Observations from geotechnical arrays in Istanbul
(Springer, 2015-04-16)
Few small earthquakes with local magnitude slightly larger than ML = 4 were recorded by geotechnical downhole arrays that have been recently deployed in the west side of Istanbul. Same events were also recorded by Istanbul ...
Blind identification of site effects and bedrock motion from surface response signals
(Elsevier, 2018-04)
A method for blind identification of site effects from two nearby ground surface response signals is presented. The proposed approach makes use of ground surface accelerations from two nearby stations to back-calculate the ...
Site specific response analysis for performance based design earthquake characteristics
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2014-06)
During strong earthquakes, seismic waves travelling towards the ground surface alter the engineering characteristics of the soil layers and consequently the characteristics of travelling seismic waves also change with ...
Interaction of a pile with layered-soil under vertical excitations: field experiments versus numerical simulations
(Springer International Publishing, 2017-09)
Data recorded during a field test involving an instrumented drilled shaft under vertical excitations are examined in order to (1) extract the soil–pile system’s dynamic impedance, and (2) to evaluate the small-strain shear ...
A simplified approach for site-specific design spectrum
(Springer, 2018)
The design acceleration spectrum requires site investigations and site-response analyses in accordance with the local seismic hazard. The variability in earthquake source and path effects may be considered using a large ...
An investigation of the effects of surface topography on the seismic structural demands for a region of istanbul
(CRC Press, 2019)
In this study, we provide preliminary results from an ongoing study—funded by The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey, TUBITAK—investigating the effects of site-specific surface topography and soil ...
Microzonation with respect to ground shaking intensity
(CRC Press, 2019)
Seismic microzonation is conducted to assess the seismic hazard on the ground surface with respect to ground shaking intensity. A probabilistic seismic hazard study is conducted to define earthquake characteristics on the ...
Implications of site specific response analysis
(Springer, 2018)
Definition of design earthquake characteristics, more specifically uniform hazard acceleration response spectrum, on the ground surface is the primary component for performance based design of structures and assessment of ...
