Gaz Türbini Pallerindeki Akış Ayrılmasına İz Ve Pürüzlülük Etkilerinin DNS Yöntemiyle İncelenmesi

Konferans Bildirisi -- Teorik ve Uygulamalı Mekanik Türk Milli Komitesi, 2013Conference Paper -- Theoretical and Applied Mechanical Turkish National Committee, 2013Bu çalışmada, düşük-basınçlı gaz türbini pallerinin emme yüzeyindeki akışa benzer, düz bir levhada ters-basınç etkisiyle oluşan laminer ayrılma bölgesine, yüzey pürüzlülüğünün ve bir önceki kanadın ardizinin etkisi direk sayısal çözümleme yöntemi ile incelenmiştir. İz ve pürüzlülük etkilerinin birlikte incelendiği durum için alınan sonuçlara göre laminar ayrılma baloncuklarının boyutlarında düşüş olduğu görülmektedir. Fakat, bu iki etkinin sınır tabaka gelişimine etkisi iz ve pürüzlülüğün ayrı ayrı etkilerinin yanında ihmal edilecek kadar düşük kaldığı görülmektedir.

For the case of the combined effects of surface roughness and wake passing frequency a decrease is observed in the size of the laminar separated bubble. However, the combined effects of the surface roughness and wake passing frequency to the development of the boundary layer is negligible compared to the individual effects of surface roughness and wake passing frequency.

Exact Solutions of a (2+1)-Dimensional Nonlinear Klein-Gordon Equation

The purpose of this paper is to present a class of particular solutions of a C(2,1) conformally invariant nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation by symmetry reduction. Using the subgroups of similitude group reduced ordinary differential equations of second order and their solutions by a singularity analysis are classified. In particular, it has been shown that whenever they have the Painlev\'e property, they can be transformed to standard forms by Moebius transformations of dependent variable and arbitrary smooth transformations of independent variable whose solutions, depending on the values of parameters, are expressible in terms of either elementary functions or Jacobi elliptic functions.Comment: 16 pages, no figures, revised versio

Palaeotethys-related sediments of the Karaburun Peninsula, western Turkey: constraints on provenance and stratigraphy from detrital zircon geochronology

Detrital zircon U–Pb geochronology of 15 Late Palaeozoic to Early Mesozoic siliciclastic sandstones from the Karaburun Peninsula in western Turkey determines maximum sedimentation ages, identifies possible source areas, and anchors the study area within the Palaeotethyan realm. Siliciclastic sandstones yielded ages from Triassic to Archean with major input from Palaeozoic to Neoproterozoic sources and very few Mesoproterozoic zircons. The youngest age groups set the new limit of the maximum depositional ages to Late Carboniferous–Early Permian for the Küçükbahçe and Dikendağı formations. Detrital zircons from Triassic sandstones are mainly Neoproterozoic and Palaeozoic in age. Zircons from the Scythian–Anisian Gerence Formation are predominantly Devonian and Carboniferous in age, while also Permian and Triassic zircon grains occur in the Carnian–Rhaetian Güvercinlik Formation. According to the zircon age populations and the data available from possible source regions, the Karaburun siliciclastic sediments, with the exception of two samples from the Dikendağı Formation, record sediment supply from units located at the southern margin of Eurasia during Late Palaeozoic and Early Mesozoic times. This interpretation is in agreement with palaeotectonic reconstructions for the closely related Greek islands of Chios and Inousses. The presence of Devonian accompanied by Carboniferous zircons in some of the Karaburun samples reveals similarities with Karakaya Complex sandstones of the Sakarya Zone in NW Turkey

Nonlinear Evolution Equations Invariant Under Schroedinger Group in three-dimensional Space-time

A classification of all possible realizations of the Galilei, Galilei-similitude and Schroedinger Lie algebras in three-dimensional space-time in terms of vector fields under the action of the group of local diffeomorphisms of the space \R^3\times\C is presented. Using this result a variety of general second order evolution equations invariant under the corresponding groups are constructed and their physical significance are discussed

Evolution of the Palaeotethys in the Eastern Mediterranean: A multi-method approach to unravel the age, provenance and tectonic setting of the Upper Palaeozoic Konya Complex and its Mesozoic cover sequence (south-central Turkey)

Thirteen siliciclastic sediments from the Upper Palaeozoic Konya Complex and its Mesozoic cover were studied by a multi-method approach combining thin-section petrography, bulk-rock geochemistry, mineral chemistry of rutile, and U–Pb geochronology of detrital zircons. Provenance sensitive data of samples from the Upper Palaeozoic Halıcı Formation indicate sediment supply from mainly low- to medium-grade metamorphosed sedimentary rocks of felsic character, while contribution from volcanic rocks was rare. The detrital zircon record of sediments from the Halıcı Formation documents sediment supply from different sources and excludes a similar provenance. Some samples show great similarities with Palaeozoic sandstones from the cover sequence of the Saharan Metacraton and the Arabian–Nubian Shield, while the other samples indicate a provenance that must be sought in units with a southern Eurasian affinity. The upper limit for sediment deposition in the Halıcı Formation is mostly constrained by Early Palaeozoic zircon populations, however, sediment accumulation in Pennsylvanian–Cisuralian time is more likely, contemporaneously with the Upper Palaeozoic succession on the Karaburun Peninsula (western Turkey). The provenance of sediments from the Upper Triassic Ardıçlı Formation remains enigmatic, but the source should be sought nonetheless in units close to the depositional site. In any case, detrital zircon age spectra and compositional data exclude recycling of underlying rock units (i.e. Halıcı Formation). Overall, our new provenance data reveal great similarities between the Konya Complex and comparable units (Chios, Karaburun) but also highlight distinct differences in terms of sediment composition and provenance

