    Explainable Data-Driven Modeling for Optimized Mix Design of 3D-Printed Concrete: Interpreting Nonlinear Synergies among Binder Components and Proportions

    Yassir M. Abbas*, Abdulaziz Alsaif*

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.145, No.2, pp. 1789-1819, 2025, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2025.073088 - 26 November 2025

    Abstract The rapid advancement of three-dimensional printed concrete (3DPC) requires intelligent and interpretable frameworks to optimize mixture design for strength, printability, and sustainability. While machine learning (ML) models have improved predictive accuracy, their limited transparency has hindered their widespread adoption in materials engineering. To overcome this barrier, this study introduces a Random Forests ensemble learning model integrated with SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) and Partial Dependence Plots (PDPs) to model and explain the compressive strength behavior of 3DPC mixtures. Unlike conventional “black-box” models, SHAP quantifies each variable’s contribution to predictions based on cooperative game theory, which enables… More >

    Predicting Rock Burst in Underground Engineering Leveraging a Novel Metaheuristic-Based LightGBM Model

    Kai Wang1, Biao He2,*, Pijush Samui3, Jian Zhou4

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.140, No.1, pp. 229-253, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2024.047569 - 16 April 2024

    Abstract Rock bursts represent a formidable challenge in underground engineering, posing substantial risks to both infrastructure and human safety. These sudden and violent failures of rock masses are characterized by the rapid release of accumulated stress within the rock, leading to severe seismic events and structural damage. Therefore, the development of reliable prediction models for rock bursts is paramount to mitigating these hazards. This study aims to propose a tree-based model—a Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LightGBM)—to predict the intensity of rock bursts in underground engineering. 322 actual rock burst cases are collected to constitute an exhaustive… More >
