A Model study on wave transmission through pile breakwaters
Bilici, Çağdaş; Yalçıner, Ahmet Cevdet; Ergin, Ayşen; Department of Civil Engineering (2014)
In the present study, wave transmission through pile breakwaters is examined experimentally. The experiments consist of eight model cases of set-up placed in three different wave flumes in Ocean Engineering Research Centre, Civil Engineering Department, Middle East Technical University with a model scale of 12.857. These experiments mainly focused on understanding how wave transmission changes under the influence of regular incident wave characteristics with different breakwater cross sections. Results are ...
A model study on the effects of wall stiffness and surcharge on dynamic lateral earth pressures
Çilingir, Ulaş; Özkan, M. Yener; Department of Civil Engineering (2005)
A model study on laterally braced sheet pile walls retaining cohesionless soil was conducted using 1-g shaking table. Lateral dynamic earth pressures, backfill accelerations and dynamic displacement of walls were measured. Input accelerations were kept between 0.03g to 0.27g. A data acquisition system consisting of dynamic pressure transducers, accelerometers, displacement transducer, signal conditioning board and a data acquisition card compatible with a personal computer was used during the study. Three d...
A study on the discretization of fractional Brownian motion
Coşkun, Buket; Vardar Acar, Ceren; Demirtaş, Hakan (2020-12-01)
In this study, we first discretize the fractional Brownian motion in time and observe multivariate Gaussian random variables (mGrv) to have a fractional Gaussian noise (fGn). Afterwards, we have discretized this discrete time process in space using a discretization proportion p and observe a random walk. We carry out this simulation study to foresee whether the correlated random walk using certain discretization parameters p behave similar to fBm. Based on this simulation study, we conclude on two important...

A Study on Tensile Strength of Compacted Fine-Grained Soils
Dagar, Volkan; Çokça, Erdal (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-08-01)
The tensile strength of clay is a major mechanical parameter and the main controlling parameter of tensile crack development which is generally encountered in geostructures. In this experimental study, 8-shaped direct tensile test and split tensile test were used to measure the tensile strength of compacted clay soil. Unconfined compression tests on the same clay samples were also carried out. Tensile strength and unconfined compression test results were compared. Laboratory tests were performed on Ankara c...
