A novel coupling model for risk analysis of swell and shrinkage of expansive soils
Risk analysis of swell and shrinkage is essential to properly evaluate engineering stability and safety of expansive soils. Herein a novel model for risk analysis of swell and shrinkage of expansive soils was proposed by means of coupling set pair analysis with stochastic simulation of triangular fuzzy numbers. A concept ofmulti-element connection number for a set pair, which consisted of measu...
متن کاملModelling the mechanical behaviour of expansive clays
A simple formalism is presented to model the behaviour of expansive clays. Two levels of structure are considered. The behaviour of the macrostructure follows the model developed for unsaturated materials by Alonso et al. [Géotechnique 40 (3) (1990) 405–430]. The behaviour of the microstructure is adapted from the work of Gens and Alonso [Can. Geotech. J. 29 (1992) 1013–1032] in order to includ...
متن کاملUnbiased Statistical Comparison of Creep and Shrinkage Prediction Models
The paper addresses the problem of selecting the most realistic creep and shrinkage prediction model, important for designing durable and safe concrete structures. Statistical methods of standard and several nonstandard types and a very large experimental database have recently been used to compare and rank the existing prediction models, but conflicting results have been obtained by various in...
متن کاملShrinkage Priors for Bayesian Prediction
We investigate shrinkage priors for constructing Bayesian predictive distributions. It is shown that there exist shrinkage predictive distributions asymptotically dominating Bayesian predictive distributions based on the Jeffreys prior or other vague priors if the model manifold satisfies some differential geometric conditions. Kullback– Leibler divergence from the true distribution to a predic...
متن کاملMultiple regression, ANN (RBF, MLP) and ANFIS models for prediction of swell potential of clayey soils
In the recent years, new techniques such as; artificial neural networks and fuzzy inference systems were employed for developing of the predictive models to estimate the needed parameters. Soft computing techniques are now being used as alternate statistical tool. Determination of swell potential of soil is difficult, expensive, time consuming and involves destructive tests. In this paper, use ...
