Novel Nature-Inspired Hybrids of Neural Computing for Estimating Soil Shear Strength
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)This paper focuses on the prediction of soil shear strength (SSS), which is one of the most fundamental parameters in geotechnical engineering. Consisting of 12 influential factors, namely depth of sample, percentage of ... -
A novel semantic segmentation approach based on U-Net, WU-Net, and U-Net++ deep learning for predicting areas sensitive to pluvial flood at tropical area
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Floods remain one of the most devastating weather-induced disasters worldwide, resulting in numerous fatalities each year and severely impacting socio-economic development and the environment. Therefore, the ability to ... -
Novel terrestrial haul-out behaviour by ringed seals (Pusa hispida) in Svalbard, in association with harbour seals (Phoca vitulina)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Ringed seals ( Pusa hispida ) are the most ice-associated of all Arctic pinnipeds. In the Svalbard area, this species has always given birth, moulted and rested on sea ice. In addition, much of their food has been comprised ... -
Numerical modeling of the calcination process in a cement kiln system
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The calcium carbonate decomposition into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide is a key process step in a cement kiln. The reaction requires thermal energy input, and pulverized coal is the fuel typically used for this purpose ... -
Numerical optimization of ultrasound transducers by the linearity of the phase spectrum
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)New ultrasound imaging and therapeutic modalities may require transducer designs that are not easily facilitated by conventional design guidelines and analytical expressions. This motivates the investigation of numerical ... -
Numerical solution of the Saint Venant equation for Non-Newtonian fluid
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Non-Newtonian fluid flow through a Venturi channel is studied using the Saint Venant equation. The nonlinear hyperbolic equation is numerically tricky to solve, therefore in this study, we consider the finite volume method ... -
