The literature's exploration of the Intelligent Building ...
DEVELOPMENT OF AN ACTIVITY-BASED LESSONS LEARNED PROCESS MODEL AND A TOOL TO SUPPORT SCHEDULING DECISIONS IN CONSTRUCTION FIRMS Yılmaz, Anıl; Dikmen Toker, İrem; Birgönül, Mustafa Talat; Department of Civil Engineering (2021-11) The construction industry still suffers from reaching critical objectives of projects like duration and budget. To deal with this situation researchers and practitioners realized the importance of knowledge management in t...
Investigation of the effects of uncertainties of inflow hydrograph and dam breach geometry on outflow hydrograph Gödek, Neslihan Pınar; Yanmaz, Ali Melih; Çalamak, Melih; Department of Civil Engineering (2021-11) Precise breach outflow hydrograph is crucial for the accurate determination of the flood damage and cost at the downstream region. Precise flood inundation modeling is based on the use of a realistic breach outflow hydrogr...
Numerical investigation of coherent structures forming around bridge piers sitting on an inclined surface Hesap, Emre; Köken, Mete; Department of Civil Engineering (2021-11) Coherent structures forming around the piers play an important role in the formation of scour hole. Detached Eddy Simulation is used in this study to investigate the three-dimensional coherent structures forming around bri...
BIM-based formwork and cladding quantity take-off using visual programing Çepni, Yaşar; Akçamete Güngör, Aslı; Department of Civil Engineering (2021-9-09) Material quantity take-off (QTO) is an indispensable work item in construction projects since it is essentially utilized for scheduling and cost calculation. Traditionally, quantities are calculated based on 2D drawings, w...
A laboratory study on the use of lime columns to improve expansive soils Özkan, İlyas; Çokça, Erdal; Department of Civil Engineering (2021-9-09) Expansive soils are well-known for their cyclic shrink-swell behavior due to seasonal moisture changes. These cyclic movements of expansive soils are due to physicochemical changes at the particle level that are dependent ...
Digital terrain model extraction from high-resolution point clouds by using a multi-resolution planarity-based approach Koçan, Yasin; Leloğlu, Uğur Murat; Department of Geodetic and Geographical Information Technologies (2021-9-09) Digital Elevation Model (DEM) is a mathematical representation of the elevation of the Earth’s surface. There are two types of DEM, namely Digital Surface Model (DSM) and Digital Terrain Model (DTM). DSM contains natural (...
SEISMIC PERFORMANCE COMPARISON OF BASE-ISOLATED HOSPITAL BUILDING WITH VARIOUS ISOLATOR MODELING APPROACHES Çabuk, Eser; Akyüz, Uğurhan; Department of Civil Engineering (2021-9-09) In Turkey, seismic base isolation have become mainly used passive earthquake control system especially among hospital structures after the amendment of Ministry of Health in 2014, regulating the design of hospitals in high...
Opportunities and challenges in using soil moisture from cosmic ray neutron sensing for rainfall-runoff modelling Duygu, Mustafa Berk; Akyürek, Sevda Zuhal; Department of Civil Engineering (2021-9-08) Retrieving or estimating soil moisture is one of the most important elements of hydrology, since most of the hydrological studies consider the absence (drought) or excessiveness (flood) of water stored in the soil. Water s...
Numerical modeling of dam breach in concrete gravity dams mosaddeghi, farshid; Köken, Mete; Aydın, İsmail; Department of Civil Engineering (2021-9-08) When a dam fails, a large amount of water is suddenly released that may create large flood waves capable of causing devastating impacts to downstream areas. This is even more important when the damage is caused by an earth...
Utilization of wet-handled and dry-handled coal bottom ashes in portland cement based composites Tirkeş, Sera; Akgül, Çağla; Department of Civil Engineering (2021-9-7) Coal bottom ash (BA) is a coarse, granular, incombustible by-product collected from the bottom of coal-burning furnaces. Traditionally, it has been handled by wet-handling systems (WHS) that use large amounts of water for ...
Computational modeling of self-assembly in deformable bodies Bilgin, Koçak; Göktepe, Serdar; Department of Civil Engineering (2021-9) Self-assembly is a process in which an irregular system transforms into a regular pattern or an organized structure through local interactions between the components of the material without any external influence. Therefor...
A BIM based assessment of the impact of envelope design and building surrounding on the tradeoff between energy efficiency, thermal comfort and visual comfort Uysal, Mehmet Turabi; Akçamete Güngör, Aslı; Department of Civil Engineering (2021-9) The problem of depletion and rapid consumption of natural resources has forced engineers to design houses that consume less energy with more sustainable materials.
