Q4:文章是如何验证和解决问题的?

  1. Introduction stress-strain of behaviours soils show high nonlinearity soli behaviour model base on mechanical hypotheses(elasticity elastoplasticity hypoplasticity) one model only for a special soil and difficult to determine NN - FFNNs -FBNNs - NANNs -RNNs LSTM can learn both the long and short_term influences
  2. Methofology
  • 2.1 LSTM deep-learning network
  • 2.2.1 data preparation: component of input data , data be normalised 0-1
  • 2.2.2 architecture determination: adptive determination method , empirical method
  • 2.2.3 optimisation method: evolutionary algorithms gradient decent(low computer cost) :batch gradient (small datasets)/ stochastic gradient descent algorithms
  1. Experiments and results

numerical to verifying the improvement of LSTM in constrast to nn

laboratory dataset to comfirm the capacity os LSTM on real soil behaviours

  • 3.1.1 numerical experiment Plaxis software; drained traixial ;100 training dataset 27testing dataset ;each 30-60steps up to 3000-6000 pairs
  • 3.1.2 laboratory test sourced from Lee and Seed
  • 3.2 modelling details three model : FFNN,FBNN,LSTM
  • 3.3.1 numerical experiments LSTM outperform the feedback and feedforward models in convergence rate and precision. feedback model outperformed the feedforward model LSTM was more effective / overwhelm than the other two
  1. discussion
  • 4.1 bias at low stress levels a high stess level corresponds to a higher soil strength the problem of bias at low stress levels should be examined in detail in future studies
  • 4.2 complexity of models 229 weights of ff, 241 of fb, 985 of LSTM LSTM is worth the extra computer costs
  1. conclusions
  • a new approach model the stress-strain behaviours by LSTM (Octave soft ware)
  • LSTM outperformed in the precision and convergence rate
  • LSTM had excellent performance on the measured stress-strain bahaviours
  • bias at low stress is a common problem
