In this thesis primarily structural induced liquefaction potential was aimed to be analyzed. Also the effect of base isolation systems both on structural performance and liquefaction potential was studied. FLAC software was chosen for the analyses so that structure and soil could be modeled together. By these means the soil structure interaction effects were also examined. Four different structures and three different sites were analyzed under two different input motions. All the structures were also analyzed as base isolated. It was mainly found that depending on the structural type and for a certain depth the liquefaction potential could be higher under the structure than the one in the free field. Also it was concluded that base isolation systems were very effective for decreasing the story drifts, shear forces in the structure and liquefaction potential in the soil. It was also found that the interaction took place between structure, soil and input motions.

Effect of soil-bridge interaction on the magnitude of internal forces in integral abutment bridge components due to live load effects
Dicleli, Murat (Elsevier BV, 2010-01-01)
In this study, the effect of soil-bridge interaction on the magnitude of the internal forces in integral abutment bridge (IAB) components due to live load effects is studied. For this purpose, structural models of typical IABs are built by including and excluding the effect of backfill and foundation soil. Analyses of the models are then conducted under an AASHTO live load. In the analyses, the effects of the backfill and foundation soil on the magnitude of the internal forces in IAB components are studied ...
Lateral load analysis of shear wall-frame structures
Akış, Tolga; Tokdemir, Turgut; Department of Engineering Sciences (2004)
The purpose of this study is to model and analyze the nonplanar shear wall assemblies of shear wall-frame structures. Two three dimensional models, for open and closed section shear wall assemblies, are developed. These models are based on conventional wide column analogy, in which a planar shear wall is replaced by an idealized frame structure consisting of a column and rigid beams located at floor levels. The rigid diaphragm floor assumption, which is widely used in the analysis of multistorey building st...
Investigation of relationship between aggregate shape parameters and concrete strength using imaging techniques
Özen, Murat; Güler, Murat; Department of Civil Engineering (2007)
In this study, relationships between aggregate shape parameters and compressive strength of concrete were investigated using digital image processing and analysis methods. The study was conducted based on three mix design parameters, gradation type, aggregate type and maximum aggregate size, at two levels. A total of 40 cubic concrete specimens were prepared at a constant water-cement ratio. After the compressive strength tests were performed, each specimen was cut into 4 equal pieces in order to obtain the...
Correlation of deformation demands with ground motion intensity
Yılmaz, Hazım; Yakut, Ahmet; Department of Civil Engineering (2007)
A comprehensive study has been carried out to investigate the correlation between deformation demands of frame structures and a number of widely cited ground motion intensity parameters. Nonlinear response history analyses of single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) and multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) models derived from sixteen reinforced concrete frames were carried out under a set of eighty ground motion records. The frames were selected to portray features of typical low-to-mid rise reinforced concrete structures...
A detailed analysis for evaluation of the degradation characteristics of simple structural systems
Kurtman, Burak; Erberik, Murat Altuğ; Department of Civil Engineering (2007)
Deterioration in the mechanical properties of concrete, masonry and steel structures are usually observed under repeated cyclic loading in the inelastic response range. Therefore such a behavior becomes critical when these types of structures are subjected to ground motions with specific characteristics. The objective of this study is to address the influence of degrading behavior on simple systems. The Structural Performance Database on the PEER web site, which contains the results of cyclic, lateral-load ...
