Yüksek Sünekliğe Sahip Al 1050-H14 Alaşımının Delinme Performansının İncelenmesi
Authors: GÖKÇE Hüseyin
Published: April 2021

Alüminyum ve alaşımları, birçok ürünün üretiminde özellikle uzay, havacılık ve otomotiv sektörleri başta olmak üzere farklı endüstri alanlarında yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Alüminyum alaşımları düşük yoğunluğu, yüksek korozyon direnci ve sünekliği, elektrik ve ısı iletkenliğinin yüksek olması ve ayrıca kolay işlenebilirliği ile karakterize edilebilir. Alüminyum ve alaşımlarının yüksek süneklik değerlerine sahip olması, talaşlı imalatta yüksek yüzey pürüzlülük değerleri, talaşın uzaklaştırılması ve kesici takıma yapışma gibi bazı zorlukları da beraberinde getirmektedir. Delme, talaşlı imalat alanında en yaygın kullanıma sahip imalat yöntemlerinden biridir. Teknolojinin hızla gelişmesine ve bununla beraber gelişen imalat yöntemlerine karşın delme, ekonomikliği ve basitliğinden dolayı hala tercih edilen imalat yöntemlerinden biri olmaya devam etmektedir. Bu çalışmada, 1050-H14 alüminyum alaşımı dört kontrol faktörü (kesme hızı, ilerleme miktarı, matkap uç açısı ve kaplama durumu) dikkate alınarak iki kalite karakteristiği (kesme kuvveti ve kesici takım sıcaklığı) açısından delme deneylerine tabi tutulmuştur. Kontrol faktörlerinin kalite karakteristikleri üzerindeki etkileri regresyon analizi ile modellenmiş ve Taguchi metodu ile optimum delme şartları belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. %95 güven aralığında varyans analizi yapılarak kontrol faktörlerinin etki oranları hesaplanmıştır. Doğrulama deneyleri ile de optimizasyon test edilmiştir. Deneyler sonucunda kesme kuvveti üzerinde etkili olan kontrol faktörlerinin önem sıralamasının sırasıyla ilerleme miktarı, uç açısı, kesme hızı ve kaplama durumu olduğu, kesici takım sıcaklığı üzerinde etkili olan kontrol faktörlerinin önem sıralaması sırasıyla kesme hızı, uç açısı, ilerleme miktarı ve kaplama durumu olduğu görülmüştür. Kesme kuvveti ve kesici takım sıcaklığı açısından 0,05 anlamlılık düzeyinde yapılan optimizasyonun uygun olduğu görülmüştür.

Authors: TOPCU Mustafa Kemal
Published: April 2021

Tedarik projelerinin belirlenen performans kriterlerine zamanında ve hedeflenen maliyet sınırları içerisinde ulaşabilmesi için etkin ve başarılı bir proje yönetimi anlayışına ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Başta savunma, havacılık ve uzay sanayi gibi uzun vadeli karmaşık sistem tedarikinde entegre proje ekiplerinin kullanılması söz konusu riskleri azaltmanın bir yöntemi olabilir. Ancak kullanıcı ihtiyaçları, yüklenici pozisyonu, ekonomi ve teknoloji gibi belirsizliklerin yoğun olduğu, mali, teknik ve takvim açısından risk yönetiminin ön planda tutulduğu savunma sektöründe entegre proje ekiplerinin kullanılmasına yönelik çalışmalar yetersiz, hatta yok denecek kadar azdır. Alanyazındaki bu yetersizliğe vurgu yapmak ve gelişen savunma sektöründe entegre proje ekiplerinin kullanılmasına katkıda bulunmak maksadıyla hazırlanan bu çalışmanın amacı, Türkiye’de entegre proje ekiplerin kullanımına yönelik bir model önerisi sunmak olarak belirlenmiştir. Özgün teknolojik savunma sistemine sahip olmak isteyen Türkiye açısından ekosistemdeki tüm aktörlerin teknoloji ve iş yapış tarzının sinerji yaratacak şekilde bir araya getirilmesi çalışmanın önemini artırmaktadır. Bu doğrultuda bu çalışmada, Türkiye’de savunma tedarik projelerinde kullanılabilecek örnek bir entegre proje ekip yapısı, ekibin oluşum aşamaları, çalışma talimatı ve kontrol listesi önerilmektedir.

