Vegetation is defined as a kind of surface roughness, which reduces the capacity of the channel and retards the flow by causing loss of energy through turbulence and drag forces of moving water. In water channels, vegetation maybe used to stabilize the water surface and prevent erosion caused by concentrated water flow. In terms of channel lining, grass offers the least expensive option and is the most esthetically pleasing. Most previous studies on this subject were conducted using artificial vegetation in laboratory experiments;research conducted in canals with natural vegetation is lacking. In this study, flow characteristics through a natural grassed canal are studied. In addition, the Manning coefficient and specific energy were determined based on field measurements for both grassed and un-grassed canals. The fieldwork was conducted on Ganabia 9B, southeast of El-Mahalla El Kubra, El-Gharbia, Egypt. The average heights of vegetation in the grassed canal ranged from (28 to 100) cm and the values of flow rate range from (0.0504 to 0.1127) m(3)/s. The number of tests is 42 tests for the un-grassed canal and 205 tests for the grassed canal. This study indicated that the Manning coefficient increased with an increase in energy and momentum coefficients. The energy coefficient increased with a decrease in relative specific energy and an increase in grass height. The un-grassed canal exhibited a smaller relative specific energy than the grassed canal. The momentum coefficients for the non-grassed and grassed canals were 1.015-1.517 and 1.003-1.655, respectively. Therefore, the un-grassed canal showed a higher momentum coefficient than the grassed canal at a ratio of 0.264-1.196%. The relative specific energy was calculated in two ways: (i) using the actual energy coefficient values and (ii) setting it equal to one. As such, the error percentages of the specific energy for the grassed and un-grassed canals were 0.000105-0.1652% and 0.0048-0.2194%, respectively. The re

This paper presents a two-stage genetic mechanism for the migration-based load balance of virtual machine hosts (VMHs) in cloud computing. Previous methods usually assume this issue as a job-assignment optimization problem and only consider the current VMHs' loads;however, without considering loads of VMHs after balancing, these methods can only gain limited effectiveness in real environments. In this study, two genetic-based methods are integrated and presented. First, performance models of virtual machines (VMs) are extracted from their creating parameters and corresponding performance measured in a cloud computing environment. The gene expression programming (GEP) is applied for generating symbolic regression models that describe the performance of VMs and are used for predicting loads of VMHs after load-balance. Secondly, with the VMH loads estimated by GEP, the genetic algorithm considers the current and the future loads of VMHs and decides an optimal VM-VMH assignment for migrating VMs and performing load-balance. The performance of the proposed methods is evaluated in a real cloud-computing environment, Jnet, wherein these methods are implemented as a centralized load balancing mechanism. The experimental results show that our method outperforms previous methods, such as heuristics and statistics regression.

The fast and accurate estimation of makespan is essential for the determination of the delivery date and the sustainable development of the enterprise. In this paper, a high-quality training dataset is constructed and an adaptive ensemble model is proposed to achieve fast and accurate makespan estimation. First, both the logistics features extracted by the Pearson correlation coefficient and the new meaningful nonlinear combination features dug out by gene expression programming are first involved in this paper for constructing a high-quality dataset. Secondly, an improved clustering with elbow criterion and a resampling operation are applied simultaneously to generate representative subsets;and correspondingly, several back propagation neural network (BPNN) with the architecture optimized by genetic algorithm are trained by these subsets respectively to generate effective diverse learners;and then, a K-nearest neighbor based dynamic weight combination strategy which is sensitive to current testing sample is proposed to make full use of the learner's positive effects and avoid its negative effects. Finally, the results of effective experiments prove that both the newly involved features and the improvements in the proposed ensemble are effective. In addition, comparison experiments confirm that the proposed enhanced ensemble of BPNNs outperforms significantly the prevailing approaches, including single, ensemble and hybrid models. And hence, the proposed model can be utilized as a convenient and reliable tool to support customer order acceptance.

