    Frame Finite Element Model for Nonlinear and Vibration Analysis of Steel Structures With Beam-Column and Column-Base Semi-Rigid Connections
    (Gazi Univ, Fac Engineering Architecture, 2022) Saritas, Afsin; Ozel, Halil Firat
    In this paper, a shear deformable force-based frame finite element with semi-rigid connections is derived for nonlinear analysis of steel structures. Distributed plasticity approach is defined along element length and section depth, and linear or non-linear semi-rigid connection behavior can be specified anywhere along elements without the necessity to define additional nodes and to increase the degrees of freedom of the structural system. To perform vibration analyses with similar accuracy, force-based consistent mass matrix is used considering semi-rigidity in connections and an appropriate shear correction coefficient for I-sections. The element formulation is presented in 2 dimensions to simplify the formulation, and numerical validation and comparison studies are carried out on complex and irregular structures in 2-D and 3-D. In models with semi-rigid connections, the effect of nonlinear behavior on the structural system has been studied in both beam-column and column-bases. In the presented examples, it was possible to push structures higher than the existing displacements, and it was revealed that the nonlinear behavior in the column-base connections could create much more critical results for the structural systems with P-Delta effects. In addition, high-level accuracy results were obtained when performing vibration analyses with the application of force-based consistent mass matrix.

    Occurrence of a Swirling Vortex Without an Intake
    (Gazi Univ, 2021) Yildirim, Nevzat; Tastan, Kerem
    In this study, mechanisms that cause the occurrence of a swirling vortex without an intake are explained. There are more than one different reasons which may cause the occurrence of an air-core vortex or a swirling-vortex flow filament within an ambient fluid. An air-core vortex or a swirling vortex flow filament can also occur in an ambient fluid media without an intake provided that the coaxial subsurface depressions and thereby the imaginary subsurface spherical sink surface sectors are hydraulically developed by any means (such as rotation of the fluid mass of spherical sector-form, impinging or penetrating jet flow, continuously entering solid body or string etc.). Although studies related to occurrence of a swirling vortex in case of an intake can be found in available literature, there are currently no studies which explains the occurrence mechanisms of a swirling vortex without an intake in detail. In this study, it is showed that the causes for the occurrence of the air-core vortex or the swirling vortex filament can be different but the main mechanism of development of the air-core vortex or the swirling vortex filament is identical for all cases.

    Effect of Downstream Expansion of a Long-Throated Flume on Flow Properties
    (Gazi Univ, 2021) Hatipoglu, Murat; Gogus, Mustafa; Ucar, Muhammed
    Long throated flumes are widely used flow measurement devices that not requiring site-specific level to flow curves and therefore laboratory experiments. In this study, downstream expansion effect of the long throated flumes with rectangular cross section were analysed for the dimensionless parameters derived from Buckingham's pi theorem and some other known hydraulic quantities such as discharge coefficient, approach velocity coefficient, submergence ratio of the flow etc. Therefore, five downstream transitions with different expansion angles were tested. In each test, the critical depth y(c), the flow head at the depth measurement section h(1), minimum required energy dissipater length L-t and the head after hydraulic jump y(2) were measured for both modular and free flow conditions. The relation of hydraulic quantities of calculated dimensionless parameters with relevant parameters; modular limits, approach velocity coefficients and discharge coefficients etc. were graphed to represent the design relationships for long throated flumes.
