Ship target identification is of great significance in both military and civilian fields. Many methods have been proposed to identify the targets using tracks information. However, most of existing studies can only identify two or three types of targets,...

The mean sea level rising predicted for this century and the following centuries will make necessary to protect most of the human properties located on the coast. One of the alternatives is the construction of slope breakwaters along hundreds of kilomete...

For model verification and validation (V & V) in computational mechanics, a hypothesis test for the validity check (HTVC) is useful, in particular, with a limited number of experimental data. However, HTVC does not address how type I and II errors ca...

Local scour is a dynamic process evolving during the lifetime of bridges as a result of the changes in hydrologic and hydraulic conditions. Current approaches for scour risk assessment are generally based on the evaluation of the equilibrium scour depth ...

Normally, the average of the horizontal-to-vertical (H/V) ratios of the 5% damped response spectra of ground motions is used to classify the site of strong-motion stations. In these cases, only the three-orthogonal as-recorded acceleration components are...
