We investigate the role of settlement in a dynamic model of a payment system where the ability of participants to perform certain welfare-improving transactions is subject to random and unobservable shocks. In the absence of settlement, the full information first-best allocation cannot be supported due to incentive constraints. In contrast, this allocation is supportable if settlement is introd...

To study the influence of shield excavation on surrounding soil, and to control subway tunnel surface settlement deformation buildings, it is necessary additional stress soil caused by law settlement. Combined with a construction project tunnel, this article uses Mindlin solution in elastic mechanics obtain three-dimensional calculation formulas for thrust cutter head displacement field frictio...

The global mussel aquaculture industry uses specialised spat catching and nursery culture ropes made of multi-filament synthetic and natural fibres to optimise settlement and retention of mussels for on-growing. However, the settlement ecology and preferences of mussels are poorly understood and only sparse information exists in a commercial context. This study quantified the settlement prefere...

A static and a dynamic analysis model are separately established using ABAQUS finite element program to study the mechanical properties of track structure and running stability and safety of the vehicle under the condition that uneven settlement of bridge piers exists. The static model is aimed at studying the effects caused by uneven settlement alone and the dynamic one is for the effects indu...

Traditional methods of settlement prediction of shallow foundations on granular soils are far from accurate and consistent. This can be attributed to the fact that the problem of estimating the settlement of shallow foundations on granular soils is very complex and not yet entirely understood. Recently, artificial neural networks (ANNs) have been shown to outperform the most commonly used tradi...

Predicting the maximum ground subsidence (Smax) in construction of soil pressure balanced shield tunnel, particularly on soft foundation soils, is essential for safe operation and to minimize possible risk damage urban areas. Although some research has been done, this issue not solved because its complexity many other influencing factors. Due increasing accuracy machine learning(ML) predicting ...
