Models to estimate Brazilian indirect tensile strength of limestone in saturated state
There are a number of methods for estimating physical and mechanical characteristics. Principally, the most widely used method is regression, but recently, more sophisticated methods such as neural networks have frequently been applied as well. This paper presents the models of a simple and a multiple regression and neural networks –types Radial Basis ...
