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 ...
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, ...
Significance of rent attributes in prediction of earthquake damage in Adapazari, Turkey
(Institute of Computer Science, 2014-12)
This paper analyses rent-based determinants of earthquake damage from an urban planning perspective with the data gathered from Adapazari, Turkey, after the disaster in 1999 Eastern Marmara Earthquake (EME). The study ...
Describing the karst evolution by the exploitation of hydrologic time-series data
(Springer, 2015-07-30)
The importance of the groundwater management of karst aquifers relatively to their complexity requires the knowledge of the subsurface flow and storage behavior. In this study, a methodological approach based on the ...
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 ...
Classifications for planimetric efficiency of nursing unit floors
(Middle East Technical University, 2012)
This trial study was conducted to determine classifications for planimetric design efficiency of sample public hospitals in Turkey by developing a fuzzy logic algorithm. Utilizing primary areas and circulation areas from ...
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 ...
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 ...
Use of Principal component analysis in conjunction with soft computing methods for investigating total sediment load transferability from laboratory to field scale
(IWA Publishing, 2014)
This study quantitatively investigates the generalization from laboratory scale to field scale using the soft computing (expert) and the empirical methods. Principal component analysis is utilized to form the input vector ...
