We are interested in developing strategies to bridge (staple) enantiomerically pure acyclic alleno-acetylenic oligomers to enhance their conformational preferences for helical secondary structures, which are postulated to be at the origin of their exceptional chiroptical properties. We found that ring-closing metathesis (RCM), which has been used for the stapling of peptide helices, failed with an acyclic alleno-acetylene dimer decorated with lateral olefinic side chains. Instead, enyne RCM to an enantiomerically pure dienyne occurred. We switched to the introduction of diacetylene-containing bridges and report here the 15-step synthesis of a moderately strained, enantiomerically pure cyclohexa-1,3,9,11-tetrayne with an oxidative acetylenic coupling in the key step. The chiroptical properties of the new compounds are discussed.

Investigation of the relationship of seismic intensity measures and the accumulation of damage on concrete gravity dams using incremental dynamic analysis
Soysal, BERAT FEYZA; Binici, Barış; Arıcı, Yalın (2016-04-25)
Nonlinear analysis tools are gaining prominence for the design and evaluation of concrete gravity dams. The performance limits of concrete gravity dams within the framework of performance based design are challenging to determine in comparison to those used for the assessments based on linear elastic analyses. The uncertainty in quantifying the behavior of these systems and the strong dependence of the behavior on the ground motion play an important role. The purpose of the study is to quantify the damage l...
Development of a Navier Stokes Solver for high fidelity simulatiom of wind turbine noise
Cengiz, Kenan; Özyörük, Yusuf (null; 2013-09-11)
In this report, the first stage of the development process of a flow solver is presented. The solver is intended for high-fidelity simulation of wind turbine aeroacoustics. At this stage of the code development, compressible Euler solver, which has several discretization enhancements for convection term, is tested, validated and discussed. The enhancements include symmetry preservation of the discretized forms, fourth order accuracy and optimization for low-dispersion (DRP), all of which would be quite bene...
Enabling local circular economy practices through maker symbiosis: the case of Istanbul
Bakırlıoğlu, Yekta; Ramirez Galleguillos , Maria Laura; Coşkun, Aykut; Yantaç, Asim Evren; Çay, Damla; Bensason, Ivon (2021-05-26)
Pop-Machina H2020 project aims to explore the potentials for local circular economies through collaborative production in seven pilot cities. This endeavour requires initiating a sustainable maker symbiosis, through activating links among various maker ecosystem actors. This paper provides a snapshot of the initial steps of this, i.e. the deployment of a series of online participatory design tools engaging citizens and other maker ecosystem actors to collaboratively design pilot activities through the case ...
Design for verification for asynchronously communicating Web services
Betin Can, Aysu; TEVFİK, Bultan (2005-05-14)
We present a design for verification approach to developing reliable web services. We focus on composite web services which consist of asynchronously communicating peers. Our goal is to automatically verify properties of interactions among such peers. We propose a design pattern that eases the development of such web services and enables a modular, assume-guarantee style verification strategy. In the proposed design pattern, each peer is associated with a behavioral interface description which specifies how...
Investigation of BIM potentials on seismic resiliency of drywall systems during earthquake
İlipınar, Damlanur; Ay, Bekir Özer; Department of Building Science in Architecture (2019)
Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a promising technology on resilient design. The use of BIM technology could enable seismic design and installation of nonstructural elements. This study discusses the usefulness of BIM in seismic design and assessment of lightweight steel stud gypsum board partition walls (drywall systems). This study also presents the potential of BIM in order to disseminate the information about seismic demands on drywalls in reinforced concrete (RC) structures among stakeholders du...
