workplaces is a new concept for which appropriate assessment approaches are required. The present study proposes a multi-dimensional model for the issue. The model is based on following variables: (i) technical, (ii) functional, (iii) spatial impact, (iv) emotional…

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of curved areas located in the main rooms of apartment housing on functional and perception-behavioral quality. For this purpose, some apartment houses in Cukurambar and Cigdem districts in Ankara were…

Architectural works cannot be judged independent from their design principles. Although affirmations of architects explicate these principles, the actual success of a building highly depends on its power of manifesting these principles through presence. In this context, the study proposes…

In this article, we introduce a new way of generating copulas with the directional dependence property based on the logistic regression. The studied class of copulas leads to nonsymmetrical copula structures, therefore allowing for the development of various directional dependence…

In this study, chlorpyrifos, catechin, quercetin and catechin- or quercetin+chlorpyrifos were given to Wistar rats for 4 weeks. Chlorpyrifos increased the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT); decreased glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and glutathione–S-transferase (GST) activities in…
