In coordination chemistry, mixed valency is widespread, from superconductors to minerals, magnetic molecular clusters and even enzymes. Mixed valency occurs when the same chemical element is found in two different oxidation ...

The size of the a-substituent is expected to play a role in the propagation reaction in free radical polymerization. The possibility of the approach of the propagating radical to the monomer can be reduced due to the ...

In this thesis the development of three novel models at two di erent scales are presented for population dynamics in cell cultures. Biological knowledge and empirical observations are used to design an agent-based discrete-time ...

To minimize work-in-process, or equivalently mean flow time of capital has been an emphatic objective in production. It deserves still greater attention in today's Turkish Economy governed by monetaristic austerity measures. ...

In recent years,the semiconductor electronic industry has entered the Very Large Scale Integration(VLSI) era, in which individual integrated circuits are characterized by increasingly complex circuitry and technology. ...

Biomimetic research on the development of bioadhesives mimicing the adhesive proteins secreted by blue mussels have become very popular in the recent years. The most important feature of the adhesive proteins is that they ...

Thin film materials have recently drawn a great attention for their wide range of applications in nano- and micro-scale devices. To overcome thermal issues associated with these devices, thin film materials must be ...

In this thesis, we study the modular approach to the Fermat’s equation xp+yp = zp, where x,y and z are co-prime integers, and p is a prime, and some generalizations. After reviewing and explaining how the modular approach ...

In this thesis, we investigate representations of GLp2,pqby using indecomposable projective modules for GLp2,pq. Actually, this is pure module theoretic approach in parallel with [1] since we do not refer any character ...
