A two-dimensional model was established using Midas GTS NX, combined with bench cut method excavation simulation. The laws of vault and surface settlement were quantitatively analyzed through displacement nephograms, and the spatiotemporal characteristics of surrounding rock displacement were revealed. The results show that under the established excavation and support measures, the displacement and settlement meet the specification requirements. Meanwhile, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) was introduced to determine weights and analyze the coupling correlation of factors through judgment matrices, clarifying the influence degrees of surrounding rock grade, support strength, and other factors to achieve multi-dimensional evaluation. Furthermore, the Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation method was integrated to quantify the mapping relationship between surrounding rock stability and safety, and the safety grade was obtained. Finally, measures such as strengthening support, optimizing excavation parameters, refined exploration, and improving management were proposed to enhance surrounding rock stability and reduce construction risks.</p> Shangyue Lin Copyright (c) 2025 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/JARD/article/view/13072 Fri, 12 Dec 2025 15:18:13 +0800 Multi-Source Heterogeneous Data Fusion Analysis Platform for Thermal Power Plants https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/JARD/article/view/13017 <p>With the acceleration of intelligent transformation of energy system, the monitoring of equipment operation status and optimization of production process in thermal power plants face the challenge of multi-source heterogeneous data integration. In view of the heterogeneous characteristics of physical sensor data, including temperature, vibration and pressure that generated by boilers, steam turbines and other key equipment and real-time working condition data of SCADA system, this paper proposes a multi-source heterogeneous data fusion and analysis platform for thermal power plants based on edge computing and deep learning. By constructing a multi-level fusion architecture, the platform adopts dynamic weight allocation strategy and 5D digital twin model to realize the collaborative analysis of physical sensor data, simulation calculation results and expert knowledge. The data fusion module combines Kalman filter, wavelet transform and Bayesian estimation method to solve the problem of data time series alignment and dimension difference. Simulation results show that the data fusion accuracy can be improved to more than 98%, and the calculation delay can be controlled within 500 ms. The data analysis module integrates Dymola simulation model and AERMOD pollutant diffusion model, supports the cascade analysis of boiler combustion efficiency prediction and flue gas emission monitoring, system response time is less than 2 seconds, and data consistency verification accuracy reaches 99.5%.</p> Jianqiu Wang, Jianting Wen, Hui Gao, Chenchen Kang Copyright (c) 2025 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/JARD/article/view/13017 Wed, 10 Dec 2025 16:28:31 +0800 Research on the Application of Digital Twin Technology in the Full Lifecycle Operation and Maintenance Management of Urban Road Infrastructure https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/JARD/article/view/13074 <p>With the continuous development of digital technology, urban management and urban construction have undergone tremendous changes, exerting a profound impact on people’s lives.

Owing to its layered structure, its deformation and strength properties exhibit distinct anisotropic characteristics. Taking a deep-excavated railway tunnel as the engineering context, this study investigates the asymmetric deformation laws of layered soft rock tunnels from two perspectives: laboratory tests and numerical simulations. Uniaxial saturated compression tests were conducted to analyze the anisotropic mechanical characteristics of rock bedding planes. This study established a model of layered rock mass tunnel excavation and support. From the perspectives of tunnel peripheral displacement, plastic zone, and maximum principal stress, it reveals the asymmetric deformation characteristics of the surrounding rock under different dip angles of bedding planes. These findings provide valuable insights for the construction of high-stress layered soft rock tunnels.</p> Ye Yuan, Meng Zhang, Xinrui Wang Copyright (c) 2025 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/JARD/article/view/13061 Fri, 12 Dec 2025 14:34:32 +0800 Construction Management of HVAC Engineering in Real Estate: Key Strategies for Quality Control https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/JARD/article/view/13092 <p>This research focuses on quality control strategies in real estate HVAC engineering construction management.
