    The Comparison of Fragility Curves of Moment-Resisting and Braced Frames Used in Steel Structures Under Varying Wind Load
    (Turkish Chamber Civil Engineers, 2025-03-01) Ozalp, Abdulkadir; Gokdemir, Hande; Ciftci, Cihan
    In this study, the performance of two different steel structure types (moment-resisting frame and braced frame) under wind loading was compared by addressing the fragility curves of these structure types. To perform this comparison, the dimensions of the members of these structural systems were first determined. Then, nonlinear static pushover analyses were conducted to assess the performance levels of each frame type. After applying these analyses, time-history analyses were performed with 100 different wind loads for each varying equivalent mean wind speed. Afterwards, the probability of exceeding the predetermined structural performance limits of the structure types was determined using Monte Carlo simulation method. Finally, the results of the simulation method were used to adapt the maximum likelihood estimation method to obtain the fragility curves of the structures. To conclude, it has been revealed that the material cost of the structure doubles when diagonal elements are used, but the wind speed required for a 100% collapse probability to occur in the braced frame is twice as high compared to the moment-resisting frame.

    Strategic Sustainable Site Management in Higher Education Institutions
    (deomed Publ, Istanbul, 2016-12-01) Ayten, Asim Mustafa
    In retrospect, the role of scientific progress is of the utmost importance in the development and the current status of the universitites whose history is as old as the city life. The main determinants of the emergence of Enlightenment period have been the Reformation and the Renaissance movements in Europe. Thus, thoughts and ideas based on the mind instead of dogmas have made progress under the guidance of positivism and the city life has been indirectly affected from this development. The industrial revolution caused remodeling and changes in urban and spatial structure. Although educated and skilled labor force was not requested by the industry initially, that kind of force gained importance over time and the collaboration between industry and universities became inevitable. Until the years of 1940, Von Humboldt system, prevailing in Germany, changed and US system has become effective since 1945. During the years of 1960, universities became technology-based organizations and the institutions where scientific researches were conducted instead of the ones where only educational activities were carried out. Particularly, new settlements based on technology development regions attracted the attention. Within the order created by this relationship, different kinds of universities, research centers and spatial constructions were emerged either inside or outside the cities. In parallel with the growth of the cities, university buildings moved to the campuses outside the cities in accordance with the changing needs and new applications were made inside the cities and over the vast areas with different spatial typologies. In our study, campus site managements were examined in terms of environmental factors, logistics, traffic management, transportation and other criteria (population size, field size, space per person and etc.), sampled with a survey carried out on 22 universities and made an evaluation based on the responses taken by 17 universities. This study has shown that our universities have not got a large part of the criteria required to become a 3rd generation university. So as to compete with the other universities in the World, an approach with corresponding social, economic, and spatial dimensions which leaves an impression on the city, region, country and the whole World should be put into practice in the field of higher education.

    Estimating the Power Draw of Grizzly Feeders Used in Crushing-Screening Plants Through Soft Computing Algorithms
    (Konya Teknik Univ, 2024-01-02) Koken, Ekin
    In this study, the power draw (P) of several grizzly feeders used in the Turkish Mining Industry (TMI) is investigated by considering the classification and regression tree (CART), random forest (RF) and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) algorithms. For this purpose, a comprehensive field survey is performed to collect quantitative data, including power draw (P) of some grizzly feeders and their working conditions such as feeder width (W), feeder length (L), feeder capacity (Q), and characteristic feed size (F80). 80 ). Before applying the soft computing methodologies, correlation analyses are performed between the input parameters and the output (P). According to these analyses, it is found that W and L are highly associated with P. On the other hand, Q is moderately correlated with P. Consequently, numerous soft computing models were run to estimate the P of the grizzly feeders. Soft computing analysis results demonstrate no superiority between the performances of RF and CART models. The RF analysis results indicate that the W is necessary for evaluating P for grizzly feeders. On the other hand, the ANFIS-based predictive model is found to be the best tool to estimate varying P values, and it satisfies promising results with a correlation of determination value (R2) of 0.97. It is believed that the findings obtained from the present study can guide relevant engineers in selecting the proper motors propelling grizzly feeders.
