Physical and Mechanical Properties of Gypsum-Like Rock Materials by Sijiang Wei, Chongyang Wang, Yushun Yang, Meng Wang

“…In the process of tunnel construction, gypsum rock is often encountered, and the volume of gypsum rock expands when encountering water, which is easy to cause the occurrence of rock fall, collapse, and other disasters, bringing serious challenges to the safe construction of the tunnel. Therefore, in this paper, four groups of samples under different moisture content are tested by ultrasonography, uniaxial compression, conventional triaxial compression, Brazilian splitting, X-ray diffraction, and SEM, and then the physical and mechanical properties of gypsum rock are studied, and the conclusion is as follows: the density of the water saturated sample, and the longitudinal wave velocity of the natural sample are the highest. …”

S³DR-Det: A Rotating Target Detection Model for High Aspect Ratio Shipwreck Targets in Side-Scan Sonar Images by Quanhong Ma, Shaohua Jin, Gang Bian, Yang Cui, Guoqing Liu, Yihan Wang

“…., inconsistency between target and anchor frame, inconsistency between classification features and regression features, and inconsistency between rotating frame quality and label assignment strategy. In this paper, to address the discrepancies in the above three aspects, we propose the Side-scan Sonar Dynamic Rotating Target Detector (S³DR-Det), which is a model with a dynamic rotational convolution (DRC) module designed to effectively gather rotating targets’ high-quality features during the model’s feature extraction phase, a feature decoupling module (FDM) designed to distinguish between the various features needed for regression and classification in the detection phase, and a dynamic label assignment strategy based on spatial matching prior information (S-A) specific to rotating targets in the training phase, which can more reasonably and accurately classify positive and negative samples. …”
