OSMANLI MİMARLIK ÖRGÜTLENMESİNDE DEĞİŞİM VE DÖNÜŞÜM
Authors: Gürdal Ekrem
Published: April 2024

18. yüzyıl ve sonrasında Osmanlı mimarlık örgütlenmesine odaklanan Oya Şenyurt’un Osmanlı Mimarlık Örgütlenmesinde Değişim Ve Dönüşüm adlı eseri, inşaat faaliyetlerini gerilimler, dönüşümler, çatışmalar, yolsuzluklar ve ödemeler dengesi üzerinden kurgulayarak, söz konusu mimarlık örgütlenmesinin idealize edilmiş bir sistem olgusundan arındırarak farklı bir bakış açısıyla değerlendirmektedir. Hassa Mimarlar Ocağı’na bağlı olarak faaliyet gösterenlerin yaptıkları işlerin hem kalite hem de kapasite olarak modern dönem mimarlık sürecine evrilirken yaşananları odak noktasına taşıyan Şenyurt, mimarlık örgütlenmesindeki değişim ve dönüşümü çarpıcı örnekleriyle ele almaktadır. Eserde değişim ve dönüşümü zorunlu kılan sebepler bölümler halinde işlenmiştir. Bugünün mimarlık terminolojisinden ziyade dönemin işleyiş biçimini, çalışma şartlarını, finansman kaynaklarını, bireysel girişimlerini ve inşaat ortamındaki rekabeti temel alan yaklaşımla, inşaat ortamındaki mimar, mühendis, bina emini, kalfa, usta ve işçilerin görev tanımlarındaki bulanık sınırların altı çizilmektedir. Çalışmamız Şenyurt’un 18. yüzyıl öncesi klasik devir Osmanlı mimarlığının genel bazı kabulleri tartıştığı ve Hassa Mimarlar Ocağı’nın kaldırılmasından sonraki döneme denk gelen değişim ve dönüşümün nedenlerine odaklandığı eseri incelemektedir. Eser eleştirel biçimde analiz edilmiş, konusu, amacı, kapsamı ve literatürdeki yeri, kitabın güçlü ve zayıf yanları değerlendirilmiştir.

Holier Than Thou? No Large Partisan Gaps in the Consumption of Pornography Online
Authors: Sood Gaurav , Shen Lucas
Published: April 2024

Consumption of pornography has been blamed for a variety of societal ills, including the rise in misogyny, sex crimes, and the coarsening of the culture. Using passively collected browsing data from YouGov, we investigate how much pornography Americans consume online. We find that there is a sharp positive skew in the consumption of pornography, with a small number of users consuming lots of pornography and most consuming small amounts. Only about 32 percent of respondents consumed pornography online during the month-long observation period. Of the people who consumed pornography, the median consumer spent about three-quarters of an hour consuming pornography and 95 percent of the consumers spent less than five and a half hours. Lastly, in line with previous research (MacInnis and Hodson, 2015; Edelman, 2009), which was based on aggregated data, we find that Republicans consume slightly more pornography online than Democrats. Adjusting for immutable characteristics like age and gender makes the differences go away.

Phlebotomy is the process of drawing blood from the circulatory system through a puncture to obtain a sample. Venous blood collection is done using a tourniquet as a damming device that serves to see the vein under the skin tissue. In adults, one of the veins used is the cubital fossa and in infants using the superficial jugular vein or in the superior sagittal sinus. Platelets are disk-shaped cells with a diameter of 2-5 mm. Under normal circumstances, the number of platelets is about 150,000-450,000 / ml of blood and its life span is about 1- 2 weeks or about 8 days. Platelets are made of phospholipid substances that are important for clotting, maintaining the integrity of blood vessels and repairing damaged small blood vessels. The purpose of this study was to determine the comparison of platelet levels in vein damming at 1 minute and 2 minutes. This study was conducted in the MM2100 industrial area, samples obtained from employees who did Medical Check Up and obtained as many as 30 respondents and 60 samples. The results showed that employees in the MM2100 industrial area with average platelet levels of 274,133/µl of blood at 1 minute and average platelet levels of 278,266/µl of blood at 2 minutes. This study uses the Paired Sample T-Test method, the results obtained with a sig value of 0.229 which means there is no difference in the damming time of 1 minute and 2 minutes on platelet levels.

