Name, Last name : FIRAT BA Ğ Signature : iii ABSTRACT NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF THE ÇINARCIK DAM FAILURE ON THE ORHANEL İ RIVER Ba ğ, Fırat M.Sc., Department of Civil Engineering Supervisor : Asst. Prof. Dr. Zafer BOZKU Ş January 2005, 131 pages This thesis analyzes the probable outcome of the fictitious failure of a dam under a set of pre-defined scenarios, within the framework of a case study, the case subject being the Çınarcık Dam located within Bursa Province of Turkey. The failure of the dam is not ana- lyzed neither structural nor hydraulic-wise but is assumed to be triggered when certain critical criteria are exceeded. Hence, the analyses focus on the aftermath of the failure and strive to anticipate the level of inundation downstream of the dam itself. For the pur- pose of the analyses, the FLDWAV software developed by the National Weather Service of USA is used to spatially and temporally predict the flow profiles, water surface eleva- tions and discharges occurring downstream of the Çınarcık Dam under the defined set of scenarios. Based on these analyses, indicative inundation maps and settlements under risk will be identified, and the thesis study will further address some available pre-event measures that may be taken in advance.

Doç. Dr. Zafer BOZKU Ş Ocak 2005, 131 sayfa Bu tez çalı şması, önceden belirlenmi ş bir dizi senaryo çerçevesinde kurmaca bir baraj yıkılmasının olası etkilerini, bir durum çalı şması çerçevesinde analiz etmektedir. Durum çalı şmasının konusu Türkiye’nin Bursa İli’nde yer alan Çınarcık Barajı’dır. Barajın yıkıl- ması yapısal ya da hidrolik anlamda analiz edilmemekte; yıkılmanın belirli kritik kıstaslar aşıldı ğında tetiklendi ği varsayılmaktadır. Dolayısıyla analizler, yıkılmanın ardından ger- çekle şen olumsuz sonuçlara odaklanmakta ve barajın mansabındaki ta şkın düzeyini ön- görmeye çalı şmaktadır. Analizler sırasında Çınarcık Barajı’nın mansabında gerçekleşen akı ş profillerini, su yüzü kotlarını ve de şarj de ğerlerini, tanımlanan senaryolar çerçevesin- de uzamsal ve zamansal olarak tahmin etmek amacıyla, Amerika Birle şik Devletleri’nin resmi bir kurumu olan “National Weather Service” tarafından geliştirilmi ş olan FLDWAV yazılımı kullanılmı ştır. Bu analizler esas alınarak, gösterge düzeyinde ta şkın haritaları ve bunlara göre risk altında olan yerle şim yerleri tespit edilecektir. Tez çalı şması ayrıca olay öncesi alınabilecek mevcut bazı önlemlere de de ğinecektir.
