Climate changes yet business as usual: a parable of sustainable rural cities in Chiapas, Mexico Topal Yılmaz, Aylin (Informa UK Limited, 2019-03-09) This article dwells upon rural reconstruction projects that have been implemented under the rubric of 'Sustainable Rural Cities' (SRCs) since the late 2000s in Chiapas, Mexico. It aims to examine the motivations of the central and local governments in designing and executing these projects. While the goals behind these projects were stated as mitigating climate change and alleviating rural poverty, this article claims that SRCs could be understood as part and parcel of the overall transformation of the rura...
Climate change, agriculture and trade policy: CGE analyses at regional, national and global level Dudu, Hasan; Gaygısız Lajunen, Esma; Department of Economics (2013) This thesis investigates the effects of climate change on the Turkish economy by using computable general equilibrium (CGE) models at regional, national and global level. The physical impact of climate change is first translated into yield and irrigation requirement shocks by using a crop-hydrology model developed for this study. Then these are introduced into the CGE models as productivity shocks to investigate their effects on the overall economy. Simulation results suggest that climate change will come i...
CLIMATE CHANGE IMPACT ON A 3D PRINTED CONCRETE BUILDING Üğütmen, Furkan Sinan; Gürsel Dino, İpek; Akgül, Çağla; Department of Architecture (2023-1-19) 3D concrete printing has great potential to enhance the development of the construction industry with the benefits of reduced construction waste and decreased labor dependency due to no formwork requirement, ease of construction of complex geometries, and low cost. 3D concrete printing technologies will enable recycled and high-performance materials in printable concrete components, which cannot be used with traditional construction methods. Despite these benefits, it is still not standard in the constructi...
Climate change and future proofing infrastructure: Etimesgut, Ankara case study Oruç, Sertaç; Yılmaz, Ayşen; Yücel, İsmail; Department of Earth System Science (2018) This study examines the potential impacts of climate change and land use/cover change; investigates how to incorporate these changes into urban stormwater network design. Rainfall analysis with stationary and nonstationary approach for observed and future conditions is performed for the (1950-2015 period) observed data and projections (2015-2098 period) for Ankara province, Turkey. Daily projections are disaggregated to finer scales and used for future period the analysis. Nonstationary Generalized Extreme ...
Climate Change Impact on Multi-Objective Optimization: A Case Study on Educational Buildings Akın, Şahin; Işeri, Orçun Koral; Akgül, Çağla; Erdoğan, Bilge; Gürsel Dino, Ipek (null; 2020-05-23) The changing weather conditions due to global climate change is expected to have a direct impact on buildings’ energy demand and occupant comfort. These conditions are estimated to become more challenging for educational facilities due to their high occupant density and the students’ sensitivity to heat. This study aims to present an approach for a comparative analysis for multi-objective optimization results that are projected under different climate change conditions. Two separate optimization processes w...