In recent years, the water landscapes of inland rivers have been subjected to significant an- thropogenic impacts exceeding the limits of their self-healing ability. Traditional methods of monitoring ge- oecological parameters - sampling of water in the field with subsequent laboratory analysis - require signif- icant financial and time costs. Traditional methods allow assessing the ecological state of the entire water- course not spatially, but pointwise. In this research, sensors on board the UAV measured solar radiation reflected from the surface of the water and used image data from different camera ranges. The combina- tion of images used was based on a common methodology for identifying key features, and a geographic information system (GIS) modelling approach was used for spatially analyze the distribution and interaction of environmental features. In addition, research the ecological condition of the Yertis River and the quality of water discharged after the municipal wastewater treatment facilities of Ust-Kamenogorsk city into the Yertis River, the data from the DJI Phantom 4 RTK/multispectral drone was processed and the normalized vegetation index NDVI, normalised water level difference index NDWI, water chromaticness index CI, tur- bidity index NDTI and chlorophyll concentration index "a" were calculated. The results obtained can serve as a basis for scientific analysis of the environmental conditions of the researching area, including for learning the processes of eutrophication and other changes in the environment.

Published: April 2024

Nowadays, the automotive industry plays a significant role in the structure of domestic me- chanical engineering. There are a large number of enterprises engaged in the production and assembly of cars and trucks of various well-known brands on the territory of our country. A necessary stage in the pro- duction line of automobiles is testing (diagnostics). To diagnose the flow of produced cars, various options for placing technological equipment can be used. In this article, the authors have conducted a study of sev- eral layouts of diagnostic equipment for testing vehicles according to the criterion of the highest throughput using the method of mathematical modeling. As the research results have shown the most efficient equip- ment layout corresponds to the organization of the technological process with a six-post two-beam line. This variant of the organization of the technological process makes it possible to increase the efficiency of the di- agnostic line by almost 2 times. The results of the investigations can be applied to the effective organization of the process of testing automobiles at the enterprises for the production of transport equipment.

Com base nos pressupostos gerenciais que circundam as avaliações em larga escala, o estudo a seguir vem refletir sobre o padrão homogeneizador que caracteriza essas avaliações, assim como a não consideração da diversidade presente nas escolas que alicerçam a inclusão. Tem como objetivo demonstrar que a forma de avaliar os estudantes através do modelo atual, não pode ser vista como verdade absoluta nos resultados que se referem à qualidade em educação. Através de uma revisão bibliográfica, o estudo será descrito com base nas referências voltadas a essa temática no cenário educacional brasileiro, considerando o embasamento de autores cujo foco permeia a inclusão e sua legislação. Ademais, consideramos por fim que, não há um alinhamento entre o discurso e a prática no que se diz respeito à singularidade de cada estudante, uma vez que a legislação não se equaliza com o próprio sistema educacional vigente.
Mid-Atlantic Nocturnal Low-Level Jet Characteristics: A machine learning analysis of radar wind profiles
Authors: Roots Maurice , Sullivan John T. , Demoz Belay
Published: April 2024

Abstract. This paper introduces a machine-learning-driven approach for automated Nocturnal Low-Level Jet (NLLJ) identification using observations of wind profiles from a Radar Wind Profiler (RWP). The work discussed here is an effort to lay the groundwork for a systematic study of the Mid-Atlantic NLLJ’s formation mechanisms and their influence on nocturnal and diurnal air quality in major urban regions by establishing a general framework of NLLJ features and characteristics with an identification algorithm. Leveraging a comprehensive wind profile dataset maintained by the Maryland Department of Environment’s RWP network, our methodology employs supervised machine learning techniques to isolate the features of the south-westerly NLLJ. This methodology was developed to illuminate spatiotemporal patterns and nuanced characteristics of NLLJ events, unveiling their significant role in shaping the planetary boundary layer. This paper discusses the construction of this methodology, its performance against known NLLJs in the current literature, intended usage, and a preliminary statistical analysis. First light results from this analysis have identified a total of 90 south-westerly NLLJs from May–September of 2017–2021 as captured by the RWP stationed in Beltsville, MD (39.05°, -76.87°, 135 m ASL). A composite of these 90 jets is presented to better illustrate many of the bulk parameters, such as core height, duration, and maximum wind speed, associated with the onset and decay of the Mid-Atlantic NLLJ. We hope our study equips researchers and policymakers with further means to monitor, predict, and address these nocturnal dynamics phenomena that frequently influence boundary layer composition and air quality in the U.S. Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern regions.
Investigation of non-equilibrium turbulence decay in the atmospheric boundary layer using Doppler lidar measurements

