A spatiotemporal deep learning method for excavation-induced wall deflections

Data-driven approaches such as neural networks are increasingly used for deep excavations due to the growing amount of available monitoring data in practical projects.However,most neural network models only use the data from a single monitoring point and neglect the spatial relationships between multiple monitoring points.Besides,most models lack flexibility in providing predictions for multiple days after monitoring activity.This study proposes a sequence-to-sequence(seq2seq)two-dimensional(2D)convolutional long short-term memory neural network(S2SCL2D)for predicting the spatiotemporal wall deflections induced by deep excavations.The model utilizes the data from all monitoring points on the entire wall and extracts spatiotemporal features from data by combining the 2D convolutional layers and long short-term memory(LSTM)layers.The S2SCL2D model achieves a long-term prediction of wall deflections through a recursive seq2seq structure.The excavation depth,which has a significant impact on wall deflections,is also considered using a feature fusion method.An excavation project in Hangzhou,China,is used to illustrate the proposed model.The results demonstrate that the S2SCL2D model has superior prediction accuracy and robustness than that of the LSTM and S2SCL1D(one-dimensional)models.The prediction model demonstrates a strong generalizability when applied to an adjacent excavation.Based on the long-term prediction results,practitioners can plan and allocate resources in advance to address the potential engineering issues.

Theoretical Analysis on Deflection and Bearing Capacity of Prestressed Bamboo-Steel Composite Beams

A theoretical analysis of upward deflection and midspan deflection of prestressed bamboo-steel composite beams is presented in this study.The deflection analysis considers the influences of interface slippage and shear deformation.Furthermore,the calculation model for flexural capacity is proposed considering the two stages of loading.The theoretical results are verified with 8 specimens considering different prestressed load levels,load schemes,and prestress schemes.The results indicate that the proposed theoretical analysis provides a feasible prediction of the deflection and bearing capacity of bamboo-steel composite beams.For deflection analysis,the method considering the slippage and shear deformation provides better accuracy.The theoretical method for bearing capacity matches well with the test results,and the relative errors in the serviceability limit state and ultimate limit state are 4.95%and 5.85%,respectively,which meet the accuracy requirements of the engineered application.

Modeling and Simulation of Deflected Anode Erosion in Vacuum Arcs

In vacuum switch devices, the connection bus bar out of the vacuum interrupter will generate a transverse magnetic field in the arc column region, and under the influence of this magnetic field, the whole arc column will deflect from the electrode center, thus leading to deflected anode erosion. In this paper, a two-dimensional deflected anode erosion model is established, anode erosions under different deflection distance are simulated and analyzed, and results of anode surface temperature, anode melting and surface evaporation flux are obtained. The simulation results show that the deflected heat flux density will lead to deflected distribution of anode temperature, saturated vapor pressure and vapor flux correspondingly, and the morphology of the anode melting pool has also the same deflection. Moreover, the anode center temperature and its gradient along the y direction decrease with the increase of deflection distance. On the contrary, the temperature of the anode side surface, toward which the heat flux density deflects, increases with increasing deflection distance. Related experiments also verify the correctness of the model and simulation results.

Height connection across sea by using satellite altimetry data sets,ellipsoidal heights,astrogeodetic deflections of the vertical,and an Earth Gravity Model

Islands and the mainland are separated by seas,and the distances between them might be so long that the height on the mainland cannot be exactly translated to the islands,resulting in different height systems on the mainland and the islands.In this study,we used astrogeodetic deflections of the vertical and ellipsoidal heights of points on the mainland and island near their coastlines to implement height connection across sea areas.First,the modeled gravity and modeled astrogeodetic vertical deflections of segmentation points along connecting routes over the sea between the mainland and the island were determined by Earth Gravity Model(EGM),and the ellipsoidal heights of segmentation points were determined by the satellite altimetry data sets.Second,we used a linear interpolation model to increase the precision of the vertical deflections of segmentation points.Third,we computed the geopotential difference of points between the mainland and the island using a method derived from geopotential theory and the astronomical leveling principle.Finally,we estimated the normal height of the point on the island using the geopotential-difference iterative computation approach.Using observed data of normal heights,ellipsoidal heights,and astrogeodetic vertical deflections referring to height sites in Qingdao,Shandong Province,we conducted a numerical experiment involving the normal height connection across sea regions.We determined the data of the ellipsoidal heights and gravity of segmentation points along the connecting route across the water in the numerical experiment using DTU10.The distance of the height connection across the sea was approximately 10.5 km.According to China's official leveling specifications,the experimental results met the criterion of third-class leveling precision.

Considerations of Area Parameter of the Deflection Basin on the Structural Evaluation of Flexible Pavements

By using the concept of modified structural number(SNC)and deflection measurements,a simplified calculation methodology,that permits the structural condition evaluation of an existing pavement,is being proposed.The values of SNC and the curvature parameters were first determined through simulations using the ELSYM-5 software.Deflection measurements were carried out in experimental segments of Brazilian highways.The resilient moduli of each layer were determined from backcalculation using the ELMOD program for a three-layer system.Theoretical correlation models between SNC and the basin deformation parameter were determined and later,calibrated with the results of experimental sections.Utilizing the studied models,a good correlation was found between SNC,area parameter and maximum deflection,enabling the determination of SNC through deflection measurements and assisting in the diagnostic of structural condition of asphalt pavements.

Effect of the Wick Deflection Angles on Heat Transfer Characteristics for the Flat LHP

Loop Heat Pipe(LHP)is an efficient two-phase heat transfer device,which can be used in waste heat recovery,electronics cooling,aerospace and other fields.The wick,the core component of LHP,plays an important role in its start-up and operation.In this paper,the wick fabricated by 3D printing technology had uniform and interconnected pores.In the experiment,the position of the parallel vapor removal grooves was always fixed towards the vapor outlet.When the cylindrical wick was placed in the evaporator,the rotation angle relative to its central axis could be changed,thus changing the number and shape of the pores facing the vapor removal grooves.The wick deflection angle represented its change in spatial position relative to the fixed vapor removal grooves.The effect of the wick deflection angles on the heat transfer characteristics of the flat LHP was experimentally investigated.It was found that with the change of deflection angle,the number of pores in the evaporation-oriented zone would also change,which had a significant impact on the start-up process and heat transfer performance of LHP.When the deflection angle was 30°,LHP could start fastest at a low heat load of 20 W and operate stable at a high heat load of 180 W.

系杆拱顶推施工方案及力学性能研究

为了探讨系杆拱结构的顶推方案及在顶推过程中的受力特点和设计要点,以某系杆拱桥的整体顶推施工工程为例,建立有限元模型,分析了系杆拱及导梁在不同顶推方案过程中的最值应力分布及挠度变形情况。研究结果表明:原吊杆连接方案(方案一)下,主梁及导梁变形过大,主梁应力过大,方案不可行,可通过增加梁高或者板厚来降低应力及变形,然而该法会造成外形不美观、造价偏高等情况;采用临时撑杆连接方案(方案二)时,受力得到优化,方案可行,然而靠近临时撑杆和端横梁的拱肋会出现较大应力,靠近顶推端部的两根临时撑杆中间主梁处会出现较大应力和变形;在导梁范围内,导梁端部会出现最不利挠度,需要注意控制导梁的整体刚度以及辅助墩上装置的竖向调节量,以免导梁和桥墩相撞。
