The algorithm benefits from the re-triangulation technique of constrained delaunaytriangulation (CDT), which can yield a true volume value theoretically. Through a number ofpractical testscovering varied intervals between adjacent cross sections, it is proven to possess ahigher accuracy compared with that of traditional methods. All the work involved in this paperindicates that the 3-dimensional calculation of roadway earthwork volumeis feasible, more accurateand should have further application in practice.展开更多

In a sense, the acceleration of urbanization will lead to some changes in land resources, so that more land can be better used for urban construction. The practice has proved that in the actual construction of the earth filling survey, the earth filling amount and excavation amount are well calculated, which is of guiding significance for the urban planning. With the acceleration of the urbanization process, the value of land resources is constantly improving, so higher requirements are put forward for the accuracy of earthwork measurement itself. In order to ensure the effective use of land resources, corresponding measures must be taken to control the quality of earthwork measurement under the new situation.展开更多

Previous work considered the road profile as series of interconnected linear segments. In these models, constraints are included in the linear programming formulation to insure continuity of the road, which cause sharp connectivity points at the intersection of the linear segments. This sharp connectivity needs to be smoothed out after l;he linear programming solution is found and the earth in the smoothed portion of the roadway has to be moved to the landfill. In previous research, the smoothing issue is dealt with after an optimal solution is found. This increases the work required by the design engineer and consequently increases the construction cost; furthermore, the optimal solution is violated by this smoothing operation. In this paper, the issue of sharp connectivity points is resolved by representing the road profile by a quadratic function. The continuity constraints are dropped (unneeded) and global optimality is guaranteed. Moreover, no violation is incurred to implement the optimum results. Although a quadratic function is used to represent the road profile, the mathematical model is purely linear in nature.展开更多