Published: April 2024

Abstract. This work concerns analysis of turbulence in the Atmospheric Boundary Layer (ABL) short before and after the sunset. Based on a large set of the Doppler lidar measurements at rural and urban sites we analyze frequency spectra of vertical wind at different heights and show that they increasingly deviate from the −5/3 Kolmogorov’s prediction in the measured low-wavenumber part of the inertial range. We find that before the sunset the integral length scales tend to decrease with time. These findings contrast with a classical model of equilibrium decay of isotropic turbulence, which predicts that the scaling exponent should remain constant and equal to −5/3 and the integral length scale should increase in time. We explain the observations using recent theories of non-equilibrium turbulence. The presence of non-equilibrium suggests that classical parametrization schemes fail to predict turbulence statistics short before the sunset. By comparing the classical and the non-equilibrium models we conclude that the former may underestimate the dissipation rate of turbulence kinetic energy in the initial stages of decay.
A novel framework for accurately quantifying wetland depression water storage capacity with coarse-resolution terrain data

Published: April 2024

Abstract. Accurate quantification of wetland depression water storage capacity (WDWSC) is imperative for comprehending the wetland hydrological regulation functions to support integrated water resources management. Considering the challenges posed by the high acquisition cost of high-resolution LiDAR DEM or the absence of field measurements for most wetland areas, urgent attention is required to develop an accurate estimation framework for WDWSC using open-source, low-cost, multi-source remote sensing data. In response, we developed a novel framework, WetlandSCB, utilizing coarse-resolution terrain data for accurate estimation of WDWSC. This framework overcame several technical difficulties, including biases in above-water topography, incompleteness and inaccuracy of wetland depression identification, and the absence of bathymetry. Validation and application of the framework were conducted in two national nature reserves of northeast China. The study demonstrated that integrating priority-flood algorithm, morphological operators and prior information can accurately delineate the wetland depression distribution with overall accuracy and Kappa coefficient both exceeding 0.95. The use of water occurrence map can effectively correct numerical biases in above-water topography with Pearson coefficient and R2 increasing by 0.33 and 0.38 respectively. Coupling spatial prediction and modeling with remote sensing techniques yielded highly accurate bathymetry estimates, with <3 % relative error compared to filed measurements. Overall, the WetlandSCB framework achieved estimation of WDWSC with <10 % relative error compared to field topographic and bathymetric measurements. The framework and its concept are transferable to other wetland areas globally where field measurements and/or high-resolution terrain data are unavailable, contributing to a major technical advancement in estimating WDWSC in river basins.
Exploring the interplay of new and young water fractions with hillslope topography in a subtropical headwater catchment
Authors: Peng Tsung-Ren , Lee Jun-Yi
Published: April 2024

Abstract. Our study explores the intricate relationships between new water (Fnew), young water (Fyw), and topographic influences within small catchments, utilizing the Height Above the Nearest Drainage (HAND) as a key metric. Analysis revealed that seepage water consistently contains higher fractions of young water than stream water, despite similar contributions of new water from precipitation, highlighting differential hydrological responses. The relationship between Fnew and Fyw exhibited varying slopes for seepage and stream water, suggesting distinct hydrological sources and behaviors, with seepage water reflecting a “flashy” system and stream water indicating a “damped” system. A nonlinear dynamic was observed between HAND and transit time measures, with a notable threshold at approximately 10 m of HAND, beyond which the contribution of young and new water to streamflow declines, indicating a shift in hydrological pathways. This threshold behavior emphasizes the complex influence of topography on water movement and age within catchments. This research bridges gaps in our understanding of catchment hydrology, offering insights into the spatial and temporal dynamics of water movement and the pivotal role of landscape features in shaping hydrological responses.
A NEW CONCEPT OF BUILDING SANCTIONS OF THE NORMS OF CRIMINAL LEGISLATION, IN THE CONDITIONS OF DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES
Authors: Yergazy Erdenovich Kazhenov , Assel Serikpaevna Kazhenova , Ritta Anatolevna Barsukova
Published: April 2024

