Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Analysis of Structures Using Neural NetworksN. Ahmadi, R. Kamyab Moghadas, A. LavaeiIn the recent years, neural networks are considered as the best candidate for fast approximation with arbitrary accuracy in the time consuming problems. Dynamic analysis of structures against earthquake has the time consuming process. We employed two kinds of neural networks: Generalized Regression neural network (GR) and Back-Propagation Wavenet neural network (BPW), for approximating of dynamic time history response of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,154 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Rainfall-runoff Models to Zard River Catchment'sM. B. Rahnama, G. A. BaraniRainfall-runoff models are nonlinear processes according to the sequential and spatial distribution of the rainfall. So, it is difficult to explain the response of catchments systems with the simple models. In the present work simulation of the rainfall-runoff processes have been carried out by the Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and the HEC-HMS models. The ANN models of Multi Layer Perceptron … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,528 accessesView PDFCite
