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 ...

Effects of tunnel face distance on surface settlement

open access: yes, 2016
Underground activities such as tunnel excavation may cause soil movements around the excavation area and subsequently the ground surface. Several tunnel construction methods have been developed during the last decades and the most significant effort is ...

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.

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,

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 ...

Study on the Law of Influence of Seepage Field Anomalies on Displacement Field Induced by Leakage of Enclosure Structure

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The leakage of an enclosure structure will cause abnormal changes in the seepage flow field, which in turn can lead to the deformation of the enclosure structure and affect the surrounding geotechnical body.
