The Benínar Dam, located in Southeastern Spain, is an earth-fill dam that has experienced filtration issues since its construction 1985. Despite the installation of various monitoring systems, data collected are sparse and inadequate for dam’s lifetime. present research integrates Multi-Temporal Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (MT-InSAR) modeling to validate this dam, opening way enhanced integrated systems. MT-InSAR was proved be a reliable continuous system deformation, surpassing...
Artificial intelligence (AI) is delivering major advances in the construction engineering sector this era of building information modelling, applying data collection techniques based on urban image analysis. In study, heights were calculated from street-view imagery a semantic segmentation machine learning model. The model has fully convolutional architecture and HRNet encoder ResNexts depth separable convolutions, achieving fast runtime state-of-the-art results standard tasks. Average pilot...
Different seismic risk studies have been carried out in the Central American region to quantify human and economic losses caused by events. The appropriate use of fragility curves (FCs) allows a better approximation level performance structural system face hazards. In this respect, an inadequate selection FCs can lead notably unreliable estimation damages losses. This research contributes methodology for assessing selecting from catalog existing proposals available literature. has applied...
Abstract Assessing the seismic vulnerability of existing buildings is an essential task for management earthquake disasters. For this purpose, behaviour usually determined under assumption isolated conditions, although aggregate structures are one most common typologies found in urban centres. This study aims to investigate nonlinear static dwellings consisting grouted reinforced concrete block configurations commonly observed San José, Costa Rica. research investigates use several...
This research investigates the post-earthquake performances of structures in four rural villages Moroccan Atlas, emphasizing common construction system characteristics and design flaws that render buildings susceptible to seismic events. Village selection was based on a prior multispectral satellite-image study, proving effective for planning high-impact, field campaigns. The significance this resides on-site data collection, facilitating physical assessment earthquake-induced damage...
Deformation monitoring is a common practice in most of dams to ensure their structural health and safety status. Systematic frequently carried out by means geotechnical sensors geodetic techniques that, although very precise an accurate, can be time-consuming economically costly. Remote sensing are proved effective assessing deformation. Changes the structure, shell or associated infrastructures dams, including adjacent slopes, efficiently recorded using satellite Synthetic Aperture Radar...
This study analyses the variation of main physical-mechanical properties wood along longitudinal and radial directions tree for Abies alba Mill. growing in Spanish Pyrenees. Smallclear specimens were used to volumetric shrinkage (VS), density (ρ), hardness (H), bending strength (MOR), modulus elasticity (MOE), maximum compressive parallel grain (MCS) impact (K). Several models analyzed. Main trends throughout stem identified although none them could be fitted predictive statistical models....
In the Iberian Peninsula there are many masonry bridges enduring over time that require inspection and maintenance.In 2007 it was carried out a restoration project on bridge of Sant Andreu de Terri (Girona, Spain).Prior to this intervention, did not meet safety comfort requirements for crossing people walls showed loss stones material from joints.The surface cleaned replaced existing metal rail.The board replaced; waterproof longitudinal drainage pipes were installed prevent water...
The old city centers of many major cities represent a great challenge from constructive point view since the foundations buildings consist an aggregation previous constructions. This endorses thorough monitoring activities during any underground construction. capabilities persistent scatterer interferometry (PSI) can be exploited to cope with these needs. However, very challenging urban scenario rooftops are usually filled air conditioning systems and due fact that streets crowded. work...
En este trabajo se estudia la viabilidad del empleo de drones para el control deformaciones terreno y las estructuras, analizando cada caso, resolución, precisión validación con otras técnicas. Se presenta detalle técnica fotogramétrica Structure From Motion, empleada elaborar ortofotografías modelos 3D precisos sin necesidad conocer previamente posiciones ángulos incidencia. El uso puntos precisos, así como sistema integrado RTK, son factores relevantes obtención resultados alta precisión....
The Sustainable Development Goals promulgate access to sanitation and hygiene for all the end open defecation in framework of human right sanitation. Tanzania has one lowest levels sanitation, with increasing defecation. Ending been identified as a top priority reducing global inequalities WASH (water, hygiene). In this context, coordinated work NGOs, universities governments developed programme (UMATA), whose methodologies lessons learnt are ready be scaled up. This research analyses...
Ultrasound is a reliable non-destructive method commonly used to evaluate the state of piece wood. The effect moisture content (MC) on timber wave velocity, which different depending wood species, must be considered. MC adjustment factors are important if accurate and comparable results achieved. Thus, goal this study define model that allows obtaining factor predict standard velocity (12% (V12) from obtained at for two Costa Rican commercial species: Tectona grandis L.F (teak) Cupressus...
