Using a high-resolution UAV with a 20 MP (MegaPixels) sensor, four images of a brick wall test field were captured and processed in Agisoft Metashape, with resolutions compared against Leica T2002 theodolite measurements (1.0 mm accuracy). Advanced statistical methods (ANOVA (analysis of variance), Tukey tests, Monte Carlo simulations) and ground control points validated the results. Accuracy improved from 25 mm at 50 PPI to 5 mm at 150 PPI (p < 0.01), plateauing at 4 mm beyond 200 PPI, while 150 PPI reduced processing time by 62% compared to 300 PPI. Unlike prior studies, this research uniquely isolates resolution effects in a controlled civil engineering context, offering a novel 150 PPI threshold that balances precision and efficiency. This threshold supports Saudi Vision 2030’s smart infrastructure goals for megaprojects like NEOM, providing a scalable framework for global applications. Future research should leverage deep learning to optimize resolutions in dynamic environments.展开更多

The codification of the Civil Code of the People’s Republic of China reflects the people’s legislation for themselves, which is guided by the principle of putting the people first in its external system and internal values. Functionally, the Civil Code of the People’s Republic of China reflects the obligation of the country to protect human rights, constructs the framework relationship between the country and individual people, and perfects the mechanism for human rights protection. The continuous expansion of the types, contents, and functions of civil rights in the Civil Code of the People’s Republic of China is required by the broad scope of human rights, with an aim to realize a happy life for the people, the most important human rights, and protect people’s personal rights, property rights, and right to dignity through specific rules. The universal sharing of human rights requires the universality of the subjects of civil rights. The equal sharing of human rights requires the equality of forms of civil rights protection. Meanwhile, it further requires the substantive equality of civil rights protection. Attention is paid to protecting the rights and interests of specific groups in external and embedded ways.展开更多

Auxiliary Power Unit(APU) is one of important components in aircraft, which provides electrical power and compressed air for aircraft. The hazards in APU are prone to cause economic losses and even casualties. So,actively identifying the hazards in APU before an accident occurs is necessary. In this paper, a Hybrid Deep Neural Network(HDNN) based on multi-time window convolutional neural network-Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory(CNN-Bi LSTM) neural network is proposed for active hazard identification of APU in civil aircraft. In order to identify the risks caused by different types of failures, the proposed HDNN simultaneously integrates three CNN-Bi LSTM basic models with different time window sizes in parallel by using a fully connected neural network. The CNN-Bi LSTM basic model can automatically extract features representing the system state from the input data and learn the time information of irregular trends in the time series data. Nine benchmark models are compared with the proposed HDNN. The comparison results show that the proposed HDNN has the highest identification accuracy. The HDNN has the most stable identification performance for data with imbalanced samples.展开更多

As a result, many aspects related to civil engineering will be influenced by changes of the type of load, Hence, the characteristics of the load and the corresponding response of structures are desired for studying. In this paper, the state-of-the-art of near-field problems in civil engineering is comprehensively reviewed, which include inherent characteristics of near-field ground motions and influences of these ground motions on civil structures. The existing problems are pointed out and work needed to be further investigated in the future is suggested.
