Shallow depth of the tunnel excavation response research based on CRD method
AbstractMost bids of Dalian Metro are carried out with shallow tunneling method. However, for the section of Xianggong Street Station of Line 2, the geologic condition, which is mainly composed of strong-weathered rock, is so poor that it brings great difficulties in tunnel excavation. To solve the problem of stability of surrounding rock, numerical simulation and field monitoring are used to analysis the displacement field, stress field and plastic zone in every step of construction which use CRD method and also though the contrast of both consequence, The safety of the construction process has been studied and analyzed. The result not only has important guiding meaning after the construction of the tunnel, but also provides the reference for the design and construction of similar projects
Approximated Prompt Tuning for Vision-Language Pre-trained Models
Prompt tuning is a parameter-efficient way to deploy large-scale pre-trained
models to downstream tasks by adding task-specific tokens. In terms of
vision-language pre-trained (VLP) models, prompt tuning often requires a large
number of learnable tokens to bridge the gap between the pre-training and
downstream tasks, which greatly exacerbates the already high computational
overhead. In this paper, we revisit the principle of prompt tuning for
Transformer-based VLP models and reveal that the impact of soft prompt tokens
can be actually approximated via independent information diffusion steps,
thereby avoiding the expensive global attention modeling and reducing the
computational complexity to a large extent. Based on this finding, we propose a
novel Approximated Prompt Tuning (APT) approach towards efficient VL transfer
learning. To validate APT, we apply it to two representative VLP models, namely
ViLT and METER, and conduct extensive experiments on a bunch of downstream
tasks. Meanwhile, the generalization of APT is also validated on CLIP for image
classification. The experimental results not only show the superior performance
gains and computation efficiency of APT against the conventional prompt tuning
methods, e.g., +6.6% accuracy and -64.62% additional computation overhead on
METER, but also confirm its merits over other parameter-efficient transfer
learning approaches

Prevalence and related factors of epilepsy in children and adolescents with cerebral palsy: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Objective: To study the worldwide prevalence and associated factors of epilepsy in children and adolescents with Cerebral Palsy (CP) and to analyze the differences between various subgroups.
Method: We identified all potential studies on the prevalence of epilepsy in children and adolescents with CP from PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase. The search time was from the establishment of the database to November 2022. Randomized effects meta-analysis models were used to calculate the prevalence of epilepsy in CP. Subgroup analysis and meta-regression were utilized to further explore heterogeneity between articles and prevalence disparities between subgroups. The funnel plot and Egger’s test were used to investigate potential publication bias. Results: Seventy-two articles, comprising 53,969 children and adolescents with CP, were included in this study. The results indicated a total epilepsy prevalence of 38.0% (95% CI: 34.8%–41.2%) in CP. The prevalence of epilepsy was 46.4% (95% CI: 41.4%–51.5%) in clinical sample-based studies and 31.6% (95% CI: 28.7%–34.5%) in population-based studies. Meta-regression demonstrated that the sample source, neonatal seizure, family history of epilepsy, EEG or cranial imaging abnormalities, intellectual/cognitive impairment, and topographical types of CP were heterogeneous contributors to the epilepsy prevalence in CP. Conclusion: Approximately one-third of children and adolescents with CP have epilepsy, and the sample source can significantly impact the total prevalence of epilepsy. Neonatal seizures, family history of epilepsy, EEG abnormalities, cranial imaging abnormalities, severe intellectual disability, and quadriplegia may be contributing factors to epilepsy comorbid in CP. Further study is required to verify the strength of these associations with epilepsy. This study aids in identifying the clinical characteristics of young people with CP at risk of developing epilepsy, which may assist clinicians in the early prevention and diagnosis of epilepsy within this population
Cut-Through Fractured Seepage Properties and Numerical Simulation of Sandstone after Different Temperature Treatments
To explore the seepage characteristics of cut-through fractured rocks after different temperatures, sandstone in the Hunan area was selected as the research object. First, the influence degree of different temperatures on the permeability of fractured sandstone was studied, and the permeability variation of fractured sandstone with net confining pressure was revealed. The test data was nonlinearly fitted to prove that the relationship between permeability and net confining pressure conforms to the characteristics of the negative exponential function. Second, the macroscopic fractured state of sandstone after different temperature treatments was analyzed, and it is concluded that the inclination angle of the fracture surface decreases with the applied thermal temperature, the fracture surface gradually develops into a single shear failure surface, and the damage degree becomes more and more serious. Finally, the theoretical formula for the calculation of fractured seepage was introduced, and the FLAC3D embedded fish language was used to compile the seepage-stress coupling calculation program of the fractured sandstone after different temperature treatments. Numerical calculations were carried out based on samples with different fracture angles of fractured sandstone, and the calculated values were in good agreement with the test results. The research results can provide guiding significance for the research on the influence of high temperature in fire tunnel on the evolution of permeability of surrounding rock fissures
