Article Citation - WoS: 19Citation - Scopus: 23The (2+1)-Dimensional Hyperbolic Nonlinear Schrodinger Equation and Its Optical Solitons(Amer inst Mathematical Sciences-aims, 2021) Hosseini, Kamyar; Salahshour, Soheil; Sadri, Khadijeh; Mirzazadeh, Mohammad; Park, Choonkil; Ahmadian, Ali; Baleanu, Umitru; 56389A comprehensive study on the (2+1)-dimensional hyperbolic nonlinear Schrodinger (2D-HNLS) equation describing the propagation of electromagnetic fields in self-focusing and normally dispersive planar wave guides in optics is conducted in the current paper. To this end, after reducing the 2D-HNLS equation to a one-dimensional nonlinear ordinary differential (1D-NLOD) equation in the real regime using a traveling wave transformation, its optical solitons are formally obtained through a group of well-established methods such as the exponential and Kudryashov methods. Some graphical representations regarding optical solitons that are categorized as bright and dark solitons are considered to clarify the dynamics of the obtained solutions. It is noted that some of optical solitons retrieved in the current study are new and have been not retrieved previously.Article Citation - WoS: 32Citation - Scopus: 43A 3d Virtual Environment for Training Soccer Referees(Elsevier Science Bv, 2019) Isler, Veysi; O'Connor, Rory V.; Clarke, Paul M.; Gulec, Ulas; Yilmaz, Murat; 47439Emerging digital technologies are being used in many ways by and in particular virtual environments provide new opportunities to gain experience on real-world phenomena without having to live the actual real-world experiences. In this study, a quantitative research approach supported by expert validation interviews was conducted to determine the availability of virtual environments in the training of soccer referees. The aim is to design a virtual environment for training purposes, representing a real-life soccer stadium to allow the referees to manage matches in an atmosphere similar to the real stadium atmosphere. At this point, the referees have a chance to reduce the number of errors that they make in real life by experiencing difficult decisions that they encounter during the actual match via using the virtual stadium. In addition, the decisions and reactions of the referees during the virtual match were observed with the number of different fans in the virtual stadium to understand whether the virtual stadium created a real stadium atmosphere for the referees. For this evaluation, Presence Questionnaire (PQ) and Immersive Tendencies Questionnaire (ITQ) were applied to the referees to measure their involvement levels. In addition, a semi-structure interview technique was utilized in order to understand participants' opinions about the system. These interviews show that the referees have a positive attitude towards the system since they can experience the events occurred in the match as a first person instead of watching them from camera as a third person. The findings of current study suggest that virtual environments can be used as a training tool to increase the experience levels of the soccer referees since they have an opportunity to decide about the positions without facing the real-world risks.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1A Review of Passive Design Strategies and Their Effect on Thermal Resilience in Low-Income Households(Elsevier Science S.A., 2025) Kokatnur, Tejas; Ferreira, Shane; Akkoc, Busra Karadeniz; Markarian, Elin; Nojedehi, Pedram; Qiblawi, Seif; Azar, ElieClimate change is causing more frequent and extreme weather events (e.g., heat waves and ice storms) that disproportionately impact low-income households with poor building conditions. Passive design strategies offer a promising solution to enhance building thermal resilience; however, little is known about their actual application and effectiveness in low-income households under different climate conditions. This paper presents a scoping literature review of 123 articles that evaluated passive design strategies applied to low-income housing contexts. The detailed article review shows that wall-and roof-related passive design strategies (e.g., insulation, sealing) are the most frequently studied and effective strategies, increasing comfort hours and energy savings with a wide variation of up to 24 % and 67 %, respectively. Combined strategies often outperformed individual strategies. In contrast, some studies reported unintended consequences following the adoption of passive design strategies, such as increases in energy demand reaching as high as 50 %. Such findings shed light on the need for design processes to consider multiple performance metrics, as well as behavioural and socio-economic factors that require more in-depth investigation, such as energy poverty and rebound effects. Detailed recommendations are finally provided to guide future research and applications on the topic, covering the need to (i) explore and combine underrepresented thermal resilience strategies and metrics, (ii) follow more standardized reporting practices, (iii) quantify costs and identify implementation barriers, and (iv) integrate participatory research methods to support technical assessments with contextual knowledge of the studied low-income households and communities.Article Citation - WoS: 64Citation - Scopus: 70About Fractional Quantization and Fractional Variational Principles(Elsevier, 2009) Baleanu, Dumitru; 56389in this paper, a new method of finding the fractional Euler-Lagrange equations within Caputo derivative is proposed by making use of the fractional generalization of the classical Fad di Bruno formula.

