Estimating the Axial Compression Capacity of Concrete-Filled Double-Skin Tubular Columns with Metallic and...

This research focuses on estimating the ACC (axial compression capacity) of concrete-filled double-skin tubular (CFDST) columns. The study utilised algorithms and 'six' evaluation methods (XGBoost, AdaBoost, Lasso, Ridge, Random Forest Regressor and artificial neural network (ANN) architecture-based regression) to study the empirical formulae and utilise the parameters as the research's features, in order to find the best model that has higher and accurate reliability by using the RMSE and R² scores as performance evaluation metrics. Thus, by identifying the best model in empirical formulae for estimating the ACC of CFDST, the research offers a reliable model for future research. Through findings, it was found that, out of the existing evaluation metrics, the ABR for AFRP, GFRP and Steel; RFR for CFRP; and RR for PETFRP were found to be the best models in the CFDST columns.
