This deposit contains data related to clay formwork 3D printing for fabricating reinforced concrete beams. Two sets of data are provided: (1) point cloud deviations representing the clay formwork deformations during concrete casting, and (2) the load-displacement behavior of the resulting concrete beams during the four-point flexural tests. For more details, please see the corresponding article.
This item contains two files. A multi-layer perceptron (MLP) neural network is built using the MATLAB Deep Network Designer (.m file). It imports a quantum cascade laser (QCL) dataset and splits it into 70% training, 15% validation, and 15% testing subsets. The network consists of an input layer, three hidden layers (each having a normalization and activation layer), and a regression output layer. All of the layers are fully connected, and the root-mean-square error (RMSE) is used to evaluate the accuracy of the network. An algorithm is trained on the [-5, +20] QCL dataset using 50 neurons, ReLU activation function, solver Adam, 0.001 learning rate, over 50 epochs, and is saved to be used in the prediction of figure of merit values for QCL designs (.mat file).
