Effect of Intraluminal Thrombus Burden on the Risk of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Rupture
No full textAbdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a critical health disorder, where the abdominal aorta dilates more than 50% of its normal diameter. Enlargement in abdominal aorta alters the hemodynamics and flow-induced forces on the AAA wall. Depending on the flow conditions, the hemodynamic forces on the wall may result in excessive mechanical stresses that lead to AAA rupture. The risk of rupture can be predicted using advanced computational techniques such as computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and fluid-structure interaction (FSI). For a reliable rupture risk assessment, formation of intraluminal thrombus (ILT) and uncertainty in arterial material properties should be taken into account, mainly due to the patient-specific differences and unknowns in AAAs. In this study, AAA models are computationally investigated by performing CFD simulations combined with FSI analysis. Various levels of ILT burdens are artificially generated in a realistic AAA geometry, and the peak effective stresses are evaluated to elucidate the effect of material models and ILT formation. The results indicate that increasing the ILT burden leads to lowered effective stresses on the AAA wall. The material properties of the artery and ILT are also effective on the stresses; however, these effects are limited compared to the effect of ILT volume in the AAA sac.TUBITAK (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkiye) 3501-Career Development Program [221M001]This research was funded by TUBITAK (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkiye) 3501-Career Development Program (Project number: 221M001)
From Projective Methods To Real-Time Digital Construction Of Architectural Space In First-Year Architectural Education
No full textLIVENARCH VIII-2023 Livable Environments and Architecture 8th International Congress Re-De Generation(s) in Architecture 27-29 September 2023/KTU Trabzon-TurkeyThis research delves into an exploration of the boundaries and prospects inherent to traditional orthographic projection as a medium for the representation, comprehension, and exploration of space, particularly in light of approaches like collaborative spatial production within virtual reality environments. The core objective of this study is to foster a deeper understanding of projective techniques among students engaged in the creation and immersion of architectural spaces in virtual reality. Additionally, it endeavors to illuminate the potential benefits of spatial learning through the lens of embodied cognition. To this end, the study embarks on a multifaceted trajectory. It initiates with a historical overview of orthographic drawing methodologies and seeks to unravel the enduring rationale behind the continued application of a method born in the 18th century. Subsequently, the study shifts its focus towards the significance of embodied cognition in the context of spatial comprehension. In light of the observed limitations of projective methods in comprehending, representing, and exploring space within the prevailing educational landscape, there arises an imperative to contemplate the potential enrichment engendered by alternative working environments. This study presumes the utilization of the virtual reality (VR) environment as a viable solution. By immersing students within this digital space, the research endeavors to ascertain whether engaging in design activities grounded in embodied cognition can subsequently enhance students' proficiency in the domain of orthographic drawing. Finally, the research presents and interprets the outcomes derived from a series of experiments conducted among undergraduate and graduate students, anchoring its findings within a robust empirical framework
Search for Dark Matter Produced in Association With a Higgs Boson Decaying To Tau Leptons at √s=13 Tev With the Atlas Detector
