Evolutionary computing-based models for predicting seismic shear strength of RC columns

A number of regression-based models have been proposed to quantify the seismic shear strength of reinforced concrete (RC) columns. However, most of these models suffer from a high degree of uncertainty as a result of the limited datasets used in their development and/or the classic approaches used to capture the non-linear interrelationships between the shear strength and influencing factors. To address these issues, in this work, the power of …
