Book Chapter
Zhang, Y., Gallipoli, D., & Augarde, C. (2009). Parallel Hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization and Applications in Geotechnical Engineering. In Z. Cai, Z. Li, Z. Kang, & Y. Liu (Eds.), Advances in computation and intelligence (466-475). Springer Verlag. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-04843-2_49

A novel parallel hybrid particle swarm optimization algorithm named hmPSO is presented. The new algorithm combines particle swarm optimization (PSO) with a local search method which aims to accelerate the rate of convergence. The PSO provides initial...

Numerical models in soft ground tunnelling (2003)
Book Chapter
Augarde, C. (2003). Numerical models in soft ground tunnelling. In B. Topping (Ed.), Progress in civil and structural engineering computing (285-314). Saxe-Coburg

Numerical modelling has been used for a number of years for problems relating to soft-ground tunnelling (i.e. where the ground being excavated is not rock). Three problems require solutions in soft ground tunnelling. Firstly the effects tunnelling wi... Read More about Numerical models in soft ground tunnelling.
