    Coastal planning and the evaluation of coastal structures in terms of sustainability
    (ISEC Press, 2016) Gulbahar, Necati; Kanli, Imam Bakir; Odabasi, Didem
    Coasts are cross-sections of the water and land environments, for thousands of years they formed under the factors of climate, geological, geomorphological, topographic and hydraulic and it has reached a natural balance. But increasingly this natural balance is disrupted due to human impact. Coasts, with their strategic position, are a wealth of resources for people with endless possibilities and mild climate. Therefore, coasts continuously have remained under great pressure just because of residential, transportation, energy, economy and tourism. These pressures can be minimized by applying the principles of science and engineering with a rational urban planning. It will be held after an urban planning at the macro level, as a part of that plan, it should be considered in the design of optimal engineering structures. Therefore, the structure of the planning and design engineering for optimal site selection should be done and compatible structures integrated with topography and bathymetry such as coastal hydrodynamics should be designed. In this paper, after briefly the occurrence and type of coasts, the strategic importance of coastal will be highlighted and coastal planning and engineering structures in Turkey will be examined in terms of sustainability by demonstrating some examples and solutions will be proposed for encountered problems. © 2016 ISEC Press.

    COASTAL PLANNING AND THE EVALUATION OF COASTAL STRUCTURES IN TERMS OF SUSTAINABILITY

    Energy alternatives evaluation in Turkey by using multicriteria decision making methodologies
    (World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd, 2016) Alcan, Pelin; Odabasi, Didem; Balin, Abit
    As we search to achieve sustainable development and substance, energy security and efficiency should be viewed not only from the perspective of addressing short-term challenges, but also as a necessity for long-term growth of the economy. Latterly, some articles have majored on selecting the best energy policy and arbitrating the best energy alternatives. In this paper, AHP, VIKOR, PROMETHEE and TOPSIS approaches are suggested for the selection among energy policies. The methodology is based on these four methods under a comparison. In the application of the proposed methodologies, the best energy policy is determined for Turkey. © 2016 by World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte. Ltd.

    Examination of use of water and soil resources in terms of urban sustainability
    (ISEC Press, 2016) Gulbahar, Necati; Kanli, Imam Bakir; Odabasi, Didem
    Cities are the organization of “collective consumption” and of welfare delivery and are the major consumers of renewable and non-renewable resources. The rapid urbanization process and its chaotic problems such as drastic urbanization and ecological challenges have been phenomenal. As the population rapidly rises in the world, the requirements for water resources also increase for various reasons at the same time. On the other hand, global warming, greenhouse effect and degradation of forests make worse the situation. However, these negative consequences show how we are going to face the tragic problems for the next two or three decades. While the term of sustainability is defined and connected only with the environment now it is explained with a comprehensive term undertaking not only the environment but also the social, economic, cultural and governance aspects of cities. Sustainability has been discussed at various meetings for years such as the UN meeting “the Earth Summit” which took place in Rio in 1992 and emphasized that cities should be liveable in terms of costs, social equity and the ecology, which are the three major principles of sustainable development, but concrete and applicable results have not been achieved yet. In this study use of basic resources in particular water and soil will be analysed and examined based on sustainability and its major components such as economic, sociologic, ecologic within the limits of the paper. The study will also be evaluated through the balance of protection and use of resources considering certain samples in the context of Marmara Watershed in Turkey and Istanbul in particular. Literature reviews, quantitative and qualitative information, reports prepared by the institutions, statistics, and observations have been chosen and used as the method. Solutions and proposals will also be suggested based on the findings. © 2016 ISEC Press.
