Design method for quantifying embankment safety against lateral spreading and determining contribution of basal reinforcements
(Elsevier, 2020-06)This study proposes an analytical method for the calculation of the safety factor against lateral spreading in embankments, both for cases with and without basal reinforcement. Hence, a new limit equilibrium approach is ... -
Design of energy-efficient white portland cement mortars for digital fabrication
(Springer, 2020)Additive manufacturing, i.e. three-dimensional (3D) printing technology has many advantages over traditional processes and the related technology is continuously improving. This study aims to develop an energy- efficient ... -
Designing façade and envelope for a high-rise residential building using energy-efficient materials: A case in Istanbul, Turkey
(IOP Publishing, 2022)The construction industry is responsible for 40% of global energy demand as buildings increase heating, cooling, and lighting demand. Therefore, building energy performance has become one of the most significant subjects ... -
Designing redundant cable-driven parallel robots for additive manufacturing using end-effector compliance index
(IEEE, 2023)This paper presents a methodology for optimizing cable anchor points for cable-driven parallel robots (CDPRs) for specific additive manufacturing tasks. Much of a CDPR's workspace is generally not used for printing tasks. ... -
Development of composite cold-formed steel-rubberised concrete semi-rigid moment-resisting connections
(Elsevier, 2022-06)This paper presents the development of a composite cold-formed steel (CFS)-rubberised concrete (RuC) semi-rigid moment-resisting connection suitable for framed building structures. The connection comprises built-up tubular ... -
Editorial and welcome to a new ERA
(Springer International Publishing, 2015-01)With this first issue of Volume 13 (2015), while we are celebrating our 12th anniversary, we will be implementing some major changes for BEE. We are going to start publishing on a monthly basis with 12 issues per year and ... -
Effect of flexural demands in the leaner columns on the column buckling strength
(Earthquake Engineering Research Institute, 2018)Leaner columns of steel frames are typically designed for axial load only and they are assumed not to contribute to the lateral stiffness of the system; however, a recent study revealed that under seismic loading leaner ... -
The effect of triaxiality on finite element deletion strategies for simulating collapse of full-scale steel structures
(Elsevier, 2020-05-01)Collapse prediction of steel structures should incorporate a finite element model that accounts for ductile fracture through material separation in critical structural members. Finite element deletion approaches have been ... -
Effects of oil contamination and bioremediation on geotechnical properties of highly plastic clayey soil
(Elsevier, 2021-06)Leakage of oil and its derivatives into the soil can change the engineering behavior of soil as well as cause environmental disasters. Also, recovering the contaminated sites into their natural condition and making ... -
Effects of unbonded steel layout on seismic behavior of post-tensioned precast concrete shear walls
(Springer Nature, 2020-10)Unbonded post-tensioned precast connections have been studied widely in various applications and shown to be promising seismic resisting systems with superior seismic performance including exceptional self-centering ... -
End-of-life materials used as supplementary cementitious materials in the concrete industry
(MDPI, 2020-04)A sustainable solution for the global construction industry can be partial substitution of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) by use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) sourced from industrial end-of-life (EOL) ... -
Energy-based sidesway collapse fragilities for ductile structural frames under earthquake loadings
(Elsevier, 2018-11)In assessing the likelihood of structural collapse under strong earthquake motions, uncertainties in structural properties and ground motions can be incorporated by use of a probabilistic analysis framework in conjunction ... -
Estimating roadway horizontal alignment from geographic information systems data: An artificial neural network–based approach
(ASCE, 2023-11-01)Estimating horizontal alignment using discretized roadway data points, such as GIS maps, is complicated because the number of curved and tangent segments and their start and end points are not known a priori. This study ... -
Estimating roadway horizontal alignment using artificial neural network
(IEEE, 2021)This paper presents a novel approach for extracting horizontal alignment data from Geographic Information Systems (GIS) centerline shapefiles. Estimating the road horizontal alignment is formulated as a minimization problem, ... -

Eulogy to Professor Nicholas N. Ambraseys
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2013-02)Sadly, at the final phase of all these preparations for Vol.11 N.1, our very dear and very distinguished Editorial Board Member Prof. Nicholas Ambraseys passed away on December 28, 2012 at the age of 83. Prof. Ambraseys ... -
Evaluating the impact of building envelope on energy performance: Cooling analyses
(Golden Light Publishing, 2022-03-31)Buildings require a significant amount of energy for heating, cooling, and lighting. Hence, building energy performance has become one of the most important topics in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) ... -
Evaluation of code provisions for seismic performance of unachored liquid storage tanks
(National Technical University of Athens, 2017)Seismic performance of two unanchored liquid-storage tanks with tank diameter of 24.5 m and 36 m and operating liquid height of 12.2 m and 20.0 m, respectively were investigated using Coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian (CEL) and ... -
Evaluation of self-healing of internal cracks in biomimetic mortar using coda wave interferometry
(Elsevier, 2016-05)Calcium carbonate biomineralization is a bio-chemical process in which calcium carbonate precipitation is obtained by leveraging the metabolic activity of microorganisms. Studies have shown that biomineralization can be ... -
Evolution of seismic hazard maps in Turkey
(Springer International Publishing, 2018-08)A review on the historical evolution of seismic hazard maps in Turkey is followed by summarizing the important aspects of the updated national probabilistic seismic hazard maps. Comparisons with the predecessor probabilistic ...
