3D Reconstruction and Measurement of Surface Defects in Prefabricated Elements Using Point Clouds
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Due to a higher efficiency and lower cost, prefabricated construction is gradually gaining acceptance within the market. Laser scanning has already been adopted in civil engineering to reconstruct a three-dimensional (3D) ...
Back-Analysis Method for Stope Displacements Using Gradient-Boosted Regression Tree and Firefly Algorithm
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: It is essential to determine the properties of the rock mass surrounding underground excavations to facilitate stability analysis and engineering design. In this paper, a novel displacement back-analysis method was proposed ...
Geometric Modeling and Surface-Quality Inspection of Prefabricated Concrete Components Using Sliced Point Clouds
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Prefabricated buildings, as the development center of architectural industrialization, will produce a lot of point-cloud data in the process of information detection and management. These point-cloud data can be used for ...
Intelligent Defect Diagnosis of Appearance Quality for Prefabricated Concrete Components Based on Target Detection and Multimodal Fusion Decision
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The quality of prefabricated concrete (PC) components during the construction phase is crucial for project safety. However, manual inspections are no longer sufficient to meet the demands of efficient and large-scale quality ...
Multiagent Stochastic Dynamic Game for Smart Generation Control
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper proposes a multiagent (MA) smart generation control (SGC) scheme for the coordination of automatic generation control (AGC) in power grids with system uncertainties. Under the control performance standards, SGC ...
Multiagent Stochastic Dynamic Game for Smart Generation Control
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper proposes a multiagent (MA) smart generation control (SGC) scheme for the coordination of automatic generation control (AGC) in power grids with system uncertainties. Under the control performance standards, SGC ...
Relationship between Social Media and ASCE Code of Ethics: Review and Case-Based Discussion
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The responsibilities of civil engineers are not limited to technical practices. The responsibility borne by employers and senior members of the profession to uphold ethical behavior in their personal lives cannot be ...
Spatiotemporal Analysis of Overloaded Vehicles on a Highway Using Weigh-in-Motion Data
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The comprehensive coverage of weighing detection systems at the entry point of every highway in China in 2020 caused congestion and unsafe traffic. In this study, weigh-in-motion data on overloaded vehicles were obtained ...
Adaptive Self-Learning Fuzzy Autopilot Design for Uncertain Bank-to-Turn Missiles
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper proposes an adaptive self-learning fuzzy autopilot design for uncertain bank-to-turn (BTT) missiles due to external disturbances and system errors from the variations of the aerodynamic coefficients and control ...
Improving the Heat Transfer Performance of the Tower Molten Salt Solar Receiver With the Novel Folded Flow Tubes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The molten salt has been widely used in concentrated solar power generation as an effective high-temperature heat transfer and heat storage working fluid. However, due to the concentrating characteristic of the tower ...
