EAF Ladle Steel Slag as a Geo-Material: Compaction and Shear Strength Characteristics
No full textİrem Zeynep Yıldırım (MEF Author)##nofulltext##The numerous issues associated with the excess steel slag that is disposed of in landfills every year can be reduced by using it as a geo-material. This paper provides the results of laboratory tests (i.e., sieve, hydrometer, specific gravity, compaction, compaction-particle degradation, and large-scale direct shear with a box size of 30.5 x 30.5 x 20 cm) performed on electric-arc-furnace ladle [EAF(L)] steel slag from a mini-mill in Indiana. Based on standard proctor test results, the maximum dry unit weight values of the EAF(L) steel slag were in the 16.8-to-20 kN/m(3) range at the optimum moisture contents of 11-13%. The results of the large-scale direct shear tests performed on EAF(L) steel slag, compacted at 95-100% relative compaction and sheared with normal stress ranging from 50 to 300 kPa, showed that it has excellent frictional characteristics, with friction angles between 40 and 45 degrees. Based on the results from this study, due to its shear strength characteristics, EAF(L) steel slag has the potential to be utilized as a geo-material to improve the shear strength of various marginal soils.WOS:0004370007000122-s2.0-85048741251Conference Proceedings Citation Index- ScienceProceedings PaperMartYÖK - 2017-1
That Uncertain Voice:Voice-as-Skin
No full textBased on Zeynep Bulut’s book, Building a Voice: Sound, Surface, Skin (Goldsmiths Press, 2025), this presentation and discussion will explore how voice can be imagined as skin and what such a conception offers in times of crisis and uncertainties. Drawing on the notions and practices of embodied voice in experimental music and participatory media art, the event will revisit individual, collective, and multi-sensory processes of voice-making in everyday life. In so doing, it will consider the conception of a voice, one that is both individual and anonymous, and one that functions like a skin, a multi-sensory interface and surface that both connects and differentiates bodies of all kinds without being limited to discursive labels of language. Through the notion of voice-as-skin, this book presentation and discussion will reflect on the ethical implications and significance of voice-making processes for global issues like environmental crisis and artificial intelligence, while also questioning rushed forms of communication and presumed understandings of empathy. Zeynep Bulut is a voice and sound theorist. She is a lecturer in Music at SARC, Centre for Interdisciplinary Research in Sound and Music, at Queen’s University Belfast. Her work theorises the emergence, embodiment and mediation of voice as skin. She is the author of Building a Voice: Sound, Surface, Skin (Goldsmiths Press, 2025). Her articles have appeared in various volumes and journals including The Oxford Handbook of Sound Art, Perspectives of New Music, Postmodern Culture, and Music and Politics. She is project lead for the research platform Music, Arts, Health, and Environment, supported by the Economic and Social Research Council’s Impact Acceleration Account at QUB. Alongside her scholarly work, she has also exhibited sound works, composed and performed vocal pieces for concert, video, and theater, and released two singles. Her composer profile has been featured by British Music Collection. She is a certified practitioner of Deep Listening. Brandon LaBelle is an artist, writer, theorist, and artistic director of The Listening Biennial. His work focuses on questions of agency, community, pirate culture, and poetics, which results in a range of collaborative and extra-institutional initiatives, including: Communities in Movement (2019-23), The Living School (with South London Gallery, 2014-16), Oficina de Autonomia (2017–), The Imaginary Republic (2014–19), Dirty Ear Forum (2013-22), Surface Tension (2003-08), and Beyond Music Sound Festival (1998-2002). In 1995, he founded Errant Bodies Press, an independent publishing project supporting work in sound art and studies, performance and poetics, artistic research and contemporary political thought. His publications include: Poetics of Listening (2025), Acoustic Justice (2021), The Other Citizen (2020), Sonic