    WOS: 000323824200014The static bending strengths, modulus of rupture, and modulus of elasticity of 5 commercial wood-based composites [softwood plywood (SWP), hardwood plywood (HWP), medium density fiber-board (MDF), oriented strand board (OSB), and particleboard (PB)] were measured after a postmanufacture treatment of vacuum-impregnation with alkaline copper quat (ACQ) and copper azole (CA) (target retentions: 0.65, 1.30, and 2.60 kg m(-3) for ACQ; 0.25, 0.50, and 1.0 kg m(-3) for CA). Of the composites tested, SWP exceptionally sustained no damage to its bending strengths, regardless of preservative types and retentions. Others (HWP, MDF, OSB, and PB) were necessarily affected to some degree by posttreatments. In accordance with the dimensional stability and resistance to biological attacks, of the posttreated composites, SWP seems most suitable and implemental for posttreatment when the appropriate selection of treatment concentrations and schedules is made.Japan Society for the Promotion of Science through RISH Laboratories in Kyoto University [P07171]The author extends his appreciation to the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science for supporting this study through a postdoctoral fellowship grant (P07171) at RISH Laboratories in Kyoto University and to the late Kunio Tsunoda, who gave moral support in the beginning of the study

    Süleyman Nazif (1869-1927) Servetifünun Türk Edebiyatı’nın önde gelen, şair, yazar, gazeteci ve devlet adamı olarak Türk edebiyatında önemli izler bırakmış bir şahsiyetidir. Değişik gazete ve dergilerde yazmış olduğu binden fazla yazı, Süleyman Nazif’in yaşadığı devri siyasi, sosyal ve kültürel açılardan ne kadar sağlam gözlemlediğini gösterir. Gözlemlediği problemlere rasyonel çözümler sunabilen ve sunduğu çözümleri de hem aklen hem de kalben hissederek yaşadığı, yazılarında açık bir şekilde görülmektedir. Bu yazılarında kullandığı üslup yazarın edebî yönünün de çok kuvvetli olduğunun açık bir göstergesidir. Yazar Osmanlı Türkçesi’ne hâkimdir ve bunu da dilde sadeleşmeyi savunanlara karşı bilinçli olarak, sanatkârane kullanmıştır. Hadisat gazetesi (1918-1919) Süleyman Nazif ve Cenap Şahabettin tarafından toplamda 174 sayı olarak çıkarılmıştır. Süleyman Nazif’in 1 Nisan 1919- 23 Haziran 1919 tarihleri arasında Hadisat gazetesinde yayımlanan yazıları Mütareke Dönemi’nin siyasi, sosyal ve kültürel olaylarının iyi anlaşılması bakımından büyük önem taşımaktadır. Çalışmamızın birinci bölümünde Hadisat gazetesindeki bu yazılar incelenmiş ve bu yazılarda Ermeni Meselesi, Şark Meselesi, İttihat ve Terakki gibi devrin en çok tartışılan konular ve günümüzde hâlâ tazeliğini koruyan birçok güncel problemi de yansıttığı görülmüştür. Çalışmanın ikinci bölümünde ise Hadisat gazetesinde bulunan bu yazılar Osmanlı Türkçesinden günümüz Türkçesine aktarılmıştır. Bu metinlerde geçen önemli yer ve şahıs adları açıklamalı olarak dizin bölümünde verilmiştirDile getirdiği problemlerde Süleyman Nazif’in milliyetçi vatanperver bir tavır sergilediği görülmektedir. leyman Nazif, Hadisat, Mütareke Dönemi, Ermeni Meselesi, Şark Meselesi, İttihat ve Terakki, Osmanlı Türkçesi, Türk basını, ServetifünunSüleyman Nazif (1869-1927) is one of the most prominent figures of Servetifünun Turkish literature as a poet, author, journalist and statesman who had left valuable works in Turkish literature. His more than one thousand articles in various newspapers and journals reflect his sound vision in the political, social and cultural aspects of his time. His heart-felt and mentally supported rational approach to issues is clearly visible in his works. His style in writing is also a clear indicator of his strong literal characteristics. The author is a master in Ottoman Turkish who used it in a deliberate and artistic style against the promoters of simplification in language. Hadisat newspaper (1918-1919) was published in 174 issues bay Süleyman Nazif and Cenap Şahabettin. Süleyman Nazif’s articles which were published in Hadisat newspaper between April the firs in 1919 and June the 23rd in 1919 are highly valued for understanding the political, social and cultural incidents during the Armistice. In the first part of our study these articles in Hadisat were read carefully and in them it was seen that he wrote about the most controversial issues of his time such as Armenian Issue, Eastern Question, The Party of Union and Progress besides the ones which are still current. In the second part of the study these articles were translated into the modern Turkish from the Ottoman Turkish. The names of important places and people which were mentioned in these texts were given in the index. The issues he depicted introduce us Suleyman Nazif as a nationalist patriot. Key Words: Süleyman Nazif, Hadisat, the Armistice, Armenian Issue, Eastern Question, Union and Progress, Ottoman Turkish, Turkish press, Servetifünun

