Are Everyday Heroic or Altruistic Acts More Desirable in Human Mate Choice?
Authors: Farrelly Daniel , Curley Briar , Singh Bhogal Manpal
Published: April 2023

Previous research has shown that heroic acts are valued traits in human mate choice, due to their desirability particularly for long term partners. There is however inconsistency as to whether heroism is a more valued trait than more general forms of altruism, or if both signal the same underlying desired trait in partners. To assess this, the current study looked to directly compare the desirability of heroic and altruistic acts when both are options that individuals may choose. Here, both male and female participants were provided with descriptions of hypothetical individuals who chose to behave either heroically or altruistically in the same everyday scenario, and asked to rate their desirability for both short and long term relationships. It was found that although both heroic and altruistic individuals were considered more desirable for long term than short term relationships, there were no differences in the ratings of heroic and altruistic acts nor were there any sex differences. Accordingly it is concluded that heroism is not a distinct trait in mate choice than altruism, and both signal the actor’s underlying prosocial personality characteristic that is valued in long term relationship for both men and women.
Bio-Attractant of termites bait from waste paper and extract Ocimum basilicum Linn against Subterranean Termites Coptotermes curvignathus Holmgren
Authors: Diba Farah
Published: April 2023

Termites were the most destroying wood organism and one of the methods for controlling termites and suppressing its population is the baiting system. One of the conditions in the baiting system method is that the bait must be able to attract termites. Mostly the attractant is made from an extract of the plant. This research aimed to evaluate the attractants of termites bait from waste paper and extract of basil leaf (Ocimum basilicum) against subterranean termites Coptotermes curvignathus Holmgren. Leaves of Ocimum basilicum extracted with maceration process with ethanol. After extraction, the yield was made into five concentration, consist of 2%, 4%, 6%, 8% and 10%. The waste paper was made into termite’s bait with a square bait with measure 2 cm long x 2 cm wide x 1 cm thick. The result of research showed that the average of termites mortality value was 18.79% - 97.58%. The highest termites mortality was achieve on 10% concentration of extract Ocimum basilicum. Its followed by the concentration 8% with mortality value 91.52%; concentration 6% with mortality value 78.18%; concentration 4% with mortality value 61.82% and concentration 2% with mortality value 51.52%. Meanwhile on control treatment the mortality value was 18.79%. The average of weight loss of termite’s bait was 3.41% - 8.36%. The highest weight loss was achieved on concentration 8% and this bait was more attractive to termites. Termite’s bait from waste paper and extract of Ocimum basilicum was attractant to subteranean termites Coptotermes curvignathus and the optimum concentration was 8%.

Published: April 2023

Caesalpinia sappan is a shrubby Leguminosae tree commonly found in Indonesia, traditionally utilized as natural dye and herbal drink. However, in the making of traditional herbal drink, the bark is often discarded as residues. This research aimed to investigate total phenolic (TPC), flavonoid (TFC), and tannin (TTC) content as well as the antioxidant activity (DPPH scavenging activity) of the bark successive extracted with n-hexane, ethyl acetate, methanol, and hot water as well as analyzed it with GC-MS. The result showed the highest amount of TPC (824.16±62.28 mg GAE/g), TFC (185.03±1.91 mg QE/g), and TTC (987.07±30.98 mg TAE/g) in the methanol extract of the bark. GC-MS analysis resulted hydroquinone as a major constituent in the methanol extract. Further, antioxidant activity was found the strongest on methanol extract (IC50=63.48), while correlation between antioxidant activity and TFC was found the highest (R2=0.93). These findings suggest that bark of C. sappan is a suitable source of natural antioxidant with strong activity to DPPH radical.

Published: April 2023

Abstract. Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are an important organic carbon reservoir in many pelagic and benthic environments. The production of EPS is intimately associated with the growth of phyto- and picoplankton. EPS plays a critical role in carbonate precipitation through the binding of cations and by acting as a nucleation site for minerals. Large-scale episodes of fine-grained calcium carbonate precipitation in the water column (whiting events) have been linked to cyanobacterial blooms, including of Synechococcus spp.,. The mechanisms that trigger these precipitation events are still debated. We pose that the cyanobacterial EPS, produced during exponential and stationary growth phases plays a critical role in the formation of whitings. The aim of this study was to investigate the production of EPS during a two-month cyanobacterial growth, mimicking a bloom. We further evaluated the potential role of EPS in carbonate precipitation. The production and properties of EPS produced at different Synechococcus spp. growth stages were investigated and carbonate mineral formation within these EPS matrices was determined in forced precipitation experiments. EPS produced during the early and late stationary phase contained a larger amount of negatively charged groups than present in EPS produced during the exponential phase. Consequently, a higher Ca2+ binding affinity of the stationary phase-EPS led to the formation of a larger amount of smaller carbonate minerals (<50 µm) compared to crystals formed in exponential phase-EPS, which were less and larger (> 50 µm). These findings were used to establish a conceptual model for picoplankton bloom-mediated CaCO3 precipitation that can explain the role of EPS in whitings (see graphical abstract).