Authors: BAYRAKTAR Fatih Selim , KÖSE Ramazan , ŞAHİN Mükerrem
Published: April 2021

Mühendislikte özellikle güç üretiminde ürün olarak ya da üretim süreçlerinin çıktısı olarak ısı enerjisi üretilir. Üretilen ısı, proseslerin sürekliliği için sistem dışına aktarılır. Bu ısı transfer işlemi üç ana mekanizma içinde ve birçok farklı yöntem vasıtasıyla gerçekleştirilir. Söz konusu yöntemlerden sıkça tercih edilenlerden bir tanesi de sistem sınırlarından ihraç edilmek istenen ısıyı bir ısı taşıyıcı akışkan aracılığıyla uzaklaştırmaktır. HTF (Heat Transfer Fluid – Isı Taşıyıcı Akışkan) de denilen bu akışkanların kullanım alanları çok geniştir. HTF’lerin en bilinenlerinden biri Solar Tuz isimli ötektik eriyik nitrat tuzu karışımıdır. Bu karışım öncelikli olarak güneş enerjisi sistemleri olmak üzere kimya ve diğer sektörlerde de tercih edilmektedir. Yüksek sıcaklıktaki kararlılığı ve ısıl özellikleri sayesinde onlarca yıldır hala ciddi talep görmektedir. Bu karışımın en ciddi sorunu yüksek erime sıcaklığı (~220 ℃)’dir. Bu değeri düşürmek için Solar Tuz’a çeşitli maddeler katılmakta ve hem erime sıcaklığının düşürülmesi hem de ısıl özelliklerinin iyileştirilmesi hedeflenmektedir. Bu çalışmada söz konusu akışkana bor bileşikleri eklenmiş ve akışkanın bazı özellikleri analiz edilmiştir. Borun seçilmesinde ülkemizin bor mineralleri konusunda dünyanın en zengin ülkesi olması temel motivasyon kaynağı olmuştur. Bor ve bileşiklerinin katma değeri ve kullanım alanlarının artması amacıyla yapılan bu çalışmada Solar Tuz’a %0,5, %1 ve %2 oranlarında amorf bor oksit, camsı bor oksit ve hegzagonal bor nitrür eklenmiş ve erime noktası ve kütle kaybı analizi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Erime noktası değerleri 215-226℃ arasında sıralanırken kütle kaybında %0,029 – %1 bandında gerçekleşmiştir. Erime noktası ve kütle kaybı analizi bir arada değerlendirildiğinde %2 bor nitrür içeren numune en uygun değerleri sağlamıştır.
Terörizmin Unutulan Yüzü: Devlet Terörizmi
Authors: KONCAGÜL İzzet
Published: April 2021

