Forest functions traditionally included wood production, protection and forest recreation. The twofold role of forests as both sources and sinks of greenhouse gases makes their influence on the climate extremely significant. This fact has led to climate chan…

This paper examines the development of sustainable architectural design strategies in office buildings from 1970 to the present. Drawing on literature, policies, and historical examples, it traces the transformation of sustainability from a loosely defined env…

This review explores the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in enhancing energy efficiency within heritage buildings, focusing on balancing sustainability goals with the preservation of historical and architectural integrity. AI technologies such as Building…

A universally applicable “optimal photobioreactor” design has yet to be established, as the success of such systems varies depending on the algal species used, environmental conditions, and intended applications. Meanwhile, the accelerating pace of climate cha…

This study proposes a climate-adaptive framework for modular micro-living units as a construction-based response to growing urban challenges related to climate resilience, densification, and housing affordability. The design integrates prefabricated cross-lami…

This study emphasizes the significance of integrating Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), a systematic method used to evaluate the environmental impacts of a process throughout its entire life cycle, as a vital tool for cultural heritage conservation in Türkiye. The …

Moda endüstrisinde hızlanan üretim ve tüketim döngüsü ciddi çevresel sorunlara yol açmaktadır. Bu nedenle sürdürülebilir tasarım ve üretim uygulamaları büyük önem kazanmıştır. Temelleri 1960’lı yıllarda atılan sürdürülebilirlik hareketi, moda endüstrisinde çev…

Energy demand in the 21st century is increasing continually. This increase in energy demand is one of the factors affecting the increase in universal problems. Energy is produced using both renewable and non-renewable resources. Therefore, energy consumption…

A novel continues plasma reactor with rotating electrodes was designed and constructed to investigate methane decomposition to hydrogen and solid carbon. This new reactor structure causes stable operation. Hydrogen is main part of gaseous products which cont…

Molecular interactions have been a hot topic in chemistry because of their importance in different processes from biological activities [1]. Quantum dots with strong and easily tunable luminescence and high emission quantum yields have become well-established …

Ortodontik tedavi sırasında diş hareketini etkileyen önemli faktörlerden biri sürtünme kuvvetidir. Sürtünme kuvvetine etki eden faktörlere müdahale edilebilirse ortodontik tedavinin süresi ve başarısı ile ilgili olumlu tahminler yapmak mümkün olacaktır. Sürtün…

DC-DC boost converters are usually used so as to increase voltage in battery charging of electrical vehicles, power factor correction circuits and solar photo voltaic panels etc. applications. The control of these converter types is realized with Pulse Width M…

Since the design of the first high rise building, the “Home Insurance Building” erected in Chicago in 1884-1885 only with 11 floors, new technologies encourage the designers to build taller and slender buildings penetrating through the sky. In the history, h…

Cities consume over two-thirds of the world’s energy and account for more than 70% of global CO₂ emissions. Given these negative impacts, cities are major contributors to climate change, one of the most pressing challenges of the 21st century. As dynamic organ…

This paper explores the role of archival study in exploring site integrity within the Historic Urban Landscape (HUL) framework, using the case of Islamic heritage sites in Java, Indonesia. In contexts where material traces have been lost or obscured, archival …

Microalgae are recognized as environmentally sustainable and biologically renewable resources for the production of high-value products such as biomass, biofuels, dietary supplements, and pharmaceuticals. However, their large-scale cultivation is highly sensit…

Enerji verimliliği alanındaki çalışmalar hız kesmeden artarken insanların konfor beklentileri de her geçen gün daha fazla yükselmektedir. Bununla birlikte, akıllı binaların sayısı da teknolojik gelişmelere paralel olarak artmaktadır. Günümüzde akıllı binalar h…

Refrigeration and air-conditioning systems consume about 15% of global electricity, and 46% of energy used in household and commercial buildings belongs to heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems. Vapor-compression technologies dominate the HV…

Building automation and control systems (BACs) allow plants in buildings to be controlled and managed, thus increasing the users' comfort and reducing the operation and maintenance costs. As far as the lighting services are concerned, control systems offer an …

Bu çalışmada yüksek aşınma direncine sahip Hardox 500 ve Hardox 600 çeliklerinin abrasiv aşınma dirençleri incelenmiştir. Her iki malzemeden 10 mm çapında ve 25 mm uzunluğunda numuneler hazırlanmıştır. Bu numunelerin aşınma davranışları pin-on disk test cihazı…
