Tunnel Surface Settlement Forecasting with Ensemble Learning [PDF]

open access: yesSustainability, 2019
Ground surface settlement forecasting in the process of tunnel construction is one of the most important techniques towards sustainable city development and preventing serious damages, such as landscape collapse. It is evident that modern artificial intelligence (AI) models, such as artificial neural network, extreme learning machine, and support ...

Consolidation Settlement of a Soil with an Impervious Top Surface [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Physics, 1941
An investigation is made of the consolidation settlement for a soil whose top surface is impervious and loaded uniformly on an infinite strip of constant width. The settlement under the load is accompanied by considerable swelling of the unloaded area on both sides of the load.

Influence of reinforcement range on ground settlement of shallow-buried super-large-diameter shield tunneling in soft soils

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2021
The shield method is the main construction method for the excavation of underground tunnels in soft soil areas, but the impact of shallow-buried super-large-diameter shield tunneling in soft soils on ground settlement needs to be further studied.

Numerical investigation of the effects of geotechnical parameters on building risk level due to mechanized tunneling in urban areas [PDF]

open access: yesNumerical Methods in Civil Engineering, 2022
In this study, the effects of some geotechnical parameters on the surface settlement curves due to mechanized tunneling and the corresponding risk on surface buildings are investigated through numerical analysis.

Assessment of the Ecological Condition of Informal Settlements Using the Settlement Surface Ecological Index

open access: yesLand, 2023
To manage urban ecological ecosystems adequately, understanding the urban areas’ biophysical characteristics is required. This study developed a settlement surface ecological index (SSEI) using tree, soil, impervious surface and grass covers, land surface temperature (LST), and soil moisture derived from Satellite Pour L’Observation de la Terre (SPOT ...

Surface Sensing and Settlement Strategies of Marine Biofouling Organisms [PDF]

open access: yesBiointerphases, 2012
This review article summarizes some recent insights into the strategies used by marine organisms to select surfaces for colonization. While larger organisms rely on their sensory machinery to select surfaces, smaller microorganisms developed less complex but still effective ways to probe interfaces. Two examples, zoospores of algae and barnacle larvae,

Research on Ground Settlement Regularity of Soft Rock Tunnel under Ultrasmall Distance

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2021
During the tunnel construction under the road, the shallower the tunnel depth, the greater the effect of the surface settlement. Thus, to analyze the ground settlement caused by tunnel construction under ultrasmall distance, the research is based on a ...

Surface water in temporary humanitarian settlements [PDF]

open access: yesWaterlines, 2017
In the Humanitarian Innovation Fund Gap Analysis for water, sanitation, and hygiene issues, field staff identified environmental management of surface water as an area of concern, although this was not reflected at a head office level. This difference of perspectives could be an under-reporting of this aspect of environmental sanitation to the global ...
