One of the biggest challenges we face for large-scale geo-spatial image and raster data management and processing is the huge volume of such data. Numerous remote sensors of different types on various platforms are collecting real time data about the Earth and our environment for different purposes on a daily basis. Individual images can be very small but they can be huge in the scale of teraby...

GridletGIS was established as a result of a workshop held at the National Institute of Environmental e-Science entitled GridGIS (Cambridge, UK, 15th-16th December 2003). Like minded people came together during one of the break-out sessions in response to the perception that much, if not all, of the emerging field of distributed, and particularly grid, computing is concerned with manipulating la...

In determining position and attitude, vision navigation via real-time image processing of data collected from imaging sensors is advanced without a high-performance global positioning system (GPS) and an inertial measurement unit (IMU). Vision navigation is widely used in indoor navigation, far space navigation, and multiple sensor-integrated mobile mapping. This paper proposes a novel vision n...

Self Compacting Concrete offers many advantages over conventional concrete. It is mainly used when a great fluidity is required (For example sections with high percentage of reinforcement). Self Compacting Concrete has excellent applicability for elements with complicated shapes and congested reinforcement. An experimental study was made on cylinders and specimens with square sections confined ...

The objective of this research is to predict how strip footings behave when rested on an undrained clay layer enhanced using a top replacement with and without geo-grid. study was conducted in several stages, including collecting load-settlement curves from "Finite Element Method" (FEM) models different strengths, thicknesses, axial stiffnesses the These were then idealized hyperbolic model, pa...

Suitability evaluation of urban construction land based on geo-environmental factors is the process of determining the fitness of a given tract of land for construction. This process involves a consideration of the geomorphology, geology, engineering geology, geological hazards, and other geological factors and is the basis of urban construction land planning and management. With the support of...

The convergence-confinement method, based on the analysis of the stress and strain state that develops in the rock around a circular tunnel, has been presented in this study with the two analytical solutions that have been most frequently used in recent years. Problem statement: Thanks to the increased power of electronic processors and the spread of numerical methods, the role of the convergen...

Abstract Electrification of the transportation sector provides several advantages in favor climate protection and a shared economy. At same time, rapid growth electric vehicles also demands innovative solutions to mitigate risks low-voltage network due unpredictable charging patterns vehicles. This article conceptualizes stochastic reinforcement learning agent that learns optimal policy for reg...
