The development in world trade increases the importance of ports. Thus, construction of new ports or extension of existing ones and in relation to this enormous dimension of port investments become necessary. The optimum port size can be determined by computer simulation. Total cost is the sum of cost of quay structure and cargo handling equipment and cost of waiting time of the ships. In determining optimum port size, ship arrivals, service time and queuing discipline should be defined statistically for the best economical theoretical solution. The software HARSOL which is developed in METU, Civil Engineering Department, Coastal and Harbor Engineering Research Center, determines the port size which gives the minimum annual total cost by processing the phenomena such as random arrivals and random sizes of the ships which fits statistical distributions, queue discipline and service for loading unloading. In this study the general characteristics of port optimizing software HARSOL is introduced. -from Authors

Spatial dynamics of creative industries: The case of computer programming sector in Ankara
Durmaz Erçetin, Büşra; Kayasü, Serap; Department of City and Regional Planning (2022-11-11)
The development of cities and economies in the 21st century have been discussed through creative sectors. The Fordist mode of production, which was dominant until the 1970s, left its hegemony to the post Fordist mode based on flexible production and specialization. Widespread use of digital technologies and computerized production stand as one of the most prior features of this new post Fordist era. In the new era, based on knowledge and creativity, development have been undertaken by the sectors that can m...
Comparison of EKF, EKF2 and UKF in a loosely coupled INS/GPS integration
Jane, Hande; Baykal, Buyurman; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2018)
Developing effective navigation solutions in land, sea, air, and space travels is an ever increasing necessity maintaining its validity. Nowadays, although a navigation aid called satellite based Global Positioning System (GPS) is used to develop a navigation solution, standalone GPS cannot achieve the desired accuracy in some applications. For this reason, GPS measurements are integrated with the Inertial Navigation System (INS) to develop an enhanced accurate integrated navigation solution. Extended Kalma...
Performance of concrete gravity dams under earthquake effects
Soysal, Berat Feyza; Arıcı, Yalın; Department of Civil Engineering (2014)
Concerns about the seismic safety of gravity dams have increased with the construction of numerous new dams in the developing world as well as the need for the evaluation of existing dam stock in the developed countries. The common procedure for the design of concrete gravity dams has been linear analyses: there is scant experience on the design of such systems using nonlinear analyses as the post-linear behavior and performance limits of gravity dam monoliths are not well known. This study is focused on th...
Cash flow analysis of construction projects using fuzzy set theory
Melik, Serhat; Sönmez, Rifat; Department of Civil Engineering (2010)
Construction industry is a one of the most risky sectors due to high level of uncertainties included in the nature of the construction projects. Although there are many reasons, the deficiency of cash is one of the main factors threatening the success of the construction projects and causing business failures. Therefore, an appropriate cash planning technique is necessary for adequate cost control and efficient cash management while considering the risks and uncertainties of the construction projects. The m...
Türkiye’de Nüfusun Mekansal Dağılımında Yaşanan Gelişmeler (1935-2000)
Tekeli, İlhan (Middle East Technical University, Faculty of Architecture, 2005-3-2)
Bu yazıda Türkiye’de nüfusun mekansal dağılımının 1935-2000 yılları arasındaki değişme süreci, değişik teknikler kullanılarak betimlenmeye çalışılacaktır. Bu betimleme için geliştirilecek grafiklerin, göstergelerin yorumlanması ise bu çalışmayı salt bir betimleme olmanın ötesine geçirerek ona analitik ve normatif nitelikler kazandırabilecektir (2). Bir ülkenin nüfusu demografik, ekonomik ve siyasal süreçler sonucunda o ülke mekanı üzerinde sürekli olarak yeniden dağılmaktadır. Bu nedenle, değişik yıllara il...
