معرفی
Tuğçe Başar is a Lecturer in the Department of Civil Engineering at Başkent University. Her academic career is complemented by a Ph.D. (2020), Master's (2010), and BSc (2007) from Middle East Technical University, all in Civil Engineering.
- PhD, Middle East Technical University, Civil Engineering (2020)
- Master's, Middle East Technical University, Civil Engineering (2010)
- BSc, Middle East Technical University, Civil Engineering (2007)
Her research focuses on Hydromechanics, Numerical Modeling, Water Structures, and Fluid Mechanics. She has extensively applied computational tools like Fluent to analyze hydraulic systems, including draft tubes, surge tanks, tailwater tunnels, and spillway aerators. Her work aligns with sustainable development goals in water resource management, particularly through regional case studies like the Southeastern Anatolia Project (GAP).
Tuğçe Başar has contributed to academic discourse through presentations at peer-reviewed conferences such as the XVIth World Water Congress (2017), ACE 2016 International Congress, and the 6th International Perspectives on Water Resources & the Environment (2013). Her publications demonstrate a consistent emphasis on numerical modeling and practical engineering solutions.
She serves as a reviewer ("Hakem") for the Journal of Politeknik (2025) and is a member of the International Water Resources Association. Her teaching portfolio includes courses such as Civil Engineering Design, Computer Programming, and Applied Hydraulics, reflecting her technical expertise in both structural and computational domains.
