Investigating a suitable empirical model and performing regional analysis for the suspended sediment load prediction in major rivers of the Aegean Region, Turkey
(Springer, 2017-02)
This study investigates the appropriateness of four major empirical methods [Lane and Kalinske, Einstein, Brooks, Chang—Simons—Richardson] for predicting suspended sediment loads (SSLs) in three major rivers in the Aegean ...
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 ...
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 ...
Principle component analysis in conjuction with data driven methods for sediment load prediction
(Springer, 2013-05)
This study investigates sediment load prediction and generalization from laboratory scale to field scale using principle component analysis (PCA) in conjunction with data driven methods of artificial neural networks (ANNs) ...
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 ...
Analysis and assessment of hydrochemical characteristics of Maragheh-Bonab Plain aquifer, Northwest of Iran
(Springer, 2017-02)
The present study aims at assessing the hydrochemistry of the groundwater system of the Maragheh-Bonab Plain located in the East Azarbaijan Province, northwest of Iran. The groundwater is used mainly for drinking, agriculture ...
Estimation of mechanical properties of limestone using regression analyses and ANN
(Fundacja Cement Wapno Beton, 2012)
Estimation of mechanical properties of rocks is important for researchers and field engineers working in cement and concrete industry. Limestone is used in cement production. In this study, Schmidt hammer, ultrasonic pulse ...
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 ...
Two-dimensional finite elements model for selenium transport in saturated and unsaturated zones
(Springer, 2010-10)
A two-dimensional finite element model was developed to simulate species of selenium transport in two dimensions in both saturated and unsaturated soil zones. The model considers water, selenate, selenite, and selenomethionine ...
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 ...
