Assessment of liquefaction susceptibility of Adapazari City after 17th August, 1999 Marmara earthquake

Fırat, Seyhan; Arman, Hasan; Kutanis, Mustafa (ACADEMIC JOURNALS, 2009)

The August 17, 1999 Marmara (Turkey) earthquake of magnitude (M-w = 7.4) struck the Marmara and Sakarya provinces in north-western part of Turkey. The earthquake caused substantial casualties and severe damages to structures. ...
Design of a short tensile coupon for fiber reinforced plastic using artificial neural networks

Sarıbıyık, Mehmet; Çağlar, Naci; Fırat, Seyhan (WALTER DE GRUYTER GMBH, 2005)

The measurement of the mechanical properties of Fibre Reinforced Plastic (FRP) material is necessary for numerical structural analysis and design. The mechanical properties of the FRP materials may be determined by specific ...

Lateral load estimation from visco-plastic mud-flow around cylindrical row of piles

Fırat, Seyhan; Sarıbıyık, Mehmet; Çelebi, Erkan (ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2006)

In this paper, the influence of slow and creeping flow of mud/slurry is modelled as a visco-plastic fluid around cylindrical row of piles. The study is carried out theoretically using principles of applied fluid mechanics. ...
Lecture Notes in Civil Engineering

İstegün, Berna; Çelebi, Erkan; Fırat, Seyhan; J Kinuthia; A Abu-Tair (SPRINGER INTERNATIONAL PUBLISHING AG, 2018)

This research primarily aims to investigate experimentally the mechanical behavior and the crack pattern of the perforated brick block masonry specimens under shear stresses before and after reinforcing procedure with ...
Lecture Notes in Civil Engineering

Çelebi, Erkan; Fırat, Seyhan; J Kinuthia; A Abu-Tair (SPRINGER INTERNATIONAL PUBLISHING AG, 2018)

The goal of this study is to deal with the modelling and calculation of the ground-borne vibrations and the effect of the wave propagation on foundation response with emphasis on vibration screening systems. Herein, ANSYS ...
Soil and foundation stability improvement by stone column: A case study in Adapazari city, Turkey

Arman, Hasan; Fırat, Seyhan; Vural, İsa; Gündüz, Zeki (ACADEMIC JOURNALS, 2009)

Adapazari city is located on a very deep alluvial deposit and in a seismically active region. Due to the catastrophic earthquakes, the region had painful experiences in the past. The latest severe earthquake, called Marmara ...
The effectiveness of wave barriers on the dynamic stiffness coefficients of foundations using boundary element method

Çelebi, Erkan; Fırat, Seyhan; Çankaya, İlyas (ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2006)

A comprehensive numerical investigation has been carried out to indicate the influence of wave barriers on the complex dynamic stiffness coefficients of the surface supported foundations under dynamic loads. In the considered ...
The evaluation of impedance functions in the analysis of foundations vibrations using boundary element method

Çelebi, Erkan; Fırat, Seyhan; Çankaya, İlyas (ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2006)

The basic step in the substructure approach based on discretization of the soil medium for the soil-structure interaction problems is to determine the impedance functions which are defined as the complex dynamic-stiffness ...
Utilization of marble dust, fly ash and waste sand (Silt-Quartz) in road subbase filling materials

Fırat, Seyhan; Sümer, Mensur (KOREAN SOCIETY OF CIVIL ENGINEERS-KSCE, 2012)

Large volumes of earthen materials are used in construction each year in Turkey and elsewhere. The wastes generated from these materials can be utilised in various applications including road subbase filling materials. In ...