Bir devletin kendi kurumları veya devlet dışı aktörler vasıtasıyla kendi veya diğer devletlerin vatandaşlarına karşı uyguladığı kapsamlı, yaygın ve sistematik şiddet eylemleri olarak tanımlanan devlet terörizmi, günümüzde insanların ve toplumların güvenliğini tehdit eden unsurlardan biri olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Devlet terörizminin neden olduğu ölüm ve yaralanmalar, devlet dışı aktörler tarafından uygulanan terörizme kıyasla fazla olmasına rağmenbu terörizmin gerekli ilgiyi görmediği bilinen bir gerçektir. Özellikle Irak, Suriye, İsrail, Kolombiya, Çin gibi birçok devlet güvenlik güçlerini veya paramiliter yapılanmaları kullanarak insanlara karşı işkence, tecavüz, yargısız infaz gibi eylemler gerçekleştirmektedir. Bunun yanında bazı devletlerin terörizm kampanyalarına karşı masum ve suçluluları birbirinden ayırt etmeksizin orantısız bir şekilde karşılık verdiği görülmektedir. Fakat hem akademik alanda hem de uluslararası örgütler eliyle yapılan terörizm çalışmalarını incelediğimizde devlet terörizminin sadece alt başlıklar veya kısa paragraflarla açıklandığını, Hitler ve Stalin tarafından uygulanan devlet terörizmi örnekleriyle de daraltıldığını görmekteyiz. Yapılacak çalışmada; devletlerin terörizme karşı terörizm yöntemini benimsediği ve bu hâliyle devlet dışı aktörlerden daha tehlikeli ve ölümcül olduğu varsayımı ele alınacak, devlet terörizminin; terör niteliğinde olmayan suçtan ve devlet şiddetinden farkı, hedef kitle ve üst otorite bağlamında ele alınarak incelenecektir. Devletlerin terörizme karşı terörizme başvurduğu varsayımı, Sri Lanka-Tamil Kaplanları, Fransa-Ulusal Kurtuluş Cephesi, Kolombiya-Kolombiya Devrimci Silahlı Güçleri vakaları üzerinden incelenecektir. Söz konusu örnek vakaların farklı dönemlerde ve mekânlarda gerçekleşmiş olması devlet terörizminin zamansal özellik bağlamında nasıl değiştiğini anlamamız bakımından katkı sağlayacaktır.
Saving the soul of an African constitution: Learning from Kenya's experience with constitutionalism during COVID-19
Authors: Kabira Nkatha , Kibugi Robert
Published: April 2021

On 27 August 2010 Kenyans celebrated the promulgation of a new Constitution. This Constitution aimed at fundamentally transforming the governance framework through far-reaching institutional, administrative, legal and policy reforms. Ten years later this Constitution was put to the test when the government of Kenya reported the first COVID-19 case. In this article the authors argue that even though Kenya put in place a transformative Constitution intended to consolidate the rule of law, democracy, human rights and governance, the government's response to the COVID-19 pandemic questioned the transformative character of the Constitution and exposed inherent contradictions embodied in the Constitution. The article demonstrates that the Constitution is a double-edged sword, a site of tension and contradiction, on the one hand, and a site of hope and transformation, on the other.
Assessing the implications of digital contact tracing for COVID-19 for human rights and the rule of law in South Africa
Authors: Lim Woojin
Published: April 2021

The article argues that the establishment of centralised and aggregated databases and applications enabling mass digital surveillance, despite their public health merits in the containment of the COVID-19 pandemic, is likely to lead to the erosion of South Africa's constitutional human rights, including rights to equality, privacy, human dignity, as well as freedom of speech, association and movement, and security of the person. While derogation clauses have been invoked, thereby limiting International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights clauses and enabling the mass collection of location data only for contact tracing purposes under the Disaster Management Act, a sustained breach of these rights may pose an impending threat to the human rights framework in South Africa. Any proposed digital contact tracing technologies in their design, development and adoption must pass the firm legal muster and adhere to human rights prescripts relating to user-centric transparency and confidentiality, personal information, data privacy and protection that have recently been enacted through the latest development on Protection of Personal Information Act.
Die reg op selfbeskikking van godsdiensgroepe in Suid-Afrika
Authors: Van Der Vyver J
Published: April 2021

