Guldurcek dam located in the central Anatolia was subjected to longitudinal cracks of not wider than 2 cm during 6 June 2000 Orta earthquake. In this study, a brief account of the 6 June 2000 Orta earthquake is given and the results of dynamic FEM analyses of the dam, incorporating the non-linear soil properties under six selected base motions, are presented. Of the six base motions used in the analyses, three have been modified from the European strong motion database having similar ground motion parameters with that of Orta earthquake; the other have been artificially generated using the same parameters. Pore pressure developed during shaking is also considered in the analyses carried out by the program TELDYN and the results are compared with those computed by QUAD4M without considering the excess pore pressures. It is found that New mark displacement analysis predicts the measured displacements after the earthquake in a reasonable accuracy.

An evaluation of Surgu Dam response during 5 May 1986 earthquake Ozkan, MY; Erdik, M; Tuncer, MA; Yilmaz, C (Elsevier BV, 1996-01-01) Surgu Dam, located in southeast Turkey was subjected to longitudinal cracks on the dam crest and simultaneous settlement on the upstream part of the day, during 5 May 1986 Malatya Earthquake. In the following, a brief account of the 5 May 1986 earthquake and the damage occurred in the dam is reviewed, and the results of a dynamic finite element analysis incorporating the non-linear soil properties are presented. It is observed that, a Newmark type permanent displacement analysis carried out under simulated ...
A comparative study on the actual and estimated seismic response of Kiralkizi Dam in Turkey Çetin, Kemal Önder; Batmaz, S; Karabiber, S (Informa UK Limited, 2005-07-01) Kiralkizi Dam, a 120 in high earthfill dam located in Diyarbakir city, Turkey, was shaken by a moment magnitude, M-w = 4.6 earthquake at an epicentral distance of 8 km, on December 24, 2000, at 13:31 local time. The seismic response of the dam was assessed by using spectral ratios between (i) available crest and foundation records (C/F), (ii) horizontal and vertical components of the recorded motions (H/V), (iii) by performing 2 dimensional finite difference-based seismic response analyses (Flac-2D), and (i...
Analysis of a highway embankment failure associated with the 1999 Duzce, Turkey earthquake Bakır, Bahadır Sadık (Elsevier BV, 2005-04-01) An embankment slope on a major highway totally collapsed during 12 November 1999 Duzce earthquake (M-w = 7.1) due to the intense near field ground motion. The slope had performed satisfactorily, without even minor deformations or cracks, during the Izmit earthquake (M-w = 7.4), another major event that occurred 3 months before and was far field. Predominantly coarse-grained fill of the embankment exhibited typical non-brittle behavior during laboratory tests, implying that the prefailure shear strength woul...
An evaluation of the strong ground motion recorded during the May 1, 2003 Bingol Turkey, earthquake Akkar, S; Boore, DM; Gulkan, P (Informa UK Limited, 2005-03-01) An important record of ground motion from a M6.4 earthquake occurring on May 1, 2003, at epicentral and fault distances of about 12 and 9 km, respectively, was obtained at a station near the city of Bingol, Turkey. The maximum peak ground values of 0.55 g and 36 cm/s are among the largest ground-motion amplitudes recorded in Turkey. From simulations and comparisons with ground motions from other earthquakes of comparable magnitude, we conclude that the ground motion over a range of frequencies is unusually ...
The 2014 seismic hazard model of the Middle East: overview and results Şeşetyan, Karin; et. al. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2018-08-01) The Earthquake Model of Middle East (EMME) Project aimed to develop regional scale seismic hazard and risk models uniformly throughout a region extending from the Eastern Mediterranean in the west to the Himalayas in the east and from the Gulf of Oman in the south to the Greater Caucasus in the North; a region which has been continuously devastated by large earthquakes throughout the history. The 2014 Seismic Hazard Model of Middle East (EMME-SHM14) was developed with the contribution of several institution...
