Backtracking Search Optimization: A Novel Global Optimization Algorithm for the Inversion of Gravity Anomalies
In this paper, an implementation of Backtracking search optimization (BSA), a non-gradient iterative evolutionary algorithm, is presented for model parameter estimation applications using gravity anomalies. This is the ...
Geoheritage in a Mythical and Volcanic Terrain: an Inventory and Assessment Study for Geopark and Geotourism, Nemrut Volcano (Bitlis, Eastern Turkey)
(Sprınger Heıdelberg, 2021)
Mt. Nemrut (Nemrut volcano or caldera) is a quiescent Quaternary volcano situated in Eastern Anatolia (Turkey) near the western shore of Lake Van. The onset of Nemrut volcanism comprised lava flows and the formation of ...
Gravity data inversion for the basement relief delineation through global optimization: a case study from the Aegean Graben System, western Anatolia, Turkey
(Oxford Unıv Press, 2021)
Aegean Graben System is a significant member of the complex geology of western Turkey. The depths to the metamorphic basement reliefs in two major grabens have been reported by many geophysical studies. However, the sediment ...
Time-dependent model for earthquake occurrence and effects of design spectra on structural performance: a case study from the North Anatolian Fault Zone, Turkey
(Scıentıfıc Technıcal Research Councıl Turkey-Tubıtak, 2021)
We have investigated the time-dependent seismicity model of the earthquake occurrence on a regional basis through the North Anatolian Fault Zone (NAFZ). To that end, the studied region has been subdivided into 7 seismogenic ...
On the drape and level flying aeromagnetic survey modes with terrain effects, and data reduction between arbitrary surfaces
(Scıentıfıc Technıcal Research Councıl Turkey-Tubıtak, 2021)
In addition to the physical parameters such as magnetization intensity distribution, the volume and the shape of the magnetized material, directions of the magnetization and the ambient field, the distance between the ...
The Effect of Site-Specific Design Spectrum on Earthquake-Building Parameters: A Case Study from the Marmara Region (NW Turkey)
(Mdpı, 2020)
The Marmara Region (NW Turkey) has experienced significant earthquakes (M > 7.0) to date. A destructive earthquake is also expected in the region. To determine the effect of the specific design spectrum, eleven provinces ...
Geophysical Investigation of Mount Nemrut Stratovolcano (Bitlis, Eastern Turkey) Through Aeromagnetic Anomaly Analyses
(Sprınger Basel Ag, 2020)
Quaternary Mount Nemrut stratovolcano, having a spectacular summit caldera and associated lakes, is located north of the Bitlis-Zagros suture zone, Eastern Turkey. Although much attention has been paid to its geology, ...
Parameter estimations from gravity and magnetic anomalies due to deep-seated faults: differential evolution versus particle swarm optimization
(Scıentıfıc Technıcal Research Councıl Turkey-Tubıtak, 2019)
Estimation of causative source parameters is an essential tool in exploration geophysics and is frequently applied using potential field datasets. Naturally inspired metaheuristic optimization algorithms based on some ...
Amplitude inversion of the 2D analytic signal of magnetic anomalies through the differential evolution algorithm
(Oxford Unıv Press, 2017)
In this work, analytic signal amplitude (ASA) inversion of total field magnetic anomalies has been achieved by differential evolution (DE) which is a population-based evolutionary metaheuristic algorithm. Using an elitist ...
Eolianite and coquinite as evidence of MIS 6 and 5, NW Black Sea coast, Turkey
(Elsevıer Scı Ltd, 2017)
This paper discusses the implications of a lowstand carbonate eolianite and overlying transgressive sequence of coquinite at Sile on the Turkish Black Sea coast based on composition, depositional characteristics and optical ...
