In this paper, the accuracy of a soft computing technique is investigated for predicting solar
radiation based on a series of measured meteorological data: monthly mean minimum …

Electricity demand forecasting, as a vital tool in the electricity market, plays a critical role in
power utilities, which can not only reduce production costs but also save energy resources …

Compressive strength of concrete is one of the most determinant parameters in the design of
engineering structures. This parameter is generally determined by conducting several tests …

Shear connectors play a prominent role in the design of steel-concrete composite systems.
The behavior of shear connectors is generally determined through conducting push-out …

The behavior of concrete slabs in composite beam with C and L shaped angle shear
connectors has been studied in this paper. These two types of angle shear connectors' …

The performance of precast concrete structures is greatly influenced by the behaviour of
beam-to-column connections. A single connection may be required to transfer several loads …

The V-shaped angle shear connector is recognized as to expand certain mechanical
properties to the shear connectors, contains adequate ductility, elevate resistance, power …

In recent years the use of renewable energy including wind energy has risen dramatically.
Because of the increasing development of wind power production, improvement of the …

Wind energy has become a large contender of traditional fossil fuel energy, particularly with
the successful operation of multi-megawatt sized wind turbines. However, reasonable wind …

Predicting the compressive strength of concrete has been considered as the initial phase
across the cement production processing. The current study has focused on the integration …
