Numerical simulation of Submarine non-rigid landslide by an explicit three-step incompressible smoothed particle hydrodynamics
(Elsevier, 2021)
Deformable landslide body is modeled as a rheological material when SPH methods are used for numerical simulations. To increase accuracy, Carreau-Yasuda rheological model is chosen in this study. The model overcomes the ...
The Influence of Accelerated Carbonation on Physical and Mechanical Properties of Hemp-Fibre-Reinforced Alkali-Activated Fly Ash and Fly Ash/Slag Mortars
(MDPI, 2022)
The physical and mechanical properties of hemp-fibre-reinforced alkali-activated (AA) mortars under accelerated carbonation were evaluated. Two matrices of different physical and chemical properties, i.e., a low Ca-containing ...
LES study on the urban wind energy resources above the roof of buildings in generic cluster arrangements: Impact of building position
(Elsevier, 2023)
Urbanisation brought an increasing prevalence of groups of high-rise buildings and raised new questions about their impact on local wind flow conditions and the wind energy harvesting potential. The focus of this study is ...
Refinement of Individual Tree Detection Results Obtained from Airborne Laser Scanning Data for a Mixed Natural Forest
(MDPI, 2022)
Numerous semi- and fully-automatic algorithms have been developed for individual tree detection from airborne laser-scanning data, but different rates of falsely detected treetops also accompany their results. In this ...
Advancing traditional strategies for testing hydrological model fitness in a changing climate
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
Mitigation of adverse effects of global warming relies on accurate flow projections under climate change. These projections usually focus on changes in hydrological signatures, such as 100-year floods, which are estimated ...
Shake‑table testing of a stone masonry building aggregate: overview of blind prediction study
(Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2023)
City centres of Europe are often composed of unreinforced masonry structural aggregates, whose seismic response is challenging to predict. To advance the state of the art on the seismic response of these aggregates, the ...
Instance-based transfer learning for soil organic carbon estimation
(Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022)
Soil organic carbon (SOC) is a vital component for sustainable agricultural
production. This research investigates the transfer learning-based neural
network model to improve classical machine learning estimation of ...
Numerical analysis of the in-plane behaviour of decoupled masonry infilled RC frames
(Engineering Structures, 2022)
Damage of reinforced concrete (RC) frames with masonry infill walls has been observed after many earthquakes. Brittle behaviour of the masonry infills in combination with the ductile behaviour of the RC frames makes infill ...
An Evaluation of Image Velocimetry Techniques under Low Flow Conditions and High Seeding Densities Using Unmanned Aerial Systems
(MDPI, 2020)
Image velocimetry has proven to be a promising technique for monitoring river flows using remotely operated platforms such as Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS). However, the application of various image velocimetry algorithms ...
Failure Conditions Assessment of Complex Water Systems Using Fuzzy Logic
(Springer Link, 2023)
Climate change, energy transition, population growth and other natural and anthropogenic impacts, combined with outdated (unfashionable) infrastructure, can force Dam and Reservoir Systems (DRS) operation outside of the ...