An example is described to represent the hypothesis.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 2Abstract Random Differential Equations With State-Dependent Delay Using Measures of Noncompactness(Vilnius Univ, inst Mathematics & informatics, 2024) Heris, Amel; Bouteffal, Zohra; Salim, Abdelkrim; Benchohra, Mouffak; Karapinar, ErdalThis paper is devoted to the existence of random mild solutions for a general class of second-order abstract random differential equations with state-dependent delay. The technique used is a generalization of the classical Darbo fixed point theorem for Frechet spaces associated with the concept of measures of noncompactness. An application related to partial random differential equations with state-dependent delay is presented.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 17Abstraction-Based Verification of Codiagnosability for Discrete Event Systems(Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2010) Schmidt, K.In this paper, we investigate the verification of codiagnosability for discrete event systems (DES). That is, it is desired to ascertain if the occurrence of system faults can be detected based on the information of multiple local sites that partially observe the overall DES. As an improvement of existing codiagnosability tests that resort to the original DES with a potentially computationally infeasible state space, we propose a method that employs an abstracted system model on a smaller state space for the codiagnosability verification. Furthermore, we show that this abstraction can be computed without explicitly evaluating the state space of the original model in the practical case where the DES is composed of multiple subsystems.

In the presence of a bilinear form, novel periodic waves with different categories including periodic soliton, solitary and kinky solitary wave solutions are constructed. In the meantime, The diverse features and mechanical qualities of these acquired solutions are elucidated by 3D figures and some contour plots.Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 16An Accurate Approximate-Analytical Technique for Solving Time-Fractional Partial Differential Equations(Wiley-hindawi, 2017) Salahshour, S.; Ahmadian, A.; Ismail, F.; Baleanu, D.; Bishehniasar, M.; 56389The demand of many scientific areas for the usage of fractional partial differential equations (FPDEs) to explain their real-world systems has been broadly identified. The solutions may portray dynamical behaviors of various particles such as chemicals and cells. The desire of obtaining approximate solutions to treat these equations aims to overcome the mathematical complexity of modeling the relevant phenomena in nature. This research proposes a promising approximate-analytical scheme that is an accurate technique for solving a variety of noninteger partial differential equations (PDEs). The proposed strategy is based on approximating the derivative of fractional-order and reducing the problem to the corresponding partial differential equation (PDE). Afterwards, the approximating PDE is solved by using a separation-variables technique. The method can be simply applied to nonhomogeneous problems and is proficient to diminish the span of computational cost as well as achieving an approximate-analytical solution that is in excellent concurrence with the exact solution of the original problem. In addition and to demonstrate the efficiency of the method, it compares with two finite difference methods including a nonstandard finite difference (NSFD) method and standard finite difference (SFD) technique, which are popular in the literature for solving engineering problems.