    All of the objectslbuildings on the earth can stand due to their structural orders.Standing of a structural order without suffering any damage (broken down, collapsing ... ) is the result of their state of equilibrium. The most important factor effecting the state of equilibrium of any structural order is the force of gravity.Differantiation in the structural orders formed under this stable effect can be explained by the change in the concept of equilibrium. Therefore, analysing the change in architectural and engineering end-products could only be done by understanding the change in the concept of equilibrium.Scientific developments are the basic factors causing the changes in the concept of equilibrium. Reflections of these developments on concrete products is both in the types of load transfer of structural order and in visual expression of order.Consequently, in the scope of the thesis, depending on developments in the science reflections of the change in the concept of equilibrium on concrete products is tried to be explained by structural and geometrical analses. Expression of these analyses are made through the relationship between equilibrium and movement. It is concluded that the change in the structural orders basing on an acceptance of basic physics that "an object is either stable or movable "; is from structures having no motion to structures having any kind of motion (having tendency to move and/or moving). In other words, it can be said that, this change is from immobile structures having whole connection with the ground, to structures trying to remove from the ground.At the end, in today, it is possible to discuss about solutions having different equilibrium orders that is seen/will be seen basing on scientific developments.Generally it is possible to classify these solutions as solutions that can be expressed by different geometrical orders or solutions towards to be independent from the force of gravity.in the light of these determinations the aim of the thesis is to determine changes in the concept of equilibrium and to analyse their effects on structural end-products and to give some clues about their future effects.Keywords: Structural equilibrium, structural balance, gravity, geometry, energy, structural order.

    Higher Curvature Gravity in Large Extra Dimension: Phenomenological Implications
    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2007) Tanyıldızı, Şükrü Hanif; Demir, Durmuş Ali; Demir, Durmuş Ali; 04.05. Department of Pyhsics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    This thesis is devoted to a detailed study of the higher curvature gravity and its phenomenological implications in large extra dimensions. This work is intended as a discussion of effective interactions among brane matter induced by modifications of higher dimensional Einstein gravity via the replacement of Einstein-Hilbert term with a generic function f(R) of the curvature scalar R.In this work, following the introductory chapters on extra dimensions and higher curvature gravity in large extra dimensions, we derive the graviton propagator and then we analyze impact of virtual graviton exchange on interactions among brane matter. We find that f(R) gravity effects are best probed by high-energy processes involving massivegauge bosons, heavy fermions or the Higgs boson. We perform a comparative analysis of the predictions of f(R) gravity and of Arkani.Hamed, Dimopoulos and Dvali (ADD) scenario, and find that the former competes with the latter when f00(0) is positive and comparable to the fundamental scale of gravity in higher dimensions (Demir and Tanyıldızı 2006). In addition, we briefly discuss graviton emission from the brane as well as itsdecays into brane-localized matter and we find that they hardly compete with the ADD expectations.Consequently, we discussed that possible existence of higher-curvature gravitational interactions in large extra spatial dimensions opens up various signatures to be confronted with existing and future collider experiments.