Abstract. Exposure to element carbon (EC) and NOx is a public health issue that has been gaining increasing interest, with high exposure levels generally observed in traffic environments e.g., roadsides. Shanghai, home to approximately 25 million in the Yangtze River Delta (YRD) region in east China, has one of the most intensive traffic activities in the world. However, our understanding of the trend in vehicular emissions and, in particular, in response to the strict Covid-19 lockdown is limited partly due to a lack of long-term observation dataset and application of advanced mathematical models. In this study, NOx and EC were continuously monitored at a near highway sampling site in west Shanghai for 5 years (2016–2020). The long-term dataset was used to train the machine learning model, rebuilding the NOx and EC in a business-as-usual (BAU) scenario in 2020. The reduction in NOx and EC attributable to lockdown was found to be smaller than it appeared because the first week of lockdown overlapped with the lunar new year holiday, whereas, at a later stage of lockdown, the reduction (50–70 %) attributable to the lockdown was more significant, confirmed by satellite monitoring of NO2. In contrast, the impact of the lockdown on vehicular emissions cannot be well represented by simply comparing the concentration before and during the lockdown for conventional campaigns. This study demonstrates the value of continuous air pollutant monitoring at a roadside on a long-term basis. Combined with the advanced mathematical model, air quality changes upon future emission control and/or event-driven scenarios are expected to be better predicted.
Adverse impact of terrain steepness on thermally-driven initiation of orographic convection
Authors: Göbel Matthias , Serafin Stefano , Rotach Mathias Walter
Published: April 2023

Abstract. Diurnal mountain winds precondition the environment for deep moist convection through horizontal and vertical transport of heat and moisture. They also play a key role in convection initiation, especially in strongly inhibited environments, by lifting air parcels above the level of free convection. Despite its relevance, the impact of these thermally-driven circulations on convection initiation has yet to be examined systematically. Using idealized large-eddy simulations with the WRF model, we study the effect of cross-valley circulations on convection initiation under synoptically undisturbed and convectively inhibited conditions, considering quasi-2D mountain ranges of different heights and widths. In particular, we contrast convection initiation over relatively steep mountains (20 % average slope) and moderately steep ones (10 %). One distinctive finding is that, under identical environmental conditions, relatively steep mountain ranges lead to a delayed onset and lower intensity of deep moist convection, although they cause stronger thermal updrafts at ridge tops. This finding cannot be explained considering the temporal evolution of convective indices, such as convective inhibition and convective available potential energy. Analysis of the ridgetop moisture budget reveals the competing effects of moisture advection by the mean thermally-driven circulation and turbulent moisture transport. In general, at mountaintops, the divergence of the turbulent moisture flux offsets the convergence of the advective moisture flux almost entirely. The weaker total moistening found over steep mountains can be explained by considering that buoyant updrafts over their ridgetops are on average relatively narrow. Thus, they are more strongly affected by the turbulent entrainment of environmental air, which depletes their moisture and cloud water content and makes them less effective at initiating deep convection. In our simulations, convective updrafts over moderately steep mountains, on the other hand, gain more moisture from the vapor flux at cloud base and lose less moisture due to horizontal vapor fluxes over the course of the day, leading to significantly higher moisture accumulation. The precipitation efficiency, a measure of how much of the condensed water eventually precipitates, is also considerably larger over the moderately steep mountains. The weaker convection over steep mountains is a robust finding, valid over a range of background environmental stratifications and mountain sizes.

