Seramik Atık İlaveli Hafifletilmiş Köpük Betonlar
Authors: KUNDURACI Nazım
Published: July 2023

Konutlarda ve yapılarda dayanım, ısıl iletkenlik, enerjiden tasarruf için beton kullanılır. Beton kullanım alanına göre belirli özelliklere sahiptir. Yapılarda kullanılan betonun yoğunluklarının hafif olması buna bağlı olarak dayanımlarının belirli standartlarda olması ve ısıl ve ses iletkenliklerinin yüksek olması istenir. Köpük beton: içerisinde su, çimento ve özel agregaların (uçucu kül, ponza, perlit, bims, bazalt vb.) bulunduğu karışımlardan oluşan ve bünyesinde hacimce %75-80 oranında birbirinden ayrı hava boşluklarının olduğu gözenekli betona köpük beton denir. Gözenekli bir yapıda bulunmasından dolayı hem hafif hem de ısıl iletim katsayısı düşük malzemelerdir. Köpük beton kullanım alanları; blok tuğla, duvar panel üretimi, şap üretimi, tünel ve kuyularda dolgu amaçlı hafif beton, ısı yalıtımlı hafif kiremit ve seramik üretimi vb. alanlarda kullanılır. Köpük beton literatürde portland çimento ve su karışımına köpükleştirici ilave edilerek üretimi sağlanır. Üretilen köpük beton uygulama alanına göre kalıplara dökülerek şekillendirilir ve prizlenme süresi tamamlanınca üretim tamamlanır. Bu projede köpük beton reçetesine geri dönüştürülmüş seramik atık malzemeleri girilerek üretim sağlanmıştır. Seramik atıklar geri dönüşümü zor malzemelerdir. Çeşitli kırma-öğütme işlemlerine tabi tutulan atıklar 200mikron altına indirilmiştir. Reçeteye belirli oranlarda portland çimentosu yerine seramik atık katılarak üretim sağlanmıştır. Üretilen seramik atıklı köpük beton ile çevre dostu, %10 daha ekonomik, dayanımı yüksek, ses ve ısıl iletkenliği yüksek, % 10 daha hafif köpük beton geliştirilmiştir. Ürettiğimiz köpük beton; blok tuğla, duvar-panel üretiminde, şap üretiminde vb. alanlarda kullanılabilir.
A Parallel Architecture for Improving the Performance of the Kriging Algorithm
Authors: TAMER Özgür , GENÇ Ahmet Esat
Published: July 2023

Estimating missing data values by using interpolation algorithms is a well-known technique. Kriging is an optimized interpolation method based on regression against evaluated values from the surrounding observation points, weighted according to spatially varying values according to the covariance between these observation points. It has been widely used for estimating the missing geological data of the areas based on the measurements in close proximity. In this work we use the Kriging to recover the missing pixels of digital images. Even though Kriging is considered as successful on estimating the missing pixels, the algorithm has a high operation load, causing delays especially for live streaming videos. In this paper we propose a parallel architecture to improve the performance and reduce the operation time of the Kriging Algorithm for estimating the missing pixels. The proposed method can be applied on Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) and considerable performance improvement have been achieved depending on the number of logic blocks available inside the FPGA.

Günümüzün en önemli yapı malzemelerinden biri olan betonun farklı özel çeşitleri bulunmaktadır. Bunlardan biride hafif betonlardır. Hafif betonlar (HB) üzerinde yapılan çalışmalarla birim ağırlıkları azaltılmakta ve üretilen betonlara ultra hafif beton denilmektedir (UHB). Birim ağırlıkları azaltılmaya çalışılırken basınç dayanımı, ses emme özelliği, ısıl iletkenlikleri, yangına ve dona dayanıklılıkları gibi özellikleri iyileştirilmeye çalışılmaktadır. Ultra hafif betonların (UHB) üretiminde kullanılan agregalarda zamanla değişime uğramaktadır. Atık malzemelerin değerlendirilerek sürdürülebilir ve doğa dostu UHB çalışmaları devam etmektedir. Doğal kaynakların kullanılması yerine atıkların değerlendirilerek kullanılması UHB’lere karşı ilginin ve talebin artmasını sağlamaktadır. Böylece UHB’lerin ekonomik, çevreci ve sürdürülebilirliği dikkat çekmektedir. Kullanılan agregaların türlerine ve boyutlarına göre UHB’ler sadece binalarda ısı ve ses yalıtım malzemesi olarak kullanılmasının yanı sıra dayanım özellikleri arttırılarak yapının kendi yükünü azaltarak deprem kuvvetlerinin etkilerini de azaltması amaçlanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada literatür kaynakları incelenerek UHB’lerle ilgili son gelişmeler incelenmiştir. UHB’ler arasında karşılaştırmalar yapılmakla birlikte avantaj ve dezavantajları değerlendirilmiştir.

