Calculation methods to evaluate the strength of tension lap splices are based primarily on nonlinear regression analysis of test results. While the results from these analyses are extremely useful, applicability of their results beyond the domain of the data is often, questioned. The objective of this research was to develop an expression for the calculation of bond strength based on a physical model of tension cracking of concrete in the lap-spliced region. Two different types of failure modes are considered: horizontal splitting that develops at the level of the bars (side-splitting failure), and vertical splitting that develops along the bar on the face cover (face-splitting failure). The developed expression was verified using results from 203 unconfined and 278 confined beam tests where the splice region was subjected to constant moment.

Performance comparisons of seismic assessment methods with PSD test results of a deficient RC frame Ozcebe, G.; KURT, ELİF; Binici, Barış; Kurç, Özgür; Canbay, Erdem; Akpinar, U. (2009-12-01) The accuracy of estimating the performance levels of a deficient RC frame using linear elastic and nonlinear dynamic analysis is evaluated in this study. This was achieved by comparing the response of a structure tested with pseudo-dynamic testing and estimated by the linear elastic assessment procedures along with nonlinear dynamic analysis. The test structure (three bay-two storey planar frame) is a 1/2 scale reinforced concrete frame having masonry infill walls in the central span. The test frame contain...
Joint frequency offset and channel estimation Avan, Muhammet; Candan, Çağatay; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2008) In this thesis study, joint frequency offset and channel estimation methods for single-input single-output (SISO) systems are examined. The performance of maximum likelihood estimate of the parameters are studied for different training sequences. Conventionally training sequences are designed solely for the channel estimation purpose. We present a numerical comparison of different training sequences for the joint estimation problem. The performance comparisons are made in terms of mean square estimation err...
Joint shear strength prediction for reinforced concrete beam-to-column connections Unal, Mehmet; Burak Bakır, Burcu (2012-02-10) In this analytical study numerous prior experimental studies on reinforced concrete beam-to-column connections subjected to cyclic loading are investigated and a database of geometric properties, material strengths, configuration details and test results of subassemblies is established. Considering previous experimental research and employing statistical correlation method, parameters affecting joint shear capacity are determined. Afterwards, an equation to predict the joint shear strength is formed based o...
Optimum design of reinforced concrete plane frames using harmony search algorithm Akın, Alper; Saka, Mehmet Polat; Department of Engineering Sciences (2010) In this thesis, the optimum design algorithm is presented for reinforced concrete special moment frames. The objective function is considered as the total cost of reinforced concrete frame which includes the cost of concrete, formwork and reinforcing steel bars. The cost of any component is inclusive of material, fabrication and labor. The design variables in beams are selected as the width and the depth of beams in each span, the diameter and the number of longitudinal reinforcement bars along the span and...
Non-Abelian gauge theories of the Yang-Mills type Abuhatab, Ahmed; Başkal, Sibel; Department of Physics (2003) In this thesis, starting from the effective Lagrangians of the standard Yang-Mills, higher derivative Yang-Mills and the Chern-Simons- Yang-Mills theories, we have given the corresponding field equations and the symmetric gauge invariant energy- momentum tensors. Lagrangians containing higher derivative terms have been found useful for discussing the long lange effects of the gluon fields. A numeri cal solution is found for a spherically symmetric static gauge potential. On the other hand, Chern-Simons- Yan...
