The migration of population towards big cities generates rapid construction activities. These activities not only put pressure on natural resources but also produce construction, renovation and demolitionwaste. There is an urgent need to find out ways to handle this waste owing to growing environmental concerns. This can reduce pressure on natural resources as well. This paper presents the results of experimental studies which were carried out on hot mix asphalt mixture samples. These samples were manufactured by adding recycled aggregates (RA) with natural crushed stone aggregates (CSA). Three levels of addition of RA were considered in the presented studies. RA were obtained from both the concrete waste of construction, renovation and demolition activities and reclaimed asphalt pavement. Separate samples were manufactured with the coarse and fine aggregate fractions of both types of RA. Samples made with CSA were used as control specimens. The samples were prepared and tested using the Marshall method. The performance of the samples was investigated in terms of density-void and stability/flow analysis and was compared with the performance criteria as given by National Highway Authority for wearing course material in Pakistan. Based on this data optimum asphalt contents were determined. All the samples made by adding up to 50% RA conform to the specification requirements of wearing course material as given by National Highway Authority in terms of optimum asphalt contents, voids in mineral aggregates and stability/flow. A statistical analysis of variation of these samples confirmed that addition is also possible statistically.

Developing multi-objective linear programming approaches for traffic signal optimization
Coşkun, Mustafa Murat; Toroslu, İsmail Hakkı; Şener, Cevat; Department of Computer Engineering (2021-7)
In many countries and metropolitan cities, traffic congestion, mainly caused by population growth and the increase in urbanization, has reached a significant level and has become a major problem for residents and decision-makers. Today, although infrastructural strategies such as the construction of underpasses and road widening to alleviate traffic congestion are applied in urban networks, the strategies can also be quite costly and environmentally damaging. Therefore, decision makers allocate large bu...
Critical evaluation of smart mobility policies of Konya metropolitan municipality
Nalçakar, Zeyneb Zuhal; Balaban, Osman; Department of Urban Policy Planning and Local Governments (2019)
As population in urban areas increases and problems arise as a consequence, many cities turn to smart city transformation. Some scholars argue that smart cities can provide strong solutions to urban problems. Smart city discourse mainly touches upon six major concepts which cities are required to apply to become a smart city: Smart economy, smart people, smart governance, smart environment, smart living and finally smart mobility based on ICT. The most common issues based upon increasing population is trans...
Performance based seismic design of reinforced concrete tall buildings
Budak, Erhan; Sucuoğlu, Haluk; Department of Civil Engineering (2015)
Cities, their economies and populations are steadily increasing all over the world. In parallel, the land prices in those cities are rising enormously, hence the need for new living spaces has been arisen. These results bring some obligations and new perspectives for those cities in order to address their needs. In addition, improvements and developments in technological equipment, material science and analyses methods have opened great opportunities to construct new life areas by rising the vertical direct...
The role of urban agriculture in sustainable urban development, creation of social bonds and community formation
Erişen, Yağmur; Akkar Ercan, Zübeyde Müge; Urban Design in City and Regional Planning Department (2022-4-18)
With the ever-increasing urbanization, sustainable urban development has gained more importance. Actions to achieve sustainable urban development have been discussed from many perspectives. One of the prescribed actions for successful sustainable development is the sustainable communities according to the specific urban context, responding to the wants, needs and the culture of its community. With the COVID-19, people in cities realized the importance of green spaces and the critical need for socialization....
Computational Investigation of Urban Heat Island Mitigation Scenarios in Educational Buildings
Yazıcıoğlu, Gülin; Gürsel Dino, İpek; Meral Akgül, Çağla; Department of Architecture (2023-1-11)
Recent years have witnessed rapid urbanization due to an increase in population in cities. This will lead to the replacement of natural landscapes with impervious surfaces, and the acceleration of anthropogenic activities, which will increase waste heat. As a result of this, there is a temperature difference between the city centers and their suburbs, which is commonly referred to as an Urban Heat Island (UHI). As a result of the UHI phenomenon, many negative effects are associated with it, such as increase...
