An artificial neural network (ANN) approach is proposed to the problem of estimating the propeller torques of a frigate using combined diesel, electric and gas (CODLAG) propulsion system. The authors use a multilayer perceptron (MLP) feed-forward ANN trained with data from a dataset which describes the decay state coefficients as outputs and system parameters as inputs – with a goal of determining the propeller torques, removing the decay state coefficients and using the torque values of the starboard and port propellers as outputs. A total of 53760 ANNs are trained – 26880 for each of the propellers, with a total 8960 parameter combinations. The results are evaluated using mean absolute error (MAE) and coefficient of determination (R2). Best results for the starboard propeller are MAE of 2.68 [Nm], and MAE of 2.58 [Nm] for the port propeller with following ANN configurations respectively: 2 hidden layers with 32 neurons and identity activation and 3 hidden layers with 16, 32 and 16 neurons and identity activation function. Both configurations achieve R2 value higher than 0.99.

Prediction of peak particle velocity (PPV) is very complicated due to the number of influencing parameters affecting seism wave propagation. In this paper, artificial neural network (ANN) is implemented to develop a model to predict PPV in a blasting operation. Based on the measured parameters of maximum explosive charge used per delay and distance between blast face to monitoring point, a three-layer ANN was found to be optimum with architecture 2-5-1. Through the analysis of coefficient of determination (CoD) and mean absolute error (MAE) between monitored and predicted values of PPV, it indicates that the forecast data by the ANN model is close to the actua1 values.

Soil Coefficient of Consolidation (Cv) is a crucial mechanical parameter and used to characterize whether the soil undergoes consolidation or compaction when subjected to pressure. In order to define such a parameter, the experimental approaches are costly, time-consuming, and required appropriate equipment to perform the tests. In this study, the development of an alternative manner to estimate the Cv, based on Artificial Neural Network (ANN), was conducted. A database containing 188 tests was used to develop the ANN model. Two structures of ANN were considered, and the accuracy of each model was assessed using common statistical measurements such as the coefficient of determination (R2), root mean square error (RMSE), and mean absolute error (MAE). In performing 600 simulations in each case, the ANN structure containing 14 neurons was statistically superior to the other one. Finally, a typical ANN result was presented to prove that it can be an excellent predictor of the problem, with a satisfying accuracy performance that yielded of RMSE = 0.0614, MAE = 0.0415, and R2 = 0.99727. This study might help in quick and accurate prediction of the Cv used in civil engineering problems.

This paper presents a step-by-step procedure for the simulation of photovoltaic modules with numerical values, using MALTAB/Simulink software. The proposed model is developed based on the mathematical model of PV module, which based on PV solar cell employing one-diode equivalent circuit. The output current and power characteristics curves highly depend on some climatic factors such as radiation and temperature, are obtained by simulation of the selected module. The collected data are used in developing Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model. Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) and Radial Basis Function (RBF) are the techniques used to forecast the outputs of the PV. Various types of activation function will be applied such as Linear, Logistic Sigmoid, Hyperbolic Tangent Sigmoid and Gaussian. The simulation results show that the Logistic Sigmoid is the best technique which produce minimal root mean square error for the system.

Groundwater is one of the major sources of fresh water. Maintenance and management of this vital resource is so important especially in arid and semi-arid regions. Reliable and accurate groundwater quality assessment is essential as a basic data for any groundwater management studies. The aim of this study is to compare the accuracy of two Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Kriging methods in predicting chlorine in groundwater. In case of ANN, we created an appropriate emulator, which minimize the prediction error by changing the parameters of the neural network, including the number of layers. The best Kriging model is also obtained by changing the variogram function, such that the Gaussian variogram has the least error in interpolation of the amount of chlorine. To evaluate the accuracy of these two methods, the mean square error (MSE) and Coefficient of determination (R2) are used. The data set consists of the amount of chlorine, in a monthly basis, measured at 112 observation wells from 1999 to 2015 in aquifer Qazvin, Iran. MSE values for ANN and Kriging are 14.8 and 15.4, respectively, which indicate that the ANN has a better performance and is more capable of predicting chlorine values in comparison with Kriging.

