CFD simulations of self-compacting concrete with discrete phase modeling
(Elsevier Sci LTD, 2018)Self-compacting concrete (SCC), is a special type of concrete with high compaction ability in the form-work with its own weight and compacted without any vibration. The main important advantage of SCC is the stability of ... -
Investigation of wind loads on the Osmangazi Bridge with numerical modeling
(Pamukkale University, 2018)Wind loads are crucial dynamic load for various structures. It is a unique engineering problem particularly because it requires the combined expertise of transportation, structure and fluid mechanics engineers. With the ... -
Instantaneous pressure measurements on a spherical grain under threshold flow conditions
(Cambridge University Press, 2014)The aim of this investigation was to experimentally examine the surface pressures and resulting forces on an individual sediment grain whose size is comparable to the scales of the turbulent channel flow in an effort to ... -
Reassessment of the flood damage at a river diversion hydropower plant site: lessons learned from a case study
(Springer, 2017)Despite the accumulated vast theoretical and practical knowledge on the flood-related topics, the lack of precautions taken against the natural disasters keeps causing fatality and property damage. In this study, a recent ... -
Examination of changes in the Turkish hydropower development, regulation, and planning
(SAGE Publications LTD, 2016)Hydropower has a critical role in supplying the energy demand and sustaining the economic and industrial growth in Turkey. Over the past decade, several policy changes have been made to improve the contribution of hydropower ... -
Change in maximum isolator displacements due to change in orientation of scaled near field ground motion records
(Gazi University, Fac Engineering Architecture, 2018)In this study, the change in maximum isolator displacements (MIDs) of a seismically isolated structure is studied as a function of ground motion orientation. The isolator units of the analyzed structure is composed of lead ... -
A study on assessing the domestic water resources, demands and its quality in holiday region of Bodrum Peninsula, Turkey
(Elsevier Sci LTD, 2017)The Bodrum peninsula is one of the more important tourist locations in Turkey. Due to an increasing population and tourism demand, water shortages have emerged as a significant problem during the summer months in recent ... -
Nonintrusive Method for Detecting Particle Movement Characteristics near Threshold Flow Conditions
(Asce-Amer Soc Civil Engineers, 2010)Bed-load measurements comprise an important component in the development of reliable formulas, in an effort to obtain the necessary constitutive relations between the amount of transported material and flow parameters. The ... -
An investigation of small scale hydropower plants using the geographic information system
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2017)The combining of evaluation instruments into Geographic Information System (GIS) environments has caused an advancement in solidifying the evaluation and analysis of the hydropower potential existing for the streams in the ... -
An investigation of heavy metal and migration through groundwater from the landfill area of Eskisehir in Turkey
(Springer, 2011)This paper was conducted in order to determine the groundwater and soil pollution within and around the landfill of Eskisehir, Turkey. In this paper, mud, leachate and groundwater samples were collected seasonally a year ... -
Identifying Bridge Rehabilitation Needs Using an Analytical Method Developed for Interpretation of Visual Inspection Data
(Asce-Amer Soc Civil Engineers, 2012)Bridge management systems generally rely on the accurate interpretation of findings determined from planned bridge inspections. Bridge inspections typically focus on the overall condition of the bridge and the condition ... -
Alternative electricity generation opportunities
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2008)In this article, comparing four renewable energy sources shows 70% of the electricity generated by the four to come from geothermal with only 42% of the total installed capacity. Wind energy contributes 27% of the electricity, ... -
Analytical Fragility Curves for Ordinary Highway Bridges in Turkey
(Earthquake Engineering Research Inst, 2011)This study focuses on the development of analytical fragility curves for the ordinary highway bridges constructed after the 1990s. Four major bridge classes were employed based on skew angle, number of columns per bent, ... -
Strengthening of substandard reinforced concrete beam-column joints by external post-tension rods
(Elsevier Sci LTD, 2016)The efficiency of the proposed strengthening method using externally applied post-tension rods in reinforced concrete external beam-column joints, which do not comply with any code requirements, is investigated. Five ... -
Structural repairing of damaged reinforced concrete beam-column assemblies with CFRPs
(Techno-Press, 2015)Depending on the damage type as well as the level of damage observed after the earthquake, certain measures should be taken for the damaged buildings. In this study, structural repairing of two different types of damaged ... -
Structural damages of the May 19, 2011, Kutahya-Simav earthquake in Turkey
(Springer, 2013)Reconnaissance observations are presented on the building damage caused by the May 19, 2011, Kutahya-Simav earthquake in Western Turkey as well as an overview of strong ground motion data recorded during the earthquake is ... -
Response of Seismic-Isolated Bridges in Relation to Intensity Measures of Ordinary and Pulselike Ground Motions
(Asce-Amer Soc Civil Engineers, 2013)This study concentrates on the efficiency of numerous ground motion intensity measures (IMs) to be used in estimating the response of seismic-isolated bridges (SIBs). Efficiency of commonly used IMs was investigated through ... -
Effects of Lead Core Heating on the Superstructure Response of Isolated Buildings
(Asce-Amer Soc Civil Engineers, 2017)Strength of lead rubber bearings (LRBs) deteriorates as a function of temperature rise in the lead core under cyclic motions. Accordingly, the isolator exhibits a gradual change in its hysteretic behavior that affects both ... -
In-Depth Investigation of Seismic Vulnerability of an Aging River Bridge Exposed to Scour
(Asce-Amer Soc Civil Engineers, 2017)The stability and structural performance of aged structures under extreme events are rarely investigated. The severe deterioration in current condition of aged bridges can trigger premature failures under regular floods ... -
Influence of Structural Walls on the Seismic Performance of RC Buildings during the May 19, 2011 Simav Earthquake in Turkey
(Asce-Amer Soc Civil Engineers, 2014)Reinforced concrete (RC) buildings having the adequate amount of structural wall area with a symmetrical arrangement have been proven to have a satisfactory seismic performance in past earthquakes. Properly constructed ...
