    Reliability-Based Evaluation of Scouring Around Dual Bridge Piers
    (Croatian Soc Civil Engineers-hsgi, 2019) Yilmaz, Meric; Calamak, Melih; Yanmaz, A. Melih
    The causes of uncertainty involved in temporal variation of the depth of cavern formation due to clear water scouring at dual piers with tandem arrangement are identified in this study. In an example, the probability of failure induced by scouring around dual piers is estimated for various pier spacing using probabilistic analysis. The effects of changes in the coefficient of variation of probabilistic scouring variables and probability distributions on the probability of the loss of stability, are also investigated. It was established that the effects of variations in the coefficient of variation on the probability of the loss of stability are more significant compared to that on the probability distributions of the scour depth.

    New Organizations in Complex Networks: Survival and Success
    (Sciendo, 2022) Asbaş,C.; Senyuva,Z.; Tuzlukaya,S.
    Purpose: The present study investigates the survival and success of new organizations in the light of complex network theory. Methodology: The empirical data was collected using the survey method from the technology park companies are analyzed with social network analysis. Two main methods were used in this study: descriptive statistics and social network analysis. Findings: The findings indicate that new nodes appearing because of splitting up of bigger nodes from present or other related networks have a higher degree of centrality. In practice, this means that companies founded by former members of large-scale companies from these networks are more successful due to the ease in providing the flow of resources and information through previous links. This suggests that the imprint effect can be observed in the appearance, lifecycle, and performance of new nodes in complex networks. Originality: The literature lacks studies on new organizations' lifecycle in complex networks despite the existence of studies about new organizations in organizational networks. This study examines the appearance, success, and survival of new organizations in networks by complex network approaches such as dynamism, dissipative structures, and uncertainties. © 2022 Caner Asbaş et al., published by Sciendo.
