This study presents empirical ground-motion models (GMMs) for estimating Arias intensity
(IA), cumulative absolute velocity (CAV) and significant ground-motion duration (D5–75 and …

In recent years, there has been enormous development in soft computing, especially
artificial intelligence (AI), which has developed robust methods for solving complex …

Given the significant momentum of developing water quality models to simulate water quality
variables and support decision-making, the literature recognizes the importance of …

In this study, we utilize two metaheuristic algorithms, particle swarm optimization, and
biogeography-based optimization, to select and scale ground motion (GM) records for use in …

In this study, two types of shallow foundations, the isolated and combined footing, are
optimized to minimize the construction cost using the Salp Swarm Algorithm (SSA) and the …

Groundwater is an essential water source, becoming more vital due to shortages in
available surface water resources. Hence, monitoring groundwater levels can show the …

The unit hydrograph for a watershed plays a significant role in predicting the flood
hydrographs of any duration precipitation event, which can be used to calculate the peak …

How to choose the best number of exercises reasonably is the key to improve the learning
efficiency in piano learning, but how to effectively optimize the practice of students is still an …
