Computational Modelling of Damage Progression in Unreinforced Masonry Walls via DEM Pulatsu, Bora; Tuncay, Kağan (2024-05-01) Unreinforced masonry (URM) walls are the common load-bearing elements for old masonry buildings and heritage structures. As witnessed from the past and recent earthquakes, URM walls may demonstrate various collapse mechani...
Maximum Drift Demands of Earthquake Damaged Reinforced Concrete Columns Based on Residual Flexure Cracks Aydın, Beyazıt Bestami; Binici, Barış; AKTAŞ, SAİME SELİN; Hendriks, Max A. N.; Tuncay, Kağan (2024-01-01) Assessment of existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures after an earthquake is a challenging task that must somehow relate qualitative and quantitative observations in the plastic hinge regions and the associated residu...
Analysis and prediction of masonry wallette strength under combined compression-bending via stochastic computational modeling Gonen, Semih; Pulatsu, Bora; Lourenço, Paulo B.; Lemos, José V.; Tuncay, Kağan; Erduran, Emrah (2023-03-01) The out-of-plane flexural bending capacity of masonry is a fundamental property for understanding the behavior of masonry structures. This study investigates the behavior of unreinforced masonry wallettes subjected to comb...
Macro-Block and DEM-Based Probabilistic Analysis to Predict In-Plane Structural Behavior of URM Pier–Spandrel Systems Pulatsu, Bora; Gonen, Semih; Lourenço, Paulo B.; Tuncay, Kağan (2023-01-01) In the last several decades, computational modeling of unreinforced masonry buildings has been a subject of interest in the field of structural and conservation engineering. Different computational modeling techniques are ...
Probabilistic approach to assess URM walls with openings using discrete rigid block analysis (D-RBA) Pulatsu, Bora; Gonen, Semih; Parisi, Fulvio; Erdogmus, Ece; Tuncay, Kağan; Funari, Marco Francesco; Lourenco, Paulo B. (2022-12-01) This study aims to improve our current understanding of the seismic assessment of load-bearing unreinforced masonry (URM) systems by proposing a probabilistic computational modeling framework using the discrete element met...
A method to estimate traffic penetration rates of commercial floating car data using speed information Altintasi, Oruc; Tüydeş Yaman, Hediye; Tuncay, Kağan (2022-08-05) Floating Car Data (FCD) are being increasingly used as an alternative traffic data source due to its lower cost and high coverage area. FCD can be obtained by tracking vehicle trajectories individually or by processing mul...
A modified applied element model for the simulation of plain concrete behaviour Soysal, Berat Feyza; Arıcı, Yalın; Tuncay, Kağan (2022-08-01) A modified applied element model to simulate the behaviour of plain concrete continuum structures including discrete cracking is proposed in this study. In the classical applied element model, Poisson effects are fully ign...
Identifying buildings with high collapse risk based on samos earthquake damage inventory in Izmir Binici, Barış; Yakut, Ahmet; Canbay, Erdem; Tuncay, Kağan (2022-01-01) Samos Earthquake caused the collapse of about fifty buildings in Izmir city center, resulting in over 120 fatalities. The response spectra of the ground motions at the soft soil sites in Izmir revealed that the spectral ac...
Lattice modeling and testing of aerated autoclaved concrete infilled frames Aydın, Beyazıt Bestami; Binici, Barış; Tuncay, Kağan (2022-01-01) Significant infill wall damage in reinforced concrete frame buildings was observed in the past earthquakes. A vast number of numerical approaches have been proposed to estimate the non-linear behavior of infilled frames at...
Shallow foundation analysis by smoothed particle hydrodynamics method Emren, Volkan; Tuncay, Kağan (2021-09-08) This paper illustrates the use of Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) technique to compute the bearingcapacity of shallow foundations and establish their failure mechanism. SPH is a numerical method based on aLagrangian ...
