Natural Gradient Boosting for Probabilistic Prediction of Soaked CBR Values Using an Explainable Artificial Intelligence Approach

open access: yesBuildings
The California bearing ratio (CBR) value of subgrade is the most used parameter for dimensioning flexible and rigid pavements. The test for determining the CBR value is typically conducted under soaked conditions and is costly, labour-intensive, and time-

Development and Validation of a Seismic Design Method for Anchored Retaining Walls

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Retaining walls with multiple anchor levels are widely used as permanent excavation support systems for the construction of linear infrastructures. Yet, their seismic behaviour remains largely unexplored, and current design approaches rely on conventional procedures that do not adequately reflect the actual dynamic response of these systems ...

Preoperative and postoperative risk factors for arthrogenic muscle inhibition in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: A retrospective study

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose This study aimed to identify preoperative and postoperative risk factors associated with the development of arthrogenic muscle inhibition (AMI) in patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). The hypothesis was that distinct risk factors contribute to the occurrence of preoperative and postoperative AMI ...

How Regulatory Costs Impede Financial Technology Gains

open access: yesEuropean Financial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While financial technology innovation lowers intermediation costs, regulatory frictions may prevent these gains from reaching long‐term investors and borrowers. Using variation in retail investor participation driven by state securities registration lapses in peer‐to‐peer lending, we demonstrate that regulatory frictions are associated with ...

Laboratory and Field Assessment of Chemically-Stabilized Subgrade Moduli under Compressive and Flexural Loading [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The design and quality of the chemically-stabilized subgrade (CSS) layer have a vital role in the overall performance of the asphalt pavement. Uniform compaction of the CSS layer to the desired level can assure the amenability to design considerations ...

Mathematical Modeling of the Rail Track Superstructure–Subgrade System

open access: yesGeotechnics
The “rail track superstructure–subgrade” system is a sophisticated engineering structure critical in ensuring safe and efficient train operations. Its analysis and design rely on mathematical modeling to capture the interactions between system components

Deep sliding instability mechanism and remediation measures: The subgrade soil slope along the Jingguang Railway at K1219

open access: yes地质科技通报, 2022
To explore the deep sliding instability mechanism of a soil slope, taking the subgrade slope instability at K1219+000 of the downward line of the Beijing-Guangzhou railway as an example, the deformation and failure characteristics, geomechanical process ...

High Strength Steel Fatigue Crack Growth Database for Offshore Renewable Energy Applications

open access: yesFatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT High strength steels can reduce costs and carbon emissions in offshore renewable energy, but their effect on structural integrity remains unclear. In welded structures, such as support structures for offshore wind and tidal turbines, fatigue life is dominated by crack growth from flaws at weld toes.

Effective Shoulder Design and Maintenance: TR-531, 2007 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Granular shoulders are an important element of the transportation system and are constantly subjected to performance problems due to wind- and water-induced erosion, rutting, edge drop-off, and slope irregularities.
