Investigation of gas seepages in Thessaloniki mud volcano in the Mediterranean Sea MEREY, ŞÜKRÜ; Longinos, Sotirios Nik (2018-09-01) Gas seepages are commonly observed in marine environment. Especially, gas seepages due to anthropogenic gas hydrate dissociation are big concerns recently. In the Eastern Mediterranean Sea, Thessaloniki mud volcano was detected. Gas hydrate stability conditions in this mud volcano is very fragile. For this reason, in this study, gas seepages were predicted by using HydrateResSim at different seafloor temperature increments varying from 1 to 5 degrees C and different sediment permeability values varying from...
Investigation of ground vibrations induced by production blasting at Uşak Kışladağ gold mine Çakmak, Bezmi Barış; Bilgin, Hasan Aydın; Department of Mining Engineering (2007) Ground vibrations from blasting are acoustic waves that propagate through the earth. They are also termed seismic waves because their propagation characteristics are similar to the ground motions produced by earthquakes. Amplitude of ground vibration induced by blasting may vary significantly at or around an open pit mine depending on parameters such as the maximum amount of explosive detonating at a time interval and the physical distance between the shot and the location of concern, whereas the frequency ...
Investigation of the snow-cover dynamics in the Upper Euphrates Basin of Turkey using remotely sensed snow-cover products and hydrometeorological data Akyürek, Sevda Zuhal; Beser, Ozgur (2011-11-15) The Euphrates and Tigris rivers serve as the most important water resources in the Middle East. Precipitation in this region falls mostly in the form of snow over the higher elevations of the Euphrates Basin and remains on the ground for nearly half of the year. This snow-covered area (SCA) is a key element of the hydrological cycle, and monitoring the SCA is crucial for making accurate forecasts of snowmelt discharge, especially for energy production, flood control, irrigation, and reservoir-operation opti...
INVESTIGATION OF DAMAGE IN GFRP TAPERED COMPOSITE LAMINATES Hosseinpour Dashatan, Saeid; Arıkan, Mehmet Ali Sahir; Parnas, Kemal Levend; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2021-8-13) In some applications of composite laminates, thickness variation is necessary to fulfill specific design requirements. One way of accomplishing the intentional thickness variation in composite structures is terminating some plies within a layup. Introducing ply drop-offs causes geometrical and material discontinuities, which lead to high localized stresses around drop-off locations. Despite all the progress made in damage analyses of tapered composite laminates, estimating their load-carrying capacity and s...
Investigation of fracture toughness on flattened Brazilian disc type molded shotcrete specimens Yoncacı, Selin; Tutluoğlu, Levend; Department of Mining Engineering (2019) Monitoring behavior of cracks generated by various reasons in shotcrete/concrete is of crucial importance for the stability of structures in various industries. Despite the need of understanding the crack initiation and propagation mechanisms profoundly, fracture mechanics related studies for shotcrete are limited so far. This topic has not attracted the attention it deserves in structural applications such as tunneling. Beam type specimen geometries are commonly used in fracture mechanics testing of shotcr...