Die Grondwet van die Republiek van Suid-Afrika, 1996, is 'n godsdiens-vriendelike manifes omdat vryheid van godsdiens nie alleen in die lewe van die gelowige van belang is nie, maar ook vir die staat van groot waarde kan wees. Die Grondwet maak onder meer voorsiening vir die reg op selfbeskikking van godsdiensgroepe, wat beteken dat lede van godsdienstige gemeenskappe hulle godsdiens kan beoefen sonder ongegronde staatsinmenging. Die reg op selfbeskikking is egter nie ' n absolute reg nie en is onder meer aan die bepalings van die Handves van Regte ondergeskik. Daar word in dié verband verwys na regspraak wat op godsdiensonderrig in skole, en die toepassing van gedragskodes in die onderwys wat met godsdienstige gebruike in stryd mag wees, van toepassing is, asook na 'n verset teen die verbod op lyfstraf, omdat die verbod sogenaamd met godsdienstige leerstelling in stryd sou wees. Suid-Afrika onderhou ook die soewereiniteit in eie kring van godsdiensorganisasies, wat daarop neerkom dat die staat nie sal inmeng in interne besluite en praktyke van kerke en ander godsdiens-gerigte organisasies nie. Regspraak wat in dié verband ter sprake kom, het betrekking op tugmaatreëls wat teen 'n lid van die Ortodokse Joodse gemeenskap van Johannesburg ingestel is omdat hy 'n kerklike onderhoudsbevel verontagsaam het, en die afdanking van 'n vroulike predikant van die Metodiste Kerk in Rondebosch omdat sy met 'n ander vrou in die huwelik getree het. Die afdanking van 'n orrelonderwyser in die Kunsakademie van die Moreletaparkse gemeente van die NG Kerk as gevolg van sy selfdegeslagverhouding is egter nie deur die Gelykheidshof gehandhaaf nie, omdat die dienste van die orrelonderwyser as 'n onafhanklike kontrakteur nie met die geestellike roeping van die Kerk te make gehad het nie. Die beleid van die staat ten opsigte van die kerk en godsdienstige praktyke kan as 'n beleid van objektiwiteit beskryf word.
Waardegedrewe opvoedende onderwys in die konteks van godsdiensvryheid as mensereg
Authors: Oosthuizen I , van der Walt J
Published: April 2021

Onderwys in skole behels wesenlik leiding aan leerders om voorgeskrewe kennis en vaardighede onder die knie te kry. Die meeste skoolgemeenskappe vereis egter meer as net sulke blote onderrig-leerhandelinge en spits hulle gevolglik toe op opvoedende onderwys, dit wil sê vorme van onderwys gerig op die toerusting en vorming van leerders met die oog op hulle toekomstige lewensroeping. Skoolgemeenskappe gee by wyse van hulle beheerliggame uitdrukking aan dergelike vormings- en toerustingswaardes in hulle skole se visie- en missiestellings. Sulke opvoedende onderwyswaardes vloei voort uit die betrokke skoolge-meenskap se godsdienstige, spirituele en lewensbeskoulike waardes, en kan slegs uitgeleef word in 'n regsomgewing waar godsdiensvryheid as mensereg erken word. In Suid-Afrika word hierdie reg wel erken, maar enkele klein verstellings aan wetgewing en riglyne kan omstandighede nog gunstiger vir skole maak om hulle lewensbeskoulike identiteit ten volle te kan uitleef. Wetgewing behoort byvoorbeeld duideliker te stel dat die beheerliggame van skole, ook van openbare skole, die reg het om die lewensbeskoulike identiteit van hulle betrokke skool te bepaal en uit te leef, op voorwaarde dat dit geskied op niediskriminerende wyse teenoor leerders en hulle gemeenskappe wat ander gelowe aanhang.
Salus populi suprema lex: Godsdiensvryheid in krisistye
Authors: Venter F
Published: April 2021

Die rol van die staat in die geloofslewens van burgers is sedert die ontstaan van die moderne staat 'n voortdurende kwessie. Dit is onvermydelik omdat die reg in die hande van die staat 'n instrument kan wees om godsdiensvryheid te beperk, wat kan meebring dat gelowiges voor die keuse geplaas kan word om, in gehoorsaamheid aan hul gewetens, onregmatig te handel. Geen fundamentele reg geld absoluut nie, maar die vraag ontstaan of staatowerhede tydens krisistye meer perke op burgers se godsdiensregte mag plaas as wat andersinds die geval sou wees? Hierdie vraag het weer na vore gekom tydens die regering se hantering van die pandemiekrisis van 2020. In hierdie bydrae word die grondwetlike verlening en die aard van die reg op godsdiensvryheid in Suid-Afrika eers kortliks behandel en dan in verband gebring met die onderskeie verskynsels van noodtoestand, krygswet en ramptoestand. Hoe die reg op godsdiensvryheid ingevolge die Grondwet beperk mag word, is bepalend vir die beoordeling van die regmatigheid van die uitwerking van die rampbestuursreëlings van 2020 op godsdiensvryheid. Hierdie maatreëls was in verskeie opsigte buitengewoon, en die regs-geldigheid daarvan, of van aspekte daarvan, is gevolglik ook uit verskeie perspektiewe betwis, wat interessante implikasies het. Gesien teen die agtergrond van die onmoontlikheid om aanspraak op die primaat van die reg met die prioriteit van religieuse oortuigings te versoen, des te meer nog te midde van religieuse pluraliteit, word bepaalde beginsels ter oorweging aan die hand gedoen.
Die rol van godsdienstige identiteit in die bepaling van die "vervolgingsmodus" vir misdade teen die mensdom
Authors: Botha C , NelI W
Published: April 2021

