Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Assessment of Seismic Liquefaction and Structural Instability in Adiyaman-Golbasi After the February 6, 2023, Earthquakes in Türkiye(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2025) Ecemis, Nurhan; Dalgıç, Korhan Deniz; Donmez, Cemalettin; Karaman, Mustafa; Karaman, Mustafa; Dönmez, Cemalettin; Valizadeh, Hadi; Ecemiş, Nurhan; Dalgic, Korhan DenizTwo earthquakes, Mw = 7.8 Kahramanmaras,-Pazarcik, and Mw = 7.6 Elbistan, occurred on February 6, 2023, approximately 9 h apart. These earthquakes caused devastating effects in a total of 11 nearby cities on the east side of T & uuml;rkiye (Adana, Adiyaman, Diyarbakir, Elazig, Gaziantep, Hatay, Kahramanmaras,, Kilis, Malatya, Osmaniye, and S,anliurfa) and the north side of Syria. These earthquakes provided an outstanding prospect to observe the effects of liquefaction in silty sand and liquefaction-like behavior in clays (cyclic softening) on the stability of structures. This paper specifically presents the post-earthquake reconnaissance at three sites and evaluations of four buildings within these sites in Adiyaman Province, Golbas, i District. First, important role of post-earthquake piezocone penetration test (CPTu) in characterizing the subsurface conditions was presented. Then, the effect of soil liquefaction and cyclic softening on the performance of four buildings during the earthquakes was evaluated. These structures represent the typical new reinforced concrete buildings in T & uuml;rkiye with 3 to 6-story, situated on shallow (raft) foundations, and demonstrated diverse structural performances from full resilience to moderate and extensive damage during the aforementioned earthquakes. Based on the interim findings from these sites, the potential factors that caused moderate to severe damage to buildings were inspected, and preliminary-immediate insights were presented on the relationship between structural design, soil properties, and the performance of buildings with shallow foundations.Article Citation - WoS: 21Citation - Scopus: 23Soil Liquefaction-Induced Uplift of Buried Pipes in Sand-Granulated Mixture: Numerical Modeling(Elsevier, 2022) Valizadeh, Hadi; Ecemiş, NurhanThe significant uplift of buried pipes observed during recent earthquakes has showed the need for further research in remediation methods for soil liquefaction. Sand-granulated rubber mixture is reported as a new soil improvement method that can be applied as a liquefaction mitigation filling material around buried pipe. In this study, the effects of pipe size, burial depth, and shaking intensity on the pipe uplift and the liquefaction potential of the sand-tire derived granulated rubber mixture placed around the buried pipes were investigated using numerical models. First, the result of 1-g shaking table tests was used for the verification of the numerical analysis. Comparing the numerical results and the experimental measurements showed that the numerical simulation using the UBCSAND constitutive model could accurately estimate the liquefaction-induced uplift of the buried pipes as well as the related failure. Then, a parametric study was conducted to investigate the effects of the pipe diameter, the pipe depth, and the value of the acceleration on pipe uplift and liquefaction potential when the SGR mixture was placed as filling material. Eventually, an analytical formula was proposed to estimate the liquefaction-induced uplift of buried pipes, and the soil failure mode was categorized according to the pipe's burial depth ratio.Article Citation - WoS: 36Citation - Scopus: 39Sand-Granulated Rubber Mixture To Prevent Liquefaction-Induced Uplift of Buried Pipes: a Shaking Table Study(Springer, 2021) Ecemiş, Nurhan; Valizadeh, Hadi; Karaman, MustafaBuried pipelines in liquefiable soils are vulnerable and can float during earthquake excitation. The uplift forces due to pore-water-pressure generation relocate the pipelines in the soil. Therefore, it is essential to measure the liquefaction effects of the backfill materials on buried pipes and make an intelligent choice for the surrounding soil to reduce the applied forces on pipelines during liquefaction. Recently, scrap tire-soil mixtures have been used as a new geomaterial to decrease the adverse effects of liquefaction. This paper investigates the flotation of the buried pipe and the sand-granulated rubber mixture's effectiveness around the pipe by a series of shaking table tests. Dynamic tests were performed under 1 g conditions on a fully saturated sand-granulated rubber mixture with small-diameter buried pipes. Three different granulated-rubber dimensions of 2.5-5, 5-10, and 10-15 mm and granulated rubber ratios of 10, 20, and 30 percent were examined in the tests. The outcomes of excess pore water pressure, settlement, pipe uplift, and upward pressure during and after shaking were compared. The test results demonstrated that the sand-granulated rubber mixture reduces excess pore water pressure accumulation and prevents liquefaction. Moreover, the effect of pipe diameter, burial depth, consolidation coefficient of the mixture, and uplift initiation time on pore water pressure and load increment below the pipe were combined to predict the buried pipe's uplift probability.
