2021.02.22 Modelling Initial Elastic Modulus of Sand-EPS Mixtures Using Evolutionary Polynomial Regression
39th National Congress and 4th International Congress of Earth Sciences
Investigated the use of expanded polystyrene (EPS) in soil stabilization, developing an EPR-based model to predict the initial elastic modulus of sand-EPS composites through triaxial compression tests, and conducted sensitivity and parametric analyses to understand the impact of confining pressure and EPS content on compressibility behavior.

2020.04.01 A polynomial model for predicting shear wave velocity from cone penetration test data
3rd International Conference on Civil Engineering, Architecture, and Urban Management in Iran
Developed a new polynomial regression model to correlate shear wave velocity (Vs) with cone penetration test (CPT) parameters, including cone tip resistance, sleeve friction, and vertical effective stress, using a global dataset, and demonstrated its improved reliability over existing CPT-Vs correlations.
