Using artificial neural networks for predicting mechanical and radiation shielding properties of different nano-concretes exposed to elevated temperature

Alaa A. El-Sayed et al.

Summary: This study investigates the effects of adding different Nano additives on the mechanical and radiation shielding properties of concrete after exposure to elevated temperatures. The hybrid mix of Nano alumina and Carbon Nanotubes showed the best enhancement in both properties. An Artificial Neural Network (ANN) was developed to predict the values of mechanical strength and radiation attenuation coefficient for different concrete mixtures. The ANN showed a high agreement with experimental results and had better predictive capability than regression analysis.

Prediction of mechanical and durability characteristics of concrete including slag and recycled aggregate concrete with artificial neural networks (ANNs)

Mostafa Amiri et al.

Summary: This research aims to create an artificial neural networks model to forecast the mechanical and durability properties of waste included concrete and evaluates the effects of ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) and recycled concrete aggregate on concrete's mechanical characteristics and long-term durability. The findings suggest that the presence of recycled aggregate deteriorates the mechanical characteristics of concrete, but slag can mitigate these detrimental effects. Additionally, the use of recycled aggregate increases the chloride ion migration rate in concrete, while slag enhances hydration products and reduces this adverse impact.

Compressive strength of rubberized concrete: Regression and GA-BPNN approaches using ultrasonic pulse velocity

Yifan Zhang et al.

Summary: Rubberized concrete is a solution for waste rubber disposal, and non-destructive testing techniques are used to assess existing concrete structures. Researchers have proposed relationships between UPV and compressive strength of rubberized concrete. This study introduces regression and GA-BPNN models to estimate compressive strength with UPV, with regression model requiring less computation work and GA-BPNN offering higher accuracy for precise estimations. Results show that all models are effective in predicting compressive strength, with the pure quadratic stepwise regression model having the best performance.

Influence of carbon fiber on the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of high-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites

Gijoon Park et al.

Summary: This study investigated the mechanical performance, electrical conductivity, and electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of high-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composite (HPFRCC) produced by incorporating carbon fibers. The results showed that the AC resistivity of the HPFRCC mixed with carbon fibers was strongly associated with the applied voltage, and that the dominant factor affecting electromagnetic shielding of the HPFRCC is the amount of carbon fibers rather than the electrical conductivity resulting from continuous connection of carbon fibers.
