Differential Dynamic Programming for Estuarine Management
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A differential dynamic programming (DDP) procedure is applied to solve both linear and nonlinear estuarine-management problems to determine the optimal amount of freshwater inflows into bays and estuaries to maximize fishery ...
Precise Control Survey for Erecting the Steel Pylons of the Third Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge, China: Case Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The third Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge is a steel pylon cable stayed bridge. Such a structure is new in China and therefore brings new challenges to the work of control surveys. This paper describes the survey methods used ...
Robust Algorithm for Registration of Building Point Clouds Using Planar Patches
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a robust algorithm for the registration of building point clouds based on the planar features when there are no targets in the scanning process. First, obtaining the normal vectors of the planes that ...
