In this article, modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) is discussed briefly. The need for MAP, types of MAP systems, MAP gases, and their uses are described. Application of MAP on meat, poultry, fresh produce, and seafood products is explained with examples. The recommended levels for the gas compositions for different food systems are given. A simple mathematical approach for designing MAP systems using the optimum gas composition data is also introduced.

Numerical modeling of balçova geothermal field
Polat, Can; Parlaktuna, Mahmut; Department of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering (2010)
The aim of this study is to construct a numerical reservoir model for Balçova geothermal field, which is located in the İzmir bay area of the Aegean coast. A commercial numerical simulation program, TOUGH2 was utilized with a graphical interface, PETRASIM to model the Balçova geothermal field. Natural state modeling of the field was carried out based on the conceptual model of the field, then history matching of production – injection practices of the field was established for the period of 1996 – 2008. The...
Characterisation and mitigation of beam-induced backgrounds observed in the ATLAS detector during the 2011 proton-proton run
Aad, G.; et. al. (IOP Publishing, 2013-07-01)
This paper presents a summary of beam-induced backgrounds observed in the ATLAS detector and discusses methods to tag and remove background contaminated events in data. Trigger-rate based monitoring of beam-related backgrounds is presented. The correlations of backgrounds with machine conditions, such as residual pressure in the beam-pipe, are discussed. Results from dedicated beam-background simulations are shown, and their qualitative agreement with data is evaluated. Data taken during the passage of unpa...
Frequency-Domain Estimation of a Transfer Matrix of an Uncommon Quadrotor in Hover
Baskin, Mehmet; Leblebicioğlu, Mehmet Kemal (2022-07-01)
In this article, system identification of an uncommon quadrotor in hover is discussed. Two counter-rotating big rotors on the longitudinal axis and two counter-rotating small tilt rotors on the lateral axis form this quadrotor configuration. First, the nonlinear dynamic model of this vehicle is derived from Newton-Euler formulation. Next, using the approximate linear hover model and the suitable rotor mixing matrix for axes decoupling, simplified attitude dynamics of this quadrotor are obtained. However, th...
Resource efficient and cleaner production in selected foundries through environmental performance evaluation
Usta Benli, Ayça; Demirer, Göksel Niyazi; Department of Environmental Engineering (2017)
The main objective of this study was to develop Resource Efficient and Cleaner Production (RECP) measures for the ferrous foundry sector. For this purpose, environmental performance evaluation and benchmarking studies were conducted in six ferrous foundries. The environmental performance was calculated by using environmental performance indicators of specific energy and water use, metal yield and sand regeneration ratio. The gap between the benchmarks and actual performances revealed the improvement potenti...
Terahertz Time-Domain Study of Silver Nanoparticles Synthesized by Laser Ablation in Organic Liquid
Koral, Can; ORTAÇ, Bülend; Altan, Hakan (2016-07-01)
We report the investigation of laser-synthesized Ag nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) in an organic liquid environment by using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) technique. Colloidal Ag-NPs with an average diameter of 10 nm in two-propanol solution through nanosecond pulsed laser ablation were synthesized. THz-TDS measurements were performed on different volumetric concentration of Ag-NPs suspensions placed in 2-mm path length quartz cuvette. Due to the dispersive and highly absorptive nature of the nano li...
