Factors that determine the capital structure: An empirical study on low-cost airlines
(De Gruyter Poland Sp Zoo, 2018)
The purpose of this study is to identify the factors that determine the capital structure of low-cost airlines. Accordingly, it is aimed to test the factors that determine the capital structure in low-cost airlines in the ...
Catalytic cracking of pyrolytic oil by using bentonite clay for green liquid hydrocarbon fuels production
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2018)
The pyrolysis of almond shell as a biomass feedstock was performed in order to obtain a bio-based feedstock for bio-refineries in a fixed-bed reactor under inert atmosphere (occurred by N-2 gas) at certain experimental ...
Metamaterial-based fluid sensor for identifying different types of fuel oil samples
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2018)
In this paper, we present, design and analyze a metamaterial (MTM) based sensor to distinguish different types of gasoline and diesel samples. Electromagnetic characterization of the samples is completed experimentally and ...
Wave propagations in metamaterial based 2D phononic crystal: Finite element analysis
(Institute of Physics Publishing, 2018)
In the present work, the acoustic band structure of a two-dimensional (2D) phononic crystal (PnC) containing composite material were investigated by the finite element method. Two-dimensional PC with triangular and honeycomb ...
Testicular germ line cell identification, isolation, and transplantation in two North American catfish species
(SPRINGER, 2018)
Our aim was to transplant blue catfish germ line stem cells into blastulae of triploid channel catfish embryos to produce interspecific xenogenic catfish. The morphological structure of the gonads of blue catfish (Ictalurus ...
The revenant: rediscovery of Margaritifera homsensis from Orontes drainage with remarks on its taxonomic status and conservation (Bivalvia: Margaritiferidae)
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2018)
Since Margaritifera marocana (Pallary, 1918) and M. laosensis (Lea, 1863) were rediscovered, M. homsensis (Lea, 1865) remains the only pearl mussel species known solely based on old shell samples from natural history ...
The effects of seasonal, sex and size on the digestive enzyme activities in freshwater crayfish (Astacus leptodactylus Eschscholtz, 1823)
(WILEY, 2018)
The effects of seasonal, sex and size on digestive enzyme activities of Astacus leptodactylus in natural habitat were investigated in the present study. The freshwater crayfish were sampled 584 individual as seasonally ...
Microstructural and mechanical properties of friction stir welded pure lead
(National Institute of Science Communication and Information Resources (NISCAIR), 2018)
The present study focuses on the applicability of friction stir welding to pure Pb plates. The joint performances are evaluated by optical microscopy, microhardness measurements, notch impact tests and three point bending ...
Amino acid and fatty acid composition of freshwater mussels, anodonta pseudodopsis and unio tigridis
(University of Punjab (new Campus), 2018)
Proximate composition, fatty acid and amino acid levels were measured in A. pseudodopsis and U. tigridis from the Lake Golbasi. Crude protein and lipid contents were higher in U. tigridis (10.75%, 0.96%) than in A. ...
Biogenic (beta-fabric) features in the hard laminated crusts of the Mersin and Adana regions, southern Turkey and the role of soil organisms in the formation of the calcrete profiles
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2018)
This paper describes beta-fabric features and their distribution in the calcretes, and emphasizes the role of soil organisms in the formation of the calcrete profiles. Quaternary calcretes are common in the Mersin and Adana ...
