Rutting Analysis of 100 mm Diameter Polypropylene Modified Asphalt Specimens Using Gyratory and Marshall Compactors
(University Fed Sao Carlos, Dept Engenharia Materials, 2013)
Compaction technique used in Marshall design does not model the process of actual rolling procedures on site exactly. Carrying out laboratory compaction of dense bituminous mixtures with Superpave gyratory compactors is a ...
Akarsu Debi Ölçümlerinde Eksik Verilerin Tamamlanması: Zap Suyu Havzası Örneği
(2015)
Su kaynaklarının havza bazındaki ihtiyaçlara göre planlanması için havza su potansiyelinin çok iyi analiz edilmesi gerekmektedir. Bu analizlerin doğru ve güvenilir olması için de havzaya ait meteorolojik ve akım gözlem ...
Accounting for the role of turbulent flow on particle dislodgement via a coupled quadrant analysis of velocity and pressure sequences
(Elsevier Sci LTD, 2017)
Recent studies have demonstrated the importance of duration, in addition to magnitude, of energetic turbulent events on particle dislodgement under threshold of motion conditions. It is therefore proposed here that the use ...
Rutting Prediction of Asphalt Mixtures Modified by Polypropylene Fibers via Repeated Creep Testing by Utilising Genetic Programming
(University Fed Sao Carlos, Dept Engenharia Materials, 2013)
A novel application of genetic programming (GP) for modelling and presenting closed form solutions to the rutting prediction for polypropylene (PP) modified asphalt mixtures is investigated. Various PP fibers have been ...
Computer-aided decision-making in construction project development
(Vilnius Gediminas Tech University, 2015)
One of the most difficult problems in construction is taking objective decisions. A decision-making process is very complicated and time consuming (due to the complex nature of construction projects). Many experts with ...
Short Term Optimal Operation of Water Supply Reservoir under Flood Control Stress using Model Predictive Control
(Springer, 2018)
Reservoir operations require enhanced operating procedures for water systems under stress attributed to growing water demand and consequences of changing hydro-climatic conditions. This study focuses on the management of ...
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 ...
Optimal polypropylene fiber amount determination by using gyratory compaction, static creep and Marshall stability and flow analyses
(Elsevier Sci LTD, 2013)
Utilizing gyratory compaction technique for the preparation of asphalt specimens with 100 mm diameter moulds is an effective and realistic way of pavement laboratory testing. In fact, Marshall compaction is not a suitable ...
Strengthening of substandard reinforced concrete beam-column joints by external post-tension rods
(Elsevier Sci LTD, 2016)
The efficiency of the proposed strengthening method using externally applied post-tension rods in reinforced concrete external beam-column joints, which do not comply with any code requirements, is investigated. Five ...
Geoenvironmental behavior of foundry sand amended mixtures for highway subbases
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2006)
The high cost of landfilling and the potential uses of waste foundry sands have prompted research into their beneficial reuse. Roadways have a high potential for large volume usage of the foundry sands. A laboratory testing ...
