    Hydro-Elastic Analysis of Standing Submerged Structures Under Seismic Excitations With SPH-FEM Approach
    (Latin Amer J Solids Structures, 2020) Demir, Abdullah
    In this paper, a fully coupled fluid structure interaction (FSI) method is used to investigate the hydro-elastic response of a fully submerged standing structure under seismic excitations. Two different domains (solid and fluid) are modelled by mesh based and meshless methods, respectively. Solid domain is modeled by finite element method (FEM) and fluid domain is modeled by smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH). Coupling between FEM and SPH is implemented via contact mechanics, and this method differs from others in the way of coupling mechanism. Invading SPH particles are solved together with finite elements by using contact mechanics, then, a fully coupled method is achieved. In the scope of this research, different seismic excitations are applied to a rectangular tank. Half of the tank is filled with water and a submerged rubber plate is attached to its mid bottom. Thus, two-dimensional motion of rubber plate and water is investigated experimentally and simulated numerically. [GRAPHICS] .

    Evaluation of the Performance of Geotextiles Using Finite Element Analysis in the Settlement Results: A Case Study in Kayseri, Turkey
    (Korean Geosynthetics Society, 2018) Yalçın, Hakan; Akin, Muge K.; Çabalar, Ali Firat
    Geotextiles are successfully designated for the reinforcement of soils to solve certain settlement as well as bearing capacity problems in difficult ground conditions. Furthermore, geotextiles are used for the stability of man-made slopes. In this study, the performance of geotextiles for soil improvement is evaluated by considering various geotextile types that have different axial stiffness values. The stiffness values are compared using a finite element method (FEM) based software PLAXIS 2D. As case study, Kayseri Organized Industrial Site in Turkey was chosen for the comparison of these geotextiles for a specific soil profile during analyses. Besides, the FEM based approach is also considered for the settlement, axial force and the effective stress changes during the application of geotextiles. The selected geotextiles are also correlated using scanning electron microscope (SEM) analyses. The results indicated that the axial stiffness (EA) can be considered with the effect on the possible soil settlement and axial force values. The settlement values reduced with increase in stiffness of reinforcement. © 2021 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