Abstract. Ensuring food security against climate risks has been a growing challenge recently. Weather index insurance has been pointed out as a tool for increasing the financial resilience of food production. However, the multi-hazard insurance design needs to be better understood. This paper aims to review weather index insurance design for food security resilience, including the methodology for calculating natural hazards' indices, vulnerability assessment, and risk pricing. We searched for relevant research papers in the Scopus database using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) protocol. Initially, 364 peer-reviewed papers from 1 January 2010 to 19 February 2022 were screened for bibliometric analysis. Then, the 26 most relevant papers from the last 5 years were systematically analyzed. Our results demonstrate that despite a significant research effort on index insurance, most papers focused on food production. However, research considering other aspects of food security, such as transportation, storage, and distribution, is lacking. Most research focuses on droughts. Other hazards, such as extreme temperature variation, excessive rainfall, and wildfires, were poorly covered. Most studies considered only single-hazard risk, and the multi-hazard risk studies assumed independence between hazards, neglecting the synergy hypothesis between hazards. Lastly, we proposed a conceptual framework that illustrates design paths for a generalized weather index insurance design and evaluation. Solutions for addressing multi-hazard problems are considered. An illustrative example demonstrates the importance of testing the multi-hazard risk hypothesis for weather-based index insurance design for soybean production in Brazil.
A simple vortex model applied to an idealized rotor in sheared inflow
Authors: Gaunaa Mac , Troldborg Niels , Branlard Emmanuel
Published: April 2023

Abstract. A simple analytical vortex model is presented and used to study an idealized wind turbine rotor in uniform and sheared inflow, respectively.
Our model predicts that 1D momentum theory should be applied locally when modelling a non-uniformly loaded rotor in a sheared inflow. Hence the maximum local power coefficient (expressed with respect to the local, upstream velocity) of an ideal rotor is not affected by the presence of shear. We study the interaction between the wake vorticity generated by the rotor and the wind shear vorticity and find that their mutual interaction results in no net generation of axial vorticity: the wake effects and the shear effects exactly cancel each other out. This means that there are no resulting cross-shear-induced velocities and therefore also no cross-shear deflection of the wake in this model.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of psychological alienation experienced in educational institutions on performance. Greek Latin is the origin of the definition of alienation, derived from the Greek word allosis. The concept means to capture, to pass through oneself and to go out of the self. Alienation in its most obvious sense refers to the estrangement of people from one another or a certain environment or environment. Alienation in everyday life means estrangement from old friends or from the environment. The definition of alienation is expressed with various definitions in different fields. Psychological alienation occurs as a result of spiritual bullying that occurs by using negative and unethical communication in a systematic way directed at another person by one or several people in institutions. Psychological alienation is when workers see their jobs as meaningless, cannot provide Junky pleasure from the relationship they have established, feel alone and inadequate, lose hope for the future and begin to perceive themselves as a simple part of the order. Key Words: Educational Institutions, Psychological Alienation, Performance

Introduction: The discoloration of the denture base resins is one of the shortcomings of this type of dental materials, and it could be determined through various visual and instrumental methods. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the color stability of 3Dprinted and conventional denture base resins after immersion in different staining solutions. Materials and methods: A total of 200specimens were manufactured from two types of materials: 3D printed dental resin NextDent Denture 3D+ (NextDent, 3D Systems, The Netherlands) and heat-polymerized PMMA Vertex (3D Systems, The Netherlands), which were immersed in four types of colorants - artificial saliva, coffee, red wine and coke (n = 25). For measuring the color changes (CIE-L*a*b* system) of all specimens after storage in artificial saliva for 24 h at 37 degrees C (T0), a spectrophotometer SpectroShade Micro (SpectroShade, USA) was used. After seven days (T1), 14 days (T2) and 21 days (T3), the mean ∆E values were calculated and compared by Bonferonni post-hoc test. The data were processed using thestatistical software SPSS 26. The level of significance forrejecting the null hypothesis was fixed at p<0,05. Results: The values for ΔE were investigated, and the interactions between the type of material,the immersion time and the different staining solutions were statistically significant. The highest mean for ∆E was evaluated for both types of dental resin in red wine. Respectively, 3D printed specimens in artificial saliva were with the lowest mean. Conclusions: The 3D printed denture base resin demonstrated better color stability than the conventional acrylic materials. The staining effect correlated with the immersion time, with the red wine and coke being with the most chromogenic impact and the period with the highest color changes being 21 days.There was a significant interaction between theselected time periods and the type of staining agent, as both types of dental materials showedchanges in color stability at T1 compared to T3.

