As residents of many countries work from home, they have avoided public transport to minimize their exposure to the outbreak and have changed their way of traveling within their cities due to major changes in local public transport services. Istanbul is one of the cities most affected by the pandemic in terms of the daily number of passengers using public transportation. For the first time since the pandemic started in Istanbul, the use of urban public transportation has decreased by more than 90 percent. The aim of this study is to examine the measures taken in Istanbul public transport in order to prevent the spread of the coronavirus pandemic.

(Thesis Supervisor) Ayşe Parla................................................ Ayşen Candaş.......................................... Date of Approval: 06.08.2014 © Elif İrem Az 2014 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT MILITARY MASCULINITIES IN THE MAKING: PROFESSIONAL MILITARY EDUCATION IN CONTEMPORARY TURKEY Elif İrem Az Cultural Studies, MA Thesis, 2014 Supervisor: Ayşe Gül Altınay Keywords: military, education, masculinity, neoliberalism, Turkey. Military schools have historically been the black boxes of the Turkish Armed Forces. The subjects who make up the military and their education in military schools have largely remained outside of academic inquiry. Since the establishment of the Republic, the military has been consolidating its power over political processes, the legal system and everyday life through various coups and interventions. Yet, we witness a historical shift in political, social and cultural positionality of the military since the Ergenekon and Balyoz [Sledgehammer] trials, beginning in 2007 and 2010 respectively. Based upon participant observation, modest historical research, and in-depth interviews with former cadets of Turkish Naval High School and Turkish Naval Academy who were students between the years 2003 and 2013, this study aims to trace the links between my research participants’ narratives and the military’s falling from grace. This thesis argues that this shift ranges from internal restructuring of power in professional military education to changes in ideological, ethnic, and class composition of the military.

    II. Meşrutiyet Sonrası, Harp Akademisi Kurmay Eğitimine Ait Bir Ders Programı-1909 After II. Constitutional Monarchy, The War Academy Staff Training Course Program-1909 Abdullah Cüneyt Küsmez – Veli Fatih GÜVEN Öz Osmanlı Devleti, Ordusu ile Avrupa orduları arasında giderek açılan farkı kapatmak ve azalan muharebe etkinliğini artırmak için XVIII. Yüzyıl’dan itibaren yeni silah sistemlerinin imalat ve tedariki ile ordu teşkilat yapısında yapılan düzenlemelere öncelik vermiştir. Bununla birlikte askeri eğitimdeki yetersizliğinin de farkında olan Devlet, kıta eğitimi yanında etkin bir komuta yapısını teşkil edecek lider eğitimine verdiği önemi okullaşma ile göstermiştir. Bu eğitimin ilk aşaması Harp Okulu (Mekteb-i Harbiye) eğitimi ve sonrası onu tamamlayan Harp Akademisi (Mekteb-i Erkân-ı Harbiye) eğitimidir. Nitekim askeri okulların açılması ile komuta yapısını oluşturacak subayların yetişmesi sağlanmış ve bunların ordudaki uygun teşkillerde görevlendirmesi ile muharebe için çok önemli bir yer tutan doktriner esasların öğrenilmesi ve uygulanabilmesinin imkânı sağlanmıştır. Bu aynı zamanda çağdaşı ordulardaki harp uygulamalarının da takibini mümkün kılmıştır. Böylece Osmanlı Ordusu’nda, ileri harekât yönetimini sağlayabilen, müşterek ve birleşik harekât uygulamalarını gerçekleştirebilen, en az bir yabancı lisanı konuşabilen, zamanının gelişmiş harp doktrinlerini kavrayarak komuta ettiği birliğinde tatbik edebilen ve tüm bu harp uygulamalarını büyük birlikler harekâtında planlama ve icra düzeyinde ayrı ayrı veya aynı anda sevk ve idare edebilen subaylar yetiştirmek suretiyle sağlanması amaçlanmıştır. II. Meşrutiyet sonrası, bu yöndeki çalışmaların hızlandığı bir dönem, Harp Akademisi ise bu çalışmaların yoğunlukla görüldüğü bir okul olmuştur. Nitekim ileri komuta bilgi ve yeteneği kazandırılmasında subay öğrencilerin aldıkları dersler, okutulan derslerin niteliği ve süresi, ölçme ve değerlendirme sistemi ile Akademinin eğitim maksadı 1909 yılı itibari ile dikkat çekicidir.

They also require an excessive Jacobian matrix. The algorithm can handle networks with ar- number of neurons in order to follow the large number of fuzzy bitrarily connected neurons. The training speed is comparable with the Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm, which is currently rules required by FNNs. Other implemented approaches are considered by many as the fastest algorithm for neural network radial basis function (RBF) networks and principal component training. More importantly, it is shown that the computation analysis (PCA) [23]. of the Jacobian, which is required for second-order algorithms, PCA uses Hebbian neural networks which have comparably has a similar computation complexity as the computation of the simple architectures as ADALINE networks which naturally gradient for first-order learning methods.
