In this thesis, the behavior of secondary compression of a selected clay soil from Famagusta is assessed by conducting series of one-dimensional consolidation tests on samples prepared with various initial void ratios and ...

Antakya city is in danger as a result of solid seismic actions happening in the territory, and diverse soil conditions that can create a variety of the ground motion amplification. In recent years, scientists and engineers ...

The objective of this numerical study was the investigation of the seismic behavior of steel framed structures with infill walls. The equivalent diagonal struts and shear spring model based finite element software SeismoStruct ...

ABSTRACT: In recent years great developments have been made in the assessment of existing buildings and their performance in resistance to earthquake loading, potential seismic risk, vulnerability and lateral loads. Existing ...

ABSTRACT: Early reinforced concrete structures present undetermined resistance to earthquakes. This situation is particularly unacceptable in the case of essential facilities such as school structures. For those countries ...

As Seismic isolation is one of the remedies for providing earthquake-resistant features for structural components, non-structural components, and contents of the building systems, its performance may become counter-productive ...

A series of computational hydraulic analyses are applied for the open channels with vertical and inclined banks. During the analyses, riverbank vegetation density on inclined surface were increased to measure the flow ...

When an earthquake occurs, the site destruction is substantially affected by the soil response. For a long period, spectral acceleration and seismic resistant structures of the site has been employed for designing. The ...

Scholars in the construction management field have highlighted the importance of analyzing and managing the project stakeholders effectively, since the project success or failure is related to their perceptions of the value ...

This thesis deals with the monthly rainfall of six meteorological regions and TRNC (North Cyprus) as a whole for the hydrologic years from September 1975 to August 2014 period. In order to study these gathered monthly data ...