In this study, an artificial neural network (ANN) model was developed to predict the gloss of thermally densified wood veneers. A custom application created with MATLAB codes was employed for the development of the multilayer feed-forward ANN model. The wood species, temperature, pressure, measurement direction, and angle of incidence were considered as the model inputs, while the gloss was the output of the ANN model. Model performance was evaluated by using the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), the root mean square error (RMSE), and the coefficient of determination (R²). It was observed that the ANN model yielded very satisfactory results with acceptable deviations. The MAPE, RMSE, and R2 values of the testing period of the ANN model were found as 8.556%, 1.245, and 0.9814, respectively. Consequently, this study could be useful for the wood industry to predict the gloss with less number of tiring experimental activities.

Prediction of runoff is often important for optimal design of water storage and drainage works andmanagement of extreme events like floods and droughts. Rainfall-runoff (RR) models are considered to be most effectiveand expedient tool for runoff prediction. Number of models like stochastic, conceptual, deterministic, black-box, etc. iscommonly available for RR modelling. This paper details a study involving the use of Artificial Neural Network (ANN)and Regression (REG) approaches for prediction of runoff for Betwa and Chambal regions. Model performanceindicators such as model efficiency, correlation coefficient, root mean square error and root mean absolute error are usedto evaluate the performance of ANN and REG for runoff prediction. Statistical parameters are employed to find theaccuracy in prediction by ANN and REG for the data under study. The paper presents that ANN approach is found to besuitable for prediction of runoff for Betwa and Chambal regions.

The authors have developed an artificial neural network model using odor threshold (OT) property data for diverse odorant components present in black tea (76 components) and coffee (46 components). The models were validated in terms of both internal and external validation criteria signifying acceptable results. The authors found the significant features controlling the OT property using Mean Absolute Error (MAE)-based criteria in a backward elimination of descriptors, one in each turn. The present results well-corroborated the previously published PLS-regression based chemometric model results.

The main objective of this study is to develop a rate of penetration (ROP) model for Khasib formation in Ahdab oil field and determine the drilling parameters controlling the prediction of ROP values by using artificial neural network (ANN).      An Interactive Petrophysical software was used to convert the raw dataset of transit time (LAS Readings) from parts of meter-to-meter reading with depth. The IBM SPSS statistics software version 22 was used to create an interconnection between the drilling variables and the rate of penetration, detection of outliers of input parameters, and regression modeling. While a JMP Version 11 software from SAS Institute Inc. was used for artificial neural modeling.      The proposed artificial neural network method depends on obtaining the input data from drilling mud logging data and wireline logging data. The data then analyzes it to create an interconnection between the drilling variables and the rate of penetration.      The proposed ANN model consists of an input layer, hidden layer and outputs layer, while it applies the tangent function (TanH) as a learning and training algorithm in the hidden layer. Finally, the predicted values of ROP are compared with the measured values. The proposed ANN model is more efficient than the multiple regression analysis in predicting ROP. The obtained coefficient of determination (R2) values using the ANN technique are 0.93 and 0.91 for training and validation sets, respectively. This study presents a new model for predicting ROP values in comparison with other conventional drilling measurements.

Abstract Aeration experiments were conducted in a masonry tank to study the effects of operating parameters on standard aeration efficiency (SAE) of a propeller diffused aeration (PDA) system. The operating parameters include the rotational speed of shaft (N), submergence depth (h), and propeller angle (α). The response surface methodology (RSM) and artificial neural network (ANN) were used for modelling and optimizing the standard aeration efficiency (SAE) of a PDA system. The results of the both approaches were compared for their modelling abilities in terms of coefficient of determination (R2), root mean square error (RMSE), and mean absolute error (MAE), computed from experimental and predicted data. ANN models were proved to be superior to RSM. The results indicate that for achieving the maximum standard aeration efficiency (SAE), N, h and α should be 1,000 rpm, 0.50 m, and 12°, respectively. The maximum SAE was found to be 1.711 kg O2/ kWh. The cross-validation results show that the best approximation of optimal values of input parameters for maximizing SAE is possible with a maximum deviation (absolute error) of ±15.2% between the model predicted and experimental values.
