    Bu makale Gümüşhane Vilayeti?ndeki dergicilik faaliyetleri ve vilayetteki ilk basın organı olan „İrfan Yolunda İlk Adım? adlı dergiyi incelemektedir. Cumhuriyetin ilanından 6 ay sonra 15 Nisan 1924 tarihinde yayına başlayan bu dergi her ne kadar sadece 3 sayı ayakta durabilmişse de, cumhuriyetin GümüŞhane halkının kültürel, sosyal ve ekonomik yapısı üzerindeki etkilerini yansıtan nadir bir yerel kaynaktır. Bu makalede eğitim ağırlıklı olarak çıkan „irfan Yolunda İlk Adım? dergisinin cumhuriyetin halkı eğitme hedefi doğrultusunda yayın yaptığı tesbit edilmektedir.This article examines the magazine publication in the city of GümüĢhane in general and the first GümüĢhane press publication The First Step on the Way to Knowledge magazine in particular. Although the fortnightly magazine, which was launched on April 15, 1924—six months after the declaration of the Turkish republic—lasted only three issues, it is one of the rare local sources that reflected the influence of the republic on the cultural, social and economic structure of the GümüĢhane residents. This article reveals that the education focus of the magazine was in line with the republic‟s aim to educate people

    Tarih boyunca ngiltere, Fransa ve Rusyan n ba l ca ç kar ve çat ma alanlar ndan biri de; stanbul ve bo azlar olmu tur. Bölgeyi kontrolleri alt na alabilmek için sürekli mücadele eden bu devletler, XIX. Yüzy l n sonlar ndan itibaren gerçekle tirdikleri anla malarla tilâf Devletleri ad alt nda birle mi ler, 1914de ba layan I. Dünya Harbini de bu amaçlar n gerçekle tirmek için bir f rsat olarak görmü lerdir. Nitekim harpten sonra Osmanl Devleti ile imza ettikleri Mond- ros Mütarekesinde stanbulun i gal edilmesini gerektirecek herhangi bir hüküm olmamas na kar n; 13 Kas m 1918de ehri fiilen i gal etmi lerdir. Bu hukuk d anlay tilâf Devletlerinin stanbuldaki bütün faaliyetlerine de yans m t r. Üstelik 13 Kas m 1918de yarat lan bu fiili i gal durumu, geli ecek birtak m siyasi ve askeri olaylar neticesinde 16 Mart 1920de resmi bir hüviyet kazanm t r. Nitekim bu tarihten itibaren ehirdeki çe itli alanlar kontrol alt na al narak; askeri ve mülki kurumlar ele geçirilmi ve birçok da tutuklama gerçekle tirilmi tir.Throughout history, Istanbul and the Bosphorus have been one of the major areas of interest and conflict for England, France and Russia. These states, which were in a constant struggle to have the control of the region, united under the name of Allied States in parallel with the agre- ements signed after the end of the 19th century. They also viewed the First World War, which broke out in 1914, as a chance of achieving their goals. Although there existed no provision in the Treaty of Mudros that they signed with the Ottomans, which requires the occupation of Istanbul, they actually invaded the city in 13 November, 1918. Their illegal attitude could be observed in all the activities in Istanbul carried out by the Allied States. In addition, the actual case of invasion that occurred in 13 November, 1918 reached an official identity as a result of a number of political and military events to later occur in 16 March, 1920. After the date of 16 March 1920, various areas in the city were brought under control. Moreover, military and civil intuitions were seized and a high number of people were arrested

    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

    Simulation of thermal plant optimization and hydraulic aspects of thermal distribution loops for large campuses

    No full text
    Following an introduction, the author describes Texas A&M University and its utilities system. After that, the author presents how to construct simulation models for chilled water and heating hot water distribution systems. The simulation model was used in a $2.3 million Ross Street chilled water pipe replacement project at Texas A&M University. A second project conducted at the University of Texas at San Antonio was used as an example to demonstrate how to identify and design an optimal distribution system by using a simulation model. The author found that the minor losses of these closed loop thermal distribution systems are significantly higher than potable water distribution systems. In the second part of the report, the author presents the latest development of software called the Plant Optimization Program, which can simulate cogeneration plant operation, estimate its operation cost and provide optimized operation suggestions. The author also developed detailed simulation models for a gas turbine and heat recovery steam generator and identified significant potential savings. Finally, the author also used a steam turbine as an example to present a multi-regression method on constructing simulation models by using basic statistics and optimization algorithms. This report presents a survey of the author??s working experience at the Energy Systems Laboratory (ESL) at Texas A&M University during the period of January 2002 through March 2004. The purpose of the above work was to allow the author to become familiar with the practice of engineering. The result is that the author knows how to complete a project from start to finish and understands how both technical and nontechnical aspects of a project need to be considered in order to ensure a quality deliverable and bring a project to successful completion. This report concludes that the objectives of the internship were successfully accomplished and that the requirements for the degree of Degree of Engineering have been satisfied

    No full text
    Includes author's vita"Submitted to the College of Engineering of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Engineering."Includes bibliographical referencesA review of the author's internship experience with CH���M HILL, Inc. during the period September 1975 through May 1976 is presented. During this nine month internship the author worked as an Engineer II in the Industrial Processes discipline of this large consulting engineering firm... The author's prime responsibility was as one of three lead design engineers on the design of a large wastewater treatment facility for a pulp mill in Hoquiam, Washington owned by ITT Rayonier Inc. The work generally consisted of the design of individual treatment units and associated piping and pumping. The purpose of the project was to provide wastewater treatment capabilities that would satisfy the effluent limitations (standards) imposed upon the mill by the State of Washington Department of Ecology and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. The author's assignment also entailed necessary interaction with the project manager and other CH���M HILL design engineers and support staff members, the client's representatives, and representatives of two other consulting engineering firms working on the project. Thus, the internship position at CH���M HILL provided considerable experience coordinating the author's work with the work of other engineers, guiding the design and administrative efforts of a support staff, and interacting regularly with the client and other consulting firms. This broad exposure to a variety of engineering and organizational problems provided a valuable educational experience

    Transition to turbulence in a qblique shock-wave/boundary-layer interaction at M=15

    No full text
    Direct numerical simulations are carried out for different forcing techniques to trigger transition during the interaction between an oblique shock-wave and a laminar boundary-layer at M = 1.5. Three forcing methods are used: a) forcing of oblique unstable modes, whose shape and behaviour are determined by the local linear stability theory, b) broadband free-stream acoustic disturbances, and c) a cold plasma flow control device. While the oblique-mode breakdown is dominant for low-amplitude forcing, long streaky structures drive the transition process in a high-amplitude disturbance environment. LES are also performed on the experimental setup by the Institute of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (ITAM) from Novosibirsk State University with cold plasma actuation. As well as the disturbance type, the effect of Reynolds number and forcing amplitude will be investigated
