Numerical simulation of flood wave propagation in two-dimensions in densely populated urban areas due to dam break
(Springer, 2016-12-01)
Dams are important structures having many functions such as water supply, flood control, hydroelectric power and recreation. Although dam break failures are very rare events, dams can fail with little warning and the damage ...
Reverse flood routing in natural channels using genetic algorithm
(Springer, 2015-09-13)
Establishing a clear overview of data discharge availability for water balance modelling in basins is a priority in Europe, and in the particular in the framework of the system of Economic and Environmental Accounts for ...
Numerical modeling of transport processes at hillslope scale accounting for local physical features
(Nova Science Publishers, 2011-01-01)
Hillslope is the basic unit of a watershed. Typical hillslopes may have a size of 1000 m long and 500 m wide. For watershed modeling, it is essential to accurately describe the illslope-scale processes of flow, erosion and ...
Prediction of suspended sediment concentration from water quality variables
(Springer, 2014-04)
This study investigates use of water quality (WQ) variables, namely total chromium concentration, total iron concentration, and turbidity for predicting suspended sediment concentration (SSC). For this purpose, the artificial ...
Supervised intelligent committee machine method for hydraulic conductivity estimation
(Springer, 2014-03)
Hydraulic conductivity is the essential parameter for groundwater modeling and management. Yet estimation of hydraulic conductivity in a heterogeneous aquifer is expensive and time consuming. In this study; artificial ...
Strength prediction of high-strength concrete by fuzzy logic and artificial neural networks
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014-11-01)
High-strength concretes (HSC) were prepared with five different binder contents, each of which had several silica fume (SF) ratios (0-15%). The compressive strength was determined at 3, 7, and 28 days, resulting in a total ...
Transport capacity models for unsteady and non-equilibrium sediment transport in alluvial channels
(Elsevier, 2012-08)
This study investigates transport capacity models based on different dominant variables-shear stress, stream power, unit stream power, flow discharge, flow velocity, and energy slope - in a model of unsteady and non-equilibrium ...
Distorted physical model to study sudden partial dam break flows in an urban area
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014-11)
A distorted physical model, based on Ürkmez Dam in Izmir, Turkey, was built to study sudden partial dam break flows. The distorted model had a horizontal scale of 1/150 and a vertical scale of 1/30, containing dam reservoir, ...
Coupling soil moisture and precipitation observations for predicting hourly runoff at small catchment scale
(Elsevier, 2014-03)
The importance of soil moisture is recognized in rainfall-runoff processes. This study quantitatively investigates the use of soil moisture measured at 10, 20, and 40cm soil depths along with rainfall in predicting runoff. ...
Ampirik yöntemlerle Gediz Nehri için askıda katı madde yükü tahmini
(TMMOB İnşaat Mühendisleri Odası, 2011-04)
It is essential to predict suspended sediment load for understanding river morphology, design of dams, water supply problems, management of reservoirs and determination of pollution levels in rivers. The suspended sediment ...
