Landslide susceptibility mapping : A comparison of logistic regression and neural networks methods in a medium scale study, Hendek Region (Turkey)
E. Yesilnacar,Tamer Topal +1 more
TL;DR: Logistic regression analysis and neural networks are applied to prepare landslide susceptibility map of the problematic segment of the pipeline in the Hendek region of Turkey and the result found by neural network is more realistic.

GIS-based landslide susceptibility mapping for a problematic segment of the natural gas pipeline, Hendek (Turkey)
E. Çevik,Tamer Topal +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the statistical index (Wi) and weighting factor (Wf) methods have been used with GIS to prepare a landslide susceptibility map of the problematic segment of the pipeline.

GIS-based landslide susceptibility mapping using bivariate statistical analysis in Devrek (Zonguldak-Turkey)
TL;DR: In this paper, a landslide susceptibility map using a bivariate statistical index and evaluate and compare the results of the statistical analysis conducted with three different approaches in seed cell concept resulting in different data sets in Geographical Information Systems (GIS) based landslide susceptibility mapping applied to the Devrek region.

Empirical correlations of shear wave velocity (Vs) and penetration resistance (SPT-N) for different soils in an earthquake-prone area (Erbaa-Turkey)
TL;DR: In this paper, empirical correlations between shear wave velocity (Vs) and standard penetration test blow counts (SPT-N) were considered in order to define Shear Wave velocity profiles for the study area.

Engineering geological properties and durability assessment of the Cappadocian tuff
Tamer Topal,Vedat Doyuran +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the material and mass properties of the Cappadocian tuff were evaluated for the assessment of rock durability, and two dominant joint sets were found to not only control the formation but also control the structural stability of fairy chimneys.
