A case study for probabilistic seismic risk assessment of earthquake-prone old urban centers
Altindal, Abdullah; Karim Zadeh Naghshineh, Shaghayegh; Erberik, Murat Altuğ; Askan Gündoğan, Ayşegül; ANIL, ÖZGÜR; KOÇKAR, MUSTAFA KEREM; ŞAHMARAN, MUSTAFA (2021-01-01)
The study focuses on the probabilistic seismic risk assessment of earthquake prone old urban centers. This issue becomes even more complex if the considered area is a highly populated, cultural or commercial center. Hence it is an important task to estimate regional earthquake losses and to develop strategies for earthquake mitigation through seismic risk prioritization among such vulnerable populated old urban areas. For this purpose, a sub-district with six neighborhoods in Beyoglu, Istanbul has been sele...
A case study on the stability of berm type coastal defense structures
Fışkın, Gökçe; Ergin, Ayşen; Department of Civil Engineering (2004)
Coastal defense structures have primary importance from obtainabilty of resources and benefits served by the coastal regions point of view. However, the construction of coastal defense structures demand a high amount of investment. Therefore, in order to reduce the risk of collapse of these structures, model studies should be carried during the design process. In this study, model investigations were carried out on Eastern Black Sea Highway Project regarding the serviceability and damage thus stability para...
A STUDY ON PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF RELIEF WELLS DOWNSTREAM OF EMBANKMENT DAMS
Göğüş, Doruk; Yanmaz, Ali Melih; Çalamak, Melih; Department of Civil Engineering (2021-6-30)
This study investigates the performances of reduction methods of the seepage problem at the foundation of a real embankment dam, Oğulcuk Dam located in Yozgat, Turkey. The steady-state seepage modeling is used in the analysis. The variation of relief wells inner diameter, location and spacing parameters are compared with each other and are also compared with different alternatives, such as cutoff walls, core trenches, and cutoff walls with blankets. Different variations of those methods i.e. locations and d...
A model study on the seismic behavior of laterally braced sheet pile walls
Yunatcı, Ali Anıl; Özkan, Yener; Department of Civil Engineering (2003)
1 -g shaking table tests were performed in order to study the seismic behavior of laterally braced sheet pile walls retaining cohesionless soil. The dynamic pressures, backfill accelerations and wall displacements were measured on a 65 cm high model wall under input accelerations ranging between 0.06g and 0.3 8g. The 3 mm thick wall was fixed at three levels. Data acquisiton components consisting of dynamic pressure transducers, accelerometers, displacement transducers, signal conditioning board and a data ...
A comparative study on structural design alternatives for twisted tall buildings with outriggers
Demirel, G. N.; Ay, Bekir Özer (2022-08-01)
Tall buildings are seen as iconic landmarks because of their bold effect on the city silhouette. To control this bold effect in an aesthetically desired manner, designers search for intriguing forms such as twisted buildings. There are two main approaches for designing the structural system of a twisted tall building. In the first approach, the twisted form of the building is obtained only by the rotation of the floors, and the structural system is maintained in a conventional, perpendicular way. Alternativ...