No full textA search for dark matter produced in association with a Higgs boson in final states with two hadronically decaying tau-leptons and missing transverse momentum is presented. The analysis uses 139 fb(-1) of proton-proton collision data at root s = 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider between 2015 and 2018. No evidence of physics beyond the Standard Model is found. The results are interpreted in terms of a 2HDM+a model featuring two scalar Higgs doublets and a pseudoscalar singlet field. Exclusion limits on the parameters of the model in selected benchmark scenarios are derived at 95% confidence level. Model-independent limits are also set on the visible cross-section for processes beyond the Standard Model producing missing transverse momentum in association with a Higgs boson decaying into tau-leptons.ANPCyT, Argentina; YerPhI, Armenia; ARC, Australia; BMWFW, Austria; FWF, Austria; ANAS, Azerbaijan; CNPq, Brazil; FAPESP, Brazil; NSERC, Canada; CFI, Canada; NSFC, China; MEYS CR, Czech Republic; DNRF, Denmark; DNSRC, Denmark; IN2P3-CNRS, France; CEA-DRF/IRFU, France; BMBF, Germany; MPG, Germany; Hong Kong SAR, China; ISF, Israel; INFN, Italy; MEXT, Japan; JSPS, Japan; CNRST, Morocco; RCN, Norway; MEiN, Poland; FCT, Portugal; MNE/IFA, Romania; MESTD, Serbia; MSSR, Slovakia; ARRS, Slovenia; MIZS, Slovenia; MICINN, Spain; Wallenberg Foundation, Sweden; SERI, Switzerland; MOST, Taiwan; DOE, United States of America; NSF, United States of America; BCKDF, Canada; CANARIE, Canada; Compute Canada, Canada; Czech Republic [PRIMUS 21/SCI/017, UNCE SCI/013]; COST, European Union; ERC, European Union; ERDF, European Union; Horizon 2020, European Union; Marie Skodowska-Curie Actions, European Union; Investissements d'Avenir Labex, France; Investissements d'Avenir Idex , France; ANR, France; DFG , Germany; AvH Foundation, Germany; Herakleitos programme - EU-ESF, Greece; Thales programme - EU-ESF, Greece; Aristeia programme - EU-ESF, Greece; Greek NSRF, Greece; BSF-NSF, Israel; MINERVA, Israel; Norwegian Financial Mechanism 2014-2021, Norway; NCN, Poland; NAWA, Poland; La Caixa Banking Foundation, Spain; CERCA Programme Generalitat de Catalunya, Spain; PROMETEO Programme Generalitat Valenciana, Spain; GenT Programme Generalitat Valenciana, Spain; Goran Gustafssons Stiftelse, Sweden; Royal Society, United Kingdom; Leverhulme Trust, United Kingdom; STFC, United Kingdom; TENMAK, Turkiye; Canton of Geneva, Switzerland; Canton of Bern, Switzerland; SNSF, Switzerland; SRC, Sweden; DSI/NRF, South Africa; NWO, Netherlands; Benoziyo Center, Israel; RGC, China; GSRI, Greece; HGF, Germany; SRNSFG, Georgia; Minciencias, Colombia; MOST, China; CAS, China; ANID, Chile; CERN; NRC, CanadaWe thank CERN for the very successful operation of the LHC, as well as the support staff from our institutions without whom ATLAS could not be operated efficiently.; We acknowledge the support of ANPCyT, Argentina; YerPhI, Armenia; ARC, Australia; BMWFW and FWF, Austria; ANAS, Azerbaijan; CNPq and FAPESP, Brazil; NSERC, NRC and CFI, Canada; CERN; ANID, Chile; CAS, MOST and NSFC, China; Minciencias, Colombia; MEYS CR, Czech Republic; DNRF and DNSRC, Denmark; IN2P3-CNRS and CEA-DRF/IRFU, France; SRNSFG, Georgia; BMBF, HGF and MPG, Germany; GSRI, Greece; RGC and Hong Kong SAR, China; ISF and Benoziyo Center, Israel; INFN, Italy; MEXT and JSPS, Japan; CNRST, Morocco; NWO, Netherlands; RCN, Norway; MEiN, Poland; FCT, Portugal; MNE/IFA, Romania; MESTD, Serbia; MSSR, Slovakia; ARRS and MIZS, Slovenia; DSI/NRF, South Africa; MICINN, Spain; SRC and Wallenberg Foundation, Sweden; SERI, SNSF and Cantons of Bern and Geneva, Switzerland; MOST, Taiwan; TENMAK, Turkiye; STFC, United Kingdom; DOE and NSF, United States of America.

Factors Affecting Unbranded Housing Design and Production
No full textNeed-based structures such as housing constitute a large part of the building density in the urban area. Residential buildings determine the aesthetics and morphology of a city due to their high density. It is possible to observe resemblance among residential buildings in Turkey. The reasons of similitude could be understood by analysing the housing procurement process. In this study, the factors affecting the unbranded housing design and production process are examined in legal, economic, cultural, technological, and sectorial context in order to understand the constraints that create the tendency towards uniformity among unbranded residential buildings.Konut gibi ihtiyaca dayalı yapılar, kentteki yapı yoğunluğunun büyük bir kısmını oluşturur.

