Stability analysis of concrete gravity basestructures in rocking motion under wave effect

Given the worldwide industry progress in the construction of massive concrete structures, it would be a good idea to use concrete gravity base structures (GBS).In this regard, better understanding of thesestructuresregardingtheiradvantages and disadvantages in offshore areas seems necessary.The present study employed MacCammy-Fuchs method, which is based on the size of the structure to the wave...

UNCERTAINTY ANALYSIS OF STABILITY OF GRAVITY DAMS USING THE FUZZY SET THEORY

This paper introduces a methodology for considering the uncertainties in stability analysis of gravity dams. For this purpose, a conceptual model based on the fuzzy set theory and Genetic Algorithm (GA) optimization is developed to be coupled to a gravity dam analysis model. The uncertainties are represented by the fuzzy numbers and the GA is used to estimate in what...

Software Complexity: Toward a Unified Theory of Coupling and Cohesion

Knowledge work is generally regarded as involving complex cognition, and few types of knowledge work are as important in the modern economy as software engineering (SE). A large number of measures have been developed to analyze software and its concomitant processes with the goals of evaluating, predicting and controlling its complexity. While many effective measures can be used to achieve thes...
