Damage Detection in Structural Health Monitoring using Hybrid Convolution Neural Network and Recurrent Neural Network
The process of damage identification in Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) gives us a lot of practical information about the current status of the inspected structure. The target of the process is to detect damage status by processing data collected from sensors, followed by identifying the difference between the damaged and the undamaged states. Different machine learning techniques have been applied to attempt to extract features or knowledge from vibration data, however, they need to learn prior knowledge about the factors affecting the structure. In this paper, a novel method of structural damage detection is proposed using convolution neural network and recurrent neural network. A convolution neural network is used to extract deep features while recurrent neural network is trained to learn the long-term historical dependency in time series data. This method with combining two types of features increases discrimination ability when compares with it to deep features only. Finally, the neural network is applied to categorize the time series into two states - undamaged and damaged. The accuracy of the proposed method was tested on a benchmark dataset of Z24-bridge (Switzerland). The result shows that the hybrid method provides a high level of accuracy in damage identification of the tested structure

Multi-level damage detection using a combination of deep neural networks
In recent years, bridge damage identification using a convolutional neural network (CNN) has become a hot research topic and received much attention in the field of civil engineering. Although CNN is capable of categorizing damaged and undamaged states from the measured data, the level of accuracy for damage diagnosis is still insufficient due to the tendency of CNN to ignore the temporal dependency between data points. To address this problem, this paper introduces a novel hybrid damage detection method based on the combination of CNN and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) to classify and quantify different levels of damage in the bridge structure. In this method, the CNN model will be used to extract the spatial damage features, which will be combined with the temporal features obtained from Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) model to create the enhanced damage features. The combination successfully strengthened the damage detection capability of the neural network. Moreover, deep learning is also improved in this paper to process the acceleration-time data, which has a different amplitude at short intervals and the same amplitude at long intervals. The empirical result on the Vang bridge shows that our hybrid CNN-LSTM can detect structural damage with a high level of accuracy

Effects of Internal Factors on Financial Performance of Listed Construction-Material Companies: The Case of Vietnam
The research aims to assess internal factors affecting to financial performance so that feasible suggestions could be provided for construction-material firms which are currently listing in the stock market of Vietnam. The authors applied regression for panel data which collected from 30 listed construction-material firms. The findings show that firms’ financial performance are positively affected by the firms’ size, capital structure, capitalization expenditure, and accounts receivable management. The research results also reflect positive relation between firms’ financial performance and business risk. Upon the research results we recommend that the changes should be focus on improving policies about capitalization expenditure; reasonable capital structure and management of inventories. Keywords: financial performance, construction-material, listed firms, Vietna
Model Updating for Large-Scale Railway Bridge Using Grey Wolf Algorithm and Genetic Alghorithms
This paper proposes a novel hybrid algorithm to deal with an inverse problem of a large-scale truss bridge. Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) Algorithm is a well-known and widely applied metaheuristic algorithm. Nevertheless, GWO has two major drawbacks. First, this algorithm depends crucially on the positions of the leading Wolf. If the position of the leaderis far from the best solution, the obtained results are poor. On the other hand, GWO does not own capacities to improve the quality of new generations if elements are trapped into local minima. To remedy the shortcomings of GWO, we propose a hybrid algorithm combining GWO with Genetic Algorithm (GA), termed HGWO-GA. This proposed method contains two key features (1) based on crossover and mutation capacities, GA is first utilized to generate the high-quality elements (2) after that, the optimization capacity of GWO is employed to seek the optimal solutions. To assess the effectiveness of the proposed approach, a large-scale truss bridge is employed for model updating. The obtained results show that HGWO-GA not only provides a good agreement between numerical and experimental results but also outperforms traditional GWO in terms of accuracy
Determinants Influencing Quality of Finance and Accounting Education: The Case Study of Vietnam
The quality of undergraduate program in general and in the discipline of finance and accounting in particular is one of the big concerned issues in society. For a long time, Vietnam has trained a large number of bachelor students which exceeds the real needs, especially in the field of economics. In the dimension of this study, we investigate the impact levels of determinants on quality of financial and accounting education in the context of the 4th Industrial Revolution. Data were collected by receiving questionnaire feedbacks from students of Trade Union University of Vietnam. By employing the tests of Cronbach’s Alpha, exploratory factor analysis and multivariate regression, the results show that four determinants including (i) role of trainers, (ii) innovation of the training program, (iii) applying information technology; (iv) and social behavior skills of students influence positively the quality of education in the field of finance and accounting. Keywords: Education quality, finance and accounting, Vietna

From Negative Aspects and Black Aspects of Vietnam Education to Lessons for Social Sciences Students
In our research, we level strong criticism at the State Professor Council in Vietnam, using the case of Tran Van Tho and other members as a representative illustration of their efforts to impede or restrict the growth of the nation's scientific community. We also do not place enough importance on the publication of bogus news online by various Vietnam publications (Thanhnien.vn and Tuoitre.vn), despite the fact that it may lead to confusion, as well as problems and concern in the community. In addition, we oppose the excessive tuition fees and other expenses that have been imposed by Banking University HCM city Vietnam and other institutions in HCM city in recent years, which have caused difficulties for families, parents, students, and society as a whole. In addition, we use these problematic aspects of the education system in Vietnam as a case study to instruct students majoring in social sciences. After that, the authors apply a strategy based on the laws of Malaysia in order to solve the problem of fake news published in the newspapers tuoi tre and thanh nien in Vietnam throughout the period 2015-2022. After the case discussion that was offered earlier, the authors assess the opinions of President Ho Chi Minh on publishing activities for the purpose of better teaching pupils. This is not the least of the authors' contributions
