    Abstract: Aim: Although the RT-PCR test of pharyngeal swabs is the gold standard for diagnosing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID 19), radiological imaging techniques, particularly thoracic computerized tomography (CT) were also used frequently as needed during the pandemic. The aim of this study is to investigate thorax CT findings in patients with COVID-19 confirmed by RT-PCR and to evaluate its relationship with clinical features. Methods: This study included 311 consecutive patients who were hospitalized between April 1, 2020, and June 1, 2020, with COVID 19 diagnosis based on RT-PCR (+) results and underwent a thorax CT within 24-48 hours of admission. Symptoms, clinical status, co-morbidities of the patients were evaluated. Thorax CT findings were assessed by the Department of Radiology and the results were analyzed in relation to clinical status of the PCR (+) patients. Results: The study group consisted of 170 male (57.7%) and 141 female (42.3%) patients with mean age 46.7 ± 33.7 years. Among the COVID 19 cases, 51 (16.4%) were asymptomatic, clinical course was mild-moderate in 197 (63.3%) and severe in 63(20.3%). During follow-up 21 (6.8%) required intensive care and 10 (3.2%) died. The most common symptoms observed were cough (33.4%), weakness (30.2%) and fever (28%). The most commonly encountered co-morbidity in COVID-19 patients was hypertension (10.3%) followed by diabetes mellitus (7.7%), coronary artery disease (5.1%). Thorax CT findings were assessed as normal in 21.9% of the patients; viral pneumonia was detected in 20.9% and 27.7% were reported as compatible with COVID 19. Bilateral involvement was seen on CT scan in 49.2% of the patients. In regard to thorax CT imaging characteristics that suggest COVID 19 disease, the most common was ground-glass opacities observed in 181 (27.2%) and the least common was vascular enlargement in 4(0.6%) of the patients. Conclusion: COVID 19 is an air-borne disease that primarily affects the lungs. Thus, it is essential to define radiological lung involvement. The common CT findings of COVID 19 disease are similar to other viral pulmonary infections. The clinicians being familiar with common imaging features of COVID 19 would contribute to earlier detection and thus reduced mortality associated with the disease.

    Geopolicing Race, Gender, and Class: How the Police Immobilise Urban Allochthones

    Abstract: City landscapes are ever‐changing stages for the protagonists that pass through it. For police officers they serve as canvasses to positively and negatively code subjects. As such, geography matters to the body. Rather than taking geographic locations, crime statistics, predictive maps and human bodies as objective truths, I focus on the work of police officers, not in terms of an instrumental‐rational “meeting of policy targets” or attempts to reduce crime, but the work required to make raced, gendered and classed geographical differentiations. This process culminates in geopolicing: the spatial imaginations and practices of police officers as to who, what and where to police and, of course, why. Geopolicing includes the aesthetic re‐ordering and cleansing of urban “matter out of place”. Police officers perceive exclusionary territories in which landscapes racialised as white and identified as affluent are threatened by urban allochthones identified by class, race, gender, age and residential status. The findings are based on my ethnography among police officers in the city of Amsterdam, The Netherlands, between 2007 and 2011.

    Evaluation of supply chain risks by fuzzy DEMATEL method: a case study of iron and steel industry in Turkey
    Universitat Politecnica de Valencia ; 2022

    Abstract: Business practices to strengthen competitiveness increase the vulnerability of supply chains to risks. Risks that can adversely affect the effectiveness and efficiency of supply chain activities are events that disrupt the flow of information, materials, money, and products. Therefore, supply chain risk management is vital for companies. It is necessary to identify the risks that threaten the supply chain and prioritize them. In addition, examining the effects of risks on each other will determine the success of supply chain risk management. This study evaluates Turkey’s leading iron and steel company’s supply chain risk groups and sub-risks. The fuzzy DEMATEL method was used to determine the relative importance of the risks and the effects of the risks on each other. Results show that the most critical risk group is business risks. Business risk is followed by customer risks, supplier risks, transportation risks, environmental risks, and, finally, security risks. This study provides originality by evaluating the supply chain risks from a broader perspective.

    Abstract: The spectral analysis of strong earthquake ground motion needs detailed understanding of transfer function properties and source radiation along the wave propagation path. The main goal of this study is to evaluate the interaction of two semi-cylindrical canyons, which are subjected to the horizontally polarized shear-wave (SH-wave) and to find the transfer function properties of two canyons. In this study, the interaction of two semi-cylindrical canyons subjected to SH waves are considered and evaluated for a general angle of wave incidence. The method of Wave Function Expansion is derived, and the infinite series solution is obtained. Due to the complexity and convergence of infinite series including Bessel functions, the numerical results are limited. The convergence of the solution for the high frequencies requires the high order term. Moreover, the difficulties of this study come from convergence of the solution owing to interaction of two canyons having various dimensions and material properties. The closed-form solution of the problem shows that the surface topography can have prominent effects on incident waves when the wavelengths of incident motion are short compared to the radius of a canyon. The parameters, dimensions of the canyons, distance between two canyons, and the amplifications of the displacement amplitudes are obtained with respect to the incident angles of the waves and dimensionless frequency.