Agency (2018), Lexicon of the Mouth (2014), Acoustic Territories (2010, 2019), and Background Noise (2006, 2015). Holger Schulze is a full professor of musicology at the University of Copenhagen and the principal investigator at the Sound Studies Lab. His sonic anthropology explores how sounds and listening in the 21st century stabilise, disrupt, and permeate everyday life. Artistic practices and everyday objects are both of equal concern to his sonic critique. He is currently writing a book on meme music and working on The Bloomsbury Encyclopedia of Sound Studies in three volumes (as one of three editors-in-chief with Jennifer Stoever and Michael Bull), as well as The Bloomsbury Handbook of Sound in Museums (with Alcina Cortez, Gabriele Rossi Rognoni, and Eric de Visscher). His publications include: The Bloomsbury Handbook of the Anthropology of Sound (2021, ed.), Sonic Fiction (2020), The Sonic Persona (2018) and Sound as Popular Culture. A Research Companion (2016, co-ed. with Jens Gerrit Papenburg).00:00 Introduction by Christoph F. E. Holzhey04:36 Talk by Zeynep Bulut36:00 Discussio
Developing authentic problems through lived experiences in nature
No full textThis study's main objective is to develop a theoretical and ontological basis for experimentation in contact with the real life, oriented to physics education. Physics is built upon the observation of nature, where our experience provides opportunity to deal with science in natural environment to those learners who have background in the very basics and essentials of physics. Physics in Nature course includes visiting and camping experiences situated in nature and organizing camp with educational purposes. The course has been integrated with indoor and outdoor settings interactively and the authentic problems, which have been taken from outdoor settings, have been brought into the class without well-defined structure (Ill-structured problems). Within the period of ten years, there were plethora of events and problems that would provide sufficient material for many researchers. Because every problem is an event and has a story. The philosophical event concept of Deleuze and Guattari has been used in the events of Physics in Nature courses. Post-qualitative research methodology has been used in order to put forward how to construct the relation between physics and nature and become the main problem in the physics in nature, thereby it has been the basis of the course and our academic researc
Woman in Zeynep Kaçar’s theater works
No full textEdebiyatımıza tiyatroları ile farklı bir soluk getiren Zeynep Kaçar, kadını ve kadın sorunlarını oyunlarında öne çıkaran bir yazardır. Eserlerindeki genel temayı kentsel ve kırsal olmak üzere iki gruba ayıran yazar, her yaşamdan kadına temas eder. Oyunlarında, farklı hayatlardan kadın temsiliyetini, hayatın genelinde pek çok kadında görülen değersizlik hissini ve çoğu kez yok sayılan kadın imajını ele alır. Oyunları kadının toplum içindeki yeri ve önemi ile ilgili birçok problemi gözler önüne serer. Yazarın söz konusu kadın temini işleyen oyunlarının genel amacı kadını öteki olarak nitelendirmeden, başkalaştırmadan hayatın içine yerleştirmektir. İncelenen tiyatro eserleri ışığında çalışmanın amacı, Zeynep Kaçar’ın tiyatrolarını, “başta Türk kadını olmak üzere dünyadaki farklı milliyetlere mensup bütün kadınların özgür hayat mücadelesinin” bir parçası olarak okumak ve bu eksende değerlendirmek, yorumlamaktır. Bu çalışmada Zeynep Kaçar’ın tiyatro eserlerindeki kadın meselesi üzerinde durulmuştur. Çalışmanın birinci bölümünde; tiyatro teriminden ve dram sanatından bahsedilmiştir. Daha sonra toplumcu gerçekçilik ve edebiyat konusuna geçilmiş, tiyatronun, edebiyat ve toplumcu gerçekçilik anlayışı içerisinde kendisine nasıl bir yer edindiği ve nasıl şekilde değerlendirildiği açıklanmaya çalışılmıştır. Toplumsal meseleler ekseninde feminizm konusuna ışık tutulmuş, Türk edebiyatında feminist tiyatronun yeri ile ilgili bilgiler verilmiştir. “Tiyatro, toplumsal gerçeklik ve feminizm” konularını irdeleyen birinci bölümün ardından ikinci bölümde ise feminist yazar Zeynep Kaçar’ın hayatı, sanatı, edebi kişiliği, yazarlığa başlama serüveni, oyunlarındaki kadın meselesine bakışı ve eserlerine ait bilgiler aktarılmıştır. Üçüncü