Engineering behavior of rock mass is controlled by many factors, related to its nature and the environmental conditions. Determining all the parameters, ranking their weights, and clarifying their relative effects are very difficult tasks to accomplish. To overcome these difficulties, many researchers have employed soft computing methods in rock mechanics engineering. The soft computing methods have taken an important role in rock mechanics, and their abilities to address uncertainties, insufficient information and ambiguous linguistic expressions stand out in treating complex natural rock mass. This chapter briefly will review the development of soft computing techniques in rock mechanics engineering, especially in predicting of rock engineering classification system and mechanical properties of rock material and rock mass, determination weathering degree of rock material, evolution of rock performance, blasting and, rock slope stability.

Abstract. Evaporation plays important roles in regional water resources management,terrestrial ecological process and regional climate change. This study investigated the abilities of six different soft computing methods, Multi-layer perceptron (MLP), generalized regression neural network (GRNN), fuzzy genetic (FG), least square support vector machine (LSSVM), multivariate adaptive regression spline (MARS), adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference systems with grid partition (ANFIS-GP), and two regression methods, multiple linear regression (MLR) and Stephens and Stewart model (SS) in predicting monthly Ep. Long-term climatic data at eight stations in different climates, air temperature (Ta), solar radiation (Rg), sunshine hours (Hs), relative humidity (RH) and wind speed (Ws) during 1961–2000 are used for model development and validation. The first part of applications focused on testing and comparing the model accuracies using different local input combinations. The results showed that the models have different accuracies in different climates and the MLP model performed superior to the other models in predicting monthly Ep at most stations, while GRNN model performed better in Tibetan Plateau. The accuracies of above models ranked as: MLP, GRNN, LSSVM, FG, ANFIS-GP, MARS and MLR. Generalized models were also developed and tested with data of eight stations. The overall results indicated that the soft computing techniques generally performed better than the regression methods, but MLR and SS models can be more preferred at some climatic zones instead of complex nonlinear models, for example, the BJ, CQ and HK stations.

Abstract This paper describes a design study in which a stiffened composite wing panel is configured for a combination of performance and manufacturing related requirements. The principal focus of the paper resides in demonstrating the adaptation of newly emergent soft-computing methods for a variety of sub-tasks that constitute the design process. These sub-tasks include function approximations, modeling of processes that lack a good analytical description, and design optimization in a space that consists of a mix of integer, discrete, and continuous design variables. Soft computing techniques discussed in this context include function approximations using back-propagation neural networks, modeling of the composite panel fabrication process using evolutionary fuzzy models, and the application of genetic algorithms and immune network modeling to the optimization problem.

Abstract Various factors affect the development of social, cultural, and economic aspects of societies. One of these factors is the state of water resources. In this study, countries of the world with decreasing renewable water per capita were examined during the period 2005–2017. Specifically, 35, 5, 20, 48, 43, and 151 countries were selected from the American, Oceania, European, African, Asian continents, and the world respectively. Further, three hydro-socio-technology-knowledge indicators associated with demographic, technology, and knowledge dimensions were estimated with soft-computing methods (i.e. Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH), Radial Basis Function (RBF), and Regression Trees (R Trees)) for the world's continents). The GMDH model's performance was the best among the other soft-computing methods in estimating the hydro-socio-technology-knowledge indicators for all the world's continents based on statistical criteria (coefficient of determination (R2), root mean square error (RMSE) and mean absolute error (MAE)). The values of RMSE for GMDH models for the ratio of rural to urban population (PRUP), population density (PD), number of internet users (IU) and education index (EI) indicators equaled (0.291, 0.046, 0.127, 0.199), (0.094, 0.023, 0.174, 0.137), (0.237, 0.044, 0.166, 0.225), (0.173, 0.031, 0.126, 0.163), (0.218, 0.058, 0.142, 0.196) and (0.231, 0.049, 0.167, 0.195) for America, Oceania, Europe, Africa, Asia and the world, respectively. The results indicate that there is an interaction between socio-technology-knowledge indicators. Thus, for water resources in all continents and the world, the hydro-socio-technology-knowledge indicators can be used for proper planning and management of water resources.
