Prospects for cellulosic biofuel production in the Northeastern United States: A scenario analysis
(Blackwell Publishing, 2016-02)Secure access to energy and food are two of the challenges facing the Northeast region of the United States. Traditional biofuel feedstocks, such as corn and oil seed, are able to satisfy energy requirements. However, they ... -
Energetic and exergetic design evaluations of a building block based on a hybrid solar envelope method
(Springer, 2018)To achieve sustainable development, there needs to be a focus on decreasing use of non-renewable energy sources and greenhouse gas emissions. In this regard, many studies focus on the strong relationship between energy and ... -
Place management of a creative city: The case of Izmir
(Inderscience Enterprises, 2017)This study investigates how place management is used to render a creative city through the combination of soft factors as intangible characteristics and hard factors as tangible characteristics of the built environment. ... -
Exergy analysis of mass housing areas: Mavişehir I and II, Izmir
(Inderscience Enterprises, 2015)In this study, in terms of urban design, an exergy analysis of Mavişehir mass housing area in Izmir, Turkey is carried out based on spatial properties, shadow effects, wind effects and local climate to understand the ... -
An evaluation methodology for the tangible and intangible assets of city-regions: The 6K1C framework
(Inderscience Enterprises, 2010-10)Together with hard and soft networks, tangible and intangible regional assets play an important role in the knowledge-based development of competing city-regions. The aim of this paper, therefore, is to investigate the ... -
Making accident data compatible with ITS-based traffic management: Turkish case
(Intelligent Transport Systems, 2010)One of the most important reasons of the high rate of accidents would largely lend itself to ineffective data collection and evaluation process since the necessary information cannot be obtained effectively from the traffic ... -
A framework for integrating disadvantaged analysis into transportation planning models
(Gold Coast, 2006)The ability to access personal or public transportation is fundamental for people to connect with employment opportunities, health and medical services, educational services, and the community at large. However certain ... -
Urban crisis: ‘Limits to governance of alienation’
(SAGE Publications, 2017-07)This article aims to develop a comparative framework of analysis to study urban crises, arguing that there is a need to establish the analytical links between ‘everyday life and systemic trends and struggles’, and thus to ... -
An entropy-based analysis of lane changing behavior: An interactive approach
(Taylor & Francis, 2017-05)Objectives: As a novelty, this article proposes the nonadditive entropy framework for the description of driver behaviors during lane changing. The authors also state that this entropy framework governs the lane changing ... -
Determining the complexity of multi-component conformal systems: A platoon-based approach
(Elsevier, 2017-04)Many systems in nature and engineering are composed of subsystems. These subsystems may be formed in a linear, planar or spatial array. A typical example of these formations is a chain of vehicles known as platoon formation ... -
Determinants of co-movement and of lead and lag behavior of business cycles in the Eurozone
(Taylor & Francis, 2017-03)In this paper we study business cycle correlations in the Eurozone and its determinants. Additionally, we also analyze the determinants of the lead and lag behavior of business cycles in the Eurozone. We explore the ... -
Compositing climate change vulnerability of a Mediterranean region using spatiotemporally dynamic proxies for ecological and socioeconomic impacts and stabilities
(Springer, 2017-01)The study presents a new methodology to quantify spatiotemporal dynamics of climate change vulnerability at a regional scale adopting a new conceptual model of vulnerability as a function of climate change impacts, ecological ... -
Exchange rate movements and its local effects: Turkey case
(Econjournals, 2016)Aim of the current study is to investigate the impact of exchange rate movements on regional growth and inequalities across 26 NUTS-2 level regions in Turkey over a period 2004-2011. In terms of methodology, spatial-panel ... -
A superstatistical model of vehicular traffic flow
(Elsevier, 2016-02-15)In the analysis of vehicular traffic flow, a myriad of techniques have been implemented. In this study, superstatistics is used in modeling the traffic flow on a highway segment. Traffic variables such as vehicular speeds, ... -
In-between spaces and social interaction: a morphological analysis of Izmir using space syntax
(Springer, 2016-03-01)This research tackles the intermediate spaces between buildings and the street, by examining the definition and importance of spatial configuration in relation to urban morphology and social relations. It also analyses how ... -
Flood hazard vulnerability for settlements of Turkey’s province of Edirne, using ASTER DEM data and Landsat-7 ETM+ image data
(Springer, 2016-03-01)While Turkey’s province of Edirne represents one of the country’s most significant cultural heritage areas because it lies in the basins of the Meric and Ergene rivers, this very valuable region is highly susceptible to ... -
Inflation differentials across regions in Turkey
(De Gruyter, 2016-04-01)The aim of the present article is to analyze the convergence of regional inflation rates in Turkey from 2004 to 2015 by adopting sigma convergence and distribution dynamics approaches. The outcomes of our research can be ... -
Energy efficient building block design: An exergy perspective
(Elsevier, 2016-05-01)This study introduces the exergy analysis method into the field of urban planning, in order to find out the amount of energy that can be conserved in a building block when an energy efficient construction design is applied. ... -
Alienated and politicized? Young planners’ confrontation with entrepreneurial and authoritarian state intervention in urban development in Turkey
(Routledge, 2016-06-02)Planning in Turkey is dominated by powerful market interests and authoritarian state regulation, resulting in a conflictual socio-political environment. Caught in the crossfire between interventionist urban policies and a ...
