Image-Based Approach for Parking-Spot Detection with Occlusion Handling
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: With the aid of advanced information technology, car parking space management is evolving dramatically toward an automatic way. The most efficient approach for parking-spot detection is based on embedded sensors, which can ...
Multiagent Approach for Real-Time Collision Avoidance and Path Replanning for Cranes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Collisions on construction sites are one of the primary causes of fatal accidents. This paper proposes a multiagent-based approach to provide real-time support to the staff of construction projects. Collision avoidance is ...
Multiagent System–Based Near-Real-Time Trajectory and Microscopic Timetable Optimization for Rail Transit Network
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In the rail transit field, the practical operation process suffers from potential energy waste caused by disturbances. The present paper proposes a multiagent system (MAS) to reduce rail transit energy consumption when ...
Toward an Efficient Construction Process: What Drives BIM Professionals to Collaborate in BIM-Enabled Projects
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: As one of the emerging digital technologies, building information modeling (BIM) has been increasingly used in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry of many countries. One of the core benefits ...
Analytical and Experimental Determination of Rate- and Temperature-Dependent Length Scales Using Nanoindentation Experiments
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This work addresses the temperature and rate indentation size effects (TRISE) encountered in nanoindentation experiments and the corresponding material intrinsic length scales at different strain rates. The same value for ...
Warpage Analysis of Underfilled Wafers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Wafer-level packaging (WLP) is one of the future trends in electronic packaging. Since 1994, many companies have released various WLP licenses. One of the common concerns of WLP is wafer ...
Resource Management of Bridge Deck Rehabilitation: Jacques Cartier Bridge Case Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The condition and performance of bridges vary widely across North America. The large amount of expenditures on bridges needs significant efforts to optimize budget and resource allocation and to select the best rehabilitation ...
Effective Scanning Range Estimation for Using TLS in Construction Projects
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) is an effective tool to generate geometric models of existing buildings and other structures. TLS has shown great potential in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) ...
Combustion Interactions of Blended Chars under Oxidation and Gasification Competition in Oxy–Fuel Condition
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The combustion interactions during blended coal combustion affect their combustion characteristics, and the combustion interactions under air–fuel conditions have been well studied. However, oxy–fuel combustion considerably ...
Evaluation of the Blending Effectiveness of Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement Binder
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: There is a recent trend of using a higher content of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) in asphalt pavement construction. When evaluating the properties of mixed RAP and virgin binder and selecting a base binder to be mixed ...
