Classifying excavation-induced slopes considering the arching effect and understating the
features are crucial for determining the appropriate designs for excavation, assessing the …

Real-time displacement monitoring is important for ensuring the safety of subway tunnel
structures when construction activities are carried out near them. Owing to the special …

The global construction industry continues to struggle with safety issues. Although the
existing literature suggests that the application of innovative solutions can reduce workplace …

Understanding the stress distribution derived from monitoring the principal stress (PS) in
slopes is of great importance. In this study, a miniature sensor for quantifying the two …

Physical model tests are considered to be useful tools and are widely used in landslide
research. The three-dimensional (3D) surface deformation of slope models provides useful …

Mining in an open-pit slope results in the deformation and instability of rock masses.
Correspondingly, it is difficult to quantify the range of internal rock mass damage completely …

This study employs Structure from Motion (SfM) to survey a historic building façade.
Professional photogrammetric software (Agisoft PhotoScan and Pix4D) is compared with low …

The digital surface model (DSM) of open-pit mines generated by oblique photogrammetry
has a large amount of data and much interference information. Therefore, it is necessary to …

In salt rock stratum, tunnels are prone to damages such as corrosion cavity in base or
inverted arch bulging and cracking. However, the conventional monitoring system cannot …

Crown pillars provide regional and local support by isolating the ground surface from
underground mine workings. Topography above the underground mine may be a relatively …
