Uncertainty in risk of highway bridges assessed for integrated seismic and flood hazards
(Taylor and Francis, 2017-11-24)Probabilistic risk assessment for bridges under natural hazards is of great interest to engineers for the development of risk mitigation strategies and implementation plans. The present study evaluates risk of an existing ... -
Use of biomineralisation in developing smart concrete inspired by nature
(Inderscience, 2015)Recently, interest has focused on leveraging the biological functions of microorganisms to develop smart cement-based materials. This paper provides an overview of the calcium carbonate biomineralisation process in nature ... -
Use of corn-steep liquor as an alternative carbon source for biomineralization in cement-based materials and its impact on performance
(Elsevier, 2018-03-20)Early age microcracks are generally the primary cause for a decrease in service life of cement-based structures. Recent studies suggested that it might be possible to develop a smart cement-based material that could self-heal ... -
Use of natural minerals to immobilize bacterial cells for remediating cracks in cement-based materials
(ASCE, 2022-03-01)Cracks in cement-based materials are one of the main factors affecting the durability of structure. Recent research in the field of concrete materials showed that self-healing in cement-based systems can be achieved by ... -
Use of pre-wetted lightweight fine expanded shale aggregates as internal nutrient reservoirs for microorganisms in bio-mineralized mortar
(Elsevier, 2017-11)Interest in developing bio-based self-healing cement-based materials has gained broader attention in the concrete community. One of challenges in developing bio-based self-healing cement-based materials is that cell death ... -
Velocity pulse effects of near-fault earthquakes on a high-speed railway vehicle-ballastless track-benchmark bridge system
(Taylor & Francis, 2022-09-02)The near fault (NF) line waves send out signal envelopes that oscillate over lengthy periods of time with periodic impulses. Like train bridges, train tracks demonstrate comparable track-bridge (TB) motion dynamics. Using ... -
Yumuşak zeminler üzerinde dolgu inşasında temel zemini göçmesine dayalı tasarım yaklaşımı
(TMMOB İnşaat Mühendisleri Odası, 2019-09)In order to tackle the difficulties encountered in embankment design and construction, a new design method for embankments on soft clays is proposed in this paper. The method approaches to the problem with the philosophy ...
