Abstract: The intelligent management of infrastructure is crucial to maintain structural stability. Although much more attention has been paid to the development of intelligent systems, the cooperation and efficiency of different ...

Abstract: Rock burst is one of the most hazardous problems that is encountered during tunnel excavation. However, less research concerns tunnel excavation in an interbedded layer with alternating strong and soft layers. In this ...

Abstract: Real-time monitoring of underwater construction is important for structural stability. To prevent tunnel disasters, an integrated analysis framework for tunnel stability evaluation was proposed using real-time monitoring ...

Abstract: In geotechnical engineering, fracture fillings or rough fracture surfaces often resist deformation and enhance the equivalent elastic moduli of fractured rock masses. In this study, the normal stiffness and shear stiffness ...

Abstract: For tunneling in squeezing rock, large deformation induced by tunnel excavation and creep of squeezing rock has been a great challenge during construction. This large deformation would keep growing for a long time, ...

Abstract: Fatigue cracks were found on a series of end-coped crane runway girders after 14 years of service in a steel mill building in China. Two typical crane runway girders with different spans were studied in this paper. Finite ...