Disseminated Fusarium oxysporum Infection in Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis

Abstract : The portal of entry of disseminated Fusarium spp. infections is still not clearly defined. We report on a disseminated Fusarium oxysporum infection occurring during a long period of severe neutropenia in a child with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. A nasogastric feeding tube was the possible source of entry of the fungu

Primary Molar Pulpotomies with Different Hemorrhage Control Agents and Base Materials: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Objective: To evaluate the clinical and radiographical success of primary molar pulpotomies which used 15.5% ferric sulfate (FS) or 1.25% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) for hemostasis and zinc oxide-eugenol (ZOE) and calcium hydroxide (CH) pastes as base materials. Methods: In 29 healthy children, 80 primary molars were randomly allocated to one of the study groups: Group 1: FS-ZOE, Group 2: FS-CH, Group 3: NaOCl-ZOE, and Group 4: NaOCl-CH. After hemostasis with the respective solutions, pulp stumps and floor of the pulp chambers were covered with either ZOE or CH pastes. All teeth were restored with stainless steel crowns. Follow-up examinations were carried out at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months. Results: One tooth in Group 1 and two teeth in Group 4 were extracted because of pain and periapial pathosis at sixth month. After 12 months, clinical success rates of pulpotomies in Groups 1-4 were 95%, 100%, 100%, and 89.5%, respectively. The differences were not significant (P = 0.548). Radiographic success rates for Groups 1-4 were 80%, 88.9%, 78.9%, and 84.2%, respectively. No statistically significant difference was found (P = 0.968). Pain on percussion was the most observed clinical finding. However, internal root resorption was the most common radiological finding and it was observed significantly more in mandibular primary molars (P \u3c 0.05). Conclusion: Both ZOE and CH can be preferred as base materials after hemostasis achieved by the use of 15.5% FS or 1.25% NaOCl in primary tooth pulpotomy

Cytomegalovirus myelitis in perinatally acquired HIV

A 7 year old child perinatally infected with HIV who died from progressive muscular paralysis and central nervous respiratory failure is described. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) prophylaxis with a special intravenous CMV hyper-immunoglobulin had been successfully conducted for more than four years. Macroscopic and microscopic immunohistochemical examination of the spinal cord revealed a diffuse CMV infiltration of the entire myelon. CMV infected cells were identified as astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, neurons, macrophages, ependymal, endothelial, and Schwann cells. Other organs had no signs of CMV infection. Central nervous spinal CMV infection was most probably due to insufficient penetration of the blood-brain barrier by the CMV hyper-immunoglobulin. In suspicious cases early spinal magnetic resonance imaging (1.5 tesla) combined with an examination of urine and cerebrospinal fluid for CMV is recommended

Provenance and tectonic setting of Carboniferous–Triassic sandstones from the Karaburun Peninsula, western Turkey: A multi-method approach with implications for the Palaeotethys evolution

Carboniferous–Triassic siliciclastic sediments of the Karaburun Peninsula in western Turkey were studied to unravel their provenance and the tectonic setting of depositional basins within the Palaeotethyan realm. A set of complementary techniques including petrography, bulk-rock geochemistry and single-grain analysis of rutile, garnet and chrome spinel were applied to provide a diverse dataset for testing existing palaeotectonic models using both, established and recently published diagrams. We show that tectonic discrimination diagrams of siliciclastic sediments based on major and trace element whole-rock geochemical data do yield ambiguous results and are only partly in accordance with regional geological events. Chondrite-normalised REE patterns of Upper Palaeozoic samples are characterised by enrichment of LREE and a flat trend towards HREE. The degree of fractionation allows for discrimination between sandstones of Karaburun (LaN/YbN = 8.00–14.79) and adjacent Greek islands of Chios (5.82–9.23) and Inousses (7.40–9.95). Petrographic observations and compositional data from single-grain analysis indicate significant supply from low- to medium-grade metamorphic rocks of generally felsic character and minor input of (ultra)mafic detritus. Detrital chrome spinels in the Lower Triassic Gerence Formation are different in composition and shape compared to chrome spinels in Carboniferous–Permian sandstones. They were derived from a very proximal source and exhibit variable, but generally high Cr- and Mg-numbers, consistent with chrome spinels from podiform chromitites that have been formed in an intra-oceanic back-arc setting above a supra-subduction zone. We conclude that most of the Carboniferous–Triassic successions were deposited along the southern active margin of Eurasia in a continental-arc environment during the time period when Palaeotethys diminished in size and finally vanished. Large volumes of detritus were probably derived from rock units located in the present-day Balkan region and the Sakarya Zone, or equivalent successions that are not present anymore
