Discharge measurement and control structures are widely employed in hydraulic engineering applications. The objective of this study is to numerically investigate the modelling of two different structures, namely sharp-crested weirs as Problem 1 and combined weir and gate systems as Problem 2. The research methodology herein is based on the comparison of results of numerical simulations with experimental data for both problems separately. For the purpose of performing numerical simulations, the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations are solved by finite volume formulation using commercially available Flow-3D software. Assessment of empirical data and numerical findings for both problems reveals that discharge rates agree reasonably well. In addition, using the capabilities of numerical modelling, weir and gate discharge coefficients in the combined system are calculated separately which were not easy to obtain in experimental studies. It is seen that gate and weir discharge coefficients of the combined system are different and higher than the corresponding coefficients of the individual systems. (c) 2020 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Effective Stress and Shear Strength of Moist Uniform Spheres
Toker, Nabi Kartal; Culligan, Patricia J. (Wiley, 2014-05-01)
In continuum soil mechanics, the mechanical behavior of an element of soil is related to the effective stress, which is a measure of the average stress transmitted through the solid matrix in the form of contact stresses. In unsaturated soils, the coexistence of water and air within the soil pore space complicates this concept because the microscopic distribution of each fluid phase in soil pores cannot be known. Because it is thus not possible to physically measure effective stress in unsaturated soils, it...
3D Modeling of Ripping Process
Basarir, Hakan; Karpuz, Celal; Tutluoglu, Levent (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2008-01-01)
Due to environmental constraints and limitations on blasting, ripping as a ground loosening and breaking method has become more popular than drilling and blasting method in both mining and civil engineering applications. The best way of estimating the rippability of rocks is to conduct direct ripping runs in the field. However, it is not possible to conduct direct ripping runs in all sites using different dozer types. Therefore, the utilization of numerical modeling of ripping systems becomes unavoidable. A...
Uncertainty quantification of transient unsaturated seepage through embankment dams
Çalamak, Melih; Yanmaz, Ali Melih (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2017-06-01)
Sensitivity analysis is conducted to investigate the effects of uncertainty in hydraulic conductivity and van Genuchten parameters on transient seepage. To this end, a random number generator is used to generate random values from probability distributions of each parameter. The generator is coupled with finite-element software that handles seepage analysis in porous media. The Monte Carlo simulation approach is adopted for stochastic seepage analyses. The suggested method is applied on a homogeneous dam ma...
Numerical modeling of failure in composite L-beam and T-joint structures
Temiz, Pakize; Çöker, Demirkan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2022-12-02)
Laminated curved-shape composite structures which are used as stiffening components in aerospace, wind, automotive and marine industries are subjected to high radial and tangential stresses. For the scope of this thesis, different modelling strategies are investigated to simulate interlaminar and intralaminar failure in composite L-beam and T-joint structures using commercial finite element (FE) code ABAQUS/Standard 2020. In the first part, [030] and [03/903/03/903/03]s laminated L-beams are evaluated using...
Perfect gas navier-stokes solutions hypersonic boundary layer and compression corner flows
Aziz, Şaduman; Çelenligil, Mehmet Cevdet; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2005)
The purpose of this thesis is to perform numerical solutions of hypersonic, high temperature, perfect gas flows over various geometries. Three dimensional, thin layer, compressible, Navier-Stokes equations are solved. An upwind finite difference approach with Lower Upper-Alternating Direction Implicit (LU-ADI) decomposition is used. Solutions of laminar, hypersonic, high temperature, perfect gas flows over flat plate and compression corners (qw=5°, 10°, 14°, 15°, 16°, 18° and 24°) with eight different free-...