The legislative consolidation of criminality and the punishability of an act is the main element of the crime prevention system. The world is changing, changes are taking place in all sectors of public life – politics, economics, including in the field of crime. This dictates the need for continuous improvement of the norms of criminal legislation. The proposed changes relate to the construction of the article sanction. Two models are proposed: the first is to transfer all types of punishment to the relevant articles providing for types of punishment (from the norms of the Special Part to the General Part of the Criminal Code) and the second is to fix a separate norm in each chapter of the special part with an indication of the type and amount of punishment. For the application of additional punishments, regardless of the choice of the above proposed models, to provide in each chapter of the Special Part an article indicating the norms according to which the courts are obliged or may impose additional punishments. Such an approach will allow the courts to impose uniform and fair punishments, helps to minimize corruption manifestations on the part of all participants in the criminal process, will strengthen people's faith in justice, which will have a positive impact on the activities of the justice authorities. Given the dynamics of the introduction of digital technologies at the present stage of human development, proposed in the article new models of the design of the sanction will simplify and more effectively introduce the process of digitalization of criminal legislation. That is, they will simplify the process of qualification of criminal offenses, the choice of the required type and amount of punishment, etc. Especially when using computer programs with «artificial intelligence» planned for implementation or implemented in certain foreign countries.
THE MAIN SUBJECTS OF THE CONSTITUTIONALIZATION OF CRIMINAL LAW AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE OF THE REPUBLIC OF KAZAKHSTAN
Authors: Rakhmetulin Abay Dzhambulovich
Published: April 2024

The relevance of the topic of constitutionalization of the legal system in general and the criminal legal sphere in particular is predetermined by the increased importance of the ideas of the rule of law, constitutionalism and constitutional order in the modern world. In this aspect, the concept of constitutionalization is increasingly used in legal doctrine and legal practice, denoting an integral system of effective implementation of constitutional and legal values and principles in the norms of Kazakh legislation and law enforcement practice. The significant role of the norms of the Constitution of the Republic of Kazakhstan determines their regulatory, organizational, value and human rights impact on the formation and development of criminal and criminal procedural legislation. In this regard, the role and importance of constitutionalization subjects increases, the degree of their influence on the formation of legislative proposals for improving legislation, as well as on the adoption of legislative acts that ultimately determine the regime of constitutional order and constitutional legality. The immediate results of constitutionalization are ensured through law enforcement activities and lawful behavior of participants in legal relations. In this regard, it seems necessary to consider the role of the main subjects of the constitutionalization of criminal law and the process in conjunction with the analysis of such concepts as sources of constitutionalization, objects of constitutionalization, auxiliary subjects of constitutionalization. The article analyzes these issues taking into account the fact that the Kazakh doctrine has not yet developed scientifically sound proposals that would consider constitutionalization as a complex system with its interrelated elements: subjects, object, content. The author of the article considers the constitutionalization of criminal law and criminal procedure law as an independent institutional phenomenon of legal reality, the end result of which is the regime of constitutional order and constitutionalism. The main engine and locomotive of constitutionalization will be the subjects that establish, modify, specify or cancel the operation of the norms of national legislation, taking into account constitutional values.

