Using an independently designed and developed lateral grouting test device, a horizontal lateral grouting model test was conducted to study the tunnel force state and deformation repair law under the action of lateral grouting. The mechanical responses of tunnel under single-hole grouting (SHG) and two double-holes grouting (DHG) cases were comparatively analyzed, and the test results were further validated via numerical simulations. The results indicate that several key indicators of tunnel behavior, including additional pressure, bending moment, radial displacement, convergence deformation, and ellipticity, exhibit a positive correlation with the grouting volume and a negative correlation with the distance to the grouting point when implementing SHG. Expect for radial displacement, all of these metrics caused by DHG were greater than those caused by SHG. The horizontal radial displacement increases under same-side DHG but decreases under different-side DHG. Interestingly, same-side DHG is more favorable for reducing internal force and repairing tunnel deformation, and effectively improves tunnel differentiated deformation state along the longitudinal direction. However, different-side DHG can provide a better effect for transverse convergence deformation repair under the premise of minimizing tunnel overall displacement.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":56013,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Geotechnics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141136452","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unlike traditional Building Information Modeling (BIM), Digital Twin technology offers a real-time, dynamic representation of physical infrastructure, enabling improved asset management through distributed sensing and predictive performance analytics. Leveraging findings from the Australian Research Council (ARC)’s Industry Transformation Research Hub for Smart Next Generation Transport Pavements (SPARC Hub), this paper focuses on the integration of pavement testing, design, construction, condition assessment and asset management into the lifecycle of unbound road pavements. The paper outlines how such technological integration streamlines decision-making processes and significantly boosts the functionality and longevity of pavement infrastructures.

The method is more suitable for feature characterisation of two-dimensional data and satisfies incremental updates. The test results indicated that the proposed method has an average recognition accuracy of 0.9124 for the four types of internal defects in roadbeds. Compared to the other four classical machine learning methods, it balances training efficiency and recognition accuracy. Robustness analysis results demonstrated that the method is noise-resistant. However, comprehending the recognition results of intelligent algorithms is a key topic. Local interpretation approach is introduced to quantify the feature importance that affects the decision of the model. Based on the feature importance calculation, it is possible to distinguish between positive and negative regions in one sample that influence the decision of the detection model.

The granular material of the embankment consists of millions of fine angular particles which are difficult to model due to the long computational time. The long computational time also prevents the modeling of the higher number of loading cycles. As a result, researchers prefer to simulate the project in 2D to accelerate the simulation. While 2D simulations present a seemingly simple option for modeling railways, they tend to oversimplify the intricacies of particle interactions and the distribution of stress. Nonetheless, the extent to which these simplifications affect the authenticity of the simulations has remained ambiguous. In this study, the periodic cell replication method is used to build extensive long railway tracks significantly faster than conventional methods. Then, this DEM model is calibrated against the measurement results of a physical full-scale ballasted track. The model is then used to simulate several railway projects with different initial particle arrangements and model dimensions in both 2D and 3D. The results show that the 2D models are more dependant on the initial particle arrangement which shows different behavior for the same model. In addition, 2D simulations are incapable of reproducing the principal stress rotation in granular layers due to the moving load of the train wheel. As a result, 3D DEM simulations using the periodic cell replication method is suggested for studying the railway tracks.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":56013,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Geotechnics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S221439122400093X/pdfft?md5=cb62ddff1749e71b069125ff5e641b42&pid=1-s2.0-S221439122400093X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140947013","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bridge performance depends on several geotechnical assets among which abutments play a key role as they support the bridge span, and transfer the vertical and horizontal loads from the superstructure to the foundation. Soil abutments are designed to be stable against overturning and sliding and prevent differential settlement and excessive lateral movements. In the United States, 42 % of bridges are observed to be over 50 years old. Department of Transportation (DOT) agencies periodically monitor and assess the bridge conditions typically every two years. Due to the costs and the time involved in conducting inspections using traditional data collection tools, DOTs are exploring innovative technologies to conduct inspections and realize benefits in terms of access, cost, and safety. They have widely adopted the use of uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) for structural health monitoring of bridges. A few studies also conducted 360⁰ bridge inspections using camera sensors mounted on UAVs in the recent past. In this current study, the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) guidelines for commercial use of drones were discussed and followed in field studies. Further, UAVs were demonstrated for conducting 360° bridge inspections and identifying the erosion near abutments using three-dimensional models. This paper presents the application of innovative technologies for geotechnical assessments of two bridges in the Alaska region, with a focus on assessing the need for rehabilitation measures. These new technologies have become essential for reliable condition monitoring post-disaster events as well. This approach is expected to benefit the agencies in managing the transportation geotechnical assets in a timely and cost-effective manner.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":56013,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Geotechnics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140947580","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
