Test method for appraising future durability of new concrete bridge decks Yaman, İsmail Özgür; Aktan, H.M.; Hearn, N.; Staton, J.F. (SAGE Publications, 2002-01-01) The nondestructive test procedure for quantifying the future durability of bridge deck concrete is based on the fundamental relationship between ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV) and the permeability of an elastic medium. An experimental study using standard concrete cylindrical specimens (ASTM C192) documented adequate sensitivity between UPV and permeability. The test procedure uses a parameter directly proportional to increase in-field concrete permeability called paste quality loss (PQL). The PQL is compu...
Test method for determining the shear modulus of elastomeric bearings Topkaya, Cem (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2002-06-01) The shear modulus of the elastomer is the most important material property related to the behavior of elastomeric bearings used principally at supports in bridges. Current methods for determining the shear modulus usually require small test samples cut from manufactured bearings. Such tests are costly, do not necessarily represent the performance of the full-size bearing, and are destructive. A new shear test method, called the inclined compression test, is reported that is nondestructive and only requires ...
Experimental Determination of Resistance Characteristics of Support Details Used in Prestressed Concrete Bridge Girders Baran, Eray; French, Catherine; Schultz, Arturo (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2009-09-01) Static load tests were performed on support details used at the ends of prestressed concrete pedestrian bridge girders to determine the resistance characteristics of girder supports in the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the girders. The specimens tested represent support details that have also been widely used in prestressed concrete highway bridges in Minnesota and in other states. Two specimens, one representing the free-end detail and one representing the restrained-end detail were s...
Experimental determination of tool wear in routing and trimming of CFRP composites Peker, Zühal; Akkök, Metin; Kılıç, S. Engin; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2015) In order to fulfill growing demand for lighter aircraft, Carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) have been developed, which differ from metals with regards to their machinability characteristics. The main problem in machining process is the damage caused by delamination of CFRP materials which need to be both cut and shorn of fibers at the same time, since they are remarkably abrasive in nature. This research aims at accessing the most appropriate cutting condition with less tool wear in routing and trimmin...
Evaluation of photovoltaic systems for voltage quality Şengül, Deniz; Göl, Murat; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2018) Because of the governmental incentives and developing photovoltaic technology, the distributed photovoltaic systems are populating rapidly in power systems. This rapid population brings with concerns about voltage quality of the power systems. This thesis aims to evaluate the effects of those plants to the voltage quality of power systems in terms of voltage regulation and flicker. The thesis develops a statistical analysis method by developing metrics for a photovoltaic power plant located in Ankara, using...
