This paper illustrates the use of Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) technique to compute the bearingcapacity of shallow foundations and establish their failure mechanism. SPH is a numerical method based on aLagrangian formulation to solve partial differential equations by discretizing the computational domain with a setof particles that have field variables such as mass, and density. SPH is a meshless method and is not affected bythe particles’ arbitrariness due to its adaptive nature, and it can naturally handle problems that are caused by largedeformations. Non-associated Drucker-Prager model is implemented into the model to simulate the soil behavior.The computed values are then compared with PLAXIS 2D finite element results. Agreements of the results ofthese two methods show that SPH is potentially a promising method for geotechnical problems experiencing largedeformations and mesh distortions.

Natural convection flow of a nanofluid in an enclosure under an inclined uniform magnetic field Tezer, Münevver; Bozkaya, Canan (2016-01-01) In this study, the natural convection in a square enclosure filled with water-based aluminium oxide (Al2O3) under the influence of an externally applied inclined magnetic field is considered numerically. The flow is steady, two-dimensional and laminar; the nanoparticles and water are assumed to be in thermal equilibrium. The governing equations are solved in terms of stream function-vorticity-temperature using both the dual reciprocity boundary element method and the finite element method to see the influen...
SHALLOW IMPURITIES IN HETEROJUNCTIONS ELKAWNI, MI; Tomak, Mehmet (1992-02-01) The shallow impurity states in Si/SiO2 and GaAs/Ga1-xAlxAs heterojunctions are studied variationally using an improved Fang-Howard trial wave function originally proposed for the Si/SiO2 system.
Stabilizing subgrid FEM solution of the natural convection flow under high magnitude magnetic field on sinusoidal corrugated enclosure Aydın, S. H.; Tezer, Münevver (Informa UK Limited, 2019-7-7) This study deals with the stabilized finite element solution of the steady, natural convection flow in an enclosure under a magnetic field applied perpendicular to the sinusoidal corrugated vertical walls of the enclosure, in terms of primitive variables. Several vertical sinusoidal functions are selected for the comparison. A stabilized FEM scheme called SSM is proposed in order to obtain a stable solution for the high values of problem parameters with a cheap computational cost. Proposed numerical scheme ...
CONTEXT BASED SUPER RESOLUTION IMAGE RECONSTRUCTION Turgay, Emre; Akar, Gözde (2009-08-21) In this paper a context based super-resolution (SR) image reconstruction method is proposed. The proposed maximum a-posteriori (MAP) based estimator identifies local gradients and textures for selecting the optimal SR method for the region of interest. Texture segmentation and gradient map estimation are done prior to the reconstruction stage. Gradient direction is used for optimal noise reduction along the edges for non-textured regions. On the other hand, regularization term is cancelled for textured regi...
Intensity vector direction exploitation for exhaustive blind source separation of convolutive mixtures Günel Kılıç, Banu; Hacıhabiboğlu, Hüseyin (2009-04-19) This article presents a technique that uses the intensity vector direction exploitation (IVDE) method for exhaustive separation of convolutive mixtures. While only a four-element compact sensor array is used, multiple channels for all possible source directions are produced by exhaustive separation. Singular value decomposition (SVD) is then applied to determine the signal subspace and the directions of the local maxima of the signal energy. This information is then used to select the channels containing th...
