Polat G\u00fclkan is a structural engineer and an academician who has an international reputation in earthquake and seismic design studies. He graduated from the Department of Civil Engineering at METU. Then, he received his M.Sc. degree and Ph.D. from University of Illinois Urbana- Champaign. He has worked at Middle East Technical University for many years. Then, from 2017 to 2019, He has joined Bilkent University Department of Architecture as a part-time instructor. Currently, he is a faculty member at Ba\u015fkent University at the Department of Civil Engineering. He has published extensively on disaster engineering and he has earned a global recognition in earthquake engineering. Recently, Dr. G\u00fclkan has been accepted as a member of National Academy of Engineering &#8211; a very prestigious international organization that only accepts superior achievements of engineering.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-sticky is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained wp-container-1 is-position-sticky\">\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Date:<\/strong> 16\/10\/2023 Monday<br><strong>Time:<\/strong> 12:30-13:30<br><strong>Place:<\/strong> FFB-05<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n<div class=\"taxonomy-post_tag wp-block-post-terms\"><a href=\"https:\/\/arch.bilkent.edu.tr\/?tag=earthquake\" rel=\"tag\">Earthquake<\/a><span class=\"wp-block-post-terms__separator\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/arch.bilkent.edu.tr\/?tag=engineering\" rel=\"tag\">Engineering<\/a><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"taxonomy-category wp-block-post-terms\"><a href=\"https:\/\/arch.bilkent.edu.tr\/?cat=40\" rel=\"tag\">2023<\/a><span class=\"wp-block-post-terms__separator\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/arch.bilkent.edu.tr\/?cat=7\" rel=\"tag\">Lectures<\/a><span class=\"wp-block-post-terms__separator\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/arch.bilkent.edu.tr\/?cat=6\" rel=\"tag\">News &amp; Events<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the wake of the immense disaster caused by the February 2023 Kahramanmara\u015f earthquakes, the lecture focuses on structural performance and its vulnerabilities under the impact of seismic forces.
