Recognition of the Typical Distress in Concrete Pavement Based on GPR and 1D-CNN
Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) signal recognition depends much on manual feature extraction. However, the complexity of radar detection signals leads to conventional intelligent algorithms lacking sufficient flexibility in concrete pavement detection ...

Stress-strain state of earth dam under harmonic effect [PDF]
Stress-strain state of earth dams under the effect of harmonic (seismic) load from the base of the dam is numerically studied in the paper. Rock fill dam has good culvert properties and its water saturation is considered to have no effect on mechanical ...

Review on overtopping failure and flood evolution of earth-rock dams
Flood events caused by the overtopping failure of earth-rock dams often lead to catastrophic disasters. Therefore, examining the cause of the dam failure and studying the subsequent flood evolution processes are extremely important for disaster ...

Application of fractal theory in rockfill rheology
The rockfill material crushes during the process of rheology and the fractal dimension of rockfill material varies with time. Based on the basic rule of rheological process of coarse-grained soils, the fractal theory is applied into the analysis of ...
