Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 13Damage Accumulation Modelling of Two Reinforced Concrete Buildings Under Seismic Sequences(Springer, 2023) Tönük, Gökçe; Tönük, Gökçe; Oyguç, Evrim; Uçak, Doruk; 02.04. Department of Civil Engineering; 02. Faculty of Engineering; 01. MEF UniversityThe extent of earthquake damage depends solely on the seismicity, site conditions and vulnerability of the building stock in a region. Hence, studies to assess the seismic behavior of building stocks with similar vulnerabilities are important to mitigate seismic risk in earthquake-prone regions. This study aims to simulate the seismic behavior of selected reinforced concrete (RC) school buildings by modelling damage accumulation under multiple earthquakes sequence. The observed data of two RC school buildings heavily damaged after the 2011 Van earthquake sequence in Turkey, namely, the Gedikbulak and Alakoy schools is used. Among these two school buildings, the Gedikbulak school building collapsed immediately after the main excitation, while the Alakoy school building withstood several seismic sequences, suffering heavy damages. In this study, three-dimensional numerical models that can consider the deterioration effects are developed and the capacities of the buildings were evaluated by conducting a force-based adaptive pushover procedure. Additionally, non-linear dynamic analyses were conducted using the concrete plastic damage model. Both degrading and conventional material models were used to examine the structural response under multiple ground motion sequences. The hysteretic behaviors of the studied buildings are presented. Consequently, analytical results are well correlated with the reconnaissance studies and neither of the considered structures are found to satisfy the design performance level.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Microzonation With Respect To Ground Shaking Intensity(CRC Press/Balkema, 2019) Tönük, Gökçe; Tönük, Gökçe; Kurtuluş, Aslı; Ansal, Atilla; 02.04. Department of Civil Engineering; 02. Faculty of Engineering; 01. MEF UniversitySeismic microzonation is conducted to assess the seismic hazard on the ground surface with respect to ground shaking intensity. A probabilistic seismic hazard study is conducted to define earthquake characteristics on the rock outcrop. A grid system is generated to divide the investigation area into cells according to geological and geotechnical data. Site characterizations are based on available information to define soil profiles for each cell with soil stratifications and shear wave velocities extending down to the engineering bedrock. Site-specific 1D site response analyses are carried out for all soil profiles, based on the engineering properties of encountered soil layers, selection and scaling of the sufficient number of input acceleration time histories compatible with the regional seismicity and earthquake source characteristics. The microzonation study carried out for Zeytinburnu town on the European side of Istanbul with respect to ground shaking intensity is presented. The importance of the selection of the microzonation parameters for assessing ground shaking intensity is discussed. © 2019 Associazione Geotecnica Italiana, Rome, Italy.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6Case Study on Seismic Behavior of Aseismically Designed Reinforced Concrete Frame Structures(Springer, 2017) Oyguc, Evrim; Tönük, Gökçe; Tönük, Gökçe; 02.04. Department of Civil Engineering; 02. Faculty of Engineering; 01. MEF UniversityIn this study, the seismic performances of two aseismically designed plan-irregular reinforced concrete frame (RCF) households damaged during the October 23, 2011 Van earthquake are assessed. Since no strong ground motion recordings from the main shock were available, first, strong ground motion parameters of the event are evaluated and then compatible with these parameters suits of real records are selected and scaled to match with the event's simulated acceleration spectrum to be used in the analytical investigations. The results of previous reconnaissance studies, in which one of the present authors was involved, are then discussed. Capacities of the considered RCF's are determined applying a 3D single-run adaptive pushover procedure that is capable of considering the effect of plan irregularities. The performance assessment procedure based on the current 2007 Turkish Earthquake Code is then applied to these investigated buildings. Additionally, nonlinear dynamic time history analyses are carried out using the previously selected time histories. The hysteretic behavior of the considered buildings is examined as the consequence of the conducted analyses and considering the different suits of selected ground motions, the seismic response of the buildings is evaluated in terms of interstorey drifts. None of the buildings are found to satisfy the expected performance level. Moreover, the numerical results are found to have good correlation with the field observation results.