Measurement of the Total Cross Section and ? -Parameter From Elastic Scattering in Pp Collisions at ?s=13 Tev With the Atlas Detector
No full textIn a special run of the LHC with ??= 2.5 km, proton–proton elastic-scattering events were recorded at s=13 TeV with an integrated luminosity of 340?b-1 using the ALFA subdetector of ATLAS in 2016. The elastic cross section was measured differentially in the Mandelstam t variable in the range from - t= 2.5 · 10 - 4 GeV 2 to - t= 0.46 GeV 2 using 6.9 million elastic-scattering candidates. This paper presents measurements of the total cross section ?tot , parameters of the nuclear slope, and the ? -parameter defined as the ratio of the real part to the imaginary part of the elastic-scattering amplitude in the limit t? 0 . These parameters are determined from a fit to the differential elastic cross section using the optical theorem and different parameterizations of the t-dependence. The results for ?tot and ? are ?tot(pp?X)=104.7±1.1mb,?=0.098±0.011. The uncertainty in ?tot is dominated by the luminosity measurement, and in ? by imperfect knowledge of the detector alignment and by modelling of the nuclear amplitude. © 2023, The Author(s).IN2P3-CNRS; SCI/013; National Science Foundation, NSF; U.S. Department of Energy, USDOE; Alexander von Humboldt-Stiftung, AvH; CRC Health Group, CRC: 21/SCI/017; Canarie; H2020 Marie Sk?odowska-Curie Actions, MSCA; Multiple Sclerosis Scientific Research Foundation, MSSRF; CERN; Compute Canada; Göran Gustafssons Stiftelser; Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada, NSERC; National Research Council Canada, NRC; Canada Foundation for Innovation, CFI; Science and Technology Facilities Council, STFC; Leverhulme Trust; European Research Council, ERC; European Cooperation in Science and Technology, COST; Australian Research Council, ARC; National Stroke Foundation, NSF; Neurosurgical Research Foundation, NRF; Helmholtz-Gemeinschaft, HGF; Minerva Foundation; Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, DFG; Agence Nationale de la Recherche, ANR; Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, KAKEN; Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, MEXT; Schweizerischer Nationalfonds zur Förderung der Wissenschaftlichen Forschung, SNF; Danmarks Grundforskningsfond, DNRF; Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo, FAPESP; National Natural Science Foundation of China, NSFC; Ministerstvo Školství, Mláde?e a T?lov?chovy, MŠMT; Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia, FCT; Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung, BMBF; Chinese Academy of Sciences, CAS; Austrian Science Fund, FWF; Generalitat de Catalunya; Ministry of Science and Technology of the People's Republic of China, MOST; Agencia Nacional de Promoción Científica y Tecnológica, ANPCyT; Nederlandse Organisatie voor Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek, NWO; Bundesministerium für Wissenschaft, Forschung und Wirtschaft, BMWFW; Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico, CNPq; Nella and Leon Benoziyo Center for Neurological Diseases, Weizmann Institute of Science; Israel Science Foundation, ISF; Instituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare, INFN; Narodowe Centrum Nauki, NCN; Javna Agencija za Raziskovalno Dejavnost RS, ARRS; Ministarstvo Prosvete, Nauke i Tehnološkog Razvoja, MPNTR; Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación, MICINN; Centre National pour la Recherche Scientifique et Technique, CNRST; Staatssekretariat für Bildung, Forschung und Innovation, SBFI; Horizon 2020; British Columbia Knowledge Development Fund, BCKDF; European Regional Development Fund, ERDF; Defence Science Institute, DSI; Narodowa Agencja Wymiany Akademickiej, NAWA; Institutul de Fizic?

Atlas Flavour-Tagging Algorithms for the Lhc Run 2 Pp Collision Dataset
No full textThe flavour-tagging algorithms developed by the AvTLAS Collaboration and used to analyse its dataset of root s = 13 TeV pp collisions from Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider are presented. These new tagging algorithms are based on recurrent and deep neural networks, and their performance is evaluated in simulated collision events. These developments yield considerable improvements over previous jet-flavour identification strategies. At the 77% b-jet identification efficiency operating point, light-jet (charm-jet) rejection factors of 170 (5) are achieved in a sample of simulated Standard Model t (t) over bar events; similarly, at a c-jet identification efficiency of 30%, a light-jet (b-jet) rejection factor of 70 (9) is obtained.We acknowledge the support of ANPCyT, Argentina; YerPhI, Armenia; ARC, Australia; BMWFW and FWF, Austria; ANAS, Azerbaijan; CNPq and FAPESP, Brazil; NSERC, NRC and CFI, Canada; CERN; ANID, Chile; CAS, MOST and NSFC, China; Minciencias, Colombia; MEYS CR, Czech Republic; DNRF and DNSRC, Denmark; IN2P3-CNRS and CEA-DRF/IRFU, France; SRNSFG, Georgia; BMBF, HGF and MPG, Germany; GSRI, Greece; RGC and Hong Kong SAR, China; ISF and Benoziyo Center, Israel; INFN, Italy; MEXT and JSPS, Japan; CNRST, Morocco; NWO, Netherlands; RCN, Norway; MEiN, Poland; FCT, Portugal; MNE/IFA, Romania; MESTD, Serbia; MSSR, Slovakia; ARRS and MIZS, Slovenia; DSI/NRF, South Africa; MICINN, Spain; SRC and Wallenberg Foundation, Sweden; SERI, SNSF and Cantons of Bern and Geneva, Switzerland; MOST, Taiwan; TENMAK, Turkiye; STFC, United Kingdom; DOE and NSF, United States of America.