What is the Way Allah's Word Manifests Itself in Yemeni Arabic?
Authors: Al-Nahdi Yousef Ali Ahmed Saleh , Patriani Yenni , Shuo Zhao , Si Fuzhen
Published: July 2023

In this paper, the author shows how ‘Allah’ is used in daily Yemeni Arabic conversations. The term Allah has a variety of meanings in Yemeni Arabic, as it does in the Arab world, reflecting the belief that Allah alone is in charge of all the affairs, grants blessings, and either encourages or criticizes someone to do something. The result of this is that the term Allah appears in several expressions when the term is part of a sentence containing the word. For example, there are expressions that have over one meaning, such as Allah alaik, which signifies two literal meanings. The word Allah can also be found in other expressions, but with entirely different meanings, including moaning or aiming for guidance. I conducted a study looking at the occurrences of social life contact, reactions, and the cultural influence of native Yemenis. The rest of this paper explores some of the other most common expressions used in Yemeni society, which shows the word is heavily influenced by religion and culture in its use in Yemeni society.

Estimation of correlation coefficients in 15 parental genotypes revealed positive influence of boll weight, plant height, number of bolls per plant and days to maturity on seed cotton yield. In hybrids, number of bolls per plant and lint index were the most important characters which influenced the yield directly or indirectly. All the characters except days to first boll bursting and seed index had significant and positive correlation with seed cotton yield at the genotypic and phenotypic levels in parents. In hybrids, plant height, number of sympodia per plant, number of bolls per plant and boll weight had positive association with seed cotton yield at both the levels. In parents, colour of the lint had a positive correlation with fibre fineness and ginning outturn at the genotypic level while it was negatively correlated with bundle strength both at genotypic and phenotypic level. The colour of lint had negative relationship with 2.5 per cent span length and bundle strength in the hybrids, the respective genotypic and phenotypic correlation coefficients being negative. The association analysis showed the necessity for employing special techniques to break the linkage between lint colour and fibre quality in the breeding programme to evolve colour cotton varieties.

Field experiments were conducted in low lands at Tamil Nadu Rice Research Institute, Aduthurai, Tamil Nadu for two years (1985-87) to study the change in soil nutrient status due to the rice based cropping systems in Cauvery delta zone. The inclusion of legume in the cropping systems resulted in higher soil nitrogen (+95.2 kg ha) and higher phosphorus uptake (13.4 per cent increase). As that of legume, cotton in the systems too resulted in higher soil available nitrogen ( +117.1 kg ha¹) which might be because of lesser uptake by cotton crop or higher addition of residues by cotton or both. The systems rice-rice-cotton andrice-cotton-cotton second flush possessing cotton as components crop found to leave more phosphorus into the soil because of mining/pumping of phosphorus from deeper soil zone with its deep root system. The systems involving pulses left higher potassium in the soil because of comparatively lesser uptake of potassium by these component crops.

The physiological phenomena of yield barriers in rust resistant groundnut genotypes were studied using growth analysis as a tool. Ten genotypes including four susceptible, three each from partial resistant and resistant categories were subjected for the study. Higher CGR, LAR and LAI during the pod filling and maturity stages in resistant and partially resistant genotypes indicated more partitioning of dry matter to leaf tissues rather than to pods, resulting in poor development of pods and kernels. The evolution of partially resistant varieties in preference to completely resistant ones for cultivation in endemic areas will be more useful.

Genetic diversity in fodder pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum) was studied with 28 genotypes of different origin. The genotypes could be grouped into 5 distinct clusters. The clustering pattern showed that geographic diversity is not an index of genetic diversity. Crude protein content, leaf weight and dry matter content were important contributors to the divergence. On the basis of genetic distance and cluster mean values, nine genotypes have been identified for hybridisation and selection for the desirable traits.
