Artificial neural networks for estimating daily total suspended sediment in natural streams
(IWA Publishing, 2006)
Estimates of sediment loads in natural streams are required for a wide spectrum of water resources engineering problems from optimal reservoir design to water quality in lakes. Suspended sediment constitutes 75-95% of the ...
Kinematic wave model of bed profiles in alluvial channels
(American Geophysical Union, 2006-06)
A mathematical model, based on the kinematic wave (KW) theory, is developed for describing the evolution and movement of bed profiles in alluvial channels. The model employs a functional relation between sediment transport ...
Modern optimization methods in water resources planning, engineering and management
(Springer, 2017-08)
Mathematical (analytical, numerical and optimization) models are employed in many disciplines including the water resources planning, engineering and management. These models can vary from a simple black-box model to a ...
Experimental and modeling study of strength of high strength concrete containing binary and ternary binders
(STOWARZYSZENIE PRODUCENTOW CEMENTU, 2011)
Silica fume (SF), fl y ash (FA) and ground granulated blastfurnace slag (S) are among the most widely utilized mineral additions for normal strength concrete (NSC) and high strength concrete (HSC).
High Reactivity Metakaolin ...
Modeling water stress effect on soil salinity
(Springer, 2011)
As it is widely known the earth is experiencing a climate change. The primary effect of this change is the increase trend in global temperature. This, in turn, results in increased number of events in flooding, and drought ...
Experimental and numerical investigation of bed-load transport under unsteady flows
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2011-11)
The dynamic behavior of bed-load sediment transport under unsteady flow conditions is experimentally and numerically investigated. A series of experiments are conducted in a rectangular flume (18 m in length, 0.80 m in ...
Groundwater contamination and its effect on health in Turkey
(Springer, 2011-12)
The sources of groundwater pollution in Turkey are identified, and pathways of contaminants to groundwater are first described. Then, the effects of groundwater quality on health in Turkey are evaluated. In general, sources ...
Empirical sediment transport models based on indoor rainfall simulator and erosion flume experimental data
(Wiley, 2017-05)
Land degradation processes start with accelerated runoff and sediment delivery. In this study, rainfall-runoff induced sediment transport is investigated using data from an indoor laboratory experimental setup consisting ...
Two-dimensional numerical modeling of flood wave propagation in an urban area due to Ürkmez dam-break, İzmir, Turkey
(Springer, 2016-04-01)
This study investigated flood inundation in an urban area due to a possible failure of Ürkmez Dam in İzmir, Turkey. The estimation of flood hydrograph upon partial failure of the dam and routing of the flood hydrograph ...
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 ...
