Article Citation - Scopus: 1Factors Affecting Tourist Visits To Archaeological Sites in Turkey: a Spatial Regression Analysis(Lodz University Press, 2023) Toköz, Ö.D.; Avci, A.B.; Duran, H.E.The study focuses on the factors affecting visitor numbers to archaeological sites in Turkey. The aim is to investigate the geographical, economic, and demographic factors underlying the visits using statistical methods. The study covers 117 archaeological site visits in 2019. Although existing studies analysed determinants of visits to archaeological sites of different countries, the evidence needs to be explicit. Methodologically, the classical linear regression models are primarily applied in the literature, whereas the incorporation of spatial dependence has largely been ignored. This study contributes to the literature by employing demographic, economic, and climatic factors and spatial relations between the sites. Therefore, spatial autoregressive (SAR) and spatial error models (SEM) are developed in the analyses. According to the results, WHL inscription and distance to the city centre are crucial factors for the visits. In addition, the study emphasizes the significant negative effect of spatial dependence on visitor numbers of archaeological sites near each other. © by the author, licensee Łódź University – Łódź University Press, Łódź, Poland.Article Eğitim yapılarında asansör trafik analizi yöntemlerinin karşılaştırılmasına yönelik bir araştırma(Gazi Üniversitesi, 2023) Deligöz, Dostcan; Harputlugil, TimuçinPurpose: Regarding elevator design in educational buildings; It is aimed to investigate the legal framework, to integrate dynamic simulation programs to design process, to compare traditional and dynamic simulation methods, to evaluate the adequacy of elevator features specified in the legislation and to determine the optimum scenarios according to the minimum requirements.Theory and Methods: Based on the findings of the literature review, which examines the issue of elevator traffic analysis together with the legislation and regulations, the carrying capacities of the elevators in the educational buildings designed by the Ministry of National Education (MNE) are tested. The stability of the system is tested by analyzing the conditions where only the disabled, disabled and building workers can be used together and all building users can use the elevators with the dynamic simulation method (with Elevate Software). The limits of the system are determined based on the waiting times during the peak usage periods. The findings of the study are evaluated according to the waiting times determined by CIBSE Guide D and the Chamber of Mechanical Engineers followed by the discussion of the outcomes.Results: The issue of elevator design has been overlooked in educational buildings, and a comprehensive elevator traffic analysis method has not been defined. For the effective use of all occupants, elevator design should be handled comprehensively with considering potentials of dynamic simulation method.Conclusion: According to the findings of the study, it is noted that the number and capacity of elevators in the legislation for educational buildings are determined only for minimum conditions and for disabled users. In addition, the legislation (considering calculation methodology) is not specific for educational buildings but related with buildings in general with public use. Considering the occupants, and their profiles of the educational buildings, a more comprehensive traffic analysis with the dynamic simulation method may enable the elevators to be designed and to be used more efficiently.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 6An Investigation of the Design Process's Effect on a High-Performance Building's Actual Energy System Performance(Ios Press, 2022) Terim Çavka, Belgin; Çavka, Hasan Burak; Salehi, M. MahdiThe design intent and the performance targets of projects may sometimes fail to match a building's actual post-occupancy performance. The mismatch of intended and actual building performance can be attributed to multifarious reasons. This study focuses on the role of project decisions made during design as one of the reasons of shortfall. The aim of the study is to unveil the design decision-making process of a state-of-the-art research building through the analysis of project's available set of IDP (Integrated Design Process) documentation. To understand the relationship and correlation between the energy performance gap and the decision-making process of the case building, we investigated the design decisions' effect on the actual performance. The particular emphasis is on the decisions that were based on assumptions rather than measured actual test data for the proposed innovative building systems. The designed heat recovery system, which was dependent on recovered heat from the neighboring research building, had a significant effect on the building's poor energy performance. We investigated collected project data from coordination meetings, thoroughly analyzed project documentation, and quantified the building's actual energy performance data. The analysis of the project information shows the ripple effect of decisions that were made based on assumptions, that triggered shortfalls in the building's overall actual performance. Our qualitative analysis indicates that the poor system performance during operations was related with the design decisions that were not based on the measurement of the actual performance of the existing systems in the neighboring building. The performance of the heat recovery from the neighboring building as a highly dependent Energy Conservation Measure (ECM) analyzed through collected documents and data. The ambiguity of the available heat potential from the neighboring building and related testing issues defined on an explanatory timeline of process coding. The conclusion includes recommendations for the design decision-making process for innovative system integrations for high-performance buildings, and underlines the importance of IDP for complex buildings.Article Geleneksel Konutlarda Günışığı Aydınlığının Değerlendirilmesi: Kula Geleneksel Konutlarında Başoda(Gazi Üniversitesi, 2023) Battal, Cansu; Kazanasmaz, Zehra Tuğçe; İpekoğlu, BaşakDaylighting is one of the main factors among the features that determine the original space qualities in traditional houses. Illuminating the space with daylight also determines its ambience. Daylighting criteria should be considered among the features to be preserved in the usage decisions. In traditional dwellings in