Authors:   Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism, School of Medicine, University of the Republic (UdelaR) Montevideo, Uruguay., Mintegui Gabriela
Published: April 2023

Parathyroid carcinoma is a malignant tumor derived from the parenchymal cells of the parathyroid glands. It represents one of the less frequent causes of primary hyperparathyroidism, with an incidence of 0.36 per 10 million people. Knowledge about the history of the disease and prognostic factors is currently limited. It should be suspected in a patient with marked hypercalcemia and very high parathyroid hormone (PTH), with a large tumor, and with bone and kidney repercussions that should be evaluated initially. The mainstay of treatment is surgery, both as initial treatment and for treatment of recurrence or metastasis; this should include parathyroidectomy or in bloc resection of the parathyroid mass, the surrounding capsule, and includes ipsilateral thyroid lobectomy, and any adjacent tissue that the tumor has invaded. Patients should be followed up on the possibility of recurrence by measuring serial calcium, serum PTH, and at least one thyroid ultrasound once a year. The disease can recur in a third of patients, presenting a cure with a second surgery. We herewith analyze a 55-year-old patient with a history of multiple cardiovascular diseases and chronic kidney disease, who presents with primary hyperparathyroidism with very high serum concentrations of calcium and PTH, in whom left lobectomy and parathyroidectomy with in bloc resection were performed due to suspicion of malignancy, whose pathological anatomy showed a parathyroid carcinoma.
Stopping Parkinson’s disease and Multiple system atrophy. Are 'strains' the solution?
Authors: Dieriks Victor
Published: April 2023

Parkinson's disease and multiple system atrophy are neurological disorders affecting over 10 million people worldwide. The lack of treatments is primarily due to the complexity of these illnesses, the variability of symptomatology and the lack of diagnostic tests. In both conditions, toxic clumps of a protein called alpha-synuclein form in the brain. Previous research suggests that the building blocks of these clumps are the same but that the 3D structure can vary, giving rise to distinct alpha-synuclein 'strains' that uniquely affect the patient’s brain. We hypothesise that alpha-Synuclein strains are partly responsible for the varied symptoms in patients. Therefore future treatment must be tailored to the specific strain. My [group](https://www.dierikslab.com) develops techniques to characterise the strain and identify novel druggable targets. Ultimately the goal is to create strain-specific therapeutics that reduce the burden of alpha-synuclein clumps in these illnesses.

Published: April 2023

Wild animal trafficking is a growing practice worldwide and a complex problem that brings a lot of profit, moving billions of dollars. This illegal trade has Brazil as route due to its rich biodiversity. It is widespread throughout the state of Pernambuco, having constant growth because the state is in a geographical position that favors this type of illegal practice and has a great diversity of species. Thus, the objective of the study was to perform a spatial analysis of wild bird trafficking in the municipalities of the state of Pernambuco in the period from 2016 to 2021, through an exploratory data analysis with seven variables that could explain its occurrence. It was used as methodology the global and local Moran’s indexes, all implemented in the Geographic Information System software. The findings revealed that the municipalities that showed high average rates of wild bird trafficking in the investigated period, in general, are geographically close to those that also showed high rates of seizure of birds, Intentional Lethal Violent Crime, Violent Crime against Property, and unemployment. In general, the results allowed us to conclude that the methods of spatial cluster analysis proved satisfactory for the analysis in question. Moreover, it is important to note that the precarious enforcement favors the continuity of this practice, and there is an urgent need for environmental policies to restrain it effectively.

Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to determine how nursing students' knowledge of the Omaha care plan has changed following their training in the Omaha classification system. Finding nursing students' opinions on the Omaha system utilized in school health practice was another objective of the study. Materials and Methods: This research covers the qualitative part of a mixed-method intervention study. Students from the Faculty of Health Sciences, School of Higher Education, Bursa Uludağ University were interviewed for the study between June and July 2019. The population of the study consisted of 153 students taking public health nursing courses at Bursa Faculty of Health Sciences, Faculty of Health Sciences, and 52 students who agreed to participate in the study were sampled. Numbers, percentages, and a Wilcoxon sign test analysis were utilized to examine the data in the SPSS 23.0 program. To evaluate qualitative data, thematic analysis was employed. Results: The Omaha system total score (p < 0.001), problem classification score (p < 0.001), intervention scheme score (p = 0.016), and problem assessment scale score (p = 0.006) of the students after the training were higher and statistically significant compared to their pre-training scores (p = 0.05). Some students evaluated the Omaha system as a difficult, complex, time-consuming, different, important, professional system that allows evaluation of each stage and questioning of causality; while some students evaluated it as a system that they could not understand at all. Conclusion: As a result of the study, students' knowledge levels increased before and after the training. Keywords: Omaha, Nursing, Student, Evaluation.
The Effect of the Additive Row Operation on the Permanent
Authors: KÜÇÜK Ahmet Zahid , SÖZER Abdullah Talha
Published: April 2023

