A methodology for designing tonpilz-type transducers
Çepni, Kerim; Baker, Derek Keıth; Çalışkan, Mehmet; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2011)
Tonpilz-type transducers are the most commonly used projectors in underwater acoustic applications. However, no complete design approach is available in the literature for such transducers. The present study aims to fill this gap in the literature by providing a systematic design approach for the Tonpilz-type transducers. The proposed methodology involves the use of different analytical models and a finite element model of such transducers. Each model provides a different level of accuracy that is tightly c...
A methodology for lining design of circular mine shafts in different rock masses
Öztürk, Hasan (2016-09-01)
In this study, the finite element numerical modelling of 2D shaft sections in a Hoek-Brown medium are carried out in a non-hydrostatic stress state in an attempt to predict pressures developing around mine shafts. An iterative process of applying support pressure until observing no failure zone around the shaft is used to simulate the required lining support pressure for different shaft models. Later, regression analysis is carried out to find a generic shaft pressure equation representing the rock mass and...
A methodology for reliability-based design of rock slopes
DUZGUN, HSB; Yücemen, Mehmet Semih; Karpuz, Celal (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2003-04-01)
A reliability-based methodology for the design of rock slopes, that can easily be implemented by the practicing engineers is proposed. The advanced first-order second-moment (AFOSM) method is adopted as the reliability assessment model and its application is illustrated for the case of plane failure. A model is developed within the framework of first-order second-moment approach to analyze the uncertainties underlying the in situ shear strength properties of rock discontinuities. Here, particular emphasis i...

A Methodology for lining and design of circular mine shafts in different rock masses
Güler, Erdoğan; Öztürk, Hasan; Department of Mining Engineering (2013)
The objective of this thesis is to predict lining thickness inside circular mine shafts. A numerical study with different rock mass strengths and different in-situ non-hydrostatic stresses are carried out in 2D shaft section models to predict pressures that develop on lining support. An iterative process of applying support pressure until observing no failure zone around shaft is used to simulate lining support pressure for each individual model. Later, regression and fuzzy logic analyses are carried out to...
