Dam break analyses of Berdan Dam were performed to determine the potential risk areas of floodplain and to help the preparation of emergency action plans. Digital elevation model created from bathymetric maps, flow hydrograph obtained for catastrophic condition, and sub-regions classified by land cover maps were integrated into HEC-RAS model. The reservoir of Berdan Dam and two-dimensional flow area was created on GIS-based geometric data which was converted from the digital elevation model to a triangulated irregular network. Breach parameters were calculated according to the selected dam breach mechanism. When all hydraulic and hydrological parameters were specified depending on variables and selected dam breach mechanism, simulations were run under piping and overtopping scenarios. Finally, the flood inundation maps were visualized on the digital elevation model with the help of RAS-Mapper in terms of depth, velocity, water surface elevation, and flood arrival time.

Numerical simulation of the Kirazlıköprü dam failure on the Gökırmak river Karakaya, Koray; Bozkuş, Zafer; Department of Civil Engineering (2005) Numerical dam break analyses of Kirazliköprü Dam are performed under various hydraulic scenarios. Kirazliköprü Dam is located on the Gökirmak River near the city of Bartin. The objective of these analyses is to investigate adverse effects of such dam break failure on the regions downstream of the dam. The numerical model used in the simulations is FLDWAV, which is developed by the National Weather Service (NWS) in the United States. It appears that most adversely effected regions are those that are closest ...
Pre-event dam failure analyses for emergency management Bozkuş, Zafer (2001-12-01) Simultaneous dam-break analyses of two dams, namely the Nilüfer and Doǧanci dams, due to a breach in their bodies, were performed under various hydraulic conditions. Both of the dams are located in the same river branch of the Nilufer Basin in the province of Bursa in Turkey. The main purpose of the study was to see the negative effects of such failure on the city of Bursa, which is located downstream of the dams, as well as to make available the results of the study to the relevant public officials for the...
FLOOD MANAGEMENT AND REMEDIAL MEASURES FOR DIKMEN, NORTHERN CYPRUS Yaqubi, Noor Ahmad; Zaifoğlu, Hasan; Akıntuğ, Bertuğ; Sustainable Environment and Energy Systems (2022-8) This study aims to execute a flood management system and examine the appropriate structural measures to protect Dikmen town against the impacts of flooding. At first, hydrologic models using HEC-HMS tools are developed to simulate the rainfall-runoff processes in each of the three main ungauged sub-basins on the upstream side of the town. Next, the discharge hydrographs of the 5th December 2018 flood event are defined in the 2D HEC-RAS model, and the flood inundation maps of the study area are generated. T...
Performance of concrete gravity dams under earthquake effects Soysal, Berat Feyza; Arıcı, Yalın; Department of Civil Engineering (2014) Concerns about the seismic safety of gravity dams have increased with the construction of numerous new dams in the developing world as well as the need for the evaluation of existing dam stock in the developed countries. The common procedure for the design of concrete gravity dams has been linear analyses: there is scant experience on the design of such systems using nonlinear analyses as the post-linear behavior and performance limits of gravity dam monoliths are not well known. This study is focused on th...
Afet Riski Yönetimi Kapsamında Kent Planlama; İstanbul Planları Ve Uygulamalar Özyetgin Altun, Ayşe; Öğdül, Hürriyet Gülsün (Middle East Technical University Faculty of Architecture, 2021-12-01) Araştırmanın temel sorusu Türkiye’de kent planlamanın afet riski azaltımı ve yönetimi (ARAY) sürecinde etkin rol alıp almadığıdır. 1999 yılı Gölcük ve Düzce depremleri Türkiye’deki plansız kentleşme sorunun büyük acılara ve ekonomik kayba neden olabileceğini çarpıcı bir şekilde göstermiştir. Aynı zamanda sadece acil durum müdahalesi yöntemi ile afetlere karşı ne kadar hazırlıksız kalındığı anlaşılmıştır. Ardından geçen yaklaşık yirmi yıllık süreçte Türkiye’de ARAY kabulleri uluslararası perspektifle paralel...
