Non-linear 2-D FE analysis for the assessment of isolation performance of wave impeding barrier in reduction of railway-induced surface waves

Çelebi, Erkan; Göktepe, Fatih (ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2012)

The establishment of wave impeding barriers (WIBs) beneath the railway track or below the protected residential buildings resting on soft soil can be commonly used to reduce the ground borne vibrations caused by high-speed ...
The influence of coarse aggregate type on mechanical properties of fly ash additive self-compacting concrete

Uysal, Mücteba (ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2012)

This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation carried out to evaluate the effectiveness of various types of coarse aggregates on fresh and hardened properties of self-compacting concrete (SCC). For this ...
Use of zeolite, coal bottom ash and fly ash as replacement materials in cement production

Yılmaz, Kemalettin; Sümer, Mensur (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2004)

In this research, the effects of zeolite, coal bottom ash and fly ash as Portland cement replacement materials on the properties of cement are investigated through three different combinations of tests. These materials are ...
STRENGTHENING OF HEAT TREATED SLENDER STEEL PLATES WITH GLASS FIBER REINFORCED POLYMERS (GFRP)

Aktaş, Muharrem; Aydın, Emine (GAZI UNIV, FAC ENGINEERING ARCHITECTURE, 2012)

Steel structural elements face local buckling problems under both bending and axial compressive loads. It is possible to rectify this buckled element by applying heat treatment method instead of replacing it with a new ...
The effect of pre-setting pressure applied flexural strength and fracture toughness of reactive powder concrete during the setting phase

İpek, Metin; Yılmaz, Kemalettin; Uysal, Mücteba; İpek, Mediha (ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2012)

In this study, the effect of pre-setting pressure on reactive powder concrete (RPC) was examined. The fresh (plastic) concrete samples were filled in a specified beam mould and six different pre-setting pressure values ...
Self-compacting concrete incorporating filler additives: Performance at high temperatures

Uysal, Mücteba; Uysal, Mehmet (ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2012)