'n Persoon se identiteit bestaan uit veelvuldige "identifiseerders", insluitende godsdiens. Hierdie godsdiens georiënteerde identiteit ("godsdienstige identiteit") moet geïnterpreteer word teen die agtergrond van die reg op vryheid van "gewete, godsdiens, denke en oortuiging". Oor die algemeen is "godsdienstige identiteit" verwant aan die afgeleide effek van 'n persoon se bepaalde eksistensiële oortuiging wat sy/haar innerlike bewussyn en diep eksistensiële identiteit uitmaak, asook sy/haar begrip van die lewe vorm. As 'n beskermde aspek van menslike identiteit, sal ernstige diskriminierende maatreëls op grond van godsdienstige identiteit neerkom op die skending van grondliggende menseregte. Dit kan ook tot gevolg hê dat die vervolger individuele strafregtelike aanspreeklikheid kan opdoen vir godsdiensgebaseerde vervolging as 'n misdaad teen die mensdom. Om sodanige vervolgingsmodus te bepaal, word vereis dat die vervolgde se godsdienstige identiteit die primêre diskriminerende grondslag is waarop die vervolger sodanige slagoffer teiken. Dus, om 'n situasie as godsdiensgebaseerde vervolging te klassifiseer, vereis 'n begrip van die vervolgde se godsdienstige identiteit en hoe dit verband hou met die vervolger se diskriminerende opset. 'n Bepaling van die rol van godsdienstige identiteit in 'n gegewe situasie is dus noodsaaklik om die vervolgingsmodus te bepaal.
Gender-based violence ignites the re-emergence of public opinion on the exercise of judicial authority
Authors: Ntlama Nomthandazo
Published: April 2021

South Africa is highly celebrated for its commitment to the promotion of human rights. This has also fostered "rights consciousness" among the citizenry which has become of essence for the advancement of the rights of women who had long been in the "legal cold". However, the significance of the "rights concepts" is marred by the extreme levels of gender-based violence against women. The effect of crimes suffered by women raises questions about South Africa's post-apartheid system of governance and the promotion of the rule of law, which is founded on human rights. With South Africa's history, it is assumed that law has the potential to transform societies in ensuring the fulfilment of rights as envisaged in many national, regional and international instruments. Against this background, this paper focuses on the recent shocking wave of the extreme levels of gender-based violence against women experienced in South Africa with the resultant consequence of the agitation of the public on the independence of the judiciary. Whilst it acknowledges the limitations of the law and the challenges faced by women, it argues against public opinion that seem to wither the democratic character of the state relating to the functioning of the judiciary. It also argues that public opinion waters down the assumption about the capacity of the law in generating social change. In addition, the confidence in the judiciary cannot be replaced by invidious philosophies that appear to compromise the independence of the judiciary as envisaged in the doctrine of separation of powers. The argument advanced herein is limited to the rationality of the calls by further raising a question whether safeguarding independence and impartiality of the judiciary should be outweighed by public outrage on gender-based violence. It also does not profess to provide an expert analysis of the interrelationship between law and social change because of the complexities that exists between these areas. Overall, the paper acknowledges and shares the concerns by the public on the elimination of gender-based violence; however, it refuses the indirect consequence of public opinion on the trampling of judicial authority.
Radiation-induced pathological fractures of the proximal femur: a case series considering an endoprosthetic solution
Authors: Vogel Jonathan , de Villiers Shaun , Mug la Walid , McCaul Jeannie , Hosking Keith , Hilton Thomas
Published: April 2021

