ABSTRACTIn this paper the characterization of certain families of the Pk   sets for k=3(4) are given, and it is shown that some of them can not be extended.  Key Words: Diophantine Equation, Congruence, Legendre Symbol

ABSTRACTIn this study, free vibration of shear deformable beams was investigated. Discrete singular convolution (DSC) method is used for free vibration problem of numerical solution of shear deformable beams. Numerical results are presented and compared with that available in the…

This paper presents a finite element analysis on 4 types of precast connections which are pinned, rigid, semi rigid and a new proposed connection. The stiffness of the new connection is obtained from the slope of the total load versus…

In this study a finite element analysis of elastoplastic contact-impact has been carried out. Newmark, Wilson-q, Central Difference and Houbolt Methods have been used as direct integration methods. Impact analysis includes elastoplastic and large deformation based upon updated Lagrangian including…

This paper is concerned with a novel wavelet-based damage detection method for beam-like structures. The method employs the orthogonal wavelet transform (OWT), and is based on extracting an approximation function from the damaged mode of structure. This approximation function is…

ABSTRACTThe purpose of this study, to give information about zoonosis in freshwater and marine fishes. Three digeneans (Heterophyes heterophyes, Opisthorchis felinus, Centrocestus formosanus), one nematod (Anisakis simplex) and one cestod species (Diphyllobothrium sp.) which have zoonosis character were recorded from…

ABSTRACTNitrites and nitrates possess a unique position in human toxicology. They are both ubiquitous in the environment and can be formed from nitrogenous compounds. Water, vegetables and meat are important sources of nitrite exposure. Nitrites have several detrimental effects on…

ABSTRACTIn this study the effect of a new synthetic Schiff base namely bis -(2-hydroxy-3-methoxy)-1,6-diaminohexane salicylaldimine on the corrosion and dezincification of a 70/30 brass in 1M HCl has been studied using weight loss , electrochemical (polarization & impedance) and solution…

Some mechanical properties (compression, static bending, impact bending, shear strength and Janka hardness) of cypress wood (Cupressus sempervirenss L.) were evaluated in accordance with Turkish Standards and compared with other cypress’ properties. Samples were taken from randomly collected logs naturally…

Gated communities have become a major subject in the related literature with their development as a new way of life with an increasing element of isolation on space and evaluated through demand-and supply-side discussions originating from the reasons of their…
