1+ week, 1+ day ago   (433+ words) Weak alluvial soils are difficult to delineate where penetration-test data are sparse and stiffness varies rapidly with depth. This study presents a novel goal-attainment-optimised machine learning framework that combines multichannel analysis of surface waves (MASW) with anchor-based standard penetration test…...

3+ week, 19+ hour ago   (501+ words) Rock cohesion (c) and angle of internal friction (φ) are core parameters for rock mass stability analysis and engineering design; however, traditional triaxial tests are costly and time-consuming, limiting their availability in preliminary engineering assessments. To address this limitation, this study…...

3+ week, 2+ day ago   (323+ words) Solving the shallow-water equations (SWEs) using the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) can be computationally expensive on uniform grids. Here we develop a quadtree-based adaptive mesh refinement framework that preserves the Cartesian grid structure while enabling local refinement. A cell-centred data…...

1+ mon, 1+ week ago   (463+ words) Three-dimensional (3D) S-wave velocity field modeling is a critical task in seismic exploration, but balancing modeling accuracy and geological rationality remains challenging due to sparse observation data and inherent limitations of existing methods. To address this issue, we propose an Ordinary…...
