Investigating the Structure of a Coastal Karstic Aquifer through the Hydrogeological Characterization of Springs Using Geophysical Methods and Field Investigation, Gökova Bay, SW Turkey
The electrical resistivity tomography method has been widely used in geophysics for many purposes such as determining geological structures, water movement, saltwater intrusion, and tectonic regime modeling. Karstic springs are important for water basin management since the karst systems are highly complex and vulnerable to exploitation and contamination. An accurate geophysical model of the subsurface is needed to reveal the spring structure. In this study, several karst springs in the Gökova Bay (SW, Turkey) were investigated to create a 3D subsurface model of the nearby karstic cavities utilizing electrical resistivity measurements. For this approach, 2D resistivity profiles were acquired and interpreted. Stratigraphically, colluvium, conglomerate, and dolomitic-limestone units were located in the field. The resistivity values of these formations were determined considering both the literature and field survey. Then, 2D profiles were interpolated to create a 3D resistivity model of the study area. Medium-large sized cavities were identified as well as their locations relative to the springs. The measured resistivities were also correlated with the corresponding geological units. The results were then used to construct a 3D model that aids to reveal the cavity geometry in the subsurface. Additionally, several faults are detected and their effect on the cavities is interpreted.

Geotechnical Investigations and Geological Engineering Approaches in Landsliding on Pipelines
En tr Turkey has many powerlines and various pipeline network due to its geopolitical position. Especially in recent years, many natural gas pipelines are projected and constructed in Turkey because of the rising need of energy supply in Europe. However, some problems which cannot be predicted during projecting stage can be occurred after the completion of construction stage and can jeopardize the safety of life and property. For this reason, rutin technical checking are crucial for the completed pipeline projects. In this study, a landslide occurred on a natural gas pipeline is investigated and engineering solutions are suggested. In this regard, field studies, office studies and laboratory studies are performed. Within the context of field studies, boreholes are drilled and test pits are excavated. Core samples obtained from the boreholes and soil samples handled from the test pits are subjected to laboratory tests. The results of laboratory tests are evaluated with the office studies and engineering approaches are fulfilled. With this study it is deduced that, the landsliding is triggered with excessive rainfall, the thickness of residual material is very shallow and it does not exist any risk of jeopardize the safety of life and property about the project. Türkiye jeopolitik konumundan dolayı birçok enerji nakil hatlarına ve değişik amaçlı boru hattı ağına sahiptir. Özellikle son yıllarda Avrupa’daki enerji arzı sebebiyle Türkiye’den geçen birçok doğalgaz boru hattı projelendirilmekte ve inşa edilmektedir. Ancak, projelendirme aşamasında öngörülemeyen bazı sorunlar inşa aşaması tamamlandıktan sonra ortaya çıkabilmekte, bazı durumlarda can ve mal güvenliğini tehlikeye sokabilmektedir. Bu nedenle, inşa aşaması tamamlanan boru hattı projelerinde rutin kontrollerin gerçekleştirilmesi büyük önem arz etmektedir. Bu çalışmada, bir doğalgaz boru hattı üzerinde meydana gelmiş olan bir heyelan incelenmiş ve mühendislik çözümleri önerilmiştir. Bu bağlamda, arazi çalışmaları, ofis çalışmaları ve laboratuvar çalışmaları gerçekleştirilmiştir. Arazi çalışmaları kapsamında, sondaj kuyuları ve araştırma çukurları açılmıştır. Sondaj kuyularından alınan sondaj karotları ve açılan araştırma çukurlarından alınan numuneler üzerinde gerçekleştirilen deneyler laboratuvar çalışmaları kapsamında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu çalışmalardan elde edilen sonuçlar, ofis çalışmaları ile değerlendirilmiş ve konuyla ilgili mühendislik yaklaşımları ortaya koyulmuştur. Bu bağlamda, boru hattı üzerinde meydana gelen heyelanın gelen aşırı yağışlarla tetiklendiği, heyelanın gerçekleştiği rezidüel malzeme kalınlığının çok az olduğu ve proje ile ilgili can ve mal güvenliğini tehlikeye düşürecek herhangi bir durumun bulunmadığı sonucuna varılmıştır.

