A numerical method for the gas production process in gas hydrate reservoirs Durgut, I; Parlaktuna, Mahmut (1996-06-06)
A numerical study on response factors for steel wall-frame systems Arslan, Hakan; Topkaya, Cem; Department of Civil Engineering (2009) A numerical study has been undertaken to evaluate the response of dual systems which consist of steel plate shear walls and moment resisting frames. The primary objective of the study was to investigate the influence of elastic base shear distribution between the wall and the frame on the global system response. A total of 10 walls and 30 wall-frame systems, ranging from 3 to 15 stories, were selected for numerical assessment. These systems represent cases in which the elastic base shear resisted by the fra...
A comparative study on the nonlinear behavior of chevron and suspended zipper braced steel frames Özçelik, Ahmet Yiğit; Sarıtaş, Afşin; Department of Civil Engineering (2010) Chevron braced steel frames require large beams to redistribute the unbalanced vertical forces exerted on the beams after brace buckling. A new frame configuration similar to chevron brace was proposed in literature, where zipper columns were attached between mid-spans of the beams from second to top story. During severe ground motion, the unbalanced vertical forces caused by buckling of lower story braces are in this case redistributed to the upper story braces by these zipper columns. Consequently, all st...
A numerical study on special truss moment frames Ölmez, Harun Deniz; Topkaya, Cem; Department of Civil Engineering (2009) A three-phase numerical study was undertaken to address some design issues related with special truss moment frames (STMFs). In the first phase, the design approaches for distribution of shear strength among stories were examined. Multistory STMFs sized based on elastic and inelastic behavior were evaluated from a performance point of view. A set of time history analysis was conducted to investigate performance parameters such as the interstory drift ratio and the plastic rotation at chord member ends. The ...
A comperative assessment of available methods for seismic performance evaluation of buried structures Özcebe, Ali Güney; Çetin, Kemal Önder; Department of Civil Engineering (2009) In the last three decades, seismic performance assessment of buried structures has evolved through the following stages : i) buried structures are not prone to seismically-induced damages, thus no need for detailed investigations, ii) eliminating soil-structure-earthquake interaction and use of seismically-induced free field ground deformations directly as the basis for seismic demand, thus producing conservative results, and finally iii) soil-structure and earthquake interaction models incorporating both k...
