A Deep Learning-Based Approach to Enable Action Recognition for Construction Equipment by Jinyue Zhang, Lijun Zi, Yuexian Hou, Mingen Wang, Wenting Jiang, Da Deng

“…The contributions of this research are as follows: (1) the development of a comprehensive video dataset of 2,064 clips with five action types for excavators and dump trucks; (2) a new deep learning-based CEAR approach (known as a simplified temporal convolutional network or STCN) that combines a convolutional neural network (CNN) with long short-term memory (LSTM, an artificial recurrent neural network), where CNN is used to extract image features and LSTM is used to extract temporal features from video frame sequences; and (3) the comparison between this proposed new approach and a similar CEAR method and two of the best-performing HAR approaches, namely, three-dimensional (3D) convolutional networks (ConvNets) and two-stream ConvNets, to evaluate the performance of STCN and investigate the possibility of directly transferring HAR approaches to the field of CEAR.…”

Pullout Test on Fully Grouted Bolt Sheathed by Different Length of Segmented Steel Tubes by Xiaowei Feng, Nong Zhang, Guichen Li, Gangye Guo

“…Unlike axial stress distribution in bolt, the axial stress distribution in steel tube showed exponential decrease trend from tube-clamp end to bolt-clamp end; thus a series of interesting results were observed. For instance, the sequence for segments detachment had its specific order of priority; the failure form of bolting system, the load oscillation characteristics, and the final displacement were highly determined by the length of the last segment, namely, the one fixed by clamp of testing machine. …”