Creep mechanical behavior and damage model of layered slate under combined thermal-hydraulic-mechanical action
The long-term stability of the surrounding rock of geothermal wellbore traversing groundwater and layered rock formations is commonly influenced by the combined effects of thermal, hydraulic, and mechanical factors. In order to mitigate the collapse risk associated with traversing layered rock formations in geothermal wellbore surroundings, this study examines the influence of thermal-hydraulic-mechanical interactions on the creep mechanical characteristics of layered shale. The objective is to provide an assessment of its long-term stability and risk profile. This study focuses on analyzing the creep behavior of layered shale under these combined influences. A nonlinear creep damage model is developed, considering high temperature, pore water pressure, and bedding plane effects through the incorporation of a variable-order fractional element and statistical damage. The variations in model parameters are examined. The findings indicate a gradual decrease in creep mechanical parameters with increasing water pressure and temperature. Additionally, anisotropic behavior is observed in the creep parameters across different angles. The proposed creep damage model shows good agreement with experimental curves, with the fitted parameters exhibiting a linear function relationship with temperature
Coupled Hydrologic-Mechanical-Damage Analysis and Its Application to Diversion Tunnels of Hydropower Station
Since the traditional model cannot sufficiently reflect the multifield coupling problem, this paper established an elastoplastic stress-seepage-damage analysis model considering the seepage field, stress field, and damage field. Simultaneously, the elastoplastic damage model involves many parameters and is difficult to determine. An inverse analysis program is compiled based on the differential evolution algorithm, and the surrounding rock damage parameters are inverted. Finally, the elastoplastic stress-seepage-damage coupling program and the damage parameter displacement back analysis program is compiled using C++ language. Then, the program is used to calculate the coupling problem of tunnel elastoplastic stress-seepage-damage. The results show that the proposed elastoplastic damage constitutive model can well describe the mechanical behavior of rock. The computational procedure can also simulate practical engineering problems, which can provide specific guidance for site construction
Study on mechanical characteristics and damage model of layered sandstone after high temperature action
Rock engineering, which includes slopes, tunnels, and mines, often encounters stratified rocks. These projects are also frequently exposed to special environments of high temperatures, such as deep underground or fire-related conditions. It is of significant importance to conduct research on the damage characteristics and constitutive models of stratified rocks under high-temperature conditions to accurately reflect the influences of rock structure characteristics, geological conditions, and load effects on the damage and deformation characteristics of rock engineering. Under five temperature conditions (20, 200, 400, 600, 800 ℃), the intact sandstone rock samples and the layered sandstone samples are subjected to high-temperature treatment, followed by triaxial compression tests. Based on existing research on statistical damage constitutive models for rocks, a high-temperature layered rock statistical damage constitutive model is established by introducing the Weibull distribution function and high-temperature, bedding, and load coupling damage variables, under the condition that the microelement strength follows the Drucker-Prager (D-P) criterion. The results indicate that the peak strength, damage threshold, elastic modulus, and longitudinal wave velocity show a ''U''-shaped trend with an increasing bedding angle, with an opening upwards. As the temperature increases, the anisotropy of the rock initially increases and then decreases, with obvious ductile characteristics after the temperature reaches 600 ℃. The analysis of damage threshold, stress-strain curve, and macroscopic failure morphology shows that the 60° dipping angle sandstone is prone to undergo compressive-shear failure along the weak plane of bedding, exhibiting low toughness mechanical characteristics. Theoretical curves of the statistical damage constitutive model for high-temperature rock are in good agreement with the Triaxial shear test curve of sandstone, which indicates that the constitutive model can reflect the stress-strain process of layered sandstone after high-temperature action, and verifies the applicability of the model. This model does not include unconventional mechanical parameters and can reflect the ductility, brittleness, and strength characteristics with clear physical meanings. The findings of the study can offer theoretical support for computing and numerically modeling rock mechanics after high-temperature action
