چکیده

pervious concrete is a concrete mixture prepared from cement, aggregates, water, little or no fines, and in some cases admixtures. the hydrological property of pervious concrete is the primary reason for its reappearance in construction. much research has been conducted on plain concrete, but little attention has been paid to porous concrete, particularly to the analytical prediction modeling of its permeability. in this paper, two important aspects of pervious concrete due to permeability and compressive strength are investigated using artificial neural networks (ann) based on laboratory data. the proposed network is intended to represent a reliable functional relationship between the input independent variables accounting for the variability of permeability and compressive strength of a porous concrete. results of the back propagation model indicate that the general fit and replication of the data regarding the data points are quite fine. the r-square goodness of fit of predicted versus observed values range between 0.879 and 0.918 for the final model; higher values were observed for the permeability as compared with compressive strength and for the train data set rather than the test data set. the findings can be employed to predict these two important characteristics of pervious concrete when there are no laboratorial data available.

PREDICTION OF COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH AND DURABILITY OF HIGH PERFORMANCE CONCRETE BY ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS

Neural networks have recently been widely used to model some of the human activities in many areas of civil engineering applications. In the present paper, artificial neural networks (ANN) for predicting compressive strength of cubes and durability of concrete containing metakaolin with fly ash and silica fume with fly ash are developed at the age of 3, 7, 28, 56 and 90 days. For building these...

Development of Artificial Neural Networks for Predicting Concrete Compressive Strength

This research work focuses on development of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) in prediction of compressive strength of concrete after 28 days. To predict the compressive strength of concrete six input parameters that are cement, water, silica fume, super plasticizer, fine aggregate and coarse aggregate are identified. A total of 639 different data sets of concrete was collected from the techni...

EVALUATION OF CONCRETE COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH USING ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORK AND MULTIPLE LINEAR REGRESSION MODELS

In the present study, two different data-driven models, artificial neural network (ANN) and multiple linear regression (MLR) models, have been developed to predict the 28 days compressive strength of concrete. Seven different parameters namely 3/4 mm sand, 3/8 mm sand, cement content, gravel, maximums size of aggregate, fineness modulus, and water-cement ratio were considered as input variables...

Prediction of Lightweight Aggregate Concrete Compressive Strength

Nowadays, the better performance of lightweight structures during earthquake has resulted in using lightweight concrete more than ever. However, determining the compressive strength of concrete used in these structures during their service through a none-destructive test is a popular and useful method.  One of the main methods of non-destructive testing in the assessment of compressive strength...

Prediction of ultimate strength of shale using artificial neural network

A rock failure criterion is very important for prediction of the ultimate strength in rock mechanics and geotechnics; it is determined for rock mechanics studies in mining, civil, and oil wellborn drilling operations. Also shales are among the most difficult to treat formations. Therefore, in this research work, using the artificial neural network (ANN), a model was built to predict the ultimat...