bölümde; basılı tiyatro eserlerindeki kadın konusu, eserlerde kadının konumlandırılışı ve hikâyenin tematik odak noktası dikkate alınarak çeşitli başlıklara ayrılmıştır. Bu başlıklar altında yazarın erkek hegemonyasına karşı duruşu, ataerkil sistemin kadına yüklediği toplumsal norm, kabul ve kalıp sınırlamaları dahilinde kadının var olma biçimi, özgür hayat mücadelesi gibi evrensel meseleler incelenmiştir.Zeynep Kaçar, who brought a new breath to our litarature with her plays, is a writer who highlights women and women’s issues. The general theme of her works revolves around women, who are separated into two groups, urban and rural. In her plays, she addresses women’s representation from different lives, the sense of inequality frequently encountered in life, and the marginalization of women. Her plays highlight many issues related to the place and importance of women in society. The general aim of her plays that deal with women’s voices and roles is to place women at the center of life without marginalizing or stereotyping them as “the other”. The purpose of this study is to examine Zeynep Kaçar’s plays in light of theater works and to read “the struggle of women from all ethnic backgrounds, especially Turkish women, for a free life” as a whole. This research focuses on how women’s issues are handled in Kaçar’s plays. The first section of the study explains the concept of theater and touches upon the relationship between reality and theater. Later, the concept of social reality and theater. Later, the consept of social reality is discussed, and theater is explained within the framework of social realty: how it is gained and how it is evaluated. This is followed by an evaluation of how women’s issues shed light on the concept of feminism in Zeynep Kaçar’s plays. The first part of the study examines “Theater, Social Reality, and Feminism”in general, followed by an analysis of Zeynep Kaçar’s life, art identity, and plays. The second part interprets women’s roles and perspectives on women in her works. In the third part, specific plays by the author are discussed in detail, examining the social issues that shape the position of women and the problems they face
Selective 5-HT7 receptor agonists LP 44 and LP 211 elicit an analgesic effect on formalin-induced orofacial pain in mice
No full textThe most recently identified serotonin (5-HT) receptor is the 5-HT7 receptor. The antinociceptive effects of a 5-HT7 receptor agonist have been shown in neuropathic and inflammatory animal models of pain. A recent study demonstrated the functional expression of 5-HT7 receptors in the substantia gelatinosa (SG) of the trigeminalsubnucleus caudalis, which receives and processes orofacial nociceptive inputs. Objective To investigate the antinociceptive effects of pharmacological activation of 5-HT7 receptors on orofacial pain in mice. Material and Methods Nociception was evaluated by using an orofacial formalin test in male Balb-C mice. Selective 5-HT7 receptor agonists, LP 44 and LP 211 (1, 5, and 10 mg/kg), were given intraperitoneally 30 min prior to a formalin injection. A bolus of 10 μl of 4% subcutaneous formalin was injected into the upper lip of mice and facial grooming behaviors were monitored. The behavioral responses consisted of two distinct periods, the early phase corresponding to acute pain (Phase I: 0–12 min) and the late phase (Phase II: 12–30 min). Results LP 44 and LP 211 (1, 5, and 10 mg/kg) produced an analgesic effect with reductions in face rubbing time in both Phase I and Phase II of the formalin test. Conclusion Our results suggest that 5-HT7 receptor agonists may be promising analgesic drugs in the treatment of orofacial pain

Zeynep Çelik, About Antiquities: Politics of Archaeology in the Ottoman Empire
No full textAbout antiquities is a comparative, cross-cultural study regarding the history of archaeology, centred in the last years of the Ottoman Empire, focused on questions such as: who owns antiquity and what are the good and bad uses of antiquities. It surely is a worthy lecture, not only because the author of the book, Zeynep Çelik, is probably one of the scholars who better knows the topic, but also because, currently, the heritage’s destructions by DAESH have increased the importance of the ques..
