Pressure drop and consecutive air demand behind high head gates during emergency closure is studied by physical and mathematical models. Measurements are done on hydraulic model of a leaf gate installed in the intake structure of a penstock. Local loss coefficients are determined as functions of Reynolds number and gate openings from measurements of discharge and piezometric levels at static positions of the gate. A mathematical model for the unsteady flow due to closing gate is formed by applying the integral continuity and energy equations on control volumes upstream and downstream of the gate. Dimensionless numbers relevant to the problem are obtained by dimensional analysis of the governing equations. Timewise variations of air discharge in the ventilation shaft and pressure behind the gate are obtained from numerical solution of the model equations. The relative air demand is computed over substantial ranges of dimensionless parameters and some design considerations are discussed.

Predicting the shear strength of reinforced concrete beams using artificial neural networks
Mansour, MY; Dicleli, Murat; Lee, JY; Zhang, J (Elsevier BV, 2004-05-01)
The application of artificial neural networks (ANNs) to predict the ultimate shear strengths of reinforced concrete (RC) beams with transverse reinforcements is investigated in this paper. An ANN model is built, trained and tested using the available test data of 176 RC beams collected from the technical literature. The data used in the ANN model are arranged in a format of nine input parameters that cover the cylinder concrete compressive strength, yield strength of the longitudinal and transverse reinforc...
Nonlinear mixing length model for prediction of secondary currents in uniform channel flows
Aydın, İsmail (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2009-01-29)
A nonlinear turbulence model for numerical solution of uniform channel flow is presented. Turbulent stresses are evaluated from a nonlinear mixing length model that relates turbulent stresses to quadratic products of the mean rate of strain and the mean vorticity. The definition of the mixing length, based on a three-dimensional integral measure of boundary proximity, eliminates the need for solution of additional transport equations for the turbulence quantities. Experimental data from the literature for c...
Spatial sensitivity of seismic hazard results to different background seismic activity and temporal earthquake occurrence models
Yilmaz, Nazan; Yücemen, Mehmet Semih (Elsevier BV, 2011-07-01)
Spatial sensitivity of seismic hazard results to different models with respect to background seismic activity and earthquake occurrence in time is investigated. For the contribution of background seismic activity to seismic hazard, background area source with uniform seismicity and spatially smoothed seismicity models are taken into consideration. For the contribution of faults, through characteristic earthquakes, both the memoryless Poisson and the time dependent renewal models are utilized. A case study, ...
Building-Information-Modeling-Based Earthquake Damage Assessment for Reinforced Concrete Walls
Anil, Engin Burak; Akinci, Burcu; Kurç, Özgür; Garrett, James H. (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2016-07-01)
Engineering analysis to quantify the effects of earthquake forces on the structural strength of components requires determining the damage mode and severity of the components. The analysis requires strength computations and visual damage assessments, which are information intensive, potentially error-prone, and slow. This study develops a building-information-modeling (BIM) based approach to support the engineering analysis of reinforced concrete structures. In the proposed approach, the damage information ...
Upgrading of slab-column connections using fiber reinforced polymers
Binici, Barış (Elsevier BV, 2005-01-01)
The results of an experimental program on upgrading of reinforced concrete slab-column connections subjected to monotonic shear and unbalanced moment transfer are presented in this study. Externally installed carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) stirrups acting as shear reinforcement around the slab-column connection area were used with two patterns of CFRP arrangements. It was found that the proposed method resulted in punching shear capacity increases up to 60% relative to the specimen without any stren...
