    • English
    Machine Learning in Geohazard Risk Prediction and Assessment: From Microscale Analysis to Regional Mapping presents an overview of the most recent developments in machine learning techniques that have reshaped our understanding of geo-materials and management protocols of geo-risk. The book covers a broad category of research on machine-learning techniques that can be applied, from microscopic modeling to constitutive modeling, to physics-based numerical modeling, to regional susceptibility mapping. This is a good reference for researchers, academicians, graduate and undergraduate students, professionals, and practitioners in the field of geotechnical engineering and applied geology.

  • Damage and Healing Mechanics of Materials

    Metals and Metal Matrix Composites
    • 1st Edition
    • George Z. Voyiadjis + 1 more
    • English
    Damage and Healing Mechanics of Materials: Metals and Metal Matrix Composites covers the fundamentals of damage mechanics, with various damage models presented coupled with elastic and elasto-plastic behavior. Experimental investigations and the related data for damage in composite materials are included, as are computational modeling and simulation methods for investigating damage and healing in various materials and structures. Healing mechanics using both scalars and more general theory based on tensor notations are discussed, as are applications of damage mechanics. Undamageable materials, the generalized method of cells, phase field modeling, cyclic plasticity concepts, and more are all also covered.

  • Carbon Fluxes and Biophysical Variables from Earth Observation

    Methods for Ecosystem Assessment
    • 1st Edition
    • Manuel Campos-Taberner + 2 more
    • English
    Carbon Fluxes and Biophysical Variables from Earth Observation: Methods for Ecosystem Assessment transforms the way remote sensing data can be used to approach monitoring of carbon fluxes (CF) and biophysical variables (BV) in ecosystem and global vegetation monitoring. In a field where these two subjects have traditionally been treated as distinct entities, this book offers an integrated exploration of CF and BV retrieval through remote sensing. It not only delves into a wide array of approaches and methodologies but also assists readers in selecting the most suitable models based on available inputs and spatiotemporal scales. Carbon Fluxes and Biophysical Variables from Earth Observation is a useful resource for Earth Observation specialists, particularly in Remote Sensing, machine learning, ecology, and plant physiology, to enhance and adapt their approaches and methodologies.
