International Journal of Integrated Engineering, 2022 Quantitative classification from the Slope Mass Rating (SMR) has introduced an empirical assessment for rock slope stability rating. This stability classification enables us to foreseethe magnitude and susceptibility of rock mass failure towards adjacent infrastructure and human life.

Learning curves and changing product attributes: the case of wind turbines [PDF]
, 2006 The heuristic concept of learning curves describes cost reductions as a function of cumulative production. A study of the Liberty shipbuilders suggested that product quality and production scale are other relevant factors that affect costs.

Comparison of Slope Mass Ratings Classification Systems: A Review
, 2021 Abstract Engineering rock mass classifications are vital for empirical approach to evaluate and predict engineering behavior of a rock mass. Now well established empirical relations between behavior of the rock mass and the rock mass properties with regard to specific engineering applications have become an important tool for resolving many geo-
