Yayın A critical question for bariatric surgery candidates: why do you think you need surgery and are you ready for change?(Springer, 2014-08-26) Deveci, Ezgi; Yücel, Başak; Sertel Berk, Hanife Özlem; Barbaros, Umut; Türker, Fulya[No abstract available]Yayın Weight as a predictor of perceived discrimination(Springer, 2014-08-26) Deveci, Ezgi; Tekeş, Burcu[No abstract available]Yayın A parallel implementation: Real space Green's function technique(Sage Publications, 2007-04) Onat, Berk; Durukanoğlu, Sondan; Dağ, HasanWe develop an MPI-based parallel algorithm to implement the real space Green's function technique for calculating the vibrational density of states corresponding to a solid. The Hamiltonian describing the interactions between the atoms within the system is obtained from the embedded atom method. The parallel implementation speeds up calculation by an order of magnitude. The parallel implementation details and results are presented in this paper.Yayın Thermally assisted OSL from deep traps in Al2O3:C(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2010-03) Polymeris, George S.; Raptis, Spyridoula; Afouxenidis, Dimitrios; Tsirliganis, Nestor C.; Kitis, GeorgeThe present work suggests an alternative experimental method in order to not only measure the signal of the deep traps in Al2O3:C without heating the sample to temperatures greater than 500 degrees C, but also use this signal for high dose level dosimetry purposes as well. This method consists of photo transfer OSL measurements performed at elevated temperatures using the blue LEDs (470 nm, FWHM 20 nm) housed at commercial Riso TL/OSL systems, after the sample was previously heated up to 500 degrees C in order to empty its main TL dosimetric trap. The influence of this procedure on specific features such as glow curve shape and sensitivity of the main TL glow peak was also studied.Yayın Equivalent dose in quartz from young samples using the SAR protocol and the effect of preheat temperature(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2006-09) Güneç Kıyak, Nafiye; Canel, TimurMajor concerns in the dating of samples younger than a few hundred years by the optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) technique are thermal transfer and partial bleaching. Thermal transfer during preheating enhances the OSL signal due to the charge transfer from thermally sensitive, but light-insensitive, traps to optical centres of quartz and results in an overestimate in equivalent dose, especially for very young samples. In this study, the single-aliquot regenerative-dose protocol is used to obtain values of equivalent dose (D-e) from young samples taken from various environments around Istanbul. Within this framework, we aim to investigate the effect of preheat temperature on equivalent dose from 150 to 300 degrees C, the reproducibility of De measurements for young deposits and the contribution from thermal transfer of charge to the equivalent dose estimation. It was observed that the measured dose is influenced significantly by preheat temperature and the increase in the De is clearly due to thermal transfer of charge from deep thermally sensitive traps to OSL trap during preheating of the samples prior to the main OSL measurements.Yayın A descriptive study on the psychosocial characteristics of morbid obese-bariatric surgery candidates in comparison with a non-morbid obese group(Springer, 2013-08) Deveci, Ezgi; Yücel, Başak; Sertel Berk, Hanife Özlem[No abstract available]Yayın Semiregular trees with minimal Laplacian spectral radius(Elsevier Inc, 2010-04-15) Bıyıkoğlu, Türker; Leydold, JosefA semiregular tree is a tree where all non-pendant vertices have the same degree. Among all semiregular trees with fixed order and degree, a graph with minimal (adjacency/Laplacian) spectral radius is a caterpillar. Counter examples show that the result cannot be generalized to the class of trees with a given (non-constant) degree sequence.Yayın TL/OSL properties of crystalline inclusions from heavy, barytes loaded, concrete(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2010-03) Güneç Kıyak, Nafiye; Polymeris, George S.; Kitis, GeorgeIn the present work, we report the luminescence data obtained from heavy, barytes loaded, concrete containing many crystalline inclusions, extracted from a shielding block located at CERN. The use of both Thermoluminescence (TL) and Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) signals, resulting from a specific trap at about 200 degrees C, is investigated for retrospective dosimetry purposes. By applying thermal cleaning experiments the TL signal of interest was isolated. Basic TL and OSL properties as thermal and optical stability, repeatability and mainly the linearity of the TL and OSL signals as a function of beta dose were investigated. The implications of all these luminescence properties to retrospective dosimetry are also briefly discussed.Yayın LM-OSL thermal activation curves of quartz: Relevance to the thermal activation of the 110 degrees C TL glow-peak(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2008-01) Güneç Kıyak, Nafiye; Polymeris, George S.; Kitis, GeorgeThe thermally activated characteristics (TAC) of the linearly modulated optically stimulated luminescence (LM-OSL) signals of seven quartz samples from different origin were studied relative to the TAC of their respective thermoluminescence (TL) glow-peaks at 110 degrees C. Within the framework of the study the TAC behavior of the LM-OSL was investigated by measuring the OSL signal at room temperature (RT) with the 110 degrees C glow-peak present during OSL measurements, as well as, at 125 degrees C without the glow-peak at 110 degrees C removed by a cut-heat at 180 degrees C prior to OSL measurement. The LM-OSL curves were analyzed into individual components using a computerized deconvolution procedure. It was found that all individual LM-OSL components of each kind of quartz follow the TAC behavior of the respective TL glow-peak at 110 degrees C. The fourth component of the LM-OSL curve, centered at about t(m) = 400 s, appeared when the OSL measurements were performed at RT, whereas it was absent when the OSL measurement were performed at 180 degrees C. It is suggested that this component is closely related with the TL glow-peak at 110 degrees C.Yayın A health status and quality of life assessments among morbid and super morbid obese patients seeking bariatric surgery(Springer, 2014-08-26) Deveci, Ezgi; Yücel, Başak; Sertel Berk, Hanife Özlem; Barbaros, Umut; Türker, Fulya[No abstract available]
