Fuzzy Logic Integrated Genetic Programming for Optimization and Design
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A fuzzy logic integrated genetic programming (GP) based methodology is proposed to increase the performance of the GP based approach for structural optimization and design. Fuzzy set theory is employed to deal with the ...
Genetic Programming-Based Approach for Structural Optimization
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The main purpose of this paper is to introduce genetic programming into civil engineering problem solving. This paper describes a genetic programming-based approach for simultaneous sizing, geometry, and topology optimization ...
Hybrid Genetic Programming with Local Search Operators for Dynamic Force Identification
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper, based on the Darwinian and Lamarckian evolution theories, three hybrid genetic programming (GP) algorithms integrated with different local search operators (LSOs) are implemented to improve the search ...
Electromechanical Impedance-Based Structural Health Monitoring with Evolutionary Programming
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An impedance-based structural health monitoring technique is presented. By analyzing the in-plane vibration of a thin lead–zirconate–titanate (PZT) patch, the electromechanical impedance of the PZT patch is predicted. The ...
Integrated Optimization of Control System for Smart Cylindrical Shells Using Modified GA
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper, modeling of the vibration of cylindrical shell components of space structures incorporating piezoelectric sensor/actuators (S/As) for optimal vibration control is proposed and formulated. The parameters of ...
Generic Impedance-Based Model for Structure-Piezoceramic Interacting System
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper describes a generic impedance-based model for predicting the electromechanical (EM) impedance of one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) structure-piezoceramic (PZT) interacting systems. The vibration of ...
Experimental and Numerical Analysis of Prestressed Prefabricated Self-Centering IMS Composite Frame Joints
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Full-scale model tests of three integral prestressed prefabricated frame structure system (IMS) prestressed friction joint specimens under low cyclic loading were conducted to explore the factors influencing the hysteretic ...
Closure to “A Displacement Equivalence-Based Damage Model for Brittle Materials, Part I: Theory; Part II: Verification” (2005, ASME J. Appl. Mech., 72, pp. 306–307)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We would like to highlight that one of the contributions of our papers 12 is to propose the assumption of displacement equivalence and the other contribution is to apply this assumption to ...
Effects of Biaxial Bending and Axial Restraint on Hybrid Fiber Reinforced High-Performance Concrete Columns at Elevated Temperatures
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The presence of axial restraint and biaxial load eccentricity plays a vital role in the behavior and design of columns under fire conditions. Because there is limited research on these two parameters, an experimental study ...
BIM-Based and IoT-Driven Smart Tracking for Precast Construction Dynamic Scheduling
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Precast construction offers multiple benefits, encompassing heightened productivity, an enhanced working environment, and significant waste reduction. Timely delivery of precast components (PCs) is of paramount importance ...
