Survive the Saracoglu District - Saving the Architectural Heritage of Ankara
No full textToday, urban and architectural heritage of metropolitan cities have been transformed by urban renewal projects in Turkey. Ankara is one of the cities that have been exposed to this rebuild process. Actually, the city, which is at the center of Anatolia was well planned when it was chosen as the capital of new Republic. In other words, Ankara located in the middle of Anatolian steppe was planned and built from scratch together with the establishment of the Republic. In the formation period, Saracoglu district (Namik Kemal District) built for the settlement of state employees is one of the most significant areas that stenghtens the new plan of Ankara. This district as one of the outstanding urban heritages of the Republican era is attempted to be destroyed by the way of urban renewal projects which are very popular attempts to shape the cities in nowadays construction industry in Turkey. At this point, the aim of this study is to emphasize the value of Saracoglu district for Turkish civil architecture and the city of Ankara. District is a treasure right in the center of the city with its fauna, natural environment, historical, cultural and architectural values. The objective is to ensure the preservation of the district by pointing to the several suggestions of social and professional organizations to keep the settlement alive and to prevent the destruction of collective memory

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
Synthesis of a new series of 2-vinylindoles and their cycloaddition reactivity
No full textSaracoglu, Nurullah/0000-0002-1504-7480WOS: 000276588400004The regioselective synthesis of 2-vinylindoles was achieved through the use of 4,7-dihydroindole 19.

Variations on the Author
No full text“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
A view on pediatric airway management: a cross sectional survey study.
No full textBACKGROUND
This survey aimed to investigate routine practices and approaches of clinicians on pediatric airway in anesthesia and intensive care medicine.
METHODS
A 20-question multiple-choice questionnaire with the possibility to provide open text answers was developed and sent. The survey was sent to the members of European Airway Management Society via a web-based platform. Responses were analysed thematically. Only the answers from one representative of the pediatric service of each hospital was included into the analysis.
RESULTS
Among the members, 143 physicians responded the survey, being anesthesiologists (83.2%), intensivists (11.9%), emergency medicine physicians (2.1%), and (2.8%) pain medicine practitioners. A straight blade was preferred by 115 participants (80.4%) in newborns, whereas in infants 86 (60.1%) indicated a curved blade and 55 (38.5%) a straight blade. Uncuffed tracheal tube were preferred by 115 participants (80.4%) in newborns, whereas 24 (16.8%) used cuffed tubes. Approximately 2/3 of the participants, (89=62.2%) reported not to use routinely a cuff manometer in their clinical practice, whereas 54 participants (37.8%) use it routinely in pediatric patients. Direct laryngoscopy for routine pediatric tracheal intubation was reported by 127 participants (88.8%), while 16 (11.2%) reported using videolaryngoscopes routinely. Interestingly, 39 (27.3%) had never performed neither videolaryngoscopy nor flexible bronchoscopy in children. These results were significantly less in hospitals with a dedicated pediatric anesthesiologists.
CONCLUSIONS
This survey on airway management in pediatric anesthesia revealed that the use of cuffed tubes and the routine monitoring of cuff pressure are rare. In addition, the rate of videolaryngoscopy or flexible optical intubation was low for expected difficult intubation. Our survey highlights the need for properly trained pediatric anesthesiologists working in-line with updated scientific evidence
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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
Energy Analysis of Pulsating Coolant Ejection
No full textHigh-pressure turbines are subjected to high expansion ratios which may result in supersonic vane or rotor outlet. In the supersonic regime, shock waves are formed at the vane trailing edges that periodically impact on the downstream rotor blades and the neighboring vane. Pulsating cooling was proposed to modulate the trailing edge shocks to diminish the detrimental efficiency abatement and structural problems. A large test section equipped with three airfoils, replicated the actual loading of a transonic vane. Tests were performed in a short duration compression tube facility at four Mach numbers (0.8, 0.95, 1.1 and 1.2) and two different Reynolds numbers (4 and 6 million). Coolant was fed to the trailing edge of the central airfoil through a siren valve, that allowed to study four different coolant blowing cases: no-blowing, continuous blowing at three pressure levels and a pulsating coolant blowing condition. Unsteady numerical simulations of the flow over the airfoil model were performed using ANSYS 14 (Fluent) flow solver. In order to understand the impact of the different steady and unsteady cooling schemes on the efficiency of high pressure turbine bladings, the individual contribution of trailing edge and profile losses were calculated. The coolant ejection generated a significant reduction of the trailing edge loss. The overall losses also diminished by the introduction of cooling as compared to no blowing case. Improvements in loss levels owing to pulsating cooling observed to be more pronounced for the engine representative cooling rates (∼3%). The trends in loss variation with respect to cooling scheme show that pulsating cooling may become superior for high blowing cases
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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
