Gender Disparity in Engineering as a Function of Physics Enrollment and Its Implications for Civil Engineering
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Despite tremendous advances by women in the natural and applied sciences, where in selective fields women have surpassed men in the earning of doctoral degrees for more nearly
Advantages of Infinite Elements over Prespecified Boundary Conditions in Unbounded Problems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper promotes the further development and adoption of infinite elements for unbounded problems. This is done by demonstrating the ease of application and computational efficiency of infinite elements. Specifically, ...
Meshfree Sequentially Linear Analysis of Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A new, meshfree method employing the node-based, smoothed point interpolation method (NS-PIM) is presented as an alternative to the nonlinear finite-element approach for concrete members. The nonlinear analysis is replaced ...
Urban Point Cloud Mining Based on Density Clustering and MapReduce
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper proposes an approach to classify, localize, and extract automatically urban objects such as buildings and the ground surface from a digital surface model created from aerial laser scanning data. To achieve that, ...
Big-Data Approach for Three-Dimensional Building Extraction from Aerial Laser Scanning
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper proposes a big-data approach to automatically identify and extract buildings from a digital surface model created from aerial laser scanning data. The approach consists of two steps. The first step is a MapReduce ...

Abstract: A new, meshfree method employing the node-based, smoothed point interpolation method (NS-PIM) is presented as an alternative to the nonlinear finite-element approach for concrete members. The nonlinear analysis is replaced ...
The Need for Baseline Data Characteristics for GIS-Based Disaster Management Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Flight Optimization Algorithms for Aerial LiDAR Capture for Urban Infrastructure Model Generation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Aerial light detection and ranging (LiDAR) offers the potential to autogenerate detailed, three-dimensional (3D) models of the built environment in urban settings. Autogeneration is needed as manual generation is not ...
Reliability of Crack Detection Methods for Baseline Condition Assessments
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Despite billions of dollars of annual exposure from claims and litigation related to construction-induced damage, there are no quantitatively based, agreed upon standards or procedures as to what constitutes due diligence ...
Evacuation Route Selection Based on Tree-Based Hazards Using Light Detection and Ranging and GIS
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Falling trees pose a great hazard to the safe and uninterrupted use of the road transportation system during storm events. The present process of manually identifying potentially hazardous trees is laborious and inefficient. ...
