Karst aquifers are unique among groundwater systems because of variable permeability and flow-path organization changes resulting from dissolution processes. Over time, changes in flow-path connectivity complicate interpretations of conduit network evolu...

Traditional 3D animation creation involves a process of motion acquisition, dubbing, and mouth movement data binding for each character. To streamline animation creation, we propose combining artificial intelligence (AI) with a motion capture system. Thi...

Sedimentation can cause numerous problems in rivers, estuaries, harbors, and coastal areas. It is therefore important to trace and model the movement of sediments. The natural physical, chemical, and biological components of the aquatic sediment generall...

The coastal zone is a fascinating place that comprises the interface between sea and land. This interface, which is both very dynamic and sensitive, has been affected by strong urban and industrial pressures, and an increase in both traffic and recreatio...

Existing calibration methods for contact parameters of soil discrete elements are primarily based on a single physical property of soil (e.g., natural accumulation angle and shear characteristics). To solve this limitation, a calibration method based on ...
