  • Application possibilities of LBN for civil engineering issues

    Publication

    Bayesian Networks (BN) are efficient to represent knowledge and for the reasoning in uncertainty. However the classic BN requires manual definition of the network structure by an expert, who also defines the values entered into the conditional probability tables. In practice, it can be time-consuming, hence the article proposes the use of Learning Bayesian Networks (LBN). The aim of the study is not only to present LBN, which can...

  • State-of-the-art framework for high-speed camera and photogrammetric use in geometry evaluation of prestressed concrete failure process

    Prestressed structures are a key to the realization of the boldest architectural ideas, regardless of shape complexity, great height and large span. A characteristic feature of the prestressed structure is the better use of concrete material properties by insertion of internal forces. The internal forces are opposed to external loads effects (forces and deformations of structure). Prestressed reinforced concrete beams are characterized...