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Radiation-induced pathological fractures of the proximal femur are difficult to treat due to frequent non-union and hardware failure using standard fracture fixation techniques. This case series investigates endoprosthetic replacement as a treatment option METHODS: A retrospective folder review from a private hospital in Cape Town, of patients who had sustained a radiation-induced pathological fracture, was reviewed using descriptive statistics. RESULTS: Six patients met the inclusion criteria. One patient was excluded as the minimum follow-up time of six months was not met. Of the Ave patients that were analysed, all Ave sustained transverse, subtrochanteric femur fractures. Prior to definitive treatment with a proximal femoral replacement, three patients were treated with standard trauma instrumentation prior to referral to the unit, and one patient was treated with a vascularised fibular graft as their initial treatment while at the unit. One patient was treated with an endoprosthetic replacement as their first procedure at the unit. Among the three patients treated with standard trauma fixation and the one patient treated with a vascularised fibular graft, there was a 100% failure rate. One standard trauma instrumentation patient had an ablation due to free musculocutaneous flap failure and periprosthetic infection after endoprosthetic replacement. This was the only complication of endoprosthetic replacement. At a median follow-up of 15 months (min 7, max 55) the median Musculoskeletal Tumour Society score was 74% (min 63%, max 93%. CONCLUSION: This case series seeks to highlight the high failure rates seen when treating this condition with standard trauma instrumentation or biological methods. Further research is needed, but endoprosthetic replacement may be a viable alternative solution Level of evidence: Level 4. Keywords: radiation-induced fracture, pathological fracture, endoprosthetic replacement
Analyse de la qualité des traductions automatiques du français vers l’anglais, d’Expressions Poly-Lexicales (EPL) à partir d’un corpus parallèle

Published: April 2021

Cette étude s’attache à évaluer la qualité d’un système de traduction probabiliste état de l’art, LIG-Moses (Potet, 2010), du français vers l’anglais, de la traduction d’expressions poly-lexicales, décrites selon Tutin et al. (2015), dans un document technique, à l’aide de la typologie d’erreurs de Vilar et al. (2006). Nous nous attachons à montrer si l’outil est utilisable par des apprenants pour la traduction d’EPL. De plus, les travaux de Hamilton (2015) ont montré que sur un corpus d’apprenants de L2, pour les erreurs d’acceptabilité textuelle, les erreurs de mise en phrase (i.e locutions figées, expressions idiomatiques, locutions semi-figée, collocations et unités multi-mots, ce qui correspond à la notion d’EPL que nous adoptons dans cet article) ont la plus haute fréquence soit 25,58%. Il s’agit donc d’étudier les types d’erreurs commis par l’outil de Traduction Automatique lors de la traduction d’EPL afin de guider les apprenants sur le choix de l’outil étudié pour la traduction d’EPL en fonction de leur niveau de connaissance de la langue. Après avoir décrit les différents éléments de notre étude, nous montrons que bien que traduites correctement à hauteur de 80%, les EPL qui n’ont pas été traduites correctement ne peuvent être corrigées que par des apprenants ayant un bon niveau de compétence dans la langue cible et une bonne connaissance du domaine du document.

The purpose of our study was to develop methods for creating hybrid nanostructures based on colloidal Ag2S quantum dots, pyramidal silver nanoparticles, Au nanorods, and to determine the spectral-luminescent manifestations of exciton-plasmon interactions in these structures. The objects of the study were Ag2S quantum dots passivated with thioglycolic acid (Ag2S/TGA QDs) and 2-mercaptopropionic acid (Ag2S/2-MPA QDs), gold nanorods (Au NRs), silver nanoparticles with pyramidal geometry (Ag NPs), and their mixtures. The spectral properties were studied using a USB2000+ with a PMC-100-20 photomultiplier system (Becker & Hickl Germany). The article considers the transformation of the luminescence spectra of colloidal Ag2S/TGA QDs and Ag2S/2-MPA QDs in mixtures with pyramidal Ag NPs and Au NRs. The study demonstratedthe presence of the effects of the contour transformation of the luminescence spectra due to the Fano effect, as well as the luminescence quenching following direct contact between QDs and NPs
Perception of New Technologies: Constructing an Innovation Openness Index
Authors:   National Research University Higher School of Economics, Pishnyak Alina , Khalina Natal'ya ,   National Research University Higher School of Economics
Published: April 2021

