Capturing knowledge in construction projects: Knowledge platform for contractors
(Asce-Amer Soc Civil Engineers, 2008)
Managing knowledge effectively is critical to the survival and advance of a company, especially in project-based industries such as construction. However, capturing knowledge in construction projects is a tedious task, as ...
Electricity production opportunities from multipurpose dams (case study)
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2007)
The hydropower is the leading source of renewable energy. It provides more than 97% of all electricity generated by renewable sources. The main advantage of hydro systems is elimination of the cost of fuel. Hydropower on ...
Turkey's water resources and hydropower potential
(Sage Publications Inc, 2005)
The aim of this paper is to investigate water resources in Turkey. Annual rainfall varies from 220 torn to 2500 mm with an average of 643 mm, which means total volume of 501 km(3) and average annual potential of surface ...
Sepiolite as an alternative liner material in municipal solid waste landfills
(Asce-Amer Soc Civil Engineers, 2008)
Compacted clay has traditionally been used as a lining material in municipal solid waste landfills. However, natural clays may not always provide good contaminant sorption properties. One alternative material that is ...
Accumulated strain prediction of polypropylene modified marshall specimens in repeated creep test using artificial neural networks
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2009)
This study presents an application of artificial neural networks (ANN) for the prediction of repeated creep test results for polypropylene (PP) modified asphalt mixtures. Polypropylene fibers are used to modify the bituminous ...
Repeated Creep Behavior of Polypropylene Fiber-Reinforced Bituminous Mixtures
(Asce-Amer Soc Civil Engineers, 2009)
In recent years, research has been devoted to the control of permanent deformations in flexible pavements. In order to prevent rutting, fatigue, and low-temperature cracking, different types of polymer modifiers have been ...
Mechanical evaluation of asphalt-aggregate mixtures prepared with fly ash as a filler replacement
(Natl Research Council Canada-N R C Research Press, 2008)
The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of fly ash as a filler replacement on the mechanical properties of asphalt-aggregate mixtures. Utilization of fly ash, which is the by-product of coal-fired power ...
The lower employment of women in Turkish construction sector
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2004)
More than half of the population of Turkey is women. However, although there is an increase in the number of population, they have still been under-represented in the labour force. The conceptual and empirical elements ...
Mapping field surface soil moisture for hydrological modeling
(Springer, 2007)
Soil moisture is a major control variable on hydrological processes both at the storm event scale and in the long term. The aggregate effect on the mean water balance over an area can be quantified successfully using ...
The effect of polypropylene fibers on asphalt performance
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2008)
Polypropylene fibers are extensively used in civil engineering applications for many years. These fibers are used in concrete as a three-dimensional secondary reinforcement. Due to adhesion between polypropylene fibers and ...