Anatolia, the main room is the most lavish room, which has projections and is surrounded by windows on three sides. Therefore, in the buildings which are conserved for reuse, the main room should maintain its original daylighting features. The aim of this study is to draw attention to the maintenance of daylighting features in the restoration decisions of traditional dwellings. Within the scope of the study, daylight performance of the main rooms of Kaçiklar and Zabunlar Houses selected in Kula, Manisa was evaluated. The daylight illuminance of the main rooms was measured during the four seasons; by calculating the ratio of the window area to the floor and wall areas, reflectance of surface materials and normal-normal transmittance of window glass were calculated. Results showed that daylight illuminance of the main room in Kaçiklar House was not sufficient for all four seasons, while it was in Zabunlar House. As a result, while the restoration decisions are developed, opening the closed window in the main room of Kaçiklar House, cleaning the paint on the top windows and and selecting a light-coloured wall finishing material will increase the reflectance value and will positively affect the daylight illuminance; in Zabunlar House, on the other hand, removing the existing wooden glazing in the sofa in order to increase the daylight provided through the sofa and increasing the reflectance value by choosing a light-coloured wall finishing material will increase the daylight illuminance of the main room.Article Citation - WoS: 7Review of Literature for the Concept of Post-Disaster Housing in Turkey(Gazi University, 2008) Baradan, BernaThere have been implementations of post-disaster housing even in historical ages and mentioned in studies concerning a specific period in time in which the disaster occurred in Turkey. With a brief overview of such history of post-disaster housing, the studies were reviewed based on the relationship between approaches and time periods concerning the architectural literature of post-disaster housing in Turkey between 1977 and 2005. There are mainly two types of architectural studies about this concept; observations and analyses about the general policy in Turkey, and case specific studies. These two types of studies can also classified within their writing style as well; descriptive style and analytical style of writing is used for a basis for the comparison of approaches used in the studies. The term ‘architectural literature’ used in this article were used for the works published by the architects and/or studies published in architectural magazines. From this analysis, it could be concluded that the architectural society in Turkey changed its point of view to more humanistic solutions in post-disaster housing after the 1999 Marmara Earthquake.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Çok Fonksiyonlu Form Değiştirebilir Köprü Tasarımı için İki Serbestlikli Strüktürel Mekanizma Önerisi(Gazi Üniversitesi, 2017) Gür, Şebnem; Yar, Müjde; Korkmaz, KorayHareketli köprüler ilk zamanlar korunma ihtiyacı ile tasarlanmıştır.

We specifically investigated how blind people use their senses to compensate for the lack of visual information and how the priority of senses changes according to the urban context. The participants of the study consisted of nine congenitally blind individuals and the study took place in two urban settings: a dense urban district, Kemeralti district in İzmir; and an urban park, the İzmir Fair Park. During the learning phase, a first trial along the selected routes was conducted for each participant individually along with one of the researchers. In the test phase, the participants were requested to re-walk the route and verbally report the environmental cues they attended to. The participants’ verbal reports were recorded and transcripts of the recordings were coded according to the environmental sensory inputs. In addition, the short-term memory of each participant was also evaluated. The results show that the characteristics of the urban environment seem to have an impact on way-finding strategies of blind individuals. It was found that the sound of the city and the echo from the environment are the most important factors for blind participants in the dense urban environment. Environmental boundaries provided echoes and gave a sense of enclosure that helped them orient themselves, whereas, in the park environment, the sense of enclosure was not enhanced due to a lack of boundaries in the environment.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Tarihi Konutların Yeniden Kullanımında Geleneksel Ocakların Güncel Isıtma Yüklerini Karşılama Etkinliği: Güneybatı Anadolu’dan Örnekler(Gazi Üniversitesi, 2023) Timur, Barış Ali; Başaran, Tahsin; İpekoğlu, BaşakAnadolu tarihi konutlarında ısıtma elemanı olarak yaygın kullanılan geleneksel ocaklar, estetik önemleri yanında fonksiyonel değerler taşır. Bu elemanların ısıl özelliklerinin belirlenmesi, tarihi konutların yeniden kullanımlarında ısıl konforun sağlanması için uygulanacak olası müdahalelerin kapsamının saptanması bakımından belirleyici bir değerlendirme alanıdır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, geleneksel ocakların, güncel kullanım senaryolarına bağlı olarak ısıl ihtiyaçları karşılama potansiyelinin belirlenmesidir. İncelenen yapı türü, açık sofalı tarihi konutlardır. Çalışmanın yöntemi, kırsal ve kentsel yerleşmelerden seçilmiş örnek iki konutta yıllık ısıl ölçümlerin alınması, yapılarda kullanılan yapım malzemelerinin termofiziksel özelliklerinin laboratuvar ölçümleriyle belirlenmesi ve yapıların DesignBuilder v5.4.0.21 yazılımında modellenerek zamana bağlı ısıl analizlerinin, modelin doğrulanması yapıldıktan sonra, gerçekleştirilmesi aşamalarını kapsamaktadır. Analizlerle belirlenen mekânsal birim zamandaki ısınma enerjisi ihtiyacının zamana bağlı değişim değerleri, örnek konutlarda bulunan ocakların maksimum ısıtma güçleriyle karşılaştırılmış ve ocakların ısıl ihtiyaçları karşılama oranları bulunmuştur. Sunulan analiz süreçlerinin, tarihi konutlar için kurgulanacak ısıtma sistemi değerlendirmelerine yöntem açısından katkı sağlaması hedeflenmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda, kentsel konutta bulunan üç ocaktan ikisinin bulundukları mekânlar için yüksek düzeyde yeterli olduğu, bir ocağın ise daha yetersiz kaldığı; kırsal konutta ise analizi yapılan her iki ocağın da yeterli ısıtma düzeyine sahip olduğu belirlenmiştir. Böylece, incelenen yapılarda tasarlanacak olası ısıtma düzenlemelerinin kapsamının belirlenmesine yönelik veriler oluşturulmuştur.
