The elitist strategy was used to improve the speed of the convergence. After that, the modified genetic algorithm was applied to reassess the coefficients of the regression model and a genetic regression model was set up. As an example, a slotted gravity dam in the Northeast of China was introduced. The computational results show that the genetic regression model can solve the under-fitting problems perfectly.展开更多

An experimental structure bonded with lead zirconate titanate piezoelectric ceramic(PZT) sensors is developed. These bonded sensors are employed to monitor load variations and transient impacts in the structure.

Furthermore, the attenuation law of dy- namic compaction vibration in fill foundation of the loess area under different tamping energy and how to determine safe distance of dynamic compaction construction are studied. And then the quantitative relationship between acceleration and vibration source in new campus project site is presented. We derive the evaluation method that dynamic compaction construction affects adjacent buildings by contrasting with the existing standards and norms. The monitoring results show that isolation trench makes the amplitude attenuation of the horizontal velocity of dynamic compaction vibration reach above 75%, and the safe dis- tance be 30 m under the tamping energy of 6 000 kN · m. Therefore, isolation trench is better for vibration reduction under dynamic compaction construction.展开更多
