Discovering causal models for structural, construction and defense-related engineering phenomena by M.Z. Naser

“…This paper presents one of the first works at creating causal models in the area of structural and construction engineering. To this end, this paper starts with a brief review of the principles of causality and then adopts four causal discovery algorithms, namely, PC (Peter-Clark), FCI (fast causal inference), GES (greedy equivalence search), and GRaSP (greedy relaxation of the sparsest permutation), have been used to examine four phenomena, including predicting the load-bearing capacity of axially loaded members, fire resistance of structural members, shear strength of beams, and resistance of walls against impulsive (blast) loading. …”