Rapid technological progress is one of the basic processes in the modern world. It is an integral part both in the field of labor and employment and in leisure and recreation. The request for an accelerated implementation of digital technologies in the economy and social sphere, which is inherent in one of the national development goals of the Russian Federation, makes this topic more important. In the presence of technological challenges, people have to adapt to constantly emerging innovations. Meanwhile the perception of innovations together with other individual characteristics and socioeconomic characteristics of different social groups could be considered determinants of openness to technological innovations. Based on this assumption, the authors of this article set the following objectives: they evaluate the openness of the population to innovation (through the construction of the index), examine the perception of innovation (by identifying factors of the perception of new technologies), and test the relationship between openness to innovation and the perception of new technologies. The multi-domain index of openness to innovation combines assessments of individual attitude, acceptance, and trust in innovations related to various spheres of the population’s life. The perception of innovation is revealed through the Technology Acceptance Model and includes: perceived ease of use of new technologies; the perceived usefulness of new technologies; perceived security and reliability of new technologies; and perceived elitist features of new technologies. This study demonstrates that openness to innovation depends upon the perception of new technologies and is differentiated among population groups.

Published: April 2021

Sihir, büyü, fal gibi metafizik güçlere dayalı olan uygulamalar insanlığın ilk dönemlerinden günümüze kadar toplumların inanç dünyalarında ve kültürlerinde yer edinmişlerdir. Yaratılıştan gelen; olayları ve durumları yönetme arzusu sihir ve büyü uygulamalarını, gelecekte olacaklara dair merak duygusu da fal açtırma yönelimini canlı tutmuştur. Türk dünyasını oluşturan Türk boylarının inanç dünyasında ve kültürel uygulamaları içerisinde de sihir/büyü, fal pratikleri ve bunlara bağlı olarak geliştirilen inanışlar bulunmaktadır. Sihir/büyü ve fal gücüyle hastalıkları sağaltma, düşmanlara üstün gelme, bir kişinin hayatına ve düşünce dünyasına hükmetme, gelecekten haber alma gibi yaşamı dönüştürme yetkinliğine ulaşma durumunun söz konusu olduğuna inanılmıştır.Türk boylarının inanç dünyasında ve toplumsal hayatında yer edinmiş olan sihir/büyü, fal uygulamaları kültürün aynası konumundaki destanlarda da motif olarak işlenmiştir. İçinden çıktığı toplumun kültürel kodlarını ve inanç dünyasını yansıtan destanları incelemek suretiyle Türk dünyasını oluşturan Türk boylarının ortak kültürünü, inanç ve uygulamalarını tespit etmek mümkündür. Bu tespit sayesinde kökleri Orta Asya’da bulunan ve dünyanın çeşitli coğrafyalarında hüküm süren Türk boylarının manevi birlikteliği ortaya konulmuş olacaktır.Bu makalede Kırgız, Kazak, Uygur ve Özbek Türklerinin inanç dünyasında yer alan sihir/büyü ve fal ile ilgili inanışların, uygulamaların destanlara yansımaları tespit edilmiştir. Yapılan karşılaştırmalı inceleme ve tahliller neticesinde aynı kültürel köke ve inanç dünyasına bağlı olan bu Türk boylarının destanlarında sihir/büyü ve fal motiflerinin işlenişinde ortaklıklar hatta aynılıklar olduğu görülmüştür.

Therefore modifications (mainly/mostly BME addition during the lysis step and a Phenol:Chloroform purification step) were made to create a new version of this protocol. This new version allowed to successfully extract DNA from orchid samples. This DNA was then sequenced on a Nanopore PromethION platform and good results in term of total yield and read length were obtained. This protocol was also successfully applied to a wide range of plant species (See attached document/excel sheet).

