Harvesting offshore wind energy has been a primary stimulus for research recently as more shreds of evidence show the highly unexploited potential it carries. As water depth increases, fixed-bottom foundations become impractical and floating solutions must be adopted for offshor…
Stokastik engellerin olduğu yol planlaması, çok populer bir araştırma alanı olarak bilinir. Zorlayıcı bir stokastik optimizasyon problemi olan Kanadalı Gezgin Probleminde (CTP), bloke edilmiş yollar içeren bir haritada engele bitişik bir köşeye ulaşıldığında önceden tanımlanmış …
This study investigates the structural properties of language in acquired agrammatic aphasia, and the processing deficits in this syndrome. This is carried out by using formal theories of syntax to account for language performance in agrammatism. First, several methodological po…
The role of sound symbolism in phonesthesia in English and in ideophony in Yoruba and Korean is the main focus of the research and experiments. The first chapter presents a typology of iconicity in phonosemantics based upon observations made by Bellugi and Klima (1978) on iconic…
Following the methods of Gardner and Gardner 1969 and Fouts 1973 , ten signs (American Sign Language) were trained to four juvenile orangutans. None of the subjects acquired all of the signs even after 2400 trials distributed over 15 months. However, all of the subjects acquired…
The first series of experiments examined whether putative satiety hormones reduce feeding in Syrian hamsters. Feeding in fasted hamsters was measured after peripheral injections of cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-8), bombesin (BBS), thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH), and calc…
Two experiments involving familiarity effects in visual comparison tasks were carried out to determine whether contextual variables can affect cognitive processes that are related to human intelligence. In each experiment, a classification task was structured in a way that was i…
Natural disasters are occurring increasingly around the world, causing significant economic losses. To alleviate their adverse effect, it is crucial to plan what should be done in response to them in a proactive manner. This research aims at developing proactive and real-time re…
The South American Monsoon System (SAMS) is characterized by a well-defined wet and dry season, which is connected to the reversal of anomalous low-level winds east of the Andes. Driven by local and remote processes, the intensity and duration of the SAMS can vary considerably f…
The destructive potential of wildfires has been exacerbated by climate change, causing their frequencies and intensities to continuously increase globally. In this context, increasing wildfire activity across the globe has become an urgent issue with enormous ecological and soci…
In-situ foaming the injection gas for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) can improve the volumetric sweep efficiency of the gas phase and reduce gas channeling and viscous fingering in the oil reservoirs with permeability contrast. However, the success of foam displacement in porous me…
Circadian rhythms in rodents can be phase shifted by activity bouts or light pulses. Syrian hamsters were entrained to a 14:10 full photoperiod (FPP) and were induced to run in the middle of their subjective day. Four of 11 hamsters showed high levels of induced wheel running an…
This research explored the cognitive processes underlying the Response Amplification Effect (RAE), which is ambivalent people's tendency to judge the object of their ambivalence (typically, a stigmatized other) more extremely than a comparable control target. Being in a state of…
Esta tesis es una propuesta para usar los memes como fuentes históricas para entender los imaginarios de guerra y paz en el plebiscito de Colombia en el 2016. Desde una perspectiva histórica esta investigación entiende la internet como un archivo, un lugar donde algunos objetos …
