In Turkey, majority of industrial facilities are composed of precast buildings. However, precast buildings have suffered extensive damage during Kocaeli and Duzce (1999) and Adana-Ceyhan (1998) earthquakes. Therefore, in this study, fragilities of existing building stock and damage probabilities of precast buildings were studied. For this purpose, building inventories were prepared and variation of structural parameters was determined by investigating the design project of 65 precast buildings constructed in Denizli, Turkey. Twelve analysis models which reflect the stiffness, strength and ductility properties of building inventory were constructed. After the definition of strain based displacement limits and corresponding damage states for buildings, displacement demands were calculated by using non linear time history analysis. During the analyses 360 strong ground motion records were used. Exceedence ratios of concerned damage limits was calculated by checking the displacement demands and then PGV based fragility curves were constructed. Efficiency of strength, stiffness and ductility properties of existing precast buildings were investigated by comparing the fragility curves. The results have shown that the most effective parameters that govern the damage probabilities of precast buildings are stiffness and ductility. It was also stated that the results of fragility analysis and damage and failure observations performed after Kocaeli and Duzce Earthquakes are compatible.

Cadmium (Cd) is non-essential heavy metal that negatively affects plant metabolism. Nitric oxide (NO) is an increasingly important molecule for plant metabolism that makes signaling. In this study, it was aimed to investigate the alleviating effect of sodium nitroprusside (SNP) application as NO donor in white poplar (Populus alba) under Cd stress conditions. SNP and without SNP treatments increased the Cd accumulation in root tissue. While photosynthetic pigments (Chl a, Chl b, Chl a+b, and carotenoid) content decreased by only Cd application, SNP+Cd application decreased the rate of photosynthetic pigments reduction. When the results of Cd and Cd+SNP applications were evaluated for mineral (Fe, Zn, Mn and Cu) uptake, it was found that the positive effect of SNP was heterogeneously affected. Depending on SNP application, it was found that malondialdehyde (MDA) amount decreased in leaf in 100 µM Cd applications while hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) amount decreased in 100 and 500 µM Cd applications. When antioxidant enzyme activities were examined, it was found that catalase (CAT) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) enzyme activities increased with 100 µM SNP applications under all Cd applications. As a result, it was found that SNP application under Cd stress generally supports physiological processes positively in white poplar, suggesting that NO molecule plays important alleviating roles in plant metabolism.

In 2012, Sulaiman [7] proved integral inequalities concerning reverse of Holder's. In this paper two results are given. First one is further improvement of the reverse Hölder inequality. We note that many existing inequalities related to the Hölder inequality can be proved via obtained this inequality in here. The second is further generalization of Sulaiman's integral inequalities concerning reverses of Holder's [7].

In this paper, a rule based Mamdani type fuzzy logic model for prediction of slippage at maximum tensile strength and slippage at rupture of structural lightweight concretes were discussed. In the model steel rebar diameters and development lengths were used as inputs. The FL model and experimental results, the coefficient of determination R2, the Root Mean Square Error were used as evaluation criteria for comparison. It was concluded that FL was practical method for predicting slippage at maximum tensile strength and slippage at rupture of structural lightweight concretes.

In this paper, we study ${\varphi}$-recurrent almost cosymplectic (${\kappa},{\mu}$)-space and prove that it is an ${\eta}$-Einstein manifold with constant coefficients. Next, we show that a three-dimensional locally ${\varphi}$-recurrent almost cosymplectic (${\kappa},{\mu}$)-space is the space of constant curvature.

This paper aims to investigate characterizations on parameters k₁, k₂, k₃, k₄, k₅, l₁, l₂, l₃, and l₄ to find relation between the class of 𝓗(k, l, m, n, o) hypergeometric functions defined by $$5_F_4\[{\array{k_1,\;k_2,\;k_3,\;k_4,\;k_5\\l_1,\;l_2,\;l_3,\;l_4}}\;:\;z\]=\sum\limits_{n=2}^{\infty}\frac{(k_1)_n(k_2)_n(k_3)_n(k_4)_n(k_5)_n}{(l_1)_n(l_2)_n(l_3)_n(l_4)_n(1)_n}z^n$$. We need to find k, l, m and n that lead to the necessary and sufficient condition for the function zF([W]), G = z(2 - F([W])) and $H_1[W]=z^2{\frac{d}{dz}}(ln(z)-h(z))$ to be in 𝓢^*(2^-r), r is a positive integer in the open unit disc 𝒟 = {z : |z| < 1, z ∈ ℂ} with $$h(z)=\sum\limits_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{(k)_n(l)_n(m)_n(n)_n(1+\frac{k}{2})_n}{(\frac{k}{2})_n(1+k-l)_n(1+k-m)_n(1+k-n)_nn(1)_n}z^n$$ and $$[W]=\[{\array{k,\;1+{\frac{k}{2}},\;l,\;m,\;n\\{\frac{k}{2}},\;1+k-l,\;1+k-m,\;1+k-n}}\;:\;z\]$$.
