Impact of neighbouring deep excavation on high-rise sun plaza building and its surrounding
(Elsevier, 2020-04)
A deep excavation was carried out at the border of 38-story Sun Plaza Tower in Istanbul with a shoring that made use of temporary anchorages. However, building construction license was cancelled due to later detected legal ...
Microchip ELISA coupled with cell phone to detect ovarian cancer HE4 biomarker in urine
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2014)
Ovarian cancer is a leading cause of death from gynecologic cancers in the USA, and early diagnosis can potentially increase 5-year survival rate. Detection of biomarkers derived from hyperplasia of epithelial tissue by ...
Impact spectrum of flood hazard on seismic vulnerability of bridges
(Techno-Press, 2018-05-25)
Multiple hazards (multihazard) conditions may cause significant risk to structures that are originally designed for individual hazard scenarios. Such a multihazard condition arises when an earthquake strikes to a bridge ...
Mixed method review for integrating building information modeling and life-cycle assessments
(Elsevier, 2020-04-15)
Previous studies have suggested that building information modeling (BIM) and life-cycle assessments (LCAs) could be integrated to quantify and alleviate the environmental effects of buildings while simplifying and optimizing ...
Crack remediation in mortar via biomineralization: effects of chemical admixtures on biogenic calcium carbonate
(Elsevier, 2018-11-30)
Limited research on biomineralization in cement-based systems suggested that self-healing of surface cracks could be obtained by triggering biogenic calcium carbonate (CaCO3) precipitation within the cracks. While this is ...
Perspectives on European earthquake engineering and seismology
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2014)
This book collects 5 keynote and 15 topic lectures presented at the 2nd European Conference on Earthquake Engineering and Seismology (2ECEES), held in Istanbul, Turkey, from August 24 to 29, 2014. The conference was organized ...
Nonlinear dynamic behavior of the basins with 2D bedrock
(Elsevier, 2018-04)
Resonance due to impedance contrast, focusing due to subsurface topography, conversion of the body waves to surface waves and subsurface topography are among the factors influencing the amplification specification of the ...
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 ...
Biomineralized cement-based materials: impact of inoculating vegetative bacterial cells on hydration and strength
(Elsevier, 2015-01)
Biomineralization in cement-based materials has become a point of interest in recent years due to the possibility that such an approach could be used to develop a self-healing cement-based system. The objective of this ...
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 ...
