Odunun işlenmesinde yüzey pürüzlülüğü üzerine etkili faktörler
Mobilya ve dekorasyon endüstrisinde kullanılan ahşap ürünlerin yüzey pürüzlülüğünün ölçülmesi son ürünün kalitesinin tespit edilmesi bakımından oldukça önemlidir. Yüzey pürüzlülüğü odun ürünlerin estetikliğini ve pazarlanma aşamasında müşteri talebini önemli ölçüde etkilemektedir. Bununla beraber, odunun yüzey pürüzlülüğünün odun yüzey işlemlerinin uygulanmasında adezyon direnci üzerine önemli bir etkiye sahip olduğu için tespit edilmesi gerekir. Ancak, yüzey pürüzlülüğünün belirlenmesi üzerine ilk çalışmalar metal endüstrisi üzerine yoğunlaşmıştır. Odunun yüzey pürüzlülüğünün belirlenmesi konusundaki çalışmalar ise 20. yüzyılın ortalarına dayanmaktadır. Bu amaçla çeşitli pürüzlülük ölçüm yöntemleri geliştirilmiştir. Bu araştırmada, odun yüzey pürüzlülüğünün önemi, yüzey pürüzlülüğü üzerine etkili olan faktörler, yüzey pürüzlülüğü ölçüm yöntemleri ve yüzey pürüzlülüğünün belirlenmesinde kullanılan parametreler araştırıldı.

Análisis comparativo del impacto, de la segregación de los datos por género, en los protocolos de investigación de fisiología reproductiva y cardio-respiratoria
Es un hecho conocido que el dimorfismo sexual se presenta en la mayoría de las
especies animales. Las diferencias que esto conlleva, tienen una base genética que sustenta
características físicas propias de machos o hembras. Conocido esto, es evidente la necesidad de
determinar la incidencia genérica en el funcionamiento de cualquier organismo. Sin embargo, el
presente análisis, ha permitido comprobar que, la inclusión en la segregación de los resultados
por género en estudios de Bio-Medicina (clínicos y pre-clínicos) aún no es algo generalizado.
Para ello, se han revisado y combinado los resultados de un conjunto de estudios (fechados
entre 2011 y 2017) escogiéndose dos áreas (en cuyas fisio-patologías se acepte diferente grado
de impacto del género): aparato reproductivo y el sistema cardio-respiratorio. Los resultados
obtenidos confirman la necesidad de concienciar a la comunidad científica de la importancia de
la inclusión de la variable “género” en este tipo de estudios.It is a known fact that sexual dimorphism occurs in most animal species. The differences that this
entails have a genetic basis that supports physical characteristics of males or females. Once this
is known, the need to determine the generic incidence in the functioning of any organism is
evident. However, the present analysis has shown that inclusion in the segregation of results by
gender in Bio-Medicine studies (clinical and pre-clinical) is not yet widespread. For that, the
results of a series of studies (dated between 2011 and 2017) have been reviewed and combined,
choosing two areas (in whose physio-pathologies a different degree of gender impact is
accepted): reproductive system and the cardio-respiratory system. The results obtained confirm
the need to make the scientific community aware of the importance of including the gender
variable in this type of studies
The influence of raw material growth region, anatomical structure and chemical composition of wood on the quality properties of particleboards
In the present study, the impact of raw material grown region on the physical, mechanical, surface properties and formaldehyde emission of the particleboard was investigated. Ailanthus altissima wood grown in Trabzon had longer fiber length and thicker fiber and trachea cell wall than those of the wood grown in Artvin. The highest amounts of lignin, ash, condensed tannin and solubility values were found in wood grown in Artvin. Ailanthus altissima wood grown in Trabzon had higher amounts of cellulose and hemicellulose than those of the wood grown in Artvin. Particleboards made from wood grown in Artvin had worse surface quality and mechanical strength properties than those of panels made from wood grown in Trabzon. On the other hand, the results showed that particleboards produced from wood grown in Artvin had lower thickness swelling and formaldehyde emision values than those of the panels produced from wood grown in Trabzon
Application of artificial neural networks for predicting tensile index and brightness in bleaching pulp
The purpose of this study was to develop artificial neural network (ANN) models for predicting the effects of wood species, sodium perborate tetrahydrate (SPBTH) ratio, time, and beating degree on tensile index andbrightness in bleaching pulp. Unbleached kraft-AQ bamboo and poplar pulps were exposed to first stage oxygen delignification for bleaching under 0,5 MPa, 3% NaOH and 12% consistency conditions. SPBTH bleaching was then carried out as the final stage. SPBTH bleached pulp was next beaten using two different degrees (55 SR° and 65 SR°). Tensile index and brightness data for training, validation and testing of the models were elicited from these experimental investigations. The models were established using the resulting data. The lowest R2 value was 0,98 among training, testing and validation data sets in the prediction of both tensile index and brightness. The networks therefore explain at least 98% of the experimental data for all data sets. The results indicate that ANN is a useful and effective tool for predicting tensile index and brightness. Thisstudy thus describes a novel and alternative approach to predicting tensile index and brightness in bleaching pulp compared to the literature
Multivarijatni kontrolni dijagram Hotelling T2 za praćenje nekih svojstava kvalitete u proizvodnji ploča vlaknatica srednje gustoće
Statistical process control tools are of great importance in terms of controlling manufacturing processes and improving product quality. In this study, the manufacturing process of medium density fiberboards manufactured in a company operating in the forest products industry was monitored by using multivariate Hotelling T2 statistical process control chart in terms of some quality characteristics. The T2 values of the signals detected by the Hotelling T2 control chart were also decomposed. By the decomposition of T2 values, it was determined which quality characteristics contributed more to each signal. It was seen that the process was not in control for Hotelling T2 control chart, which reveals the shift level in the mean of quality characteristics. As a result, the application of Hotelling T2 allowed fast detection of possible abnormalities in the process. The decomposition of T2 values successfully revealed which quality characteristics contributed significantly to the signals. Besides, it was concluded that, for monitoring, the Hotelling T2 chart was able to employ simultaneously different quality characteristics of medium density fiberboard. The current application study also contributed to the emergence of the root causes of the large shifts in the process. In conclusion, the findings of the study enabled the company to ensure the process stability and to facilitate decision-making on actions to be taken for quality improvement.Statistički alati za praćenje procesa vrlo su važni za kontrolu proizvodnih procesa i poboljšanje kvalitete proizvoda.

Consumer preferences for flooring in Turkey in terms of purchasing and use
In this study, consumer preferences for flooring in terms of purchasing and use, were investigated, as well as consumer attitudes and the reasons for preferences for a particular product, and whether consumer behaviour varied according to gender; age, level of education, occupation and size of household. The study was based on a face-to-face interview of 1005 people throughout Turkey. The data obtained from the survey was analyzed using the statistical package SPSS 19.0 for Windows. According to the results of the study, it is possible to say that the customers preferred flooring which was easy to assemble, with good heat and sound insulation, resistant to physical and mechanical damage, both environmentally- and human-friendlyand aesthetically pleasing. Manufacturers should therefore endeavour to meet these expectations by obtaining positive and negative feedback from users of flooring. In conclusion, it was determined that flooring preference, usage, expectations and consumer complaints may differ according to gender, age, level of education, income level, household size and occupation. This study fills an important gap regarding the investigation of consumer preferences for flooring in terms of purchasing and use in Turkey
