Evaluation of rock engineering properties is a significant phenomenon for mining, civil and geotechnical engineering disciplines. Uniaxial compressive strength is one of the most important engineering parameters and it is used to characterize rocks from the …

In this study, the development of the compressive strength obtained by heat-activation of the mortar produced with Fclass fly ash and sodium meta-silicate was investigated. In the study, mortar samples were produced using F class fly ash, standard Rilem sand a…

Complexity in the behavior of asphalt binders are further escalated with geopolymer (fly ash and the alkali liquid) modification thus, making it difficult to predict the performance of the binder accurately. This study employs artificial neural network model…

In this study, the effects nano-SiO2 and nano-Al2O3 on cement mortars were experimentally studied. The percentage of nano-powders were used as 1%, 3% and 5% into the material. Different types of analysis were used to nano-powder’s impact on the cement mortars.…

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 can be obtained depend…

Friction stir spot welding (FSSW) method is prone to automation. In this way, by integrating the robot and automation systems have been easily developed. Thanks to the method, the effective overlapping joints can be obtained a short processing time. In the stu…
