    An experimental study was conducted on seismically deficient RC corner connections with and without floor slab in order to examine the behavior under seismic action and to develop proper strengthening techniques. Four 2/3 ...
  • Gökgöz, Erdal. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2008., 2008.)
    Under seismic action, the most critical part of R/C structures, which were built in the United States before 1970, is beam-column joints. Common deficiencies of these joints could be summarized as; widely spaced column ...
  • Şahin, A. Ufuk. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2008., 2008.)
    The determination of the aquifer parameters with sufficient accuracy is an important issue in the application of the mathematical models which have been developed for the groundwater systems. Recently, Artificial Neural ...
  • İşbaşar, Hilmi Aydın. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2008., 2008.)
    Finite element program codes were generally developed in Fortran but during last decade developers started to seek better programming paradigms in order to handle complexity in finite element software. Since Java language ...
  • Kaya, Turgut. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2007., 2007.)
    This study is focused on presenting a literature review and evaluation of types and general concepts of all earth reinforcement structures, especially reinforced earth retaining walls with metallic strip reinforcements, ...
  • Töre, Erbil. (Thesis (M.S.)- Robert College. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 1965., 1965.)
  • Aslan, Veysel Zafer. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2007., 2007.)
    The Reinforced Earth theory was created by French H. Vidal in 1966 and has showed up a progressive development till today. With cost and time savings that the technique brings with, Reinforced Earth Retaining Structures ...
  • Yılmaz, Hamdi. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2007., 2007.)
    In case where weak soil take place under mat foundations of high, heavily loaded structures, foundation system is designed with socket piles which transfer their load through skin friction to a firm stratum located at a ...
  • Bul, Ebru. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2007., 2007.)
    With the increased use of pipelines for transporting water, gas, petroleum, and sewage, the importance of pipe is understood easily in life. As time goes on, pipe technology has been developing and present more facilities ...
  • İncircioğlu, Serdar. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2007., 2007.)
    The objective of this research is to modify the fabric of clay by mixing it with paper fibers in different forms. Fiber addition to clay is not a common procedure; however finite length fibers of tire buffings, polypropylene ...
  • Barhani, Edison. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2007., 2007.)
    The rapid growth of the transportation sector during the last decade in Turkey has created many problems particularly in Istanbul such as air pollution, energy consumption, and loss of urban ‘living space’. Different from ...
  • Yılmaz, Arif Kıvanç. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2007., 2007.)
    The aim of this study is to evaluate the loading capacity of open ended piles in cohesionless soils by using PLAXIS. The simulation program PLAXIS uses finite element method to calculate load capacity and solve the problem. ...
  • Ayhan, Volkan. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2007., 2007.)
    Using tire wastes as lightweight material in constructions is a good alternative to benefit them rather than disposing as waste. Thus, many economical, environmental and technical advantages are gained. To use tire wastes ...