Authors: Et. al. Vidya S. Handur,
Published: April 2021

Development of technology like Cloud Computing and its widespread usage has given rise to exponential increase in the volume of traffic. With this increase in huge traffic the resources in the network would either be insufficient to handle the traffic or the situation may cause some of the resources to be over utilized or underutilized. This condition leads to reduced performance of the system. To improve the performance of the system the traffic requires to be regulated such that all the resources are utilized conferring to their capacity which is known as load balancing. Load balancing has been one of the concerns in the distributed computing systems where the computing nodes do not have a global view of the network. There have been constant efforts to provide an efficient solution for load balancing through the approaches like game theory, fuzzy logic, heuristics and metaheuristics. Even though various solutions exist for balancing the load, the issue is challenging as there does not exist one best fit solution. The paper aims at the study of how Particle Swarm Optimization approach is used to achieve an optimal solution for load balancing in distributed computing system.

“The Joys of Motherhood” of an African Woman: A Mirage
Authors: Et. al. Siva R,
Published: April 2021

Quest for identity is one phenomenon of postcolonialism that led way for the emergence of Women writers portraying the indigenous women of their society who were denied the authorial voice in the male-dominated society. Africa African woman literature has always been discussed elaborately not only among ‘White’ but also among fellow African women writers and critics across the globe. Emecheta was one such writer whose work has been criticized for writing after settled in the western country, UK (the colonizer). The readers from third world nations may agree with Emecheta’s call for the necessity to redefine Women’s identity under the African identity. Buchi Emecheta to that reverence has always through her strong woman characters never failed to express the state of the African women and their limitations in social life. Emecheta has always recorded her protagonists' struggle for equality in a male-dominated society. Through the study of her novel The Joys of Motherhood, an attempt is made to explore her perception of Motherhood and explain how she portrays it to the African context where traditions and communal ties are deeply rooted in the Nigerian Ibo society.

Authors: Et. al. Dr. Sreela.B,
Published: April 2021

This article is an attempt to illustrate the different ways through which culture gets transformed as a result of contact with other cultures. The desire to gain sociability forms ground for cultural changes such as accultration, assimilation, diffusion and other types of cultural changes. Amitav Ghosh is a prolific writer who occupies an invincible space among the national and also the international writers. Six of his novels are analysed to study the changes in the behavioral patterns of the characters in the novel. Cognition is a mighty factor that conditions the thoughts of every human. The desire to garner solidarity and establish sociability is the chief reason for cultural compromises. Therefore, Georg Simmel’s theory on sociabilities is taken into account to support this study.

A Review of Dynamic Resource Allocation Framework for Large Amount of Cloud Enterprises
Authors: Et. al. B Vijaya Laxmi,
Published: April 2021

Cloud computing is an on-demand service because it offers dynamic flexible resource allocation for reliable and guaranteed services in pay as-you-use manner. Because of the consistently increasing demands of the clients for services or resources, it gets hard to allocate resources accurately to the client demands to satisfy their solicitations and also to take care of the Service Level Agreements (SLA) gave by the service suppliers. Dynamic resource allocation problem is one of the most challenging problems in the resource management problems. The dynamic resource allocation in cloud computing has attracted attention of the research network in the last couple of years. Many researchers around the world have thought of new ways of facing this challenge. Ad-hoc parallel data handling has arisen to be one of the executioner applications for Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) cloud. Number of Cloud supplier companies has started to incorporate frameworks for parallel data handling in their item which making it easy for clients to access these services and to convey their programs. The handling frameworks which are at present utilized have been intended for static and homogeneous bunch arrangements. So the allocated resources may be inadequate for large parts of the submitted tasks and unnecessarily increase preparing cost and time. Again because of opaque nature of cloud, static allocation of resources is conceivable, yet the other way around in dynamic situations. The proposed new generic data handling framework is expected to expressly misuse the dynamic resource allocation in cloud for task scheduling and execution.
