No full textCataloged from PDF version of article.Includes bibliographical references (leaves 76-80).A fan can be anyone who has both potential media consumer and producer. Fandom
as we call, is a community of fans interested in a specific media context such as
actor, author or TV series. This study is about the developing fandom around
eSports (electronic sports) in Turkey, analyzing game fans interaction with League of
Legends which has become a product of popular culture. To investigate eSports
fandom, this study relies on interviews with professional and amateur players and
virtual ethnographic methods. Findings of the interviews and ethnographic data aim
to ground the similarities between League of Legends players reproducing and code
switching techniques in the light of Anglo American studies on series and movie
fandom.by Samet Taygun Özbıçakçı
STATIC AND FATIGUE PERFORMANCE OF ORIENTED STRANDBOARD AS UPHOLSTERED FURNITURE FRAME STOCK
No full textThis study investigated the lateral shear resistance of multi-staple joints, static and fatigue bending moment resistances of stapled gusset-plate joints, and fatigue bending performance of full size sofa structural members in three oriented strandboard (OSB) materials. It is concluded that the lateral shear resistance capacity of multi-staple joints in OSB can be predicted with power equations including single-staple lateral resistance capacity, number of staples, and material density. The bending moment resistance of stapled gusset plate joints in OSB can be predicted by mechanical models including the lateral resistance property of multi-staple joints. The static moment capacity study of a gusset-plate joint concluded that its maximum moment resistance is 2 times of its corresponding proportional limit moment resistance. Experimental results indicated that there was no significant difference in lateral shear resistance among vertically-aligned multi-staple joints constructed of three OSB materials even though there were significant differences in lateral resistance among single-staple joints in these three materials. However, there were significant differences in lateral resistances among horizontally-aligned multi-staple joints in three OSB materials. Fatigue test results concluded that the ratio of static to passed fatigue moment capacity of gusset-plate joints was 2.6. The proposed equations reasonably estimated fatigue life of less brittle OSB materials subjected to cyclic stepped and constant fatigue loads but underestimated the brittle OSB material. The ratios of material modulus of rupture to passed fatigue stress were 2.17 and 2.25 for cyclic stepped and constant cyclic tests, respectively
Procjena obilježja puzanja spojeva namještaja s klamericom izrađenih od različitih vrsta drva
No full textIn this study, creep characteristics of single stapled furniture joints made of Scotch pine, alder and beech wood under three different load levels were considered. Load levels were determined as 30 %, 40 % and 50 % of the maximum load obtained as a result of static shear test before creep load and applied to wood joints. Laboratory test results showed that the highest creep deformation was observed in the joints made of Scotch pine with the lowest density, while the lowest creep deformation was observed in the joints made of beech with the highest density. In addition, the joints were exposed to lowest creep deformation at the 30 % load level, then the creep deformation of the joints increased at 40 % load level and it reached the highest value at 50 % load level. As a result of creep test, deformation in single stapled joints made of Scotch pine, alder and beech were determined as 2.74 %, 3.71 % and 4.37 % of the deformation that occurred as a result of static shear test performed before creep test, respectively. Ultimately, the overall average creep deformation value of a single staple wood joint under creep loading was determined as 3.61 %.U radu su istraživana obilježja puzanja spojeva namještaja s klamericom izrađenih od borovine, johovine i bukovine pri različitim stupnjevima opterećenja. Stupnjevi opterećenja definirani su kao 30, 40 i 50 % najvećeg opterećenja dobivenoga kao rezultat statičkoga smičnog ispitivanja prije opterećenja pri puzanju te su primijenjeni na drvne spojeve napravljene klamericom. Rezultati laboratorijskih ispitivanja pokazali su da je najveća deformacija puzanja zabilježena na spojevima izrađenima od borovine, koja ima najmanju gustoću, a najmanja je deformacija puzanja uočena na spojevima od bukovine, koja ima najveću gustoću. Usto, najmanja deformacija puzanja spojeva zabilježena je pri stupnju opterećenja od 30 %, zatim se deformacija puzanja povećala pri stupnju opterećenja od 40 % i dosegnula najveću vrijednost pri stupnju opterećenja od 50 %. Rezultati ispitivanja puzanja pokazali su da je deformacija spojeva s klamericom izrađenih od borovine, johovine i bukovine iznosila 2,74, 3,71 i 4,37 % deformacije koja je rezultat statičkoga smičnog naprezanja provedenoga prije ispitivanja puzanja. U konačnici, ukupna prosječna vrijednost deformacije puzanja drvenog spoja s klamericom iznosila je 3,61 %

Equity as a vehicle for law reform: The case of unilateral mistake
No full textIn this paper I ask whether English Law should permit rescission for unilateral mistakes in the formation of contract, in circumstances where the defendant (D) knew or should have known about the claimant’s (C) mistake, and if so, should Equity be (re)employed to deploy the remedy. The paper introduces the Caveat Emptor Common Law rule on this issue, which rules out rescission, and the various considerations that count in its favour. I argue that neither considerations from efficiency, nor those based in ethics can justify the current rule, and that new, flexible and morally-sensitive resolution is called for. If we examine the way in which Equity intervenes to reform areas of law where the Common Law fails to provide a satisfactory solution to legal disputes, we will see that the Caveat Emptor rule displays exactly the kind of defects that Equity does a very good job at remedying. The law on the duty to disclose information at the precontractual stage emerges as an excellent example for Equity’s great potential as a vehicle for improving the law in a measured, nuanced and imaginative way.Peer reviewe

Bending Moment Resistance of L-Shaped Two-Gusset-Plate Furniture Joints in Oriented Strandboard
No full textBending moment resistances of L-shaped joints connected with two gusset plates stapled on one side of joint members in oriented strandboard (OSB) were investigated. Factors were joint member material type, rail width, and number of staples. Experimental results showed that ultimate moment resistances of L-shaped, gusset-plate joints ranged from 429 to 842 N-m. Ultimate moment resistance loads of joints connected with 12 staples were 43% higher than those with 8 staples. Ultimate moment resistance loads increased as rail width increased from 152 to 203 mm with an increment of 25.4 mm, but the significance was affected by material type and number of staples. The increase in ultimate moment resistance loads of L-shaped, gusset-plate joints was not sensitive to material density profile change and density increase when 178-mm-wide or less rails were used, but the increase in moment resistances was sensitive to density increase when 203-mm-wide rails were used. Moment load-displacement curves of gusset-plate joints indicated that moment resistance loads at the ultimate point were two times their corresponding moment resistance loads at a proportional limit. The mechanical model was verified experimentally as a valid means for deriving estimation equations of moment resistances of L-shaped, gusset-plate joints in OSB
