Introduction
My research focuses on performance-based seismic design and analysis of reinforced concrete structures. During my MSc and PhD studies, I have developed various structural design methods to enhance the seismic performance of reinforced concrete structures. My end goal is to contribute to the next-generation seismic resistant design practice.

On 30 October 2020, an M 7.0 earthquake occurred north of Samos Island. The fault rupture caused sudden lowering of the seafloor, which produced a tsunami that mainly impacted nearby Samos Island as well as a series of Anatolian cities along the coast of Seferihisar Bay, with maximum runup and inundation lengths of about 3.8 m and 2500 m, resulting...
Site observations and analytical studies show that low-rise RC frames have larger interstory drift ratios at the lower stories under earthquake loading. It is obvious that due to the localization of drifts, these structures could reach their capacity limits earlier than a system with a well-distributed drift among its stories. This phenomenon is es...
Bilgisayar teknolojilerindeki gelişmeler betonarme elemanların modellenmesinde yayılı plastisiteye sahip lif esaslı eleman modellerinin veya bunların türevlerinin kullanımına gittikçe daha çok imkan tanımaktadır. Benzer şekilde, yapısal malzemelerin davranışlarını temsil eden daha karmaşık modellerin de kullanımı artmaktadır. Bu sayısal modellerin...
Deprem talepleri altında oluşan ötelenme yoğunlaşmaları, dolgu duvarlı çerçevelerde sık görülen bir sorundur ve yapılarda hasar ve göçmelere neden olabilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, farklı özelliklerde dolgu duvarlar kullanılarak çerçevenin yüksekliği boyunca değişen bir rijitlik dağılımı elde edilmesi ve bu yolla ötelenme yoğunlaşmalarının azaltılması...
Interstory drift concentration under seismic demands is a common issue in reinforced concrete frames which may result in premature failures. In this study, an organized stiffness distribution along the building height was studied to mitigate the drift concentrations. The targeted stiffness distribution was obtained by placing infill walls whose sti...