    Some results on δ-semiperfect rings and δ-supplemented modules

    No full text
    In [9], the author extends the definition of lifting and supplemented modules to ?-lifting and ?-supplemented by replacing "small submodule" with "?-small submodule" introduced by Zhou in [13]. The aim of this paper is to show new properties of ?-lifting and ?-supplemented modules. Especially, we show that any finite direct sum of ?-hollow modules is ?-supplemented. On the other hand, the notion of amply ?-supplemented modules is studied as a generalization of amply supplemented modules and several properties of these modules are given. We also prove that a module M is Artinian if and only if M is amply ?-supplemented and satisfies Descending Chain Condition (DCC) on ?-supplemented modules and on ?-small submodules. Finally, we obtain the following result: a ring R is right Artinian if and only if R is a ?-semiperfect ring which satisfies DCC on ?-small right ideals of R

    Ebu'l-Berekât el-Bağdâdî'de kavram mantığı

    No full text
    Beş tümel ve tanım konularını esas alan tasavvurât/ kavram mantığı Aristoteles’te örtük olarak belirtilmiş iken İbn Sînâ’nın yaptığı sınıflandırmada mantığın iki ana bölümünden biri hâline gelmiştir. Bu tasnif, İslam filozofları tarafından klasik mantık alanında kabul görmüştür. Çalışmamızda incelediğimiz 12. yy. İslam filozoflarından Ebu’l-Berekât el-Bağdâdî de bu tasnife uymakla beraber kavram mantığı konularına birtakım eklemeler yapmıştır. Örneğin filozof, kavram mantığı konularına beş tümel ve tanımdan önce varlığın idrâki ve bilginin oluşumunda bir süreç olarak mârifet gibi konularla başlamıştır. Ayrıca filozofun varlığı zihnî ve zihin dışı olarak iki ayrı düzeyde ele alması ve İbn Sînâcı mantık anlayışına yer yer yeni yorumlar getirmesi dikkat çekicidir. Filozofun bu görüşleriyle sonrasındaki mantıkçılar üzerinde etkili olduğu görülmektedir. Yaptığımız bu çalışmada Ebu’l-Berekât el-Bağdâdî’nin kavram mantığı/ tasavvurât kısmına dair eleştiri, görüş ve yorumları incelenmiştir. Böylece bu araştırmada filozofun mantıkçı yönünün anlaşılması ve mantık müfredatına yaptığı katkıların tespit edilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmamızda Ebu’l-Berekât’ın kavram mantığı ile ilgili görüşleri, Aristoteles’ten hareketle İbn Sînâ ve Fârâbî’nin görüşleriyle birlikte karşılaştırmalı olarak müellifin kendi görüşleri merkeze alınarak değerlendirilmiştir.The concept logic / tasawwurāt, based on the five universals and definition issues, was implicitly stated in Aristotle, it became one of the two main parts of logic in Ibn Sina's classification. This classification has been accepted by Islamic philosophers in the field of classical logic.Abu'l-Barakat al-Baghdadi, one of the twelfth century Islamic philosophers we examined in our study, also complied with this classification, but made a number of additions to the issues of concept logic. For example, the philosopher begins issues of concept logic with issues such as five universals and approach to existence before definition and ma‘rifa as a process in the formation of knowledge. It is also remarkable that the philosopher treats existence as mind and non-mind on two separate levels and introduces new interpretations to Ibn Sina's understanding of logic. These views of the philosopher seem to have influenced subsequent logicians. In this study, we examined the criticism, opinions and comments of Abu'l-Berekat al-Baghdadi on the concept/ tasawwurat part of logic. Thus, the aim of this research is to understand the logician aspect of the philosopher and to determine his contributions to the logic field. In our study, Abu'l-Berekat's views on the logic of concepts were evaluated by taking the author's own views into the center along with the views of Ibn Sina, Farabi and Aristotle which both are based on

