Öğe Türü: Öğe , A Design of Relief Logistics System by Axioms(İstanbul Gelişim Üniversitesi Yayınları / Istanbul Gelisim University Press, 2026) Ateş, OzanAim: This study scientifically addresses aid logistics operations, a subfield related to disaster management. It aims to conduct a design study that will guide those in authority. The study is in line with the classical logistics flow, with a value-oriented lean perspective, and eliminates processes that are not beneficial to disaster victims and include waste. The application of the axiomatic design approach in logistics, particularly in relief logistics, is relatively new and is expected to contribute to the existing literature gap in this area. Method: This study presented a complete, separate, waste-free design structure for aid logistics activities using the Independence Axiom from the Axiomatic Design (AD) principles as a method. Independence action is a scientific methodology based on the design of design steps as separate as possible from each other. While creating the design structure in question, the dimensions of classical logistics were taken into consideration and the lean logistics perspective was utilized. In addition, current literature was effectively utilized in defining aid logistics design steps. Results: The issues experienced after the earthquakes that occurred on February 6, 2023 and affected Turkey and Syria showed that there was no organizational awareness regarding aid logistics. When the collection and dispatch of aid materials after the earthquake was observed, it was seen that this operation was not carried out correctly and the necessity of such a study was realized. Conclusion: The design presented has been presented as a horizontal hierarchy, simple, suitable for logistic flow, easy to understand and implement design study. Research on current literature has been guiding on what the design steps should be. For future studies, it is recommended that AT approaches be applied in other areas of disaster logistics. Correct prioritization of rescue activities, correct transfer of disaster victims to shelter areas, and management of wastes resulting from disasters are areas that can be improved with AT approaches.Öğe Türü: Öğe , [SDG 5]: İstanbul Gelişim University Gender Equality Report : 2025(İstanbul Gelişim Üniversitesi / Istanbul Gelisim University, 2026) İstanbul Gelişim Üniversitesi RektörlüğüGENDER EQUALITY Sustainable Development Goal 5 aims to achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls.

C. Decker, 2026) Çuğlan, Songül; Gaş, Selin; Bayramova, Nuran; Çolakoğlu, Gizem; Özlü Uçan, GülfemObjective: Anatomic safety and aesthetic harmony are of critical importance in facial aesthetics and surgical procedures. This study aims to evaluate whether the distance ratios among the supraorbital, infraorbital, and mental foramina conform to the golden ratio (φ = 1.618). Methods: In this retrospective study, cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans of 88 patients aged 18 to 33 years (42 males and 46 females) were analyzed. The distances between the supraorbital foramen/notch (SOF), infraorbital foramen (IOF), and mental foramen (MF) (SOF-IOF, IOFMF, and SOF-MF) were measured bilaterally. The conformity of the SOF-MF/SOF-IOF ratio to the golden ratio (1.618) was statistically assessed using (SPSS version 26.0; IBM Corp., Armonk, NY). Results: In our study, the distance between SOF and IOF was 45.40 ± 2.81 mm on the right side and 45.47 ± 3.11 mm on the left side. In addition, the distance between IOF and MF was 66.01 ± 5.01 mm on the right side and 65.21 ± 5.14 mm on the left side. The SOF-MF/SOF-IOF ratio was 1.522 on the right side and 1.418 on the left side in men; in women, it was 1.400 on the right side and 1.402 on the left side. In addition, the overall average was 1.459 on the right side and 1.440 on the left side. All measurements showed a significant difference compared with the golden ratio (1.618) (P < 0.05). Conclusion: This study provides morphometric data on distance ratios between the supraorbital, infraorbital, and mental foramina, which may serve as a reference for anatomic planning and localization of neurovascular structures in aesthetic and surgical procedures. The findings suggest that these proportional relationships could contribute to safer, more predictable facial interventions; however, larger-scale studies are required to validate these ratios across diverse ethnic groups and populations.Öğe Türü: Öğe , A Comparison of the Mechanical Properties of the Deltoid and Trapezius Muscles and Shoulder Range of Motion in Competitive Young Swimmers Across Different Swimming Strokes(BioMed Central Ltd, 2026) Ertürk, Çağıl; Çimen, Kubilay; Mutuş, Rıfat; Demirci, Sinan; Açar, Görkem; Kalpak, Ender; Tangil, Kübra BegümBackground Competitive swimming is a sport that places a high level of repetitive load on the shoulder complex and requires intensive use of upper extremity movements. Different swimming strokes may demonstrate distinct differences in shoulder joint biomechanics and muscle activation patterns, which may lead to stroke-specific adaptations in shoulder joint range of motion and the neuromechanical properties of muscles. However, studies examining shoulder joint range of motion together with the biomechanical properties of shoulder girdle muscles assessed by myotonometry according to swimming strokes in young swimmers are limited. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the biomechanical properties of shoulder girdle muscles and shoulder joint range of motion differ according to swimming stroke in competitive youth swimmers. Methods A total of 32 competitive swimmers (14 females, 18 males) were included in this cross-sectional and comparative study. Participants were divided into four groups according to their dominant swimming stroke: freestyle (n=8), breaststroke (n=9), backstroke (n=8), and butterfly (n=7). Shoulder joint range of motion (flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, internal rotation, and external rotation) was assessed bilaterally using a standard goniometric method. The biomechanical properties of shoulder girdle muscles were measured using the MyotonPRO device, and oscillation frequency (muscle tone), dynamic stiffness, logarithmic decrement, relaxation time, and creep parameters were recorded. Differences in shoulder joint range of motion were analyzed using the Kruskal–Wallis test. In the evaluation of muscle biomechanical properties, analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was applied while controlling for age, height, body mass, and training experience as covariates. Results No differences were found among swimming strokes in shoulder flexion, extension, abduction, internal rotation, and external rotation range of motion (p>0.05). In contrast, shoulder adduction range of motion differed significantly according to swimming stroke on both sides (right p=0.003; left p=0.008). Freestyle swimmers demonstrated lower adduction angles, whereas butterfly and backstroke swimmers exhibited higher values. Myotonometric assessment showed no stroke-related differences in oscillation frequency, muscle stiffness, relaxation time, or creep parameters (p>0.05). However, a stroke-related difference was observed in the decrement value of the anterior deltoid muscle (p=0.002), with freestyle swimmers demonstrating lower decrement values compared with some other stroke groups. Conclusions The findings of this study indicate that shoulder joint range of motion in competitive youth swimmers is largely independent of swimming stroke, although shoulder adduction range of motion may exhibit stroke-specific differences. In addition, while most neuromechanical properties of shoulder girdle muscles appear to be independent of swimming stroke, the elastic properties of the anterior deltoid muscle may be related to stroke mechanics. These findings provide important information for the evaluation of stroke-specific biomechanical adaptations in swimmers, performance analysis, and the planning of training programs aimed at preventing shoulder injuries.
