    Düzgün, Emre. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University.Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, 2009., 2009.)
    Earthquake resistant design of structural walls involves inhibiting brittle shear failure that would develop with the formation of plastic hinge at the base of the walls. During seismic action, recent studies demonstrate ...
  • Factors affecting site response analysis 
    Tönük, Gökçe. (Thesis (Ph.D.)-Bogazici University. Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, 2009., 2009.)
    The objective of a site response analysis is to estimate free-field ground shaking characteristics during an earthquake for a specific hazard level and set of site conditions. The mandatory components for a site response ...
  • Nonlinear fluid-structure interaction for multi-dimensional seismic analyses of liquid storage tanks 
    Özdemir, Zühal. (Thesis (Ph.D.)-Bogazici University.Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, 2009., 2009.)
    Real nonlinear behavior of liquid storage tanks includes many complexities which are caused by material yielding, large amplitude free-surface sloshing, non-linear fluid structure interaction, high deformations of tank ...
  • Spatial variation of strong ground motion 
    Harmandar, Ebru. (Thesis (Ph.D.)-Bogazici University.Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, 2009., 2009.)
    Earthquake ground accelerograms measured at different locations along a large engineered structure could be significantly different. This has led to considerable research in the last decade on the modeling of the spatially ...
  • Correlations between ground motion intensity measures and structural response parameters through nonlinear dynamic analyses 
    Hancılar, Ufuk. (Thesis (Ph.D.)-Bogazici University.Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, 2009., 2009.)
  • Accuracy of GPS precise point positioning (PPP) 
    Tekiç, Simge. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, 2009., 2009.)
    We tried to show how the accuracy of GPS varies with respect to observing session duration by using the method of GIPSY precise point positioning (PPP), and how the site’s coordinates latitude, longitude and ellipsoidal ...
  • A Unified approach in GPS accuracy determination studies 
    Öztürk, Didem. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, 2009., 2009.)
    By the time GPS technology started to be used in Geodesy, it is much easier to reach the desired precision of point positioning. It is significantly a useful technique, thus one can easily predict the accuracy of GPS before ...
