Prediction of Rockfill Materials’ Shear Strength Using Various Kernel Function-Based Regression Models—A Comparative Perspective
The mechanical behavior of the rockfill materials (RFMs) used in a dam’s shell must be evaluated for the safe and cost-effective design of embankment dams. However, the characterization of RFMs with specific reference to shear strength is challenging and costly, as the materials may contain particle...
