Abstract: In this study, the performances of bitumen and asphalt mixtures modified by crumb rubber (CR) were compared with those modified by styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS). The resultant mixtures were evaluated for their ...

Various types of polymers are added to bitumen in order to improve its properties under low and high temperatures. It is important to determine accurately the complex modulus of polymer-modified bitumen samples (PMBs) in ...

In this study, the effects of asphaltite and long-term aging on the mechanical properties of hot mix asphalt were investigated. The asphaltite entrained as filler at five different proportions into the hot mix asphalt ...

This study aims to model the complex modulus of base and ethylene-vinyl-acetate (EVA) modified bitumen by using Adaptive-Network-Based Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS). The complex modulus of base and EVA polymer modified ...

Metal intake abilities of Euphorbia macroclada, Verbascum cheiranthifolium Boiss and Astragalus gummifer, which are common and native throughout Turkey and similar locations, were studied in the heavily polluted Keban ...

Fluorite and fluorite-bearing Pb–Zn–Ag (Cu) deposits are quite common in granitoids and associated skarn formations that are products of Late Cretaceous–Early Paleocene magmatic intrusions into Paleozoic metamorphic rocks ...

Barium- and titanium-bearing biotites from Miocene volcanic rocks of Mezitler area, eastern Balιkesir, western Turkey are studied. The chemical composition of volcanic rocks range from andesite to rhyodacite. The iron-enrichment ...

In this study, a new approach that is closer to the real turbine without abandoning the advantages of nonlinear modeling simplicity compromising the simplicity of the nonlinear model is proposed. The purpose of the study ...

Solar radiation is an important parameter which is used in building energy simulations especially in solar heat gain calculations of windows. Although the climatic parameters are considered comprehensively in Building Energy ...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of etodolac hydrazone (EH), a new compound synthesised from etodolac, on spermatozoon quality, testicular lipid peroxidation, apoptosis and spermatozoon DNA integrity ...

Sensors are becoming ubiquitous. From almost any type of industrial applications to intelligent vehicles, smart city applications, and healthcare applications, we see a steady growth of the usage of various types of sensors. ...

In general terms, ergonomics is the conformity of human and equipment. Unconformity between human and equipment is more likely to give harm either to the equipment or to human. This conformity may go for both daily ...

Burçlar, Müslüman toplumlar içerisinde aktüel bir değere sahip olduğu için, bu konunun dinî epistemolojik temellerinin tespiti önem arz etmektedir. Bu çalışmada burçların Kur’ân, Astronomi ve Astroloji’deki mahiyetine ...

Bu çalışmada, Osmanlı Devleti’nin borçlanmasında Osmanlı Bankası’nın rolü ile dış borçların miktar ve bilesimi incelenmiştir. Osmanlı Devleti’nin yapmış olduğu dış ticaret anlaşmaları ülkeye giren sermaye miktarını günden ...

Agomelatine is an antidepressant with a novel mechanism of action. It is a melatonergic agonist for MT1 and MT2 receptors and a serotonin (5-HT2C) receptor antagonist. Agomelatine has been suggested not to have adverse ...

The aim of this study was to investigate whether pomegranate juice (PJ) consumption has an ameliorating effect on carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced sperm damages and testicular apoptosis associated with the oxidative ...

Amaç. Bu araştırma hemşirelerin hastane enfeksiyonlarını önlemeye ilişkin bilgi düzeylerinin belirlenmesi amacıyla tanımlayıcı olarak yapılmıştır. Materyal ve Metot. Araştırmanın evrenini Elazığ Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi ...

We report a study of the removal of Cr(III) from aqueous solutions by depectinated sugar beet pulp (DSBP) carried out at different initial concentration of Cr(III), pH and temperature of solution, particle size and adsorbent ...

Sugar beet pulp was converted into effective copper sorption material by treating subsequently with NaOH and citric acid. Compared with the untreated sugar beet pulp, the cation exchange capacity of the modified sugar beet ...

As(V) removal by using liquid phase of red mud (LPRM) is reported in this article. The experimental section includes characterization of LPRM, as well as As(V) removal from arsenical aqueous solution mixed with LPRM by ...

Heat treatment and acid treatment methods have been tested on red mud to increase its arsenic adsorption capability. The results indicate that the adsorptive capacity of red mud can be increased by acid treatment. This ...
