Cilingir's research frequently employs centrifugal testing to simulate real-world earthquake conditions (up to 100 G-level) to observe failure mechanisms in soil and embedded structures, which are later validated by FEA models.

The maximum input acceleration of an earthquake plays a crucial role in determining both maximum and residual lining forces. Studies indicate that TDA, when used as a

Studies indicate that TDA, when used as a compressible layer, can be effective in reducing overburden loads on buried structures, though it may also cause additional acceleration amplification at the surface. 3. Key Methodology: Centrifuge Modelling 2. Geotechnical Structure Performance

Fully coupled FE simulations are essential to capture the non-linear behaviour of soil, especially when evaluating permanent deformations in tunnel linings. 2. Geotechnical Structure Performance