Published: April 2024

The article examines the current legal regulation of artificial intelligence in the Republic of Kazakhstan. The features and risks of using artificial intelligence in the judicial process and legal practice, as well as its impact on the legal profession and on the fate of citizens in general, are considered. The significance, features and prospects of using artificial intelligence in legal practice in the context of the development of the digital economy of Kazakhstan are also investigated, the work of domestic and foreign researchers in the field of development and application of artificial intelligence technologies is analyzed. In the research work, a comparative analysis of the effectiveness and inefficiency of the influence of artificial intelligence on the sphere of legal relations was carried out. For example, while some researchers prove that artificial intelligence facilitates typical work in the field of law and legal practice, that it has a positive impact on saving time, automating legal services, some prove that artificial intelligence does not make the right decisions, commits negative actions and harms society. The advantages and disadvantages of the influence of artificial intelligence on the legal profession are also discussed, especially the risks of job loss of employees in this industry. The research paper presents quantitative indicators from the report of foreign studies and Kazakh studies of artificial intelligence in legal practice. Currently, the growth of online services, the introduction of new technologies, the automation of processes such as justice, may indicate the rapid development of artificial intelligence in this area.

Authors: Venera Tuleutaevna Konusova
Published: April 2024

The article represents a research endeavor that explores the approaches to regulating the realm of artificial intelligence (AI) in Kazakhstan. It presents an analysis of the methodologies employed in the development of ethical principles, strategic documents, and legislative frameworks, with the overarching objective of establishing a well-balanced model that fosters the advancement of emerging technologies and progress in the field of AI, while emphasizing the safeguarding of citizens' rights and lawful interests and ensuring their safety. The article furnishes a structured comprehension of the prospects associated with AI regulation in Kazakhstan, alongside recommendations for the adoption of contemporary international standards and practices. Particular attention is devoted to the experiences of the European Union and the United Kingdom in shaping a comprehensive regulatory framework for the AI domain. Based on a critical analysis of foreign practices, the article advocates for a delineation of regulatory matters at both the legislative and sub-legislative levels. To address legislative regulation, a series of measures is proposed, encompassing the definition of the concept of artificial intelligence, the establishment of regulatory principles, the mandatory implementation of impact assessments on human rights stemming from AI systems, the precise specification of competencies for the regulatory authority, and the requirement of transparency in AI utilization. However, the article acknowledges the impracticality of codified AI regulation. As for sub-legislative regulation, it is recommended to delineate the intricacies of procedures for assessing the impact of AI systems on human rights and technological evaluations. Furthermore, it is imperative to ascertain specific characteristics of AI systems that enable the assessment of their level of risk and potential adverse consequences for society and individual rights. Such an approach ensures clarity, efficacy, and the necessary flexibility demanded by the rapidly evolving landscape of societal interactions. The conducted research carries the potential for considerable value across diverse audiences. Primarily, policymakers and legislators will find invaluable recommendations that aid in devising effective strategies within the realm of AI. Moreover, the article holds significance for legal professionals, human rights advocates, students, and all those engaged in the scholarly pursuit of AI's legal regulation.

Published: April 2024

The article analyzes the norms of public law that regulate certain aspects related to intellectual property. Intellectual property law, being a sub-branch of civil law, includes not only the norms of private law, but also the norms of public law, i.e. is a complex branch of legislation. Relations, in particular, relating to the provision of legal protection for claimed inventions, utility models, industrial designs, trademarks, service marks, appellations of origin, breeding achievements (plant varieties and animal breeds) by the expert organization of the authorized body, are regulated by the norms of the administrative legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan, based on imperatives. Moreover, persons who are denied the grant of a title of protection in the form of a patent or certificate for a particular declared object can file obligatory pre-trial objections with the Appeal Board under the Ministry of Justice of the Republic of Kazakhstan and only then can apply to the court with a claim to appeal the decision of the expert organization, which refused to recognize the declared objects as objects of intellectual property. And these relations are regulated by the norms of administrative procedural legislation. The right of intellectual property is also regulated by the norms of tax, customs legislation. Thus, the intellectual property right in content is a sub-branch of civil law, because has the same subject, the method of legal regulation, and in terms of form, intellectual property law is a complex branch of legislation, because includes both private and public law.