Catenary action plays crucial role in resisting the applied vertical load at large deformations stage in reinforced concrete (RC) structures. This paper aims to predict the catenary action capacity of RC beam-column substructures by utilizing the distinctive properties of gene expression programming (GEP). The input parameters selected for the modelling are: double-beam span-to-depth ratio, relative axial restraints stiffness, relative rotational restraints stiffness, bottom and top longitudinal reinforcement ratios, and yield strength of longitudinal rebars. A comprehensive and reliable database was collated from internationally published research articles to develop and verify the model. The GEP-based model was assessed by comparing its performance with regression based model. Various statistical indicators and external validation criteria suggested in literature proved that the model is accurate and possess high prediction and generalization capacity. Sensitivity analysis was carried out to show the contributions of the input parameters, while parametric analysis was performed to show that the proposed model is not merely a combination of the input parameters but can accurately represent the given physical system. The proposed formulation from GEP is found to be simple, robust, and easy to utilize for pre-design purposes.

For a multilayered asphalt pavement, rutting resistance of the mixture in the middle asphalt layer underneath the surface course plays a significant role in the high-tempearture stability of the whole pavement structure. Thus, evaluation of the rutting resistance of the middle asphalt layer using field cores is often necessary for project-level pavement maintenance decision-making. However, the extrusion and tests of field cores are time-consuming and destructive to pavement. To address this problem, developing an empirical model to predict the rutting resistance of the middle asphalt layer at a certain service time from historical test results may be a potential alternative. This study aims to address this challenge by using the gene expression programming (GEP) method and a database composed of a large number of multiple stress repeated load (MSRL) test results of field cores. By correlating the compound creep rate (CCR) of the middle asphalt layer from the MSRL tests to material properties, environmental and traffic parameters, field rutting depth, and middle layer age, the optimal GEP model was developed, and then compared with the conventional multiple linear regression (MLR) model built on the same database. Uncertainty analysis was also conducted through the Monte Carlo simulation (MCs). It was found that the GEP model outperformed the MLR model, with a 6%-7% higher R-square. The uncertainty analysis allows the transport agencies to estimate the reliability of their prediction and make maintenance and rehabilitation (M&R) plans according to the specified reliability target.

The efficiency of tunnel boring machines (TBMs) in underground projects has great significance for the mining and tunneling industries, demanding a reliable estimation of the TBM's performance in different geotechnical conditions. The current research work attempted to suggest an optimal predictor model of TBM performance as a reliable alternative to experimental and numerical techniques. To achieve this target, three data-mining techniques, namely neural network (NN), gene expression programming (GEP), and multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS), were employed for modelling the TBM performance, and then the most robust predictive model was optimized via a metaheuristic search method known as whale optimization algorithm (WOA). For the modelling purpose, an experimental database was compiled by performing a field assessment program in a tunneling project in Malaysia and then conducting laboratory testing on the derived rock specimens. Based on the measured experimental data, the six most influential parameters were identified and served as model inputs to predict penetration rate (PR). In order to indicate the capability of the developed GEP and NN models, a stepwise linear regression model, i.e., MARS, was designed for PR prediction as well. The predictive capacity of the constructed models was quantified using a series of statistical indices, i.e., root mean squared error (RMSE), determination coefficient (R-2) and variance account for (VAF). Based on the computed indices for testing records, both the proposed GEP and NN models (with RMSE values of 0.1882 and 0.2120 and R-2 values of 0.9058 and 0.8735, respectively) yielded more accurate predictive results than the MARS model with RMSE of 0.2553 and R-2 of 0.8346. Hence, by achieving the most robust performance compared to the rest, GEP-based model can provide a new practical equation with a high level of accuracy. In other part of this study, the six input parameters of the GEP model and its equation were

Automatic programming is a branch of artificial intelligence that presents each solution as a mathematical formula based on heuristic mechanisms. In this study, artificial bee colony expression programming (ABCEP) is presented, which is combined simultaneously with expression programming. By using expression sharing to generate new solutions, the proposed method can minimize certain deficiencies of artificial bee colony programming, such as weak convergence and high locality. A total number of 15 real-world regression benchmark functions was used to evaluate the performance of the proposed model. For comparison purposes, successful run percentage, mean best cost, convergence performance, and run time of ABCEP were compared to those of other tested automatic programming algorithms, including artificial bee colony programming, gene expression programming, genetic programming, and quick artificial bee colony programming. A Wilcoxon signed-rank test was also done to compare the behavior of the algorithms. Additionally, the accuracy of all algorithms was then evaluated using three real-world practical benchmarks. The results indicate that the predictions generated by ABCEP are better than those obtained by other control algorithms based on successful runs, mean fitness values, and convergence rate.

