The purpose of this study was to develop a model for the estimation of rock mass classification of Sarvak limestone in the Bakhtiari dam site, south-west (SW) Iran. Q system had been used as the starting point for the rock mass classification. This method was modified for sedimentary rock mass which is known as Qsrm. Because Qsrm considers a wide range of rock mass propert...

the main rock mass classification systems make use of similar rock mass parameters. due to lack of comprehensive estimation systems, determining the real specifications of jointed rocks faces some difficulties. a vast number of parameters with various degrees of impact are involved in such definitions. combination impact of all the effective parameters is to be figured out in order to come up w...

Timely and accurate identification of tree species by spectral methods is crucial for forest and urban ecological management. It has been proved that traditional methods and data cannot meet such requirements. In this study, a total of 394 reflectance spectra (between 350 and 2500 nm) from foliage branches or canopy of 11 important urban forest broadleaf species were measured in the City of Tam...

The aim of this manuscript is to present a new concept of hesitant q-rung orthopair fuzzy sets (Hq-ROFSs) by combining the concept of the q-ROFSs as well as Hesitant fuzzy sets. The proposed concept is the generalization of the fuzzy sets, intuitionistic fuzzy sets, hesitant fuzzy sets, and Pythagorean fuzzy sets as well as intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy sets (IHFSs) and hesitant Pythagorean fuz...