    Netherlands: unilateral changes in exit taxation of annuities and pensions:Tax treaty override?

    No full text
    In the Netherlands, the case law on the exit taxation of annuities and pension claims seems to be a never-ending story. In 2009, the author discussed in a Dutch tax journal the changes in the exit taxation of annuities and pension claims that the Dutch legislature introduced on 16 July 2009 as a very quick reaction to decisions of the Dutch Supreme Court in this context. The new legislation was passed only one week after these decisions! This new legislation is the subject of the decisions discussed in this chapter. In 2012, the author discussed another decision of the Supreme Court in respect of exit taxation on pension claims under the Belgium-Netherlands Income and Capital Tax Treaty (2001). The research questions of this chapter are: – Do the 2009 changes in the Dutch national tax law in respect of the exit taxation of annuities and pension claims constitute tax treaty override?– Should these 2009 changes be considered to constitute tax treaty override? In 2009, the Dutch legislature changed the national tax law systems in respect of the exit taxation on annuities and pensions. The questions are whether the inclusion of these rules constitutes or should be considered to constitute tax treaty override in respect of tax treaties concluded before 2009. Since a significant number of countries have included an exit taxation clause in various fields in their national laws, the answers to these questions may not only be relevant for the Netherlands, but may have a wider impact. Therefore, the answers provided by the Dutch Supreme Court may, both from an academic and practical point of view, contribute to the learning processes in other states. In this context, in this chapter, the author will discuss a recent ruling of the Dutch Supreme Court: HR, 14 July 2017, no. 17/01256, BNB 2017/186. The most important question in this case was whether the changes in the Dutch domestic tax legislation had to be considered an act of tax treaty override in the context of the France-Netherlands Income and Capital Tax Treaty (1973).In order to answer the research questions, this contribution adheres to a traditional legal methodology. In the context of interpreting and applying tax treaties, the principle of good faith is a main principle of international taxation. This methodology makes it possible to acquire a more complete understanding of the possible impact of the interpretation and application of tax treaties as done by the Dutch Supreme Court. For the descriptions, analyses and evaluations, the author has used sources of law, including national tax law, (tax) treaties (including the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties – VCLT, and the respective OECD Models), global issues (e.g. global principles in redistributive justice), legislative history, technical explanations, case law, statements of practice, public rulings, private rulings and literature. Firstly, the facts of the case are briefly described. Secondly, the decision of the Dutch Supreme Court is presented. Subsequently, the decision is analysed and evaluated. The author has developed a benchmark to assess the Supreme Court’s decision and to come up with suggestions for improvement if necessary. The author explains that a tax treaty should be interpreted and applied consistently with the principle of good faith (legal certainty). In this context, the author also addresses the impact that the decision may have on the tax treaty negotiation process and tax treaties themselves if a contracting state wants to safeguard better the prevention of tax treaty override. The author closes with the main conclusions. <br/
