Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Alüminyum 7068 malzemesinin mekanik davranışlarının hassas olarak incelenmesi ve hasar modelinin araştırılması
Yüksek mukavemet, yüksek tokluk, düşük yoğunluk ve korozyon dirençliliğinin ümit vaat eden kombinasyonu, onlarca yıldır alüminyum (Al) alaşımlarını binalardan havacılık sektörüne çeşitli uygulamalarda tercih edilen malzeme haline getirmiştir. Özellikle son zamanlarda geliştirilen malzemelerden bir tanesi olan Al 7068 alaşımı, olağanüstü mekanik ve mekanik özelliklerinden dolayı savunma sanayinde ve otomobil sanayinde kullanılmaktadır. Bu yüksek lisans tezinde, Al 7068-T651 alaşımının mekanik tepkisi ve Johnson-Cook hasar modeli araştırılmıştır. Özellikle, maksimum, minimum ve ortalama sonuçları dikkate alarak farklı uygulama alanları için farklı Johnson-Cook hasar parametreleri belirlenmiştir. Bu hasar parametreleri doğru Sonlu Elemanlar Analizi simülasyonları için kullanılabilir. Hasar parametrelerinin belirlenmesinde, hem hadde yönünde hem de hadde yönüne dik olarak çentikli ve düzgün numuneler üzerinde çekme deneyleri yapılmıştır. Çentik yarıçapı, farklı gerilim üçeksenliliği değerlerini sağlamak için pürüzsüz, 0,4 mm, 0,8 mm ve 2 mm olarak seçildi ve bu gerilim üçeksenliliği değerlerinde mekanik malzemenin tepkisi gözlemlendi. Çekme testleri, doğru sonuçları elde etmek için yedi kez tekrarlandı. Kırık numunelerin son kesit alanları optik mikroskop ile hesaplandı. Gerilim üçeksenliliği faktörünün ve hadde yönünün Al 7068-T651 alaşımının mekanik özellikleri üzerindeki etkileri başarılı bir şekilde araştırılmıştır. Tüm hasar parametreleri Levenberg-Marquardt optimizasyon yöntemi ile hesaplandı. Sonuç olarak, minimum, ortalama ve maksimum eşdeğer gerinim değerlerine dayanan üç farklı Johnson-Cook hasar parametresi hesaplanmıştır. Bu Johnson-Cook hasar parametreleri, bir hesaplama tekniği olan ve bu çeşitli mühendislik problemlerinin yaklaşık çözümünü elde etmek için kullanılan sonlu elemanlar analizinde farklı uygulamaların doğru hasar simülasyonları için kullanılabilir.The promising combination of high strength, high toughness, low density and corrosion resistivity have made aluminium (Al) alloys the material of choice in various applications, from buildings to aerospace, for decades. Especially, Al 7068 alloy is one of the recently developed materials used mostly in defence and automobile industries due to their exceptional mechanical properties. In this master thesis, the mechanical response and Johnson-Cook damage model of Al 7068-T651 alloy was investigated. Specifically, different Johnson-Cook damage parameters were determined for different application areas considering the maximum, minimum and average results. These damage parameters can be used for accurate Finite Element Analysis simulations. To determine these damage parameters tensile tests were conducted on notched and smooth specimen son both rolling direction and perpendicular to the rolling direction. The notch radius were selected as smooth, 0.4 mm, 0.8 mm and 2 mm to provide different stress triaxiality values and observe the mechanical response at these triaxiality values. Tensile tests were repeated seven times to obtain the accurate results. The final cross-sectional areas of fractured specimens were calculated through optical microscopy. The effects of stress triaxiality factor and rolling direction on the mechanical properties of Al 7068-T651 alloy were successfully investigated. All damage parameters were calculated via Levenberg-Marquardt optimization method. Overall, three different Johnson-Cook damage parameters based on minimum, average and maximum equivalent strain values were calculated. These Johnson-Cook damage parameters can be utilized for the accurate damage simulations of different applications in Finite Element Analysis, which is a computational technique and is used to obtain approximate solution of several engineering problems
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Effect of hydrogen on fracture locus of Fe-16Mn-0.6C-2.15Al TWIP steel
Bal, Burak/0000-0002-7389-9155; Billur, Eren/0000-0001-9984-3697; BAYRAM, FERDI CANER/0000-0002-8607-2421Effect of hydrogen on the mechanical response and fracture locus of commercial TWIP steel was investigated comprehensively by tensile testing TWIP steel samples at room temperature and quasi-static regime. 5 different sample geometries were utilized to ensure different specific stress states and a digital image correlation (DIC) system was used during tensile tests. Electrochemical charging method was utilized for hydrogen charging and microstructural characterizations were carried out by scanning electron microscope. Stress triaxiality factors were calculated throughout the plastic deformation via finite element analysis (FEA) based simulations and average values were calculated at the most critical node. A specific Python script was developed to determine the equivalent fracture strain. Based on the experimental and numerical results, the relation between the equivalent fracture strain and stress triaxiality was determined and the effect of hydrogen on the corresponding fracture locus was quantified. The deterioration in the mechanical response due to hydrogen was observed regardless of the sample geometry and hydrogen changed the fracture mode from ductile to brittle. Moreover, hydrogen affected the fracture locus of TWIP steel by lowering the equivalent failure strains at given stress triaxiality levels. In this study, a modified Johnson-Cook failure mode was proposed and effect of hydrogen on damage constants were quantified. (C) 2020 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
