Abstract:
With the increasing demand for the increasing performance of ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) in engineering construction, accurately predicting its compressive and tensile strength and optimising the material mix design has become a research focus. This paper proposes a hybrid model combining a multilayer perceptron (MLP) and LightGBM, which integrates the deep feature extraction capability of MLP and the efficient regression capability of LightGBM to achieve the high-precision prediction of UHPC compressive and tensile strength. Experimental data under different w/c (0.18, 0.19, 0.20, 0.22), curing temperatures (40 degrees, 60 degrees, 80 degrees), and an ageing period of 56 days were collected for the model training and validation. The results show that the hybrid model outperforms the individual models, particularly exhibiting a high generalisation capability at low w/c, with R2 reaching 0.98 in the validation and test sets and a mean absolute error (MAE) of only 1.02 MPa. Finally, the effects of different mix proportions and curing temperatures on the models' prediction results are discussed, providing valuable reference data for UHPC material design and engineering applications.
