Examination of high strength steel design provisions : bond by Chua, Aye Neng

“…Furthermore, as yield strength of reinforcement steel embedded in concrete is equally important on the bond strength, a study is carried out using specimens data with normal strength steel and high strength steel to examine the provision of development length in each category of steel. Five international codes were used to predict the development length, and the codes provisions were compared against the experimental values. …”

Identification of electromagnetic pre-earthquake perturbations from the DEMETER data by machine learning by Xiong, Pan, Long, Cheng, Zhou, Huiyu, Battiston, Roberto, Zhang, Xuemin, Shen, Xuhui

“…This study included the analysis of satellite data spanning over six years, during which about 8760 earthquakes with magnitude greater than or equal to 5.0 occurred in the world. We discover that among these methods, a gradient boosting-based method called LightGBM outperforms others and achieves superior performance in a five-fold cross-validation test on the benchmarking datasets, which shows a strong capability in discriminating electromagnetic pre-earthquake perturbations. …”
