Seismic performance evaluation of roller compacted concrete gravity dams by pseudo dynamic testing Aldemir, Alper; Binici, Barış; Department of Civil Engineering (2016) The energy demands throughout the world have reached a level that could create irreversible impacts on the environment unless an overall energy policy to reduce the energy production relying on fossil fuels is implemented. The apparent effects of global warming enforced countries to take precautions and to set limits on the fossil fuel consumption. Thus, the renewable energy sources like hydropower, solar energy, biomass, etc. have, nowadays, been encouraged to generate electricity. Certainly, dams are exce...
Seismic Performance Evaluation of Concrete Gravity Dams by Using Pseudo Dynamic Testing and Simulations Aldemir, Alper; Binici, Barış (null; 2017-11-24) Dams are one of the mostimportantinfrastructure components servingfor water storage and energyproduction.Experimental studies on the seismic response of concrete gravity dams are scarce due to the complications regarding thelargescaleof dams and their interaction with the reservoir. This study presents the results of recent novel pseudo-dynamic dam tests (PSD) along with the nonlinear finite element simulations of the specimens. The test specimens were 1/75 scaled version of the highest ...
Seismic performance assessment of reinforced concrete overpass bridges with nonlinear analyses Cantürk, Tolga; Baran, Eray; Department of Civil Engineering (2022-2) In this study, seismic performance assessment of reinforced concrete overpass bridges located along the currently under construction Kınalı-Tekirdağ-Çanakkale-Savaştepe Highway was conducted. Overpass bridges consisted of two-span precast concrete girders and reinforced concrete cast-in-place circular cross section columns. Because of proximity to active faults detailed seismic investigation of the region had already been conducted and site-specific seismic design spectrums had been developed. Structural de...
Seismic performance evaluation of reinforced concrete frames infilled with autoclave aerated concrete masonry Siddiqui, Umair Ahmed; Sucuoğlu, Haluk; Yakut, Ahmet; Department of Earthquake Engineering and Engineering Seismology (2013) Seismic risk reduction requires detailed assessment and rehabilitation of vulnerable buildings to avoid significant property and life losses. Several reinforced concrete buildings are deficiently designed and constructed and also contain non-engineered unreinforced masonry infill panels which dominate the seismic response and impart excessive lateral forces for which they are not designed for. Therefore, seismic performance assessment procedures recommended in guidelines and codes needs detailed examination...
Seismic analysis of concrete gravity dams including damfoundation-reservoir interaction Yücel, Ali Rıza; Binici, Barış; Department of Civil Engineering (2013) The attractiveness of the hydroelectric power as a domestic, clean and renewable energy source increased with the rise of the energy demand within the last decade. In this context, concrete gravity dam construction gained a high momentum. Use of roller compacted concrete as a dam construction material became popular due to advantages such as reducing the construction duration and costs. Concrete gravity dams are special type of structures which requires an extensive care for their seismic analysis and desig...