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 11An Accurate Predictor-Corrector Nonstandard Finite Difference Scheme for an Seir Epidemic Model(Hindawi Ltd, 2020) Ahmad, Riaz; Farooqi, Rashada; Alharbi, Sayer O.; Baleanu, Dumitru; Rafiq, Muhammad; Ahmad, M. O.; Farooqi, Asma; 56389The present work deals with the construction, development, and analysis of a viable normalized predictor-corrector-type nonstandard finite difference scheme for the SEIR model concerning the transmission dynamics of measles. The proposed numerical scheme double refines the solution and gives realistic results even for large step sizes, thus making it economical when integrating over long time periods. Moreover, it is dynamically consistent with a continuous system and unconditionally convergent and preserves the positive behavior of the state variables involved in the system. Simulations are performed to guarantee the results, and its effectiveness is compared with well-known numerical methods such as Runge-Kutta (RK) and Euler method of a predictor-corrector type.Article Citation - WoS: 17Citation - Scopus: 19Achieving More Precise Bounds Based on Double and Triple Integral as Proposed by Generalized Proportional Fractional Operators in the Hilfer Sense(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2021) Rashid, Saima; Karaca, Yeliz; Hammouch, Zakia; Baleanu, Dumitru; Chu, Yu-Ming; Al-Qurashi, Maysaa; 56389A user-friendly approach depending on nonlocal kernel has been constituted in this study to model nonlocal behaviors of fractional differential and difference equations, which is known as a generalized proportional fractional operator in the Hilfer sense. It is deemed, for differentiable functions, by a fractional integral operator applied to the derivative of a function having an exponential function in the kernel. This operator generalizes a novel version of Cebysev-type inequality in two and three variables sense and furthers the result of existing literature as a particular case of the Cebysev inequality is discussed. Some novel special cases are also apprehended and compared with existing results. The outcome obtained by this study is very broad in nature and fits in terms of yielding an enormous number of relating results simply by practicing the proportionality indices included therein. Furthermore, the outcome of our study demonstrates that the proposed plans are of significant importance and computationally appealing to deal with comparable sorts of differential equations. Taken together, the results can serve as efficient and robust means for the purpose of investigating specific classes of integrodifferential equations.Article Citation - WoS: 110Citation - Scopus: 112Active Laser Radar Systems With Stochastic Electromagnetic Beams in Turbulent Atmosphere(Optica Publishing Group, 2008) Cai, Yangjian; Korotkova, Olga; Eyyuboglu, Halil T.; Baykal, Yahya; 7688; 7812Propagation of stochastic electromagnetic beams through paraxial ABCD optical systems operating through turbulent atmosphere is investigated with the help of the ABCD matrices and the generalized Huygens-Fresnel integral. In particular, the analytic formula is derived for the cross-spectral density matrix of an electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model (EGSM) beam. We applied our analysis for the ABCD system with a single lens located on the propagation path, representing, in a particular case, the unfolded double-pass propagation scenario of active laser radar. Through a number of numerical examples we investigated the effect of local turbulence strength and lens' parameters on spectral, coherence and polarization properties of the EGSM beam.

UTAUT model which was enriched by introducing Trust of internet and Trust of government factors is used in the study. The model is evaluated through a survey conducted with Turkish citizens who are from different regions of the country. A total of 529 answers collected through purposive sampling and the responses were evaluated with the SEM (Structural Equation Modeling) technique. According to the results, Performance expectancy, Social influence, Facilitating conditions and Trust of Internet were found to have a positive effect on behavioral intention to use e-government services. Additionally, both Trust factors were found to have a positive influence on Performance expectancy of e-government services, a relation which, to our best knowledge, hasn't been tested before in e-government context. Effect of Effort expectancy and Trust of government were found insignificant on behavioral intention. We believe that the findings of this study will guide professionals and policy makers in improving and popularizing e-government services by revealing the citizen's priorities regarding e-government services in Turkey.

