Abstract With the advent of the big data era and the rise of Industrial Revolution 4.0, digital twins (DTs) have gained significant attention in various industries. DTs offer the opportunity to combine the physical and digital worlds and aid the digital transformation of the civil engineering industry. In this paper, 605 documents obtained from the search were first analysed using CiteSpace for literature visualisation, and an author co-occurrence network, a keyword co-occurrence network, and a keyword clustering set were obtained. Next, through a literature review of 86 papers, this paper summarises the current status of DT More >

Abstract Pavement crack detection plays a crucial role in ensuring road safety and reducing maintenance expenses. Recent advancements in deep learning (DL) techniques have shown promising results in detecting pavement cracks; however, the selection of relevant features for classification remains challenging. In this study, we propose a new approach for pavement crack detection that integrates deep learning for feature extraction, the whale optimization algorithm (WOA) for feature selection, and random forest (RF) for classification. The performance of the models was evaluated using accuracy, recall, precision, F1 score, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC).… More >

Abstract Neutrosophic theory can effectively and reasonably express indeterminate, inconsistent, and incomplete information. Since Smarandache proposed the neutrosophic theory in 1998, neutrosophic theory and related research have been developed and applied to many important fields. Indeterminacy and fuzziness are one of the main research issues in the field of civil engineering. Therefore, the neutrosophic theory is very suitable for modeling and applications of civil engineering fields. This review paper mainly describes the recent developments and applications of neutrosophic theory in four important research areas of civil engineering: the neutrosophic decision-making theory and applied methods, the neutrosophic… More >

Abstract Peridynamics (PD) is a powerful method to simulate the discontinuous problems in civil engineering. However, it may take a lot of effort to implement the material constitutive models into PD program for solving a broad range of problems. OpenSees is an open source software which includes a versatile material library and has been widely used by researchers and engineers in civil engineering. In this context, the paper presents a simple but effective approach to integrate PD with OpenSees by using a Client-Server (CS) software integration technique, such that the existing material constitutive models in OpenSees… More >
