Generative Adversarial Networks for Labelled Vibration Data Generation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
As Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) being implemented more over the years, the use of operational modal analysis of civil structures has become more significant for the assessment and evaluation of engineering structures. Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) algorithms have been in use for structural damage diagnostics of civil structures in ...

The Definition of Civil Engineering [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 1896
There is an error in my paper on the Artistic Element in Engineering which I should like to correct. Following the lead of other writers, I have ascribed the classic definition of civil engineering to Telford instead of to Tredgold, whom I have recently learned was its author. See R. R. Gazette of December 28, 1894,

State of the Art of Augmented Reality (AR) Capabilities for Civil Infrastructure Applications [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Augmented Reality (AR) is a technology superimposing interactional virtual objects onto a real environment. Since the beginning of the millennium, AR technologies have shown rapid growth, with significant research publications in engineering and science. However, the civil infrastructure community has minimally implemented AR technologies to date.

Causal Diagrams for Structural Engineers [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Causal diagrams are logic and graphical tools that depict assumptions about presumed causal relations. Such diagrams have proven effective in tackling a variety of problems in social sciences and epidemiology research yet remain foreign to civil engineers.

A digital twin framework for civil engineering structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The digital twin concept represents an appealing opportunity to advance condition-based and predictive maintenance paradigms for civil engineering systems, thus allowing reduced lifecycle costs, increased system safety, and increased system availability.

The importance of understanding computer analyses in civil engineering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Sophisticated computer modelling systems are widely used in civil engineering analysis. This paper takes examples from structural engineering, environmental engineering, flood management and geotechnical engineering to illustrate the need for civil ...

The Cosmic Hitchhikers Hypothesis: Extraterrestrial Civilizations Using Free-Floating Planets for Interstellar Colonization [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
I propose the Cosmic Hitchhikers hypothesis as follows. Advanced extraterrestrial civilizations may use free-floating planets as interstellar transportation for space exploration and interstellar colonization. Large groups or populations of their biological species, post-biological species, and technologies may become Cosmic Hitchhikers when they ride ...

Introduction of Structural Health Monitoring to Civil Engineering Education [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This paper describes the development of a Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) Education Unit; its initial implementation and assessment at Louisiana State University (LSU) and the University of Louisiana- Lafayette (UL-Lafayette) during the 2016-17 ...

FIRE AND THE CIVIL ENGINEER.

open access: yesProceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers, 1971
THE STEADY IMPROVEMENT IN BUILDING REGULATIONS AND THEIR ADMINISTRATION IS ASSISTING THE WORK OF FIRE PROTECTION IN THOSE BRANCHES OF BUILDING DESIGN THAT ARE NORMALLY THE PROVINCE OF THE ARCHITECT. CIVIL ENGINEERS DO NOT ALWAYS HAVE SUCH ASSISTANCE AVAILABLE. THE WORKS THEY DESIGN MIGHT APPEAR TO BE FREE FROM ALL RISK OF FIRE.