In this paper, we evaluated alterations of heart activity from the complexity point of view. We analyzed the variations of heart rate of patients with congestive heart failure that are categorized into four different age groups, namely 30-39, 50-59, 60-69, and 70-79 years old. For this purpose, we employed three complexity measures that include fractal dimension, sample entropy, and approximate entropy. The results showed that the trend of increment of subjects' age is reflected in the trend of increment of the complexity of heart rate variability (HRV) since the values of fractal dimension, approximate entropy, and sample entropy increase as subjects get older. The analysis of the complexity of other physiological signals can be further considered to investigate the variations of activity of other organs due to aging.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Agribusiness Resilience During the Covid-19 Pandemic: the Role of Credit Constraints(Czech Academy Agricultural Sciences, 2024) Ozsuca, Ekin ayseThis paper investigates the effect of pre-COVID credit constraints and the moderating role of government support on agribusiness resilience following the outbreak of COVID-19. Using a dataset covering 42 countries, we provide empirical evidence on how firm characteristics and credit constraints affect agribusinesses' likelihood of survival and performance during the pandemic. On the enterprise level, size, foreign ownership and gender of the manager are found to display a statistically significant relationship with closure and sales performance. The findings reveal that pre-existing credit constraints tended to magnify the negative impacts of the pandemic. Specifically, agribusinesses with better access to finance were less likely to experience a decline in sales and exit from the market and, hence, were in a better position to withstand pandemic-induced shock. The results further highlighted the positive role of government support on agribusiness resilience, whereas obtaining government aid was found to have no significant effect on moderating the link between financial conditions and resilience. Finally, the results showed that financially constrained agribusinesses are more likely to suffer from liquidity/cash flow problems and experience overdue financial obligations during the pandemic. In coping with their liquidity shortfalls, these agribusinesses were less likely to access formal credit and more likely to delay payments to suppliers/workers.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Airy-Type Relativistic Matter Wave(Elsevier Gmbh, 2021) Umul, Yusuf Ziya; 4269A new relativistic Airy-type matter wave is introduced as a solution of the kinetic energy based wave equation. The parametric solution of the related differential equation is obtained. The total energy and momentum of the relativistic particle are derived by using a Bohmian type of decomposition of the kinetic energy based equation. The acceleration of the particle is also evaluated. The behavior of the matter wave is investigated numerically.Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 14An Algorithm for Hopf Bifurcation Analysis of a Delayed Reaction-Diffusion Model(Springer, 2017) Kayan, S.; Merdan, H.; 49206We present an algorithm for determining the existence of a Hopf bifurcation of a system of delayed reaction-diffusion equations with the Neumann boundary conditions. The conditions on parameters of the system that a Hopf bifurcation occurs as the delay parameter passes through a critical value are determined. These conditions depend on the coefficients of the characteristic equation corresponding to linearization of the system. Furthermore, an algorithm to obtain the formulas for determining the direction of the Hopf bifurcation, the stability, and period of the periodic solution is given by using the Poincare normal form and the center manifold theorem. Finally, we give several examples and some numerical simulations to show the effectiveness of the algorithm proposed.Article Citation - WoS: 30Citation - Scopus: 32All Linear Fractional Derivatives With Power Functions' Convolution Kernel and Interpolation Properties(Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2023) Baleanu, Dumitru; Shiri, Babak; 56389Our attempt is an axiomatic approach to find all classes of possible definitions for fractional derivatives with three axioms. In this paper, we consider a special case of linear integro-differential operators with power functions' convolution kernel a(a)(t-s)b(a) of order a a (0,1). We determine analytic functions a(a) and b(a) such that when a-* 0+, the corresponding operator becomes identity operator, and when a-* 1- the corresponding operator becomes derivative operator. Then, a sequential operator is used to extend the fractional operator to a higher order. Some properties of the sequential operator in this regard also are studied. The singularity properties, Laplace transform and inverse of the new class of fractional derivatives are investigated. Several examples are provided to confirm theoretical achievements. Finally, the solution of the relaxation equation with diverse fractional derivatives is obtained and compared.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5Almost Autonomous Training of Mixtures of Principal Component Analyzers(Elsevier Science Bv, 2004) Musa, MEM; de Ridder, D; Duin, RPW; Atalay, VIn recent years, a number of mixtures of local PCA models have been proposed. Most of these models require the user to set the number of submodels (local models) in the mixture and the dimensionality of the submodels (i.e., number of PC's) as well. To make the model free of these parameters, we propose a greedy expectation-maximization algorithm to find a suboptimal number of submodels. For a given retained variance ratio, the proposed algorithm estimates for each submodel the dimensionality that retains this given variability ratio. We test the proposed method on two different classification problems: handwritten digit recognition and 2-class ionosphere data classification. The results show that the proposed method has a good performance. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
