    Estimation of Cohesion for Intact Rock Materials Using Regression and Soft Computing Analyses
    (IOP Publishing Ltd, 2024-01-01) Koken, E.; Strzalkowski, P.; Kazmierczak, U.; Strzałkowski, P.
    Shear strength parameters such as cohesion (c) and internal friction angle (phi) are among the most critical rock properties used in the geotechnical design of most engineering projects. However, the determination of these properties is laboring and requires special equipment. Therefore, this study introduces several predictive models based on regression and artificial intelligence methods to estimate the c of different rock types. For this purpose, a comprehensive literature survey is carried out to collect quantitative data on the shear strength properties of different rock types. Then, regression and soft computing analyses are performed to establish several predictive models based on the collected data. As a result of these analyses, five different predictive models (M1-M5) were established. Based on the performance of the established predictive models, the artificial neural network-based predictive model (model 5, M5) was the most suitable choice for evaluating the c for different rock types. In addition, mathematical expressions behind the M5 model are also presented in this study to allow users to implement it more efficiently. In this regard, the present study can be declared a case study showing the applicability of regression and soft computing analyses to evaluate the c of different rock types. However, the number of datasets used in this study should be increased to get more comprehensive predictive models in future studies.

    Estimating Uniaxial Compressive Strength of Pyroclastic Rocks Using Soft Computing Techniques
    (Shahrood Univ Technology, 2024) Koken, Ekin
    In this study, several soft computing analyses are performed to build some predictive models to estimate the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) of the pyroclastic rocks from central Anatolia, Turkey. For this purpose, a series of laboratory studies are conducted to reveal physico-mechanical rock properties such as dry density (rho d), effective porosity (ne), pulse wave velocity (Vp), and UCS. In soft computing analyses, rho d, ne, and Vp are adopted as the input parameters since they are practical and cost-effective non-destructive rock properties. As a result of the soft computing analyses based on the classification and regression trees (CART), multiple adaptive regression spline (MARS), adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), artificial neural networks (ANN), and gene expression programming (GEP), five robust predictive models are proposed in this study. The performance of the proposed predictive models is evaluated by some statistical indicators, and it is found that the correlation of determination (R2) value for the models varies between 0.82 - 0.88. Based on these statistical indicators, the proposed predictive models can be reliably used to estimate the UCS of the pyroclastic rocks.

    A Novel Evaluation Methodology for Dimension Stone Quality
    (Wroclaw Univ Technology, Fac Geoengineering Mining & Geology, 2024) Koken, Ekin; Strzalkowski, Pawel; Strzałkowski, Paweł
    The physical and mechanical properties of natural stones are crucial factors in determining their quality, predicting their durability, and assessing their potential uses. In this study, a novel method is introduced to assess the quality of dimension stone using the Fuzzy logic inference system (FIS). The FIS analysis results are described as dimension stone field performance coefficient (DSFPC), which indicates the quality of dimension stones. The analysis results are also compared with different approaches, and it is concluded that the proposed FIS model can reliably be used to quantify the quality of dimension stones. The present study, in this manner, contributes to the natural stone industry by proposing a comprehensive predictive model used to quantify the dimension stone quality based on critical physicomechanical rock properties.
