Analysis of the probability of failure for open-grown trees during wind storms
Ciftci, Cihan; Arwade, Sanjay R.; Kane, Brian; Brena, Sergio F. (ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2014)Although trees convey important environmental, economic, and sociological benefits on humans and society, they can also cause significant economic and societal disruptions, especially when subjected to wind storms in ... -
Effect of ambient temperature on the flexural behavior of 3D printed composite beams
Yıldırım, Afşin Talha; Eroglu, Fatih; Yesilyurt, Ogulcan; Albayrak, Kubilay; Sas, Hatice S.; Ciftci, Cihan (Soc. for the Advancement of Material and Process Engineering, 2018)Adaptation of the additive manufacturing technology with 3D printers may lead to a new track in the manufacturing of composite materials. This additive manufacturing technology aims to mitigate manufacturing challenges and ... -
Experimental Investigation on the Bonding Strength of Knotted CFRP Bars in Bulk Plastics
Ciftci, Cihan (MDPI, 2023)Improving the interfacial bonding strength of CFRP materials is crucial for enabling the development of novel composite beam structures with higher specific bending strength demanded by the composite industry. In this ... -
Experimental Study on Increase of Bonding Strength of FRP Reinforcement in Concrete
Taskin, Furkan; Ciftci, Cihan (SPRINGER LINK, 2022)In the last two decades, the use of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars is of great interest to reinforce concrete beam structures due to its high specific strength, effective corrosion resistance, and low cost fabrication. ... -
Investigation of compressive performance of 3D printed carbon fiber reinforced plastics
Eroglu, Fatih; Yildirim, Afsin Talha; Yesilyurt, Ogulcan; Sas, Hatice S.; Ciftci, Cihan (Soc. for the Advancement of Material and Process Engineering, 2018)The compressive performance of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics (CFRP) is an extensive research area of crashworthy structures due to high Specific Energy Absorption (SEA) rates. However, the traditional composite manufacturing ... -
Investigation of the Mechanical Behavior of a New Generation Wind Turbine Blade Technology
Ciftci, Cihan; Erdogan, Ayse; Genc, Mustafa Serdar (MDP, 2023)Wind turbine blades are one of the largest parts of wind power systems. It is a handicap that these large parts of numerous wind turbines will become scrap in the near future. To prevent this handicap, newly produced blades ... -
Loss in moment capacity of tree stems induced by decay
Ciftci, Cihan; Kane, Brian; Brena, Sergio F.; Arwade, Sanjay R. (SPRINGER HEIDELBERG, 2014)Key message We model varying decay in tree crosssections by considering bending theory to estimate moment capacity loss (MCL) for the sections. We compare MCL with experiments on selected oak trees. Abstract Tree failures ... -
