Metal foams are light cellular materials that are a natural inspiration. Wood, bone and sea sponges are some wellknown examples of such structures. Metallic foams offer excellent mechanical response combination with lightness, good thermal …

Deneyim, tarih boyunca birçok düşünür tarafından farklı açılardan değerlendirilerek herhangi bir kavram olmanın ötesinde bilgi edinmenin bir kaynağı olarak görülmüş, bilginin kendisi olarak ele alınmıştır. Dolayısıyla mekânın tanımlanmasınd…

İnternette yaygın veri kullanımı ve kapasitesi her geçen gün hızla artmaktadır. Bu nedenle, bu verilerin aktarımı veya iletimi sırasında veri güvenliği önem arz etmektedir. Dolayısıyla, birçok veri şifreleme algoritmaları kullanılmaktadır. …

Nowadays, as the population increase, various construction projects are made on soils which engineering properties are not suitable. Many stabilization methods are used in order to prevent deformations and loss of bearing capacity on such s…

As widely known, construction on soft soils is generally problematic since the engineering properties of soft soils generally cannot meet the conditions required. Settlement, bearing capacity and seismic performance of the overlying structu…

Plasticity index is one of the most important parameters affecting the behavior of fine-grained soils under monotonic and dynamic loads. Besides, various correlations between plasticity index and strength properties of fine grained soils ca…

Various deteriorations primarily rutting occurs in hot mix asphalt under conditions of traffic, climate and environmental in length of time. To increase the resistance of mixtures and thus delaying these deteriorations, the various additive…

Bitumen polymer modification has a long history. However, most of the polymers currently used as additive in bitumen are not economically attractive. Thus, employing recycled materials in flexible highway instead of virgin ones has become…

The major part of freight transportation in Turkey is conducted by highway, the increase in the number of trucks and other heavy vehicles, as well as legislations allowing an increase in axle load that lead to deterioration such as rutting …

The continuity of life and the development of civilization are directly related to the correct and careful use of resources in the world. The 19th and 20th centuries are the centuries which involve greatest changes in the history of mankind…

Open channel flow is defined as fluid flow with a free surface open to the atmosphere. One of the main sources of resistance in open channel flow is the roughness of channel bed. The roughness of channel base and side walls must be consider…

Energy dissipaters used in open channels are devices designed to reduce the flow velocity and allow water to pass downstream without harming water structures and environment. In this study the effect of energy dissipaters on energy loss is …

Infill walls in reinforced concrete buildings produce a strong effect on the strength and deformation capacity of the buildings. In practice, a partial or full absence of infill walls at the first stories may become one of the reasons for v…

Increasing number of motor vehicles together with economic development brings serious air pollution problems. Especially, Particle Matter emissions from Internal Combustion Engines are difficult to control and highly dangerous for human hea…

The mobile processors with the increasing computational capabilities and software supports for the devices equipped by them have attracted the researchers’ attention to check whether they can be used for solving complex problems or not. In …

Superhydrophobic surfaces and materials received great attention of scientists and engineers due to their unwetting, self cleaning and antimicrobial properties. Hydrophobic surfaces are defined as having sessile water drop contact angle gre…

Diesel engines have been preferable engines for heavy, medium and light duty vehicle applications due to their superior performance and fuel economy. However, concerns with their emissions, which are highly toxic air pollutants, put some li…

Many well-known material structures, such as metals, ceramics or polymers, cannot meet all the technological demands. For this reason, there is ongoing research into new materials with advanced features. A composite material is consisting o…

In this study, in an effort to develop polymer matrix composite materials, especially to be employed as workbench and kitchen bench usage, powdered waste porcelain was used as a filler to form satisfactory mechanical properties together wit…

The study presents the tribological behavior of epoxy matrix composites containing two different fillers. Hybrid composites were produced with casting method. The composites contains fillers with different particle sizes (<90µm and in the r…
