Thermal integrity testing of cast in situ piles: An alternative interpretation approach
(
SAGE Publications Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Integrity testing of deep cast in situ concrete foundations is challenging due to the intrinsic nature of how these foundations are formed. Several integrity test methods have been developed and are well established, but ...
Deep Learning Framework for Liver Segmentation from T1-Weighted MRI Images
(
Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI)
, 2023 , Article)
The human liver exhibits variable characteristics and anatomical information, which is often ambiguous in radiological images. Machine learning can be of great assistance in automatically segmenting the liver in radiological ...
A framework for the analysis of damage and recovery characteristics of asphalt mixtures
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2020 , Article)
This study presents two approaches for evaluating damage and recovery characteristics of asphalt mixtures. The first approach focuses on determining damage by extracting recoverable viscoelastic strain that has no damage ...
