Carburizing treatments involve longer holdings at the austenite region, which can produce a range of different prior-austenite grain sizes (PAGS) depending on the growth behavior. The PAGS influences hardenability, phase transformation kinetics and hence the final phase fraction; and therefore the final mechanical properties. Since the high-temperature austenite structure is transformed during subsequent cooling steps, controlling the formation of desired austenitic structure during carburizing treatment is difficult and particularly important. This study aims at predicting the PAGS during carburizing by using a model based on ideal grain growth law. In order to construct the validity of the model, SAE 8620H steel samples were austenitized at 3 different temperatures (850o C, 900o C, 925o C) for 3 different durations (15 min, 8 h, 24h), and then cooled at a rate of 350o C/s to ensure transformation to martensite. The PAGS of those samples were determined by metallographic examination using optical microscope. The PAGS were then determined by Heyn Intercept Method, performed on at least 5 micrographs per specimen. The results show that the grain growth behavior of the present 8620H steel can be explained by ideal grain growth law. The model parameters determined from the present experimental results agree reasonably well with the other studies on same steel grade.

Prediction of enzymatic properties of protein sequences based on the enzyme commission nomenclature
Dalkıran, Alperen; Atalay, Mehmet Volkan; Atalay, Rengül; Department of Computer Engineering (2017)
The volume of expert manual annotation of biomolecules is steady due to high costs associated with it, although the number of sequenced genomes continues to grow exponentially. Computational methods have been proposed in order to predict the attributes of gene products. The prediction of Enzyme Commission (EC) numbers is a challenging issue in this area. Enzymes have crucial roles in metabolic pathways, therefore they are widely employed in biotechnological and biomedical pplications. EC numbers are numeric...
Identification of the genes involved in phytosiderophore" synthesis and metal ion uptake in wheat using RT-PCR

Soils in many agricultural areas have high pH, resulting in low availability of zinc and iron. Plants grown on such soils suffer from either Zn or Fe deficiency or both. The efficient plant genotypes grown normally in calcerous soils were found to evolve some strategies to acquire the iron which is in insoluble form. Iron efficient graminaceous monocots release iron chelating substances, mugineic acid family phytosiderophores (MAs), in response to iron deficiency stress. Several researchers have suggested t...
Identification of quantitative trait loci influencing annual height- and diameter-increment growth in loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.)
Kaya, Zeki; Neale, D. B. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 1999-3)
Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for annual height- and diameter-increment growth were estimated in each of two three-generation loblolly pine pedigrees. Annual height-increment was measured in three consecutive years in the BASE pedigree and in four consecutive years in the QTL pedigree. Annual diameter-increment was measured only in the QTL pedigree for two consecutive years. An interval mapping-approach was used to estimate the number of QTLs, the magnitude of QTL effects, and their position on genetic lin...
Optimization of the fermentation parameters to maximize the production of cellulases and xylanases using DDGS as the main feedstock in stirred tank bioreactors
Iram, Attia; Çekmecelioğlu, Deniz; Demirci, Ali (2022-01-01)
Lignocellulolytic enzymes such as cellulases and xylanases are needed on the industrial scales for low cost production of biofuels and the other value-added products from lignocellulosic biomass such as distillers' dried grains with solubles (DDGS). Optimization of fermentation variables such as agitation, aeration, and inoculum size for fungal enzyme production by submerged fermentation can enhance the enzyme production levels. Therefore, this research focuses on the statistical optimization of fungal inoc...
