Parametric study of hexagonal castellated beams in post-tensioned self-centering steel connections

Hassan ABEDI SARVESTANI

Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering 2019, Volume 13, Issue 5,   Pages 1020-1035 doi: 10.1007/s11709-019-0534-6

Abstract: The effects of important parameters (beam reinforcing plates, initial post-tensioning, and material properties of steel angles) on the behavior of hexagonal castellated beams in post-tensioned self-centering (PTSC) connections undergone cyclic loading up to 4% lateral drift have been investigated by finite element (FE) analysis using ABAQUS. The PTSC connection is comprised of bolted top and bottom angles as energy dissipaters and steel strands to provide self-centering capacity. The FE analysis has also been validated against the experimental test. The new formulations derived from analytical method has been proposed to predict bending moment of PTSC connections. The web-post buckling in hexagonal castellated beams has been identified as the dominant failure mode when excessive initial post-tensioning force is applied to reach greater bending moment resistance, so it is required to limit the highest initial post-tensioning force to prevent this failure. Furthermore, properties of steel material has been simulated using bilinear elastoplastic modeling with 1.5% strain-hardening which has perfectly matched with the real material of steel angles. It is recommended to avoid using steel angles with high yielding strength since they lead to the yielding of bolt shank. The necessity of reinforcing plates to prevent beam flange from local buckling has been reaffirmed.

Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering 2021, Volume 15, Issue 2,   Pages 506-519 doi: 10.1007/s11709-021-0677-0

Abstract: Lateral displacement due to liquefaction ( ) is the most destructive effect of earthquakes in saturated loose or semi-loose sandy soil. Among all earthquake parameters, the standardized cumulative absolute velocity ( ) exhibits the largest correlation with increasing pore water pressure and liquefaction. Furthermore, the complex effect o fine content( ) at different values has been studied and demonstrated. Nevertheless, these two contexts have not been entered into empirical and semi-empirical models to predict This study bridges this gap by adding to the data set and developing two artificial neural network (ANN) models. The first model is based on the entire range of the parameters, whereas the second model is based on the samples with values that are less than the 28% critical value. The results demonstrate the higher accuracy of the second model that is developed even with less data. Additionally, according to the uncertainties in the geotechnical and earthquake parameters, sensitivity analysis was performed via Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) using the second developed ANN model that exhibited higher accuracy. The results demonstrated the significant influence of the uncertainties of earthquake parameters on predicting

Effect of variable heat capacities on performance of an irreversible Miller heat engine

Frontiers in Energy 2012, Volume 6, Issue 3,   Pages 280-284 doi: 10.1007/s11708-012-0203-0

Abstract: Based on the variable heat capacities of the working fluid, the irreversibility coming from the compression and expansion processes, and the heat leak losses through the cylinder wall, an irreversible cycle model of the Miller heat engine was established, from which expressions for the efficiency and work output of the cycle were derived. The performance characteristic curves of the Miller heat engine were generated through numerical calculation, from which the optimal regions of some main parameters such as the work output, efficiency and pressure ratio were determined. Moreover, the influence of the compression and expansion efficiencies, the variable heat capacities and the heat leak losses on the performance of the cycle was discussed in detail, and consequently, some significant results were obtained.

Compressive strength prediction and optimization design of sustainable concrete based on squirrel search algorithm-extreme gradient boosting technique

Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering   Pages 1310-1325 doi: 10.1007/s11709-023-0997-3

Abstract: Concrete is the most commonly used construction material. However, its production leads to high carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and energy consumption. Therefore, developing waste-substitutable concrete components is necessary. Improving the sustainability and greenness of concrete is the focus of this research. In this regard, 899 data points were collected from existing studies where cement, slag, fly ash, superplasticizer, coarse aggregate, and fine aggregate were considered potential influential factors. The complex relationship between influential factors and concrete compressive strength makes the prediction and estimation of compressive strength difficult. Instead of the traditional compressive strength test, this study combines five novel metaheuristic algorithms with extreme gradient boosting (XGB) to predict the compressive strength of green concrete based on fly ash and blast furnace slag. The intelligent prediction models were assessed using the root mean square error (RMSE), coefficient of determination (R2), mean absolute error (MAE), and variance accounted for (VAF). The results indicated that the squirrel search algorithm-extreme gradient boosting (SSA-XGB) yielded the best overall prediction performance with R2 values of 0.9930 and 0.9576, VAF values of 99.30 and 95.79, MAE values of 0.52 and 2.50, RMSE of 1.34 and 3.31 for the training and testing sets, respectively. The remaining five prediction methods yield promising results. Therefore, the developed hybrid XGB model can be introduced as an accurate and fast technique for the performance prediction of green concrete. Finally, the developed SSA-XGB considered the effects of all the input factors on the compressive strength. The ability of the model to predict the performance of concrete with unknown proportions can play a significant role in accelerating the development and application of sustainable concrete and furthering a sustainable economy.

Parametric sensitivity analysis of cellular diaphragm wall

Xi CHEN, Wei XU

Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering 2012, Volume 6, Issue 4,   Pages 358-364 doi: 10.1007/s11709-012-0177-3

Abstract: The deformation law of the cellular diaphragm wall in deep foundation pits was studied through numerical simulation. Based on the example of the dock wall in engineering, the full three-dimensional finite element model was used to simulate the excavation of the foundation pit. Interaction between the cellular diaphragm wall and the soil was also taken into account in the calculation. The results indicated that the maximum lateral displacement, which is the evaluation index of sensitivity analysis, appeared on the top of the interior longitudinal wall with an excavation depth of 10 m. The centrifuge model test was carried out to study the deformation regulation for a cellular diaphragm wall. The most sensitive factor was found by adjusting the length of the partition wall, the spacing of the partition wall and the thickness of the wall. In the end, a suggestion was proposed to optimize the cellular diaphragm by adjusting the length of the partition wall.

Visual recognition of cardiac pathology based on 3D parametric model reconstruction Research Article

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2022, Volume 23, Issue 9,   Pages 1324-1337 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2200102

Abstract: Visual recognition of cardiac images is important for and treatment. Due to the limited availability of annotated datasets, traditional methods usually extract features directly from two-dimensional slices of three-dimensional (3D) heart images, followed by pathological classification. This process may not ensure the overall anatomical consistency in 3D heart. A new method for classification of cardiac pathology is therefore proposed based on reconstruction. First, 3D heart models are reconstructed based on multiple 3D volumes of cardiac imaging data at the end-systole (ES) and end-diastole (ED) phases. Next, based on these reconstructed 3D hearts, s are constructed through the statistical shape model (SSM), and then the heart data are augmented via the variation in shape parameters of one with visual knowledge constraints. Finally, shape and motion features of 3D heart models across two phases are extracted to classify cardiac pathology. Comprehensive experiments on the automated cardiac diagnosis challenge (ACDC) dataset of the Statistical Atlases and Computational Modelling of the Heart (STACOM) workshop confirm the superior performance and efficiency of this proposed approach.
