Article Citation - WoS: 1Artificial Neutral Networks To Predict Design Properties for Cemented Embankment Layers of High Speed Train Rail Ways(Foundation Cement, Lime, Concrete, 2013) Egeli, İsfendiyar; Tayfur, Gökmen; Yılmaz, E.; Uşun, HandanI. EGELI, G. TAYFUR, E. YILMAZ, H. USUN ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS TO PREDICT DESIGN PROPERTIES FOR CEMENTED EMBANKMENT LAYERS OF HIGH SPEED TRAIN RAILWAYS Cement-Wapno-Beton, Vol. XVIII/LXXX, 2013, No 1, p. 10 High-speed train railway (HSTR) embankment is a complicated process, as it deals with high geometric design standards and material properties. In this study the replaceability of fill strata without cement prepared subgrade layer and with cement addition one is investigated. In the experiments the specimens composed of natural sand with different cement additions and two w/c ratios were used. The Plaxis-FEM (2D) program was employed to find the maximum expected total settlements of HSTR embankments with cemented subgrade layer. Furthermore, the artificial neural networks model was constructed to predict the failure stress, elasticity modulus and strains. The sensivity analysis has revealed that cement content was the most sensitive for stress and elasticity modulus predictions, while the curing age of specimens was for the strain forecast.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 7Experimental and Modeling Study of Strength of High Strength Concrete Containing Binary and Ternary Binders(Foundation Cement, Lime, Concrete, 2011) Erdem, Tahir Kemal; Tayfur, Gökmen; Kırca, ÖnderSilica fume (SF), fl y ash (FA) and ground granulated blastfurnace slag (S) are among the most widely utilized mineral additions for normal strength concrete (NSC) and high strength concrete (HSC). High Reactivity Metakaolin (HRMK) is a relatively new mineral addition, produced by calcination of highly pure kaolin. The replacement of cement with HRMK increases the strength, especially at early ages, and improves durability of concrete. (1-3). Pumice (P) is a porous volcanic glass containing 60-75 SiO2% and 13-17% Al2O3. When fi nely ground, it shows pozzolanic characteristics but it is generally used as a lightweight aggregate in the concrete industry (4, 5). HRMK and P have white color and, therefore, are useful for production of white concrete when applied with white Portland cement (WPC)Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Estimation of Mechanical Properties of Limestone Using Regression Analyses and Ann(Foundation Cement, Lime, Concrete, 2012) Teomete, Egemen; Tayfur, Gökmen; Aktaş, EnginEstimation of mechanical properties of rocks is important for researchers and field engineers working in cement and concrete industry. Limestone is used in cement production. In this study, Schmidt hammer, ultrasonic pulse velocity, porosity, uniaxial compression and indirect tension tests were conducted on limestone obtained from a historical structure. Regression analyses were used to develop models relating mechanical properties of limestone. Artificial Neural Network (ANN) was performed to determine the mechanical properties. The performance of regression models and ANN were compared by existing models in the literature. The results showed that the regression models and ANN yield satisfactory performance with minimum error. The regression models between tensile strength and wave velocity, tensile strength and porosity, wave velocity and porosity have been developed for the first time in literature. The ANN is used for the first time to estimate the mechanical properties of limestone. The use of separate training and testing sets in the regression analyses of mechanical properties of limestone is conducted for the first time. The models developed in this study can be used by researchers and field engineers to relate the mechanical properties of limestone.
