    Bu makalede Elâzığ'ın 4 km doğusunda bulunan Ulukent (Hüseynik) mahallesinde, Çağlayan ailesine ait evin bahçesinde ayrı bir yapı şeklinde düzenlenmiş olan havuzbaşının mimarisi ve yapının duvarına karakalem çalışması olarak yapılmış olan Harput panoraması ele alınmıştır. Havuzbaşı mimari ve plan özellikleri açısından bakıldığında, iki bölümlü olarak yapılmıştır. Esas mekân eyvan biçiminde düzenlemeye sahiptir. Ön cephesi güneye dönük olan yapının güney batıdaki küçük olan (kapalı tutulan) I. mekânında ocak ve davlumbazı bulunduğu belirtilmektedir. Bu mekân mutfak işlevi görmektedir. II. mekânın ise; güney ve doğu cepheleri açık tutulmuş, kuzey ve batı yönleri ise kapalı tutulmuştur. Batı duvarı üzerine Harput panoraması işlenmiştir. Eserin mimarisinden ziyade panoraması, yayınlarda ele alınmıştır. Metin Sözen, Rüçhan Arık ve Namık Açıkgöz çalışmalarında panoramayı ele almışlardır. "Eser birçok unsuru ve umumi kompozisyon anlayışı açısından şehir minyatür hususiyeti arz etmektedir" şeklinde değerlendirilmektedir. Ancak; eser yapılış şekli itibarıyla karakalem duvar gravürü olarak nitelendirilebileceği kanaatindeyim. Karakalem çalışması olarak yapılan panorama 105 X 270 cm ebadındadır. Perspektif uygulaması olmayan çizimde Harput'un yaklaşık yüzyıl önceki durumu resmedilmiştir.  This article studies architecture of Havuzbaşı and Harput panorama which was drawn in pencil on the wall of fountain in the garden of Çağlayan Family's house which is located at the quarter of Ulukent (Hüseynik) 4 km far east of Elâzığ city centre. Building of Havuzbaşı and its plan was constructed in two parts. The main part is liwan (three walled vaulted antechamber). Frontal side looks to south. South-West side of the building was walled and has a fireplace and its chimney. This part is used as kitchen. South and east sides of the second part were open, but north and west sides were walled. On the west wall, Harput panorama was drawn in pencil. Scholars such as Metin Sözen, Rüçhan Arık and Namık Açıkgöz studied the panorama rather than its architecture. The building presents pecularity of city miniature from the point of many elements and general composition view. However, I myself analyse that the work could be named as pencil drawing from the point of its form. Panorama drawn in pencil, is 105x270 cm in size. In this drawing has no perspective performance and shows almost one hundred years ago of Harput

    Diffusive author(s), cohesive author: Analysis of S/N (1994)

    This study indicates the ways in which various aspects of the author(s) are brought forth in Dumb type’s performance art, the S/N production. Previous research has suggested a non-hierarchical organization of Dumb type and the absence of a “privileged author” in Dumb type’s collaborative work, S/N. However, the results that I have investigated from member’s interviews on the creative process of S/N along with my analysis of the recorded images of S/N, indicate a different aspect of the author(s). First, S/N was created through, so to speak, the collective ideas of the members of Dumb type. Further, S/N has at least nine quotations from previous performances, installations, and printed writings, besides the work-in-progress technique. Explicating one of the “author functions” as given by Michel Foucault, each text has plural subjects of the author. However, it has been revealed from members’ interviews that Teiji Furuhashi had a decision-making role in selecting the members’ ideas within the performance. Since then, S/N has had plural subjects of creation; however, Furuhashi is one of the subjects of creation along with the “privileged author.” S/N has plural authors (diffusive authors) yet at the same time, it has a “privileged author,” Teiji Furuhashi (cohesive author)

    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

    Frequency warping compressive sensing for structural monitoring of aircraft wing

    No full text
    This work focuses on an ultrasonic guided wave structural health monitoring (SHM) system development for aircraft wing inspection. The performed work simulate small, low-cost and light-weight piezoelectric discs bonded to various parts of the aircraft wing, in a form of relatively sparse arrays, for cracks and corrosion monitoring. The piezoelectric discs take turns generating and receiving ultrasonic guided waves. The development of an in situ health monitoring system that can inspect large areas and communicate remotely to the inspector is highly computational demanding due to both the huge number of Piezoelectric sensors needed and the high sampling frequency. To address this problem, a general approach for low rate sampling is developed. Compressive Sensing (CS) has emerged as a potentially viable technique for the efficient acquisition that exploits the sparse representation of dispersive ultrasonic guided waves in the frequency warped basis. The framework is applied to lower the sampling frequency and to enhance defect localization performances of Lamb wave inspection systems. The approach is based on the inverse Warped Frequency Transform (WFT) as the sparsifying basis for the Compressive Sensing acquisition and to compensate the dispersive behaviour of Lamb waves. As a result, an automatic detection procedure to locate defect-induced reflections was demonstrated and successfully tested on simulated Lamb waves propagating in an aluminum wing specimen using PZFlex software. The proposed method is suitable for defect detection and can be easily implemented for real application to structural health monitoring

    De Harput en Turquie à Massachusetts : l’immigration des chrétiens jacobites

    No full text
    This essay falls into the category of rendering visible a community, the Jacobite Assyrians of Massachusetts, who have remained virtually unknown in the larger context of Middle Eastern Diaspora studies and American ethnic and cultural history. This brief study of the immigration of the Jacobite Christians originally from Harput, Turkey who settled in New England, shows a variety of distinct method(s) of identity preservation and transmission to subsequent generations, especially in regard to personal and group identity structures. These people, sometimes referred to as "Jacobite Syrians" by early Western travellers and missionaries, identified themselves as the "sons of Asshur" in 1842. (Southgate 1856:87) This paper is a narrative of the community's tribulations in their country of origin during the first half of the twentieth century, internal religious politics espoused by the church, as well as their life and establishment in American society

The framework is applied to lower the sampling frequency and to enhance defect localization performances of Lamb wave inspection systems.

The proposed method is suitable for defect detection and can be easily implemented for real application to structural health monitoring

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    No full text
    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

    Can archives of audiovisual TV interviews be used to make authors more visible to students, and thereby reduce the learning gap between native and non-native language speakers in college classes? We examined students in a college course who learned about one scholar's ideas through watching an audiovisual TV interview (i.e., visible author format) and about another scholar's ideas through reading a formal text description (i.e., invisible author format). For the invisible author, native language speakers scored significantly higher than the non-native language speakers on a corresponding exam question (i.e., a cognitive measure), generated more words on the exam question (i.e., a motivational measure), and mentioned the author's name more often in answering the exam question (i.e., an affective measure). For the visible author, the groups did not differ on any of these measures. These findings provide evidence for the idea that making the author visible through audiovisual TV interviews can eliminate the learning gap between native and non-native language speakers. 3 Universities around the world serve students who are non-native speakers of th
