Electronically Tunable Resistorless Mixed Mode Biquad Filters
This paper presents a new realization of elec¬tronically tunable mixed mode (including transadmittance- and voltage-modes) biquad filter with single input, three outputs or three inputs, single output using voltage differ-encing transconductance amplifier (VDTA), a recently introduced active element. It can simultaneously realize standard filtering signals: low-pass, band-pass and high-pass or by selecting input terminals, it can realize all five different filtering signals: low-pass, band-pass, high-pass, band-stop and all-pass. The proposed filter circuit offers the following attractive feature: no requirement of invert-ing type input signal which is require no addition circuit, critical component matching conditions are not required in the design, the circuit parameters ω0 and Q can be set orthogonally or independently through adjusting the bias currents of the VDTAs, the proposed circuit employs two active and minimum numbers of passive components. Fur-thermore, this filter was investigated from the point of view of limited frequency range, stability conditions, effects of parasitic elements and effects of non-ideal and sensitivity. Thus, taking these effects and conditions into considera¬tion, working conditions and boundaries of this filter are determined. We also performed Monte Carlo, THD and noise analyses. Simulation results are given to confirm theoretical analyses

The Christian opinions regarding the nature of the early church councils differed whether they were an instrument of the Christian propaganda or they were the platforms for political conflicts. This paper, having taken the council of Nicaea as a case study, seeks to redress the balance between these two entirely different perceptions. The approach here is an attempt to understand the degree of the politicization of a church meeting from the aspects of convocation, the way the Church Fathers handled the business, the imperial attitudes and expectations. I have four main concerns here; the reasons behind the re-location of council from Ankyra to Nikaia, the contribution of the imperial bureau to politicization and controversies on the creeds and canons. My answers to the above problems are mainly these. The change of the site of the council was completely a political enterprise of Eusebius of Nicomedia, as he discerned the disaster the Arians would have come across. The imperial authority did not directly get involved the religious controversies, the emperor only wanted to unite the church. The early church fathers tried every method to produce a text which would test or excommunicate their rivals. However the church councils were not that bad at all, as they were also concerned the moral and religious problems of their congregations and it was through the church councils that the identity of catholic or orthodox emerged out of shadow.The Fourth-Century Church Politics, the Council of Nicaea, the Arian Controversy.
Identity and Career Experiences of Muslim Immigrant Women: The United States Context
Muslim women\u27s sense of self is at stake due to prevailing stigma and oppression toward Muslims. Employment and workplace have emerged as primary settings for encounters of negative bias, prejudice, and discrimination. Muslim immigrant women face multiple disadvantages on the basis of their various intersecting identities. The purpose of this study was to explore identity and career experiences of first generation immigrant Muslim women in American society, particularly in work and career settings. Informed by relational approaches to career development and social identity perspective, and grounded on the constructivist paradigm, a phenomenological qualitative analysis using consensual qualitative research (CQR) was conducted. Participants included 15 Muslim immigrant women with diverse ethnic backgrounds, residing in two Midwestern cities. Twelve domains emerged: Descriptive features of the self/identity, dynamic features of the self/identity, education and career experience, immigration and cross-cultural experience, stigma and oppression experience, emotional experience, family relational experience, social relational experience, home-country and home-culture experience, worldview, life challenges, and future orientation. Results suggest that Muslim immigrant women dynamically craft their selves and construct their experience in contexts defined by instability, pressure, and tension. Employment emerged as a primary context of difficult encounters, indicated by barriers of occupational mobility, social exclusion, unfair hiring outcomes, and discrimination on the basis of diverse identity markers. Contributions to the literature and implications for theory, research, and clinical work were discussed
Fonksiyonel Derecelendirilmiş İç Dış Basınca Maruz Sabit Açısal Hızla Dönen Silindirik Ve Küresel Kaplarda Elastisite Denklemlerinin Analitik Çözümleri
Konferans Bildirisi -- Teorik ve Uygulamalı Mekanik Türk Milli Komitesi, 2015Conference Paper -- Theoretical and Applied Mechanical Turkish National Committee, 2015Bu çalışmada radyal doğrultuda basit kuvvet (simple power) fonksiyonu ile derecelendirilmiş, iç ve dış basınca maruz, kalın cidarlı sabit açısal hızla dönen silindirik ve küresel basınçlı kaplarda elastisite denklemleri analitik olarak çözülmüş; radyal ve teğetsel doğrultudaki gerilmeler ile radyal doğrultudaki yer değiştirme ifadeleri tasarımcılar, mühendisler, akademisyenler ve diğer kullanıcılar için en basit ve en kullanışlı formda sunulmuştur. İç ve dış basıncın eş zamanlı olarak dönen yapıya etkimesi durumu için elde edilen kapalı çözümler, üç farklı metal-seramik çifti için grafikler halinde sunulmuştur. Ayrıca iç ve dış basınç ile sabit açısal dönme hızının da etkileri ayrık olarak ta incelenmiştir.In this study, by using the simple power material grading rule, the elasticity equations of radially functionally graded pressurized thick-walled rotating cylindrical and spherical vessels are solved analytically. Afterwards, the closed-form solutions of both the radial and hoop stresses, and the radial displacements are presented to be the simplest and most convenient form for scientists, designers, engineers, and the others. Considering three different metal-ceramic pairs, the results of the closed-form solutions are presented graphically in the case that the internal and external pressures are applied simultaneously on the rotating structure. Apart from these unique effects of both the internal and external pressures and constant angular velocity are also investigated separately

New Simple CMOS Realization of Voltage Differencing Transconductance Amplifier and Its RF Filter Application
The voltage differencing transconductance amplifier (VDTA) is a recently introduced active element for analog signal processing. However, the realization of VDTA is not given by any author yet. In this work, a new and simple CMOS realization of VDTA is presented. The proposed block has two voltage inputs and two kinds of current output, so it is functional for voltage- and transconductance-mode operation. Furthermore, VDTA exhibits two different values of transconductance so that there is no need to external resistors for VDTA based applications which seems to be a good advantage for analog circuit designer. A CMOS implementation of VDTA and a voltage-mode VDTA based filter are proposed and simulated. An application example of fourth order flat-band band-pass amplifier is given and the performance of the circuit is demonstrated by comparing the theory and simulation
