The planning, developing scenarios for the future and producing optimum operating plan of water resources is an important issue. It will be helpful that analyzing of different arranged time series, which have same statistical properties as observed time series and can be seen in the future, in the planning, designing. The Köprüçay River, in the [...]

The effects of steel fiber content, fiber aspect ratio and fine to coarse aggregate ratio on the rheological, mechanical and fracture properties of steel fiber reinforced self compacting concrete (SFRSCC) has been the topic of this experimental study. Also, optimization and performance based design of SFRSCC mixtures were investigated within the scope of this research.

Nanotechnology is the engineering of functional systems at the molecular scale. The main unifying theme is the control of matter on a scale between 1-100 nanometers.
An increasing interest in nanotechnology has caused to raise many questions. One of the most important questions is that whether the conventional theories developed in time are sufficient to analyze [...]

In recent years, port and harbour engineering has been developed and changed day by day. Hence; subjects that are assosicated with port and harbour planning and design come into prominence more and more. With this purpose, this prepared thesis deals with the relevant topics in the individual chapters
In the first chapter of studies; in case [...]

Geological and geotechnical features of Zeytinburnu District with 11.16 km2 residential area has been studied by Yildiz Technical University Deparment of Civil Engineering/Geotechnics Division (Ozaydın et al.,2004) during the seismic microzonation study, which was part of the “Istanbul Earthquake Master Plan, Zeytinburnu Pilot Project”. In this thesis, one and two dimensional dynamic behaviour analyses are [...]

Estimation of the failure probability for a system is generally difficult even if the potential failure modes are known or can be identified, because available analytical methods require determination of the sensitivity of performance functions, information on mutual correlations among potential failure modes, and determination of design points.

In this study, linear and non-linear vibrations of a simply-supported beam subjected to an eccentric compressive load and a moving harmonic load are investigated numerically in the framework of the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory (EBBT), Timoshenko beam theory (TBT) and Reddy-Bickford beam theory (RBBT). In the non-linear solution of the problem, only the geometrically non-linear effects [...]

This study purposed to investigate relation between, sediment amounts measured at specific station on Fırat River and results that obtained from the functions which used to calculate sediment amounts on river. For this purpose, daily total data for sediment amount of 5 observation stations (2102 Murat-River-Palu, 2115 Göksu River-Malpınar, 2119 Fırat River-Kemehboğazı, 2133 Munzur Water-Mlekbahçe, [...]

The August 17, 1999 Kocaeli Earthquake had a moment magnitude of Mw = 7.4 with a focal depth of 17 km. Several cases of liquefaction in silt and sand layers and bearing capacity loss in fine-grained soils have been observed in Adapazarı City that is located on alluvial soil deposits. Such phenomenon resulted in tilting [...]

In this study, the focus has been on determining the earthquake security of the buildings that are in danger of earthquake. With that purpose, Japanese Siesmic Index method, which is acceptable worldwide, has been considered. This method is a system of 3 research levels. In the first and second level, we consider horizontal carrier systems. [...]
