Rockhead profile simulation using an improved generation method of conditional random field

Liang Han et al.

Summary: In this study, the conditional random field (CRF) was improved to simulate rockhead profiles. With the assistance of Bayesian theory, the proposed method utilizes measurement data and prior information to handle uncertainty. The method provides reasonable estimations of rockhead depth at various locations and reduces subjectivity in determining prior mean.

Nonparametric and data-driven interpolation of subsurface soil stratigraphy from limited data using multiple point statistics

Chao Shi et al.

Summary: A novel nonparametric, data-driven method based on multiple point statistics (MPS) is proposed to interpolate subsurface soil stratigraphy from sparse measurements. The method, which utilizes Bayesian supervised machine learning, is the first purely data-driven method for geotechnical site characterization. The effectiveness of the method is demonstrated through a simulated example and real data from a reclamation site in Hong Kong, providing accurate interpolation and quantification of uncertainty.

Geotechnical reliability-based design using generalized subset simulation with a design response vector

Yi-Jian Yang et al.

Summary: This study proposes an efficient full probabilistic design method using the advanced Monte Carlo simulation algorithm, known as generalized Subset Simulation (GSS), which introduces the concept of a design response vector to explore failure domains of different designs simultaneously. The approach determines feasible design domains for different geotechnical limit states by a single GSS run, providing significant computational savings and linking MCS-based full probabilistic design to semi-probabilistic design through back-calculating resistance factors based on failure samples.

Coupled characterization of stratigraphic and geo-properties uncertainties A conditional random field approach

Wenping Gong et al.

Summary: Characterizing site uncertainties, especially in subsurface stratigraphy and geo-properties, is a significant challenge in geological and geotechnical practice due to complexity and spatial variability. This paper proposes a conditional random field approach to couple stratigraphic and geo-property uncertainties, determining spatial correlations with two autocorrelation functions. The effectiveness of the approach is demonstrated through a case study on an offshore wind farm site in Taiwan, showcasing the method's potential for probabilistic site characterization.

Novel approach to efficient slope reliability analysis in spatially variable soils

Ze-Zhou Wang et al.

Summary: The study introduces a metamodel-based method using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) for efficient slope reliability analysis in spatially variable soils. By training CNNs with random field samples, the method can replace computationally demanding RF-FEM analyses for accurate predictions at a fraction of the cost. Results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed CNN approach in terms of computational efficiency and accuracy compared to other metamodel-based methods.

Effect of random field element size on reliability and risk assessment of soil slopes

Zhiyong Yang et al.

Summary: This study systematically investigates the influence of RFE size on statistics of factor of safety (FS) and sliding mass (SM) distribution, critical slip surfaces, reliability, and risk of slopes, showing that the RFE sizes have a relatively larger influence on the distribution of SM than that of FS, tending to overestimate slope failure probability and risk with larger RFE sizes.

Efficient slope reliability analysis and risk assessment based on multiple Kriging metamodels

Shi-Ya Huang et al.

Summary: The paper presents a multiple Kriging (MK) metamodels method to address the limitations of traditional Kriging metamodel in slope reliability analysis and risk assessment. By simultaneously establishing a Kriging metamodel for each potential slip surface and optimizing the correlation parameters globally, the MK metamodels enable efficient slope stability analysis and risk assessment. The proposed model shows improved accuracy in estimating slope failure probability and extends the application scope of Kriging based methods.

Effects of spatial variability of weak layer and seismic randomness on rock slope stability and reliability analysis

Wen-gang Zhang et al.

Summary: The research focused on the stability of rock slopes and the influence of spatial variability on slope stability, showing that the spatial variability of weak layers has a greater impact on slope stability under seismic loading than that of rock material. The influence of seismic randomness cannot be neglected in slope failure analysis.
