Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Seismic Testing and Modeling of Full-Scale Substandard Rc Columns Retrofitted With Sprayed Gfrm With and Without Basalt Mesh Under High Axial Compression and Shear Demand(Asce-Amer Soc Civil Engineers, 2025) Kian, Nima; Demir, Ugur; Ates, Ali Osman; Celik, Oguz C.; Ilki, AlperThis study presents the experimental and analytical hysteretic behaviors of eight full-scale RC square and rectangular columns. The columns were designed to have different shear spans that represent: (1) a column that complies with the Turkish Government Ministry of Reconstruction and Resettlement's ( 1975) seismic design code, Turkish Seismic Design Code (TSDC); (2) a substandard column; and (3) two sprayed glass fiber-reinforced mortar (GFRM)-retrofitted counterparts of the substandard column with and without basalt mesh. The substandard columns were designed to be subjected to relatively high shear ratios (i.e., the ratio of the shear force that corresponds to the moment capacity to shear strength of the cross section) up to 0.85 and with a high axial load-to-capacity ratio of 0.75. All columns were tested under constant axial load and reversed cyclic lateral displacement excursions. The results revealed that the columns that complied with the TSDC showed satisfactory behavior for seismic performance, and the performance of the substandard columns was extremely poor. However, the hysteretic performance of the substandard columns that were subjected to high axial stress and shear significantly improved after the proposed retrofitting. Finally, a numerical model was developed in OpenSees to reproduce the hysteresis curves of the specimens. The slip of the longitudinal bars at the column-foundation interface, strain penetration into the foundation, and buckling of the longitudinal bars in compression were accounted for in the modeling. The results are in good agreement with the experimental hysteresis curves. The performance levels of the columns are further specified, and the predictions of the current seismic codes were analyzed: (1) the European Committee for Standardization's 2005 code, Eurocode 8: Design of structures for earthquake resistance; Parts 1-3: Strengthening and repair of buildings (EC8-3); and (2) the Turkish Government Ministry of Interior Disaster and Emergency Management Authority's 2018 code, Turkish Building Earthquake Code (TBEC). The TBEC provided more accurate estimates of plastic rotation capacities for substandard specimens. In contrast, EC8-3 overestimated the plastic rotation capacity when shear stresses were relatively high due to lower shear span-to-depth ratios (a/d).Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5Breakthrough Curve Analysis of Phosphorylated Hazelnut Shell Waste in Column Operation for Continuous Harvesting of Lithium From Water(Elsevier, 2024) Recepoğlu, Yaşar Kemal; Arar, Ozguer; Yuksel, AsliIn batch-scale operations, biosorption employing phosphorylated hazelnut shell waste (FHS) revealed excellent lithium removal and recovery efficiency. Scaling up and implementing packed bed column systems necessitates further design and performance optimization. Lithium biosorption via FHS was investigated utilizing a continuous-flow packed-bed column operated under various flow rates and bed heights to remove Li to ultra-low levels and recover it. The Li biosorption capacity of the FHS column was unaffected by the bed height, however, when the flow rate was increased, the capacity of the FHS column decreased. The breakthrough time, exhaustion time, and uptake capacity of the column bed increased with increasing column bed height, whereas they decreased with increasing influent flow rate. At flow rates of 0.25, 0.5, and 1.0 mL/min, bed volumes (BVs, mL solution/mL biosorbent) at the breakthrough point were found to be 477, 369, and 347, respectively, with the required BVs for total saturation point of 941, 911, and 829, while the total capacity was calculated as 22.29, 20.07, and 17.69 mg Li/g sorbent. In the 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 cm height columns filled with FHS, the breakthrough times were 282, 366, and 433 min, respectively, whereas the periods required for saturation were 781, 897, and 1033 min. The three conventional breakthrough models of the Thomas, Yoon-Nelson, and Modified Dose-Response (MDR) were used to properly estimate the whole breakthrough behavior of the FHS column and the characteristic model parameters. Li's extremely favorable separation utilizing FHS was evidenced by the steep S-shape of the breakthrough curves for both parameters flow rate and bed height. The reusability of FHS was demonstrated by operating the packed bed column in multi-cycle mode, with no appreciable loss in column performance.
