It is known that products made of polymer materials or especially polymer materials with glass fiber and carbon fiber are used in many different areas such as automotive, aerospace, and defense. At this point, studies in the literature have gained momentum due to the combination of fiber-reinforced polymer materials emerging as a result of technological developments and industrial demands, and the fused deposition modeling (FDM) method providing the production of parts in desired sizes and complexity. Residual stresses and distortions occurring in polymer-based composite parts produced with FDM are among the problems that should be minimized. In this study, the influences of fiber ratio (%10, %15, and %20), infill rate (%20, %50, and %80), and infill pattern (line, honeycomb, and triangle) on the residual stresses and warpages generating in impact test specimens produced from glass fiber reinforced ABS filaments by fused deposition modeling were tried to be determined with the Digimat 2021 program. As a result of the findings, it was determined that the distortion values decreased and the thermal residual stress values went up with the increase in fiber ratio and infill rate. In addition, it can be reported that the distortions that bring out as a result of the separation of the produced parts from the production platform are caused by the high deformations condensing at the lower corner points of the parts.

In the study, the electrochemical characteristics of carvedilol were determined by cyclic voltammetry and square wave voltammetry on carbon paste electrode with zinc oxide nanoparticles at pH 8.0 in Britton Robinson buffer. The adsorption characteristics of the molecule on the modified electrode and the electron number accompanying the electrode reaction were calculated. In addition, a new square wave anodic adsorptive stripping voltammetry process was suggested for the determination of carvedilol drug samples. The linear concentration range and detection limit of the process were found to be 0.07 µM–2.61 µM and 0.09 µM, respectively. Recovery studies of CAR in the pharmaceutical sample were performed to check the accuracy of the developed process. With the developed process, results with high reliability, reproduceability, accuracy and precision were obtained for the determination of CAR in pharmaceutical samples.

Among the most significant characteristics of human beings is their ability to feel emotions. In recent years, human-machine interface (HM) research has centered on ways to empower the classification of emotions. Mainly, human-computer interaction (HCI) research concentrates on methods that enable computers to reveal the emotional states of humans. In this research, an emotion detection system based on visual IAPPS pictures through EMOTIV EPOC EEG signals was proposed. We employed EEG signals acquired from channels (AF3, F7, F3, FC5, T7, P7, O1, O2, P8, T8, FC6, F4, F8, AF4) for individuals in a visual induced setting (IAPS fear and neutral aroused pictures). The wavelet packet transform (WPT) combined with the wavelet entropy algorithm was applied to the EEG signals. The entropy values were extracted for every two classes. Finally, these feature matrices were fed into the SVM (Support Vector Machine) type classifier to generate the classification model. Also, we evaluated the proposed algorithm as area under the ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristic) curve, or simply AUC (Area under the curve) was utilized as an alternative single-number measure. Overall classification accuracy was obtained at 91.0%. For classification, the AUC value given for SVM was 0.97. The calculations confirmed that the proposed approaches are successful for the detection of the emotion of fear stimuli via EMOTIV EPOC EEG signals and that the accuracy of the classification is acceptable.

In the present work, 3D-printed wound dressings containing different amounts of Centella Asiatica extract were synthesized via dual-crosslinking method. Methacrylic anhydride modified gelatin (Gel-MA) and pectin (Pec) were chosen as the base material for dressings. A dual crosslinked network was formed with Gel-MA photo-crosslinking using Irgacure 2959 and Pectin (Pec) psychical-crosslinking using Ca++ ions. Meanwhile, the developed dual-crosslinked hydrogel dressings were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and mechanical, swelling, in vitro degradation as well as ex vivo bioadhesion tests. It has been observed that the preapred dressings provide good bioadhesion on the chicken skin. Moreover, MTT assay revealed cell viability of Gel-MA/Pec hydrogel dressings containing Centella Asiatica extract. The results presented the dressings as a promising biomaterial to be used for wound healing purposes, which should be further investigated in future.

An origami-based parallel mechanism is an excellent solution for various applications where small-scale, low profile and foldability are needed. These mechanisms are composed of rigid and flexible layers designed according to layer-by-layer fabrication methods. In addition, it becomes important to design functional layers that provide user feedback. Here, the design and fabrication of an origami-based 3 Degree-of-Freedom (DoF) Delta mechanism, which has the same traditional kinematics as a Delta mechanism, are presented. A sensor layer was designed composed of 3 strain gauges to measure the angular position of the actuated arm of the mechanism. The strain-gauge patterns were printed on a special Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) using Silver nanoparticle ink with a commercial desktop printer. The integration of these sensors has been studied by placing them in different locations between rigid layers. The sensors' outputs were presented when subjected to step and sinusoidal inputs of the actuated arm. The experiment results show that the developed sensor layer can track the angular position changes of the actuated lower arm, which is a promising result to be used in a control loop in the feature.

