This study has three main objectives. First, it provides a theoretical framework that challenges the mainstream approaches to allow for a new reading of the Cyprus Question. Second, it identifies continuities, transformations and tendencies within different historical periods by analyzing the positions of the various actors and the international conjecture in order to offer a correct reading of all previous settlement proposals and indicate the basis on which perceptions and policies were constructed and why the latter failed repeatedly to resolve the Cyprus issue. Continuities are those factors that created the continuum of the crisis and were concretely reflected in the successive failures of different peace talks, plans and initiatives; examining these means analyzing the hegemonic projects of the various actors involved. Examining transformations means looking specifically at how and why these hegemonic projects changed. Examining tendencies means pointing out the latest developments such as accumulated sovereignty, shared sovereignty as protectorate, Taiwan Model, return to 1960, integration through class strategy and independent TRNC and exploring the logical consequences of developments. Third, this study focuses on the European Union’s hegemonic projects related to Cyprus how they emerged, the relationship between these projects and the domestic and international political conjectures, their aspects of continuity and reasons for transformation and their successes and failures. This thesis argues that all the previous plans and initiatives by international and local actors, latest being the EU-initiated Annan Plan, led not only to failure, but transformed the Cyprus Question from one paradigm to another.

The Effect of DC link filter design and compensation on dynamic performance of vector controlled drive /
Kayhan, Murat; Ertan, Hulusi Bülent; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2015)
This study has three objectives. The first is to identify parameters that affect the dynamic performance of a vector controlled motor drive. The second is to investigate compensation methods to eliminate effect of DC link voltage variation on drive performance. The last is to identify a DC link design method so that dynamic performance of vector controlled drive can be improved.
The impact of affective constraints on shaping environmental literacy Model testing using mediator and moderator variables
Öztürk, Nilay; Teksöz, Gaye (2016-04-01)
The aims of this study were; first to investigate the mediating effects of pre-service teachers’ (PTs) attitude toward environment on the relationship between their environmental concern and environmental responsibility, and second, to explore the moderating effect of gender on the relationships between; PTs’ environmental concern and responsibility; and environmental attitude and responsibility. A total of 1626 PTs completed the Environmental Literacy Survey. The findings revealed that PTs’ attitude had a ...
Modelling Energy Consumption of the Republic of Serbia using Linear Regression and Artificial Neural Network Technique
Protic, Milan; Fathurrahman, Fahman; Raos, Miomir (Mechanical Engineering Faculty in Slavonski Brod, 2019-02-01)
The objectives of the study are twofold. First, we aim to examine the most influential socio-economic indicators to explain energy consumption in Republic of Serbia. The second objective is to develop models that are able to predict the future energy consumption in the Republic of Serbia. This could be the first important step towards proper energy management in the country. Several potential socio-economic indicators are selected to be the independent variables. Regression analysis is conducted to select t...
Kinematic analysis of a slider crank mechanism via a pre–calibrated vision system developed by using two commercial cameras
Eralp, Mehmet Hilmi; Soylu, Reşit; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2014)
There are two main objectives of this study. The first objective is to develop a vision system consisting of 2 inexpensive commercial cameras. In general, by self – calibration methods reconstruction of a scene by using uncalibrated images is performed up to a scale only. However, in this thesis reconstruction of a scene is to be performed such that one obtains the actual values of the distances in the scene. For this purpose, it is assumed that the extrinsic parameters of the cameras are known. Therefore, ...
The Use of transitions, frame markers and code glosses in Turkish EFL learners’ opinion paragraphs
Sancak, Diğdem; Gracanın Yüksek, Martına; Department of English Language Teaching (2019)
The aim of this study is threefold: (i) to identify the types, frequencies and functions of the interactive metadiscourse devices such as transitions, frame markers and code glosses employed by Turkish learners of English in their English opinion paragraphs; (ii) to discover the reasons for the employment and avoidance of those markers by the Turkish EFL writers; (iii) to uncover the effect of teaching materials on the use of the scrutinized interactive metadiscourse markers. To fulfill these aims, data fro...
