This study proposes the use of a High-strength Steel Wire Fiber Bragg Grating (HSW-FBG) sensor embedded in commonly-used cables composed of 5–7 mm parallel steel wires. The HSW-FBG sensor facilitates direct strain measurement, offering a simple and user-friendly packaging process for high-precision monitoring throughout the cable’s lifespan. The results demonstrate excellent linearity and repeatability in strain detection of the HSW-FBG sensor. The length of the packaging layer has the most significant impact on the strain transfer efficiency (STE) coefficient and should be at least 60 mm required for optimal performance. Additionally, the elastic modulus of the packaging layer moderately affects the STE coefficient. Adhering to these packaging parameter requirements ensures that the STE coefficient of the HSW-FBG sensor is very close to 1, enabling for high-precision measurement without correction. A systematic analysis of the STE coefficient of the HSW-FBG sensor is conducted, determining reasonable values for the packaging parameters. These findings lay the groundwork for future engineering applications, facilitating accurate measurement of cable forces in practical scenarios.","PeriodicalId":17897,"journal":{"name":"KSCE Journal of Civil Engineering","volume":"62 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141614820","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, previous studies employing statistics and machine learning approaches would present challenges in comprehensively analyzing the influence of pavement distress on IRI considering their severities. This study introduces interpretable machine learning to investigate the influence of pavement distress on IRI, with a particular focus on the severity of pavement distress. The pavement distress and IRI data for flexible pavements obtained from the long-term pavement performance (LTPP) program were meticulously preprocessed. The developed random forest (RF) model demonstrated satisfactory predictive performance, with an RMSE of 0.2191 and an R2 of 0.7874. The relationship between pavement distress and IRI, as captured by the developed model, was further analyzed using the SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) method. The model interpretation identified the transverse crack, rutting, and alligator crack as the key factors influencing IRI. Notably, both transverse and alligator cracks exhibited significant contributions to IRI increment at medium and high severity levels, highlighting the importance of proactive maintenance for these distress types at lower severity levels. Additionally, a threshold in rutting depth was observed, which could increase IRI. A comparative analysis with the AASHTO MEPDG smoothness model demonstrated that the predictive performance of the RF model was notably superior.","PeriodicalId":17897,"journal":{"name":"KSCE Journal of Civil Engineering","volume":"51 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141612202","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An analytical solution for the temperature between the freezing pipe and excavation surface was deduced in this study to evaluate the freezing effect at this stage. The solution is verified by in-situ measurements of a large-scale freezing project. The analytical solution shows that the temperature is related to the thermal conductivity of the frozen curtain, the shotcrete, the refrigerant temperature, the excavation surface temperature, and the design scheme of the frozen curtain. Moreover, the excavation surface temperature (Ts) is the critical factor. Then, the equations for the thickness and average temperature of the frozen curtain on the side close to the excavation area are derived. Numerical calculations of the frozen curtain base on analytical solution were carried out to analytical frozen curtain. The results show that when the heat dissipation of the exposed excavation surface is considered, the tensile stresses of the vault and bottom plate increase by up to 135%, the compressive stress of the sidewall increases by 29%, and the shear stress of the shoulder increases by 144%. While three solutions were proposed, and their application scenarios and effects are discussed.

These specimens were subjected to low cyclic load experiments while maintaining a constant axial compression ratio to assess the impact of the hidden bracings installation on the seismic performance of these walls. The findings reveal that the failure patterns of the shear walls, both with and without hidden bracings, are comparable. The formation and development of plastic hinges were observed at the wall’s base, which result in significant structural failure. The aeolian sand concrete shear walls with hidden bracings have superior load-bearing capacities when compared to their conventional counterparts under same lateral displacements. The hysteresis curves obtained from all 6 specimens are relatively complete and display an evident pinching effect. The aeolian sand concrete shear walls equipped with hidden bracings demonstrate enhanced seismic energy dissipation and ductility relative to the ordinary ones. After analysis and comparison, it is determined that a cumulative damage analysis model, based on repeated energy loads of concrete structures, aligns well with test results.

The investigation was conducted using twenty-one RC columns, which were categorized into seven groups. For a maximum cumulative volume fraction of 1%, each group of columns had a specific fiber-reinforced concrete mix with a specific proportion of steel and/or polypropylene fibers. The corrosion of these reinforced concrete (RC) columns was accelerated through the implementation of the impressed current regime. Gravimetric measurements were conducted on these columns following the completion of the corrosion process. Ultimately, this study encompasses the findings and an analysis of the calibration parameters specific to the different combinations and proportions of fiber-reinforced concrete.

The results show that the polymer can improve the dynamic mechanical properties of concrete, and the dynamic mechanical properties of PRC with polymer content of 4% is the best. With the increase of polymer content, the peak strain of PRC increases, the dynamic compressive strength of PRC first increases and then decreases, and the fractal dimension of fragments of PRC first decreases and then increases.

The TGF-rich zone further affects the liquid phase flow when the frozen curtain is thawed. However, there is a lack of studies on the TGF-rich zone within the frozen curtain. To address this gap, a simplified and practical 2D bonded particle model-based numerical simulation strategy was developed to identify the possibility of acquiring field characteristics of the TGF-rich zone by conducting numerical tests on samples considering size effects. The results, validated by the experiment, indicated that the influence of size on crack localization zone was comparable to that of the parameter gradient but had a weaker characteristic on crack orientation, which represents the orientation of TGF. In particular, the characterization result of the TGF-rich zone using crack localization zone in the simulation closely matched that using lateral strain localization zone both in simulation and experiment. Regarding the size effects of the TGF-rich zone revealed in the simulation, the estimated field length of the TGF-rich zone accounted for approximately 30% of the zone width characterized by a horizontal thermal gradient, with maximum orthotropic deformation occurring at about 10% of the zone width. These observations validate the existence of TGF within the frozen curtain and contribute to the development of a precise grouting technique to mitigate subsidence within soil deposits subjected to freeze-thaw.","PeriodicalId":17897,"journal":{"name":"KSCE Journal of Civil Engineering","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141612204","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In HKTSMA, the scrambled Halton sequence was utilized to increase population uniformity. By Adjusting the oscillation factor, HKTSMA performs better in controlling the step length and convergence. A novel learning mechanism was proposed based on the k-nearest neighbor clustering method that significantly improved the convergence speed, accuracy, and stability. Then, to increase the probability of escaping the local optima, an enhanced adaptive t-distribution mutation strategy was applied.

The effect of the type and frequency of seismic waves on the dynamic response law of the C&S-RAC and EB-SAC reinforced slopes was clarified, and a new method for evaluating the dynamic stability of anchored slopes based on GMM was established. The results show that the shock-absorbing devices of the C&S-RAC and EB-SAC can effectively reduce the shock effect of earthquakes on slopes and reduce the whiplash effect of anchored slopes. The seismic reinforcement performance of each type of anti-seismic anchor cable differs at different seismic frequencies, and the influence of the seismic wave frequency should be considered when selecting anti-seismic anchor cables in the seismic reinforcement design of slopes. The EB-SAC buffer cushion effectively decreases the vibration intensity of the anchor plate and has a stronger seismic isolation effect on high-frequency seismic waves.

In this research, we define pore scale variables and investigate the size effects on these variables through statistical analysis. Additionally, we propose novel empirical formulas for predicting porosity and permeability based on X-ray CT images acquired at varying resolutions from the same carbonate rock sample. Our results indicate that the scanning direction has minimal influence on the physical and hydraulic properties, while these properties are significantly affected by image resolution. The porosity and permeability calculated using the proposed formulas show good agreement with experimental results, with errors below 10%.
