... criterion. Genetic algorithm is applied for locating the optimal profile. The optimal profiles turn out to be concave profiles but there are heaps around the toes of the slopes. Compared with plane profiles, the percentage of increase in stability factor can reach up to nearly 50%. The key geometry...

... results and the simulated results based on neural network constitutive model of limestone under different water-chemical environment. (After Chen et al. 2010). been evolved, e.g., genetic algorithm (GA) optimized NN, to approve the conventional gradient search procedures and have been proved with powerful...

... monitoring can provide the means to verify predicted response, and to check the validity of values of input parameters used in the model. The paper investigates the potential use of the Differential Evolution Genetic Algorithm (DEGA) in the back-analysis of tunnel response in order to obtain improved...

... to seek an alternative and adaptive method. Genetic algorithm is used to optimize topologies of the network. This combining algorithm, called genetic-neural net- Work algorithm briefly, is used for modeling both single dynamics process itself and unification of multiple dynamics processes. neural...
