As Artificial Intelligence (AI) becomes more developed and integrated into society, it will no longer consist of single isolated systems, but networks of AIs interacting with humans in socio-technical systems interwoven into the functioning of our society. When systems have many interacting components, they start to interact in unexpected ways and become hard to predict […]

The emergence and spread of antibiotic resistant bacteria is a major threat to our ability to treat bacterial infections. The beta-lactams, a group that includes the penicillins, are a widely used group of antibiotics. However, bacteria can become resistant to beta-lactams by producing beta-lactamases, enzymes that inactivate these antibiotics. There has been great success in […]

In an existing geothermal power plant found in Aydin, Turkey, three parabolic solar trough collectors have been installed to develop a hybrid solar-geothermal power plant. The main reason for such a hybridization is mainly to compensate the inefficiencies in the geothermal power plant due to changes in the ambient temperature. The parabolic solar trough collectors […]

This project focuses on the ways in which ancient thinkers conceptualized the notions of “body”, “soul” and their relationships, as well as the receptions these concepts had in classical, modern and contemporary posterity. This will allow studying the physical and mental dimension of the explanations produced by ancient thinkers for the phenomenon of life, mind, […]

This research will study an efficient method for extracting germanium from waste fiber optics cables. Germanium is widely used in optical fibers, infrared optics, and solar energy industry. Optical fiber is the major application of germanium. Germanium possesses various properties that can make positive impact on these fields. The demand for germanium will increase with […]

Web page classification is the process of assigning a web page to one or more predefined categories and it is one of the essential techniques of web mining. Web page classification identifies what type of web page we are extracting data from and can help search engines to effectively deal with and rank web pages […]
