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 ... -
Expeditious strip model for steel plate shear walls with beam-connected web plates
(Elsevier, 2021-09)Steel plate shear walls (SPSWs) are a robust lateral force-resisting system used in earthquake-prone regions due to their high lateral strength and stiffness as well as stable hysteretic characteristics. One of the ... -

Factors affecting site-specific response analysis
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)AbstractThe engineering purpose of a site-specific response analysis is to estimate the uniform hazard acceleration spectrum on the ground surface for a selected hazard level. One of the mandatory components for site ... -
Feature extraction for enhancing data-driven urban building energy models
(European Council on Computing in Construction (EC3), 2023)Building energy demand assessment plays a crucial role in designing energy-efficient building stocks. However, most studies adopting a data-driven approach feel the deficiency of datasets with building-specific information ... -
Field reconnaissance on seismic performance and functionality of Turkish industrial facilities affected by the 2023 Kahramanmaras earthquake sequence
(Springer, 2024-01)On February 6th, 2023, an earthquake sequence with moment magnitudes (Mw) of 7.8 and 7.5 rocked southern and eastern Turkiye, affecting 15 million-residents and a significant portion of Turkiye’s industrial community. In ... -
Flood performance and dislocation assessment for Lumberton homes after Hurricane Matthew
(Seoul National University, 2019-05-26)In order to better understand community resilience following a disaster, a multidisciplinary research team from the Center of Excellence (CoE) for Risk-Based Community Resilience Planning and the National Institute of ... -
Fly-ash evaluation as potential EOL material replacement of cement in pastes: Morpho-structural and physico-chemical properties assessment
(MDPI, 2022-04-24)The main objective of the study was to produce alternative binder materials, obtained with low cost, low energy consumption, and low CO2 production, by regenerating end-of-life (EOL) materials from mineral deposits, to ... -

Formalization of occupant feedback and integration with BIM in office buildings
(ASCE, 2021-01-01)Occupant feedback is not effectively used in the facility management (FM) phase for operations and maintenance activities as well as retrofit and refurbishment investment decisions. One of the reasons is related to incomplete ... -
Identification of common data environment functions during construction phase of BIM-based projects
(Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology, 2021-10)The utilization of building information modeling (BIM) has been rapidly increasing in the last decade as it stimulates project constructability, quality, efficiency, and success. A well-structured and organized information ... -
Immobilization of bacterial cells on natural minerals for self-healing cement-based materials
(Frontiers Media, 2021-04-13)Recent research in the field of concrete materials showed that it might be possible to develop a smart cement-based material that is capable of remediating cracks by Microbial-induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP). ... -
Impact of air entraining admixtures on biogenic calcium carbonate precipitation and bacterial viability
(Elsevier, 2017)The applications of self-healing in cement-based materials via biomineralization processes are developing quickly. The main challenge is to find a microorganism that can tolerate the restricted environment of cement paste ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Implementing artificial neural network-based gap acceptance models in the simulation model of a traffic circle in SUMO
(Sage, 2023-12)The impact of various operational and design alternatives at roundabouts and traffic circles can be evaluated using microscopic simulation tools. Most microscopic simulation software utilizes default underlying models for ... -
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 ... -
Increasing the stability of nanofluids with cavitating flows in micro orifices
(AIP, 2016)One of the most critical challenges for nanofluids in practical applications is related to their stability and reusability since a gradual agglomeration of nanoparticles in nanofluids occurs with time and is accelerated ...