This study presents a comparative analysis of individual and ensemble learning algorithms (ELAs) to predict the compressive strength (CS) and flexural strength (FS) of plastic concrete. Multilayer perceptron neuron network (MLPNN), Support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), and decision tree (DT) were used as base learners, which were then combined with bagging and Adaboost methods to improve the predictive performance. In addition, gene expression programming (GEP) was used to develop computational equations that can be used to predict the CS and FS of plastic concrete. An extensive database containing 357 and 125 data points was obtained from the literature, and the eight most impactful ingredients were used in the model's development. The accuracy of all models was assessed using several statistical measures, including an error matrix, Akaike information criterion (AIC), K-fold cross-validation, and other external validation equations. Furthermore, sensitivity and SHAP analysis were performed to evaluate input variables' relative significance and impact on the anticipated CS and FS. Based on statistical measures and other validation criteria, GEP outpaces all other individual models, whereas, in ELAs, the SVR ensemble with Adaboost and RF modified with the Bagging technique demonstrated superior performance. SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) and sensitivity analysis reveal that plastic, cement, water, and the age of the specimens have the highest influence, while superplasticizer has the lowest impact, which is consistent with experimental studies. Moreover, GUI and GEP-based simple mathematical correlation can enhance the practical scope of this study and be an effective tool for the pre-mix design of plastic concrete.

The Water Quality Index (WQI) is widely used as a classification indicator and essential parameter for water resources management projects. WQI combines several physical and chemical parameters into a single metric to measure the status of Water Quality. This study explores the application of five soft computing techniques, including gene expression programming, Gaussian Process, Reduced Error Pruning Tree (REPt), Artificial Neural Network with FireFly (ANN-FFA), and combinations of Reduced Error Pruning Tree with bagging. These models aim to predict the WQI of Khorramabad, Biranshahr, and Alashtar sub-watersheds in Lorestan province, Iran. The dataset consists of 124 observations, with input variables being sulfate (SO4), total dissolved solids (TDS), the potential of Hydrogen (pH), chloride (Cl), electrical conductivity (EC), Potassium (K), bicarbonate (HCO), magnesium (Mg), sodium (Na), and calcium (Ca), and WQI as the output variable. For model creation (train subset) and model validation (test subset), the data were split into two subsets (train and test) in a ratio of 70:30. The performance evaluation parameters values of training and testing stages of various models indicate that the ANN-FFA based data-driven model performs better than the other modeling techniques applied with the values of coefficient of correlation 0.9990 & 0.9989;coefficient of determination 0.9612 & 0.9980;root mean square error 0.3036 & 0.3340;Nash-Sutcliffe error 0.9980 & 0.9979;and Mean average percentage error 0.7259% & 0.7969% for the train and test subsets, respectively. Taylor diagram results also suggest that ANN-FFA is the best-performing model, followed by the GEP model. This study introduces a novel model for predicting WQI using advanced soft computing models that have not been previously applied in this study area, highlighting its novelty and relevance. The proposed model significantly enhances predictive accuracy and efficiency, offering real-time, cost-effective WQI predi

Forecasting residual mechanical properties of hybrid fibre-reinforced self-compacting concrete (HFR-SCC) exposed to elevated temperatures

HELIYON 2024年第12期10卷 e32856页

The use of hybrid fibre-reinforced Self-compacting concrete (HFR-SCC) has escalated recently due to its significant advantages in contrast to normal concrete such as increased ductility, crack resistance, and eliminating the need for compaction etc. The process of determining residual strength properties of HFR-SCC after a fire event requires rigorous experimental work and extensive resources. Thus, this study presents a novel approach to develop equations for reliable prediction of compressive strength (cs) and flexural strength (fs) of HFR-SCC using gene expression programming (GEP) algorithm. The models were developed using data obtained from internationally published literature having eight inputs including water-cement ratio, temperature, fibre content etc. and two output parameters i.e., cs and fs. Also, different statistical error metrices like mean absolute error (MAE), coefficient of determination (R2) and objective function (OF) etc. were employed to assess the accuracy of developed equations. The error evaluation and external validation both approved the suitability of developed models to predict residual strengths. Also, sensitivity analysis was performed on the equations which revealed that temperature, water-cement ratio, and superplasticizer are some of the main contributors to predict residual compressive and flexural strength.
