INFLUENCE OF FABRICS LAYERS ON STRENGTHENED REINFORCED CONCRETE SHORT CORBELS

The scour modelling in cohesive beds is relatively more complex than that in sandy beds and thus there is limited number of studies available o n local scour at bridge abutments on cohesive sediment. Recently, a good progress has been made i n the development of data-driven techniques based on artificial intelligence (AI). It has been reported that AI-based inductive modelling techniques are frequently used to model complex process due to their powerful and non-linear model structures and their increased capabilities to capture the cause and effect relationship of such complex processes. Gene Expression Programming (GEP ) is one of the AI techniques that have emerged as a powerful tool in modelling complex phenomenon into simpler chromosomal architecture.
