This paper gives the results of the several large flat jack (LFJ) and plate jacking tests carried out at two dam sites to determine the rock mass deformability. The moduli of deformability and elasticity obtained with these methods are compared, and the difficulties associated with the application of LFJ technique in hard rock masses are touched on.

Evaluation of topological forms for weight-effective optimum design of single-span steel truss bridges Hasançebi, Oğuzhan (2011-08-01) This paper reports a comparative study on design weight efficiency of single span steel truss bridge topologies subjected to gravity loads. The bridges configured according to nine distinct topological forms (namely, Pratt, Parker, Baltimore, Petit, K-Truss, Warren, Subdivided Warren, Quadrangular Warren and Whipple) are designed for minimum weight under various span length requirements of single span truss bridges, and the results obtained with these topological forms are compared. The optimization process...
Comparison of different methods on the enrichment of Konya Inlice epithermal gold ores Döğme, Ayşe Nur (2020-01-01) In this study, firstly, enrichment experiments were carried out on the epithermal gold ore belonging to the Konya-Inlice region containing 2.38 ppm Au-containing oxide type ore and 1.39 ppm Au-containing sulfur ore with using Falcon device as a gravity enrichment method. In these group experiments, the effects of parameters such as centrifugal force, bowl type effect, and a solid ration of feeding were investigated. As the second enrichment method, the conventional flotation technique was applied. In these ...
Measurement of the production cross section of a W boson in association with two b jets in pp collisions at root s=8TeV Khachatryan, V.; et. al. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2017-02-01) The production cross section of a W boson in association with two b jets is measured using a sample of proton-proton collisions at root s = 8 TeV collected by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 19.8 fb(-1). The W bosons are reconstructed via their leptonic decays, W -> l(v) where l = mu or e. The fiducial region studied contains exactly one lepton with transverse momentum pT(l) > 30 GeV and pseudorapidity |eta(l)| < 2.1, with exactly two b jets wit...
Numerical analyses of load tests on model foundations in dry sand Unsever, Y. S.; Matsumoto, T.; Özkan, M. Yener (2015-01-01) In this study, a series of vertical and cyclic horizontal load tests on 3-pile piled raft model were carried out in dry sand to investigate the piled raft behaviour under combined loads. Also, numerical modelling of experiments were carried out by using FEM software, PLAXIS 3D. Hardening soil model was employed to model the sand, and elastic model was used for the pile and the raft. Soil parameters were estimated from consolidated drained triaxial tests carried on the sand samples and pile parameters were e...
Comparison of pseudo dynamic test results and numerical results of an RCC dam model Aldemir, Alper; Binici, Barış; Canbay, Erdem (2015-07-21) Inspired from the simplified single degree of freedom modeling approach used in the preliminary design of concrete gravity dams, a single degree of freedom pseudo dynamic testing method was devised for the seismic testing of a concrete gravity dam section. The test specimen was a 1/75 scaled section of the 120 m high monolith of the Melen Dam, one of the highest concrete gravity dams to be built in Turkey. First, the single degree of freedom idealization of the dam section was validated in the first stage o...