Geotechnical characterization of a pipe stock site for its suitability in terms of bearing capacity and liquefaction considering the economic aspects
Geotechnical investigations are generally site specific and the parameters variate spatially and sometimes temporally due to the meteorological events and earth dynamics. In this study, the suitability of an inert area to utilize for a pipe stock site under a natural gas pipeline project considering the economic yield. Within the context of this study, office works and field works are performed. Geotechnical data are collected with the field works in order to assess sub-surface conditions prevailing under the proposed loads or pipe batch structures. Under field works, drilling operations, in –situ testing are performed. Assessment of the collected sub-surface data and its interpretation are realized within the office works. In other respects, rentability is one of the main parameter controlling the feasibility of the project in engineering. In this study, bearing capacity of the soil profile and the liquefaction potential of the investigated area are enlighten and the suitability of the study area for the project is evaluated comparing with the different alternatives of soil remediation techniques with the consideration of their costs. As a result of this study it is revealed that the soil remediation costs are much more than port storage renting fees.

SAVCIBEY GÖLETİ (BİLECİK) EKSEN YERİNİN GEÇİRİMLİLİĞİ VE ENJEKSİYON PERDESİNİN BOYUTLANDIRILMASI
Öz Bu çalışma, Savcıbey Göleti (Söğüt/Bilecik) eksen yerinin geçirimsizliğini sağlamak amacıyla yapılması planlanan enjeksiyon perdesinin boyutlandırılmasını kapsamaktadır. Arazi çalışmaları kapsamında mühendislik jeolojisi haritası yapılmış, araştırma sondajları açılmış ve bu araştırma sondajlarında geçirimlilik deneyleri gerçekleştirilmiştir. Arazi çalışmaları ile eksen yerindeki Triyas yaşlı Bozuyük Metamorfikleri’ne ait şistlerin içerdiği süreksizliklerin özellikleri ve geçirimliliğe olan etkisi, süreksizliklerin eksen yerine göre konumları göz önüne alınarak gözlemsel olarak belirlenmiştir. Süreksizlik konumları genel olarak K-G ile KKD-GGB arasında değişen doğrultulara sahiptir. Baraj ekseninde 5 adet, memba batardosu üzerinde 2 adet, çevirme tüneli güzergâhında 3 adet, dolusavak yerinde ise 2 adet olmak üzere toplam 245 m derinliğinde araştırma sondajları açılmıştır. Eksen yerindeki kayaçların geçirimliliğinin belirlenebilmesi ve enjeksiyon perdesinin boyutlandırılabilmesi amacıyla, Bozüyük Metamorfitleri’ne ait birimlerde Lugeon deneyleri, talvegdeki alüvyonlarda ve sağ yamaçta yüzeylenen yamaç molozunda ise düşen seviyeli geçirimlilik deneyleri gerçekleştirilmiştir. Lugeon deneyleri sonucunda Bozüyük Metamorfitleri’nin genel olarak geçirimli ve yer yer az geçirimli özellikte olduğu belirlenmiştir. Alüvyon ve yamaç molozu ise çok geçirimlidir. Ayrıca, eksen yerinde gerçekleştirilen sondaj çalışmaları, Triyas yaşlı Bozüyük Metamorfiklerinde ayrışma derecesinin artmasıyla geçirimliliğin de arttığını göstermiştir. Tüm çalışmaların sonucunda Savcıbey Göleti’nin geçirimliliği ile ilgili bilgiler toplanmış ve enjeksiyon perdesi boyutlandırılmıştır. Buna göre, 1.50 m’lik sıyırma kazısından itibaren ortalama 40 m derinliğinde oluşturulacak bir enjeksiyon perdesinin muhtemel kaçakları engelleyeceği öngörülmüştür.
