Warped matrix-variate Gaussian processes with structured kernels for multi-step-ahead driving behaviour prediction by Seiya Takano, Tomohiko Jimbo

“…However, the proposed method can handle a matrix with rows for the time of day and columns for the day of the week, which facilitates the production of a one-week-ahead predictive distribution through a single calculation. Furthermore, the proposed method directly captures the periodicity using separate kernels to express the characteristics of rows and columns, making the parameters easier to interpret. …”

Analysis on Flexural Capacity of Square Steel Tube Truss Concrete Beams with Grouted Chords by Kun Wang, Zhiyu Zhu, Huihui Luo, Ahmed Ahmad Omar

“…Accordingly, the results indicated that the steel tubes of the upper chords in the composite beams cannot get yield for full sections due to the structural requirements; the steel tube of the lower chords will be the first to reach fully yielding and the upper concrete crushed subsequently, showing a failure mode analogous to that of the under-reinforced concrete beam; the steel ratio of lower chords is the primary factor affecting the flexural capacity of the normal section among the parameters; the calculation from the proposed design formulae for the flexural capacity of normal section is in agreement with the tests and simulations. …”
