Abstract:The chloride diffusion coefficient (Dcl) is one of the most important characteristics of concrete durability. This study aimed to develop a prediction model for the Dcl of concrete incorporating supplemental cementitious material. The datasets of concrete containing supplemental cementitious materials (SCMs) such as tricalcium aluminate (C3A), ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS), and fly ash were used in developing the model. Five machine learning (ML) algorithms including adaptive neuro-fuzzy inferen… Show more

Section: Screening Index Interval Prediction Modelmentioning
Since there are many uncertain factors in the actual production process, reliable information cannot be obtained from point prediction results. Therefore, this paper proposes an interval prediction method to evaluate the screening index. Firstly, feature engineering algorithms are used to select the most suitable data and variables for modeling. Secondly, based on the sequential characteristics of the sintering process, the gated cycle unit (GRU) model is used to make point predictions on the indicators. then the kernel density estimation (KDE) algorithm is used to quantify the error of the index to obtain the interval prediction results, and the RandomizedSearchCV algorithm is used to optimize the parameters of the model. Finally, comparison shows that the GRU model has higher point prediction accuracy, and the KDE algorithm can better quantify the prediction error, and then obtain reliable interval prediction results. This method has guiding significance for the high-quality production of sinter.

“…Studies [157][158][159][160][161] have found that a large amount of machine-learning-based work has focused on concrete permeability resistance and the diffusion coefficient. Supervised machine learning approaches, such as SVM, RF, and ANN, are mainly used for chloride permeability and diffusion.…”
Section: Application Of Machine Learning To Chloride Penetrationsmentioning
Chloride corrosion is a key factor affecting the life of marine concrete, and surface chloride concentration is the main parameter for analyzing its durability. In this paper, we first introduce six erosion mechanism models for surface chloride ion concentration, reveal the convection effect in the diffusion behavior of chloride ions, and then introduce the corrosion mechanisms that occur in different marine exposure environments. On this basis, the analysis is carried out using empirical formulations and machine learning methods, which provides a clearer understanding of the research characteristics and differences between empirical formulas and emerging machine learning techniques. This paper summarizes the time-varying model and multifactor coupling model on the basis of empirical analysis. It is found that the exponential function and the reciprocal function are more consistent with the distribution law of chloride ion concentration, the multifactor model containing the time-varying law is the most effective, and the Chen model is the most reliable. Machine learning, as an emerging method, has been widely used in concrete durability research. It can make up for the shortcomings of the empirical formula method and solve the multifactor coupling problem of surface chloride ion concentration with strong prediction ability. In addition, the difficulty of data acquisition is also a major problem that restricts the development of machine learning and incorporating concrete maintenance conditions into machine learning is a future development direction. Through this study, researchers can systematically understand the characteristics and differences of different research methods and their respective models and choose appropriate techniques to explore the durability of concrete structures. Moreover, intelligent computing will certainly occupy an increasingly important position in marine concrete research.
