 Res. Asst. Bilge Sultan DEMİRTAŞ Presented a Paper at COMPDYN 2025


Res. Asst. Bilge Sultan DEMİRTAŞ from Istanbul Gelisim University presented a joint paper with Prof. Dr. Ayşe EDİNÇLİLER at COMPDYN 2025, focusing on the seismic performance of retaining walls with geogrid-reinforced foundations. The study offers valuable insights into enhancing soil–structure interaction through numerical analysis.


Bilge Sultan DEMİRTAŞ, a Research Assistant in the Department of Civil Engineering at Istanbul Gelisim University, presented a scientific paper at “COMPDYN 2025 – 10th ECCOMAS Thematic Conference on Computational Methods in Structural Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering,” held between June 15–18, 2025.

The study, titled “Effectiveness of Geogrid Reinforced Foundation on Seismic Performance of Retaining Wall: Numerical Study”, was conducted in collaboration with Prof. Dr. Ayşe EDİNÇLİLER from Boğaziçi University. The paper evaluates, through numerical analysis, the seismic performance of retaining walls with geogrid-reinforced foundations under earthquake loading conditions.

This research highlights the effectiveness of geogrid applications in enhancing soil–structure interaction and contributes significantly to the improvement of seismic resilience in engineering design.

We congratulate Res. Asst. Bilge Sultan DEMİRTAŞ on this valuable scientific contribution and wish her continued success in her academic career.