Abstract
Purpose: The aim of this study is to evaluate and compare flexural strength and microhardness of different types of glass ionomer cements (Fuji IX GP® Fast, Riva LC HV, EQUIA Forte Fil).
Materials and Methods: A total of 30 samples (n = 10) were prepared for microhardness test, and an additional total of 30 samples (n = 10) were prepared for the flexural strength test. Customized stainless steel molds (25×2×2 mm³) were produced for the flexural strength test, and 10 mm and 2 mm plexiglass molds were produced for the microhardness test. The prepared samples were stored in distilled water in a dark bottle at 37 °C (±1 °C) for 24 hours. A three-point bending test was performed using a universal testing device, and the maximum force values required to fracture the samples were determined in Newton by the device after the fracture. For the Vickers microhardness test measurements were made from different areas of the upper surfaces of each sample and the average of five measurements was calculated in MPa.
Results: When comparing the flexural strength values, EQUIA Forte Fil group observed the highest flexural strength value, while Riva LC HV group had lowest flexural strength value. When comparing the microhardness values, EQUIA Forte Fil group showed the highest microhardness value, whereas Riva LC HV group observed the lowest microhardness value.
Conclusion: The use of EQUIA Forte Fil, which has the highest microhardness and flexural strength values, and similarly strengthened glass ionomer cements may enhance clinical success.

Is Tonsillolith a Protective Factor Against Covid-19 ?
Authors: Günen Yılmaz Sevcihan , Coşan Ata Gamze
Published: April 2024

Object: Tonsilloliths are the most common calcifications of the head and neck region and are also caused by inflammation of the pharyngeal lymphoid tissue. Changes that may occur in the lymphoid tissue due to tonsilloliths may affect the response to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). This radiological study aims to investigate the potential effect of tonsilloliths on Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
Material and Methods: This study, which has a cross-sectional retrospective design, was carried out by evaluating the digital panoramic radiographs taken before the pandemic period of the patient group (n=402) who had COVID -19, who applied to the Akdeniz University Faculty of Dentistry Oral, Dental and Maxillofacial radiology clinic, and the control group (n:400) who did not have COVID -19, in terms of the presence of tonsilloliths. All Statistical analyzes were performed with SPSS version 22.0 and P <0.05 was considered to indicate statistical significance. The Chi-square test and Student's t-test were performed.
Results: The incidence of tonsillolith was significantly lower in the patient group (29.1%) than in the control group (45%) (p <0.01). Both groups were similar in terms of age, gender, and systemic disease status (p = 0.1, 0.08, and 0.08, respectively). Tonsilotiths were located both uni and bilaterally (p = 0.09), but unilateral ones were more common on the right side (p = 0.04).
Conclusions: The results of this study showed that high-frequency tonsilloliths may have a protective effect against COVID -19.
Investigation of stress symptoms and interventions in firefighters

Published: April 2024

This research explores stress in Queensland Firefighters. A survey aimed to investigate symptoms of stress to identify early signs that would assist in developing resilience and early intervention programmes. The findings showed that stress symptoms could be grouped according to level of concern and supports the argument for early intervention. A second study used Neurofeedback as an intervention to investigate whether symptoms of stress could be improved. The findings also showed that symptoms of stress were reduced and suggests that this intervention is helpful and should be considered for further research.
Ekphrasis of the default mode: Simulating past, future and fictional worlds
Authors: Papas Diana Marietta
Published: April 2024

Perspectives on ekphrasis theory are advancing cognitive approaches. Despite this, the science of the brain’s default mode network rarely emerges in cognitive literary studies or ekphrasis discussion. When left unfocused, the brain in its default mode tends to ruminate on the past, speculate about the future, daydream about unlikely events and analyse the meaning of what others might say or think. The memory-imagination system, also referred to as “mental time travel”, helps us construct simulations of past, future and/or fictional events. This essay proposes an understanding of ekphrasis which engages activities of mental time travel and simulation to help render experience in the minds of readers/writers. This paper does not venture into the neuroscience debate, but rather, it explores the brain’s default mode in the contexts of ekphrasis criticism and cognitive literary studies. I refer to Jessica Au’s novella Cold Enough for Snow (2022) to illustrate examples of ekphrasis writing which – through the depiction of art, objects and images (imagined or real) – engages the systems of mental time travel and simulation to interpret complexities of the world and help render perceptual experiences in the narrative imagining.
