Effect of the specimen length on ultrasonic P-wave velocity in some volcanic rocks and limestones
Karaman, Kadir; Kaya, Ayberk; Kesimal, Ayhan (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2015)Ultrasonic P-wave velocity (UPV) is commonly used in different fields such as civil, mining, geotechnical, and rock engineering. One of the significant parameters which affect the UPV of rock materials is likely to be the ... -
Geotechnical investigations and remediation design for failure of tunnel portal section: a case study in northern Turkey
Kaya, Ayberk; Karaman, Kadir; Bulut, Fikri (Science Press, 2017)Mass movements are very common problems in the eastern Black Sea region of Turkey due to its climate conditions, geological, and geomorphological characteristics. High slope angle, weathering, dense rainfalls, and anthropogenic ... -
Understanding the mechanism of slope failure on a nearby highway tunnel route by different slope stability analysis methods: a case from NE Turkey
Kaya, Ayberk; Akgün, Aykut; Karaman, Kadir; Bulut, Fikri (Springer Heidelberg, 2016)The Arakli tunnel is located in the eastern Black Sea region where the most mass movement is observed in Turkey. Following the tunnel entrance portal excavations in basaltic tuffs on nearby the Konakonu residential area, ... -
Use of the point load index in estimation of the strength rating for the RMR system
Karaman, Kadir; Kaya, Ayberk; Kesimal, Ayhan (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2015)The Rock Mass Rating (RMR) system is a worldwide reference for design applications involving estimation of rock mass properties and tunnel support. in the RMR system, Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS) is an important ... -
Utilizing the strength conversion factor in the estimation of uniaxial compressive strength from the point load index
Kaya, Ayberk; Karaman, Kadir (Springer Heidelberg, 2016)The strength conversion factor (k) is the ratio between the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) and the point load index (PLI). It has been used to estimate the UCS from the PLI since the 1960s. Many researchers have ...