The permanent function is not as stable as the determinant function under the elementary row operations. For example, adding a non-zero scalar multiple of a row to another row does not change the determinant of a matrix, but this operation changes its permanent. In this article, the variation in the permanent by applying the operation, which adds a scalar multiple of a row to another row, is examined. The relationship between the permanent of the matrix to which this operation is applied and the permanent of the initial matrix is given by a theorem. Finally, the paper inquires the need for further research.

Published: April 2023

The study presents the direct product of two objects in the category of 4-dimensional 2-crossed modules. The structures of the domain, kernel, image, and codomain can be related using isomorphism theorems by defining the kernel and image of a morphism in a category. It then establishes the kernel and image of a morphism in the category of 4-dimensional 2-crossed modules to apply isomorphism theorems. These isomorphism theorems provide a powerful tool to understand the properties of this category. Moreover, isomorphism theorems in 4-dimensional 2-crossed modules allow us to establish connections between different algebraic structures and simplify complicated computations. Lastly, the present research inquires whether additional studies should be conducted.

To facilitate this application, the current study was performed to investigate the efficiency of plasma generation in HCB. Methods: Based on the plasma generated in HCB, an experimental system has been constructed. We measured the characteristics of the cavitating flow, including pressure, temperature, and water flow rate, and estimated the system and cavitation power consumptions. High-speed images of cavitating flow were obtained to examine the evolution of the cavitation zone. Images of discharge emission at various velocities were captured to identify the location of electrodes. In addition, optical emission spectra were examined to determine the type of reactive species. H2O2 concentration and energy efficiency were measured and analyzed. Results: In this experiment, the system power consumption was 1.2W. The highest cavitation power consumption was 50.4W and increased with the elevation of throat velocities. The processing findings of high-speed images revealed that the cavitation characteristic length was essential for plasma generation and was necessary for establishing the location of electrodes. In addition, the UV-Vis emission spectra of the plasma discharge demonstrated that the hydroxyl radical ·OH was formed in situ and that cavitation increased the yield of ·OH. H2O2 was the principal active component of PAW. Plasma generated in HCB produced H2O2 with a high energy efficiency of 77.0mol/kWh. Conclusion: Plasma generated in HCB may provide a viable and cost-effective alternative method for PAW preparation.

Hükümet sistemlerinin niteliğinin tespiti türedi bir süreç olmayıp, belirli bir tarihsel bağlamı olan siyasal dönüşümlerin ortaya çıkardığı sorunlara verilen cevap niteliği taşımaktadır; dolayısıyla dinamik bir sürecin ürünüdür. Bu durum dünyanın her yerinde olduğu gibi Türkiye için de geçerlidir. Siyasi ve hukuk tarihimizin ilk Anayasası olan 1876 Anayasası (Kanun-ı Esâsî) çerçevesinde ortaya çıkan ilk yapılanma, siyasi gücün daha ziyade monarşi ve bürokrasi arasında paylaştırıldığı parlamenter sistem benzeri bir nitelik göstermiştir. Birinci ve İkinci Meşrutiyet dönemlerinin, gerek yürütmenin yasama organı ile gerekse yürütmenin unsurlarının kendi içerisindeki ilişkiler bağlamında sürekli bir devinim ve kuvvet kaymaları ile dolu bir zaman dilimi olduğu aşikârdır. Bu dinamik ve devingen süreçte, 1909 değişikliklerini mümkün kılan 23 Temmuz 1908 tarihli İkinci Meşrutiyet, Osmanlı yönetim sistemine ilk defa gerçek anlamda parlamenter bir nitelik kazandırması açısından önemli bir dönüm noktasıdır. Bu bağlamda günümüzde 1982 Anayasasında yapılan değişiklikler ekseninde ortaya çıkan tartışmaların tarihsel ipuçlarının yakalanması anlamında İkinci Meşrutiyet dönemi ziyadesiyle önemlidir. Çalışma bu perspektifle, hukuk tarihimizin ilk anayasası ile inşa edilen ve 1877’de kesintiye uğramakla birlikte İkinci Meşrutiyetle tekrar dirilen Osmanlı parlamento deneyimini öne çıkaran yönleriyle ortaya koymak ve günümüz tartışmalarına tarihsel bir zemin olmak amacıyla kaleme alınmıştır.
DOĞAL HUKUKUN POZİTİF HUKUKLA İLİŞKİSİ BAĞLAMINDA SOKRATES’İN ÖLÜMÜ ÜZERİNE BİR DEĞERLENDİRME

