Predictive Modelling of Asphalt Concrete Functional Properties Using Multiple Linear Regression and Gradient Boosting

Despite therelevance of the road infrastructure, the mechanisms governing the mechanicalproperties of asphalt concrete pavements, are currently not sufficientlyunderstood. Many empirical models of different complexity are proposed in theliterature; however, (i) they all have below high (R2 =0.85) predictiveaccuracy; (ii)...

Bayesian Additive Regression Trees for data-driven RANS turbulence modelling

Turbulent flows are commonly encountered in scientific research or engineering applications and need simulations to be resolved. The Navier-Stokes equations govern the simulations of turbulent flows. One of the most common ways to solve the Navier-Stokes equations is to analyse the Reynolds averaged form (RANS). Next to the increasing...
