Mechanical Responses of Recycled Core Sandwich Structures With Hybrid Composite Facings: A Study of Quasi-Static and Dynamic Behavior
(Wiley, 2025-12) Ceylan, Büşra Tansu; Türkoğlu, Kürşad; Yazıcı, Murat; Ertan, Rukiye; 426716
In this study, a sandwich composite structure was developed by combining a recycled, self-skinned corrugated polypropylene (PP) core with face sheets made from woven hybrid composites of glass, carbon, and aramid fibers. The face sheets were fabricated using the Vacuum-Assisted Resin Transfer Molding (VARTM) process following an optimized stacking sequence, and subsequently integrated with the core using an EVA-based thermoplastic adhesive. The performance of the produced structures was evaluated through quasi-static and dynamic three-point bending tests, as well as edge compression tests. The findings indicate that the interaction among the different fiber layers enhances interfacial integrity and improves structural stability. The obtained results reveal that integrating the hybrid face sheets with the core enhances the structural durability and positively influences the energy absorption and deformation behavior of the material. The structure developed in this context aims to be evaluated as a potential alternative for producing recyclable, environmentally sustainable, and functional components in the automotive industry, particularly in structures such as electric vehicle battery boxes. Additionally, the study presents a novel approach to the reuse of recycled thermoplastic cores in advanced engineering applications.

Serigrafi, Tasarım ve Biriciklik İlişkisi: Big Baboli Print House Örneği
(Marmara Üniversitesi, 2025-06) Güler, Gizem; 350727
Bu çalışma, serigrafi baskı tekniğinin günümüzde özgün ve biricik sanat eserleri üretiminde nasıl bir rol üstlendiğini incelemektedir. Türkiye’de faaliyet gösteren Big Baboli Print House’un 2021 ile 2025 yılları arasında ürettiği eserlerle sınırlandırılan çalışmada, niteliksel bir perspektif benimsenmiş; doküman analizi yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Bir sanat eserinin, üretim teknikleri dikkate alınarak ve bağlamına sadık kalınarak inşa edilmesi, özgünlük algısının temelini oluşturan unsurlar arasında yer almaktadır. Çalışmanın bulguları, serigrafinin salt bir çoğaltma yöntemi olmanın ötesine geçerek, sanatçılar için özgünlüğü teşvik eden yaratıcı bir üretim alanına dönüştüğünü ortaya koymaktadır.

The Relationship Between Algophobia and Hedonism: Semiotic Analysis of the Effect of Happy Slogan on Consumption
(IGI Global, 2025-12) Güler, Gizem; 350727; Dölkeleş, Gülce
By portraying pain as weakness and marketing permanent well- being, it is seen that society's pain tolerance decreases. In addition, with the normalization of permanent well- being, a pleasure- oriented society of positivity is tried to be built. The negative emotions of the society created are suppressed in various ways. Consumption is at the forefront of these. Consumption is a tool used by modern society to escape from pain and access pleasure. Over time, it has been observed that the lack of pleasure has been tried to mean the existence of pain. The happy slogan used in the commercials emphasizes that the mass will achieve pleasure during consumption and the society associates consumption with happiness. The audience, who buys in order to reach pleasure, fails to achieve the happiness they expect at the moment of purchase and starts to plan their next purchase behavior. This situation was analyzed with semiotic analysis through the slogans used in Turkish brands Ülker and Eti.

Visual Communication in Business and Consumer Culture
(IGI Global, 2025-12) 36080; Dölkeleş, Gülce
The increasing centrality of visual communication in contemporary business and consumer culture reflects its dual role as both a strategic instrument and a cultural mediator. In an era characterized by digital saturation, rapid technological advancements, and evolving consumer expectations, visual communication transcends mere illustrative function to become a critical medium through which meaning is constructed, disseminated, and interpreted. Visual Communication in Business and Consumer Culture seeks to provide a comprehensive and interdisciplinary examination of these phenomena. Spanning fourteen chapters, the volume addresses a wide spectrum of topics, including the semiotic mechanisms underlying consumer engagement, the psychological dynamics of pleasure and avoidance in marketing, the integration of augmented reality and digital try- on technologies in retail spaces, and the strategic application of data visualization in brand management. Further chapters explore the role of visual narratives in sustainability initiatives, social marketing, fashion communication, ESG reporting, and the convergence of art and technology in fostering innovation and creativity.

Principles of environmentally sustainable agriculture for building resilient and resource-efficient food systems
(Tübitak, 2025-10) Çakmakçı, Ramazan; Çakmakçı, Songül; Çakmakçı, Muhammet Fatih; 410449
As the demand for greater quantities of higher-quality food grows with population expansion, climate change, urbanization, and unsustainable agricultural practices accelerate the loss of arable land, ultimately threatening agricultural sustainability. Population growth necessitates a transition to nutritious, safe, and healthy food production systems that ensure higher yields, less reduced waste, improved social outcomes, and the integration of economic, social, and environmental sustainability principles. Urgent global challenges such as resource depletion, biodiversity loss, and climate change necessitate the protection of ecosystems and the sustainable use of natural resources. Agricultural systems must enhance food production and supply productivity, strengthen system resilience, and improve resource efficiency and sustainability. The sustainable development of agricultural systems based on resilience and productivity is important to ensure food security. The aim of this review is to compile, describe, and propose future strategies for promising food systems—including transformative innovations and alternative farming techniques—to facilitate the transition toward resilient, resource-efficient, and sustainable agriculture, and to mitigate long-term challenges. It also provides recommendations for future research, sustainability, resilience, and emerging food trends aimed at promoting sustainable food systems and green technologies, protecting ecosystems, resources, and biodiversity, and optimizing waste management and natural resource use. This article focuses on future sustainable food production and security, environmental protection, alternative protein sources, and innovative agricultural techniques; it highlights scientific and technological advancements, emerging research directions, and offers a comprehensive perspective on resilient, resource-efficient, and sustainable food production systems.