Sokrates’in ölümü doğal hukuk ve pozitif hukuk ilişkisine dair önemli çıkarımlar içermektedir. O, Savunma’da ve Kriton’da nomos’a itaat etme gerekçelerini içindeki tanrısal ses/daimon temelinde açıklamıştır. Nomos’a itaatin hukukî bir ödev olmaktan önce ahlaki bir sorumluluk olduğunu ifade eden Sokrates, ahlakın hukuku öncelediğini ve pozitif hukukun meşruiyet kaynağının doğal hukuk olduğunu iddia etmektedir. Nitekim Sokrates, Atina kentinin o dönem yürürlükte olan pozitif hukukunun ahlaki bir ideal olan adaleti sağlayamadığını bilse de nomos’un ve kendisine verilen cezanın tanrısal yasaları ve ahlak kurallarını ifade eden thesmoi ile çelişmediğine inandığı için yasaya içtenlikle itaat etmiştir. Sokrates’in hukuka itaat yükümlülüğünü yalnızca ahlaka bağlaması ve Atina devletini aşırı bir biçimde yücelterek devlet karşısında kişinin varlığını eritmesi modern pozitif hukuk için elbette geçerliğini kaybetmiştir. Ancak onun ölümü pozitif hukukun adalet sorununa yaklaşımında hukuk felsefesinin ne denli önemli bir yere sahip olduğunu asırlar önce gözler önüne sermiştir. Bir hukuk sisteminin en önemli işlevi adaleti sağlamak için adil ve haklı çözümler üretmektir. İşte bu noktada adalet, vicdan, hakkaniyet gibi kavramların ve dolayısıyla doğal hukukun yol göstericiliğine ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Klasik doğal hukuk öğretisinin evrensel ve ebedi olma iddiası modern pozitif hukuk için uygulanabilirlik özelliğini kaybetmiş olsa da modern doğal hukuk öğretilerinin değişir kapsamlı doğal hukuk anlayışı belli bir durum için geçerli, haklı ve adil hukuku bulma konusunda önemli bir rehberdir. Bu nedenle doğal hukuku tamamen devre dışı bırakmak isteyen veya onunla sürekli olarak çelişen bir pozitif hukuk sisteminin insanların adalet duygusunu tatmin etmesi her zaman mümkün olmayabilir.

Teknolojik gelişmeler ve yenilikler hayatımızın her alanını olduğu gibi hukuku da etkilemektedir. Teknolojinin getirilerinden biri de hiç şüphesiz yapay zekâ teknolojisidir. Yapay zekâ teknolojisinin günden güne gelişmesi ile birlikte hukukun çoğu alanında farklı gelişmeler yaşanmaya başlamıştır. Bu alanlardan birisi de şirketler hukukudur. 2014 yılında Hong Kong’da faaliyet gösteren bir şirketin, yönetim kuruluna yapay zekâyı üye olarak atadığını duyurmasıyla şirketler hukukunda yeni bir dönem başlamıştır. Yapay zekânın anonim şirket yönetim kuruluna üyeliğiyle beraber şirketler hukukunda birçok tartışma yapılmış, yapılmaya da devam etmektedir. Yapay zekânın üyelikten doğan sorumluluğunu değerlendirilirken, yapay zekâya hukuki kişilik atfedilip atfedilemeyeceği tartışması üzerinde durulması gerekir. Zira yapay zekânın kişi olarak kabul edilmesi gerektiğini düşünenler olduğu gibi eşya, köle, yapay insan, yapay vekil olarak değerlendirenler de bulunmaktadır. Çalışmamızda yapay zekânın şirket yönetim kuruluna üyeliği ile beraber üyelikten doğan sorumluluğun nasıl şekilleneceği üzerinde çeşitli açılardan durulacaktır. İhtimallere göre yapılan değerlendirmede, yapay zekâya atfedilen farklı hukuki statülere göre açıklamalarda bulunulacak, sorumluluğun kimde olduğu ve hangi hükümlerin uygulanması gerektiği ifade edilecektir.
MİLLETLERARASI TİCARİ TAHKİMİN ADİL YARGILANMA HAKKININ UNSURLARI BAKIMINDAN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ

