AI predicts wind-uplift resistance of solar PV piles Researchers in Iran have developed an interpretable artificial neural network to predict the uplift capacity of driven steel piles used in utility-scale PV projects. The model achieved a mean absolute percentage error of 7.63%, with pile penetration rate and soil friction angle emerging as the most influential predictors.
