Composite (biphasic) mixtures of two of the most important inorganic phases of synthetic bone applications-namely, calcium hydroxyapatite (Ca-10(PO4)(6)(OH)(2) (HA)) and tricalcium phosphate (Ca-3(PO4)(2) (TCP))-were prepared as submicrometer-sized, chemically homogeneous, and high-purity ceramic powders by using a novel, one-step chemical precipitation technique. Starting materials of calcium nitrate tetrahydrate and diammonium hydrogen phosphate salts that were dissolved in appropriate amounts in distilled water were used during powder precipitation runs. The composite bioceramic powders were prepared with compositions of 20%-90% HA (the balance being the TCP phase) with increments of 10%, The pellets prepared from the composite powders were sintered to almost full density in a dry air atmosphere at a temperature of similar to 1200 degrees C. Phase-evolution characteristics of the composite powders were studied via X-ray diffractometry as a function of temperature in the range of 1000 degrees-1300 degrees C, The sintering behavior of the composite bioceramics were observed by using scanning electron microscopy. Chemical analysis of the composite samples was performed by using the inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy technique.

Complexes, [Rh-2(B-B)(4)L-2](n) (B-B = CH3CO2-, L = CH3CN, H2O, Cl-, Br-, SCN-; B-B CO32-, SO42-, H2PO4-, L = H2O, Cl-, Br-, SCN-) were prepared and their cyclic voltammograms (CV) and electronic absorption spectra were measured in solution. The CV of the complexes exhibits a reversible one-electron transfer from a metal-based orbital. Constant potential electrolysis at the oxidation peak potential of [Rh-2(O2CCH3)(4)(NCCH3)(2)] in acetonitrile yielded [Rh-2(O2CCH3)(4)(NCCH3)(2)](+), a mixed valent Rh(II)-R...
Preparation and characterization of surface modified gamma-Fe2O3 (maghemite)-silica nanocomposites used for the purification of benzaldehyde lyase
TURAL, Bilsen; Sopaci, S. Betul; Özkan, Necati; Demir, Ayhan Sıtkı; Volkan, Mürvet (2011-08-01)
gamma-Fe2O3 (maghemite)-silica nanocomposite particles were synthesized using a sol-gel method. The condensation products of 3-glycidoxy propyltrimethoxy silane (GPTMS) and nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) were introduced onto the surfaces of the gamma-Fe2O3 silica nanocomposite particles and subsequently, these modified surfaces were complexed with cobalt (Co+2) metal ions. A possibility of using these surface modified gamma-Fe2O3-silica particles for the purification of 6 x histidine tagged recombinant benzald...
Investigation of Radiant Millimeter Wave/Terahertz Radiation from Low Infrared Signature Targets
Aytac, B.; Alkus, U.; Sivasligil, M.; Sahin, A. B.; Altan, Hakan (2017-09-11)
Millimeter (mm) and sub-mm wave radiation is increasingly becoming a region of interest as better methods are developed to detect in this wavelength range. The development of sensitive focal plane array (FPA) architectures as well as single pixel scanners has opened up a new field of passive detection and imaging. Spectral signatures of objects, a long standing area of interest in the Short Wave Infrared (SWIR), Mid-Wave (MWIR) and Long Wave-IR (LWIR) bands can now be assessed in the mm-wave/terahertz (THz)...
Modeling of the dynamic delamination of L-shaped unidirectional laminated composites
Gozluklu, Burak; Çöker, Demirkan (2012-03-01)
One of the widely used geometrically complex parts in advanced commercial aircraft is the L-shaped composite. Due to the sharp curved geometry, interlaminar opening stresses are induced and delamination occurs under considerable mode-mixities in L-shaped beams. Dynamic phenomena during delamination initiation and propagation of L-shaped beams are investigated using dynamic (explicit) finite element analysis in conjunction with cohesive zone methods. The 2-D model consists of 24 plies of unidirectional CFRP ...
PERIODIC COVARIANCE STATIONARITY OF MULTIVARIATE PERIODIC AUTOREGRESSIVE MOVING AVERAGE PROCESSES
ULA, TA (American Geophysical Union (AGU), 1990-05-01)
Periodic (covariance) Stationarity conditions for multivariate periodic autoregressive moving average (PARMA) processes are investigated. It follows from a previous work that a necessary and sufficient condition for the periodic Stationarity of a multivariate periodic process is the (covariance) Stationarity of the “lumped” vector process which contains the periodic vectors as its elements. It is shown that for univariate and multivariate PARMA processes, even with periodically varying orders, the lumped pr...
