Gradient Boosting‐Based Modeling of Structural Performance in Hybrid Multi‐Tube Columns

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study presents an advanced predictive framework for estimating the ultimate confined strength (fcc,u) and ultimate strain (εcc,u) of a hybrid multi‐tube concrete column (MTCC), an innovative structural system that combines a fiber‐reinforced polymer (FRP) outer tube, inner steel tubes, and void‐filled concrete.

Study on the Deformation Characteristics of Railway Subgrade Structures Induced by Groundwater Level Changes

Advances in Civil Engineering
The groundwater extraction will lead to a drop in water level, causing a change in the distribution of additional stress in the strata. This phenomenon leads to uneven settlement of the railway subgrade.

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Reinforced Soil Slopes With Vertical Rib and Inclined Reinforcement: Application to Embankment Slopes

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Reinforced soil technology is widely applied in slope stabilization, yet the optimal configuration of reinforcement remains a key design challenge. This study presents a comprehensive investigation of vertical rib‐reinforced and inclined‐reinforced geogrid layouts through scaled physical model tests (1:10) and finite element simulations using MIDAS GTS.

Evaluation of the Performance of a Composite Material Made From Lateritic Soil, Crushed Granite, and Cement for Use as the Base Layer of Road Pavement

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The base layer is important for the road pavement structural performance. This study aims to monitor the performance of various local composite materials as road construction materials. To do this, an experimental study treated the improvement of geotechnical properties of a lateritic gravel, initially nonadopted as a base layer, by using three ...