Adil yargılanma hakkı; Avrupa İnsan Hakları Sözleşmesi’nin 6. maddesinde düzenlenmiş olan ve uhdesinde makul sürede yargılanma, bağımsız ve tarafsız yargı yerinde yargılanma, aleni yargılanma, mahkemeye erişim hakkı gibi birçok unsuru bulunduran temel bir insan hakkıdır. Avrupa İnsan Hakları Sözleşmesi’nde tahkim prosedürüne ilişkin doğrudan bir atfın yer almaması sebebiyle tahkim yargılamasında adil yargılanma hakkının var olup olmayacağı üzerine doktrinde tartışmalar yer alsa da, bu temel insan hakkı yargısal bir faaliyetin yürütüldüğü tahkim yargılamasında güvenceleriyle mevcuttur. Nitekim her ne kadar Sözleşmede tahkim açıkça yer almasa da adil yargılanma hakkının tahkim yargılamasında nazara alınacağı Avrupa İnsan Hakları Mahkemesi’nin içtihatlarıyla sabittir.

Milletlerarası ticaretin hızla geliştiği ve tarafların uyuşmazlıklarının çözümünde tahkim yolunu öngördüğü dikkate alındığında adil yargılanma hakkı, nasıl ki devlet yargılamalarında korunması elzem bir insan hakkıysa aynı şekilde tahkim yargılamasında da korunması lazım gelen, önündeki engellerin kaldırılması gereken bir insan hakkıdır. Bu doğrultuda bu çalışmada detayları yer alacağı üzere özellikle adil yargılanma hakkının bir unsuru olan mahkemeye erişim hakkı kapsamında üçüncü kişi finansmanının Türk hukukuna kazandırılması isabetli olacaktır. Aynı doğrultuda adil yargılanma hakkının; makul sürede yargılanma, bağımsız ve tarafsız yargı yerinde yargılanma ve aleni yargılanma unsurları açısından da bu hak kapsamında korumaya muhatap kılınması ve tahkim uyuşmazlıklarının adil yargılanma hakkı açısından da değerlendirilmesi gerekmektedir. Bu çalışmada adil yargılanma hakkının milletlerarası tahkimle ilişkisi ortaya konulacak, adil yargılanma hakkının tahkimdeki var oluşunu güçlendirecek çözüm önerilerinde bulunulacaktır.
ULAŞIM ARAÇLARINA ZİLYETLİĞİN ORTADAN KALDIRILMASI SURETİYLE EL KONULMASI

Ulaşım araçlarına el konulması meselesi, hukukumuzda özel olarak ele alınması gereken bir konudur. CMK’da konuya ilişkin uygulanabilecek birden fazla hüküm bulunmaktadır. Bunlardan birincisi genel olarak el koyma kararının dayanağı olanak gösterilebilecek CMK’nın 127. maddesidir. Bu maddeye göre verilecek el koyma kararı CMK’nın 123. maddesine göre zilyetliğin ortadan kaldırılması suretiyle infaz edilecektir. Konuya ilişkin uygulanabilecek ikinci CMK hükmü ise 128. maddenin dördüncü fıkrasıdır. Bu hüküm koruma tedbirleri açısından birçok hata ve zayıflık içermektedir. Öngörülen şerh usulünün koruma tedbirleri bağlamında bir kıymeti bulunmamaktadır. Bu sebeple CMK’nın 128. maddesinin dördüncü fıkrası CMK’nın 127. maddesine göre verilecek el koyma kararının önüne geçmemektedir.

5607 sayılı Kanun’un 10. maddesi ve 6458 sayılı Kanun’un Ek 1. maddesinde öngörülen el koyma prosedürleri CMK hükümleri ile uyum arz etmemektedir. Söz konusu hükümler koruma tedbirleri bakımından birçok çelişki ihtiva etmektedir. Bu prosedürlerin yeni birer koruma tedbiri olmadığını, Kanun Koyucunun öngördüğü özel el koyma halleri olduğunu kabul etmek gerekir.
