An Interdisciplinary Approach for Regional Seismic Damage Estimation
Askan Gündoğan, Ayşegül; Erberik, Murat Altuğ; Karim Zadeh Naghshineh, Shaghayegh; Yakut, Ahmet (2017-01-09)
In order to mitigate seismic risk in urban regions, the first task is to identify potential seismic losses in future earthquakes. Seismic loss estimation is an interdisciplinary framework including a wide range of contributions from geophysical and earthquake engineers, physical and economic planners to insurance companies. In this study, a moderate size city in Turkey, namely Erzincan, is modeled completely from geophysical attributes to the built environment. Erzincan city is on the eastern part of the No...
AN INTEGRATED MODELING APPROACH FOR ASSESSING THE IMPACTS OF A NATURAL GAS-FIRED POWER-PLANT ON SOIL ACIDIFICATION
KILIC, B; KAYIN, S; MUKHALLALATI, L; SOYUPAK, S; ONDER, K; YURTERI, C (1994-11-01)
Environmental impacts of a proposed natural gas-fired power plant was assessed by coupling an atmospheric deposition model with a soil acidification model. Long-term and short-term impacts of atmospheric dispersion and deposition of pollutants, especially NO(x), on the quality of air were estimated within the local scale using a short term dispersion model. The long-term soil response to acid deposition was simulated by a model which predicts the number of years required to reach critical soil pH values.
An Integrated optimization and simulation approach for the ambulance location problem
Şahin Macit, Medine; Meral, Fatma Sedef; Department of Industrial Engineering (2015)
Management of smooth-functioning Emergency Medical Services (EMS) along with efficient and effective utilization of ambulances which are an essential part of this service is of vital importance. Selecting the suitable location of ambulance stations and the allocation of ambulances to their corresponding stations are important decisions which directly affect the quality of response to an emergency case. In this study, an integrated optimization and simulation approach is proposed so as to determine the size ...
An Automated defect detection approach for cosmic functional size measurement
Yılmaz, Gökçen; Demirörs, Onur; Department of Information Systems (2012)
Software size measurement provides a basis for software project management and plays an important role for its activities such as project management estimations, process benchmarking, and quality control. As size can be measured with functional size measurement (FSM) methods in the early phases of the software projects, functionality is one of the most frequently used metric. On the other hand, FSMs are being criticized by being subjective. The main aim of this thesis is increasing the accuracy of the measu...
An interdisciplinary heuristic evaluation method for universal building design
AFACAN, YASEMİN; Erbuğ, Çiğdem (Elsevier BV, 2009-07-01)
This study highlights how heuristic evaluation as a usability evaluation method can feed into Current building design practice to conform to universal design principles. It provides a definition of universal usability that is applicable to an architectural design context. It takes the seven universal design principles as a set of heuristics and applies an iterative sequence of heuristic evaluation in a shopping mall, aiming to achieve a cost-effective evaluation process. The evaluation was composed of three...