The synthesis of novel bis(3-carbazoly1)methane linked bis-benzimidazoles is described. Construction of symmetrical bis-benzimidazoles on the bis-carbazolylmethane scaffold was succeeded by condensation reaction of benzene-1,2-diamine derivatives with bis(9-ethyl-9H-carbazole-3-carbaldehyde). The structural analysis of the targeted compounds 4-7 were confirmed by NMR, FT-IR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The thermal stability of final products 4-7 was also studied by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA).

It is quite difficult for visually impaired individuals to read a physically printed material. It is a necessity to provide information flow and communication between visually impaired individuals and other individuals. For this purpose, an alphabet has been developed for visually impaired individuals. With this alphabet, which is called the Braille alphabet, it is possible for visually impaired individuals to access written culture. There are special letters in the alphabet designed for the visually impaired. With the development of technology, studies in the field of Braille alphabet have increased. Optical character recognition technology can convert the letters on files such as pdf, pictures, photos into understandable data by selecting and separating them. Speech recognition algorithm, computer, tablet, mobile phone, voice recorder devices, etc. It is the process of detecting and recognizing the human voice through a microphone with technological products. Within the scope of the study, a device has been developed for Braille alphabet by using optical character recognition technology and speech recognition algorithm. First, the images of each page of the books that were requested to be translated into Braille alphabet were taken. Then, a transformation was performed using a specific character set with the optical character recognition algorithm. Audiobooks, on the other hand, were first converted into text and then into Braille alphabet using speech recognition algorithm. With these converted characters, a physical hardware device has been developed to display Braille letters that visually impaired individuals can read faster.

Paracetamol is a popular analgesic drug and its overdose may cause toxicity in the kidney. Prunus laurocerasus L. (PL) is an important folklore medicinal plant that has antioxidant properties. This study explores effects of PL fruit water and ethanol-water extracts administrations on oxidative stress in paracetamol-induced nephrotoxicity. For this purpose, 30 rats were divided into 5 groups: control, negative control (2 g/kg paracetamol), PL fruit water extract (400 mg/kg PLW+ 2 g/kg paracetamol), PL fruit ethanol-water extract (400 mg/kg PLEW+ 2 g/kg paracetamol) and positive control (150 mg/kg NAC+ 2 g/kg paracetamol). 24 hours after the paracetamol induction, animals were sacrificed and oxidative parameters were analyzed spectrophotometrically in kidney tissue. PLW and PLEW extracts decreased MDA and NOx levels and increased SOD and CAT activities in paracetamol-induced nephrotoxicity. PL fruit extracts can restore the oxidative changes caused by paracetamol.

This study includes the design, synthesis and characterization of 1,2-phenylenediamine (o-PDA) functionalized maleic anhydride (MA)-vinyl acetate (VA) copolymer-based conjugate to develop a new formulation. The 1,2-phenylenediamine molecule is a fluorescent dye that allows designing new chemotherapeutic polymeric molecules. Poly(maleic anhydride-alt-vinyl acetate) [Poly(MA-alt-VA)] was obtained via charge transfer complex (CTC) radical polymerization presence of methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), utilizing benzoyl peroxide (BPO) free-radical initiator at 80 °C, as a potential functional polymeric carrier. Structural characterization of the surface functionalized poly(MA-alt-VA)/1,2-PDA conjugate was performed by Attenuated Total Reflectance-Fourier Transform Infrared (ATR-FTIR) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H-NMR). Spectroscopic methods and water solubility results confirmed that the conjugation took place successfully after the ring opening reaction by the amidation mechanism.

This work focuses on the capacitated vehicle routing problem. In this work, a real-time application is developed using online real-world data for mobile devices have IOS and Android operating systems. The fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm is used to group the demand points and the ant colony optimization algorithm is employed to determine the best route within each group. The customer demand points and distances between these points are obtained via Google Places and Google Directions APIs. The deviations in the route that result from the environmental and road conditions are identified immediately with the help of global positioning system technology allowing the route suggestions to be made. The developed application was evaluated on two datasets for testing. The test results showed that this real-time application can be used to find the optimum route for the capacitated vehicle routing problem and follow the route optimally.
