RISInterplay of Contractual Governance and Trust in Improving Construction Project Performance: Dynamic Perspective
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Although contractual governance and trust have been regarded as critical factors for explaining construction project performance, their interplay at different stages of project development is still lacking. From a dynamic ...
Understanding the Double-Edged Sword Effect of Contract Flexibility on Contractor’s Opportunistic Behavior in Construction Project: Moderating Role of BIM Application Degree
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Contract flexibility is like a double-edged sword for contractor opportunistic behavior, and it may both inhibit and promote such opportunistic behavior. This study constructs a dual-path integration model in which contract ...
Configuring Governance Mechanisms to Improve the Engineering Consulting Project Performance
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Extensive research has demonstrated the significance of project governance in enhancing project performance. However, previous studies have not dealt with the problem of governance mechanism design for engineering consulting ...
Thermal Characteristics of Two-Layered Bodies With Embedded Thin-Film Heat Source
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Exact series solutions for three-dimensional temperature distribution in two-layer bodies subject to various types of boundary conditions are presented. Special consideration is given to the case ...
Multiobjective Optimization Method of Public Transit Networks Based on Travel Behavior
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The optimization of transit network can improve transit efficiency and traffic conditions as well as reduce environmental pollution. Transit network optimization that considers the travel behavior of bus passengers comprises ...
How Contractor Behavior Affects Engineering Project Value-Added Performance
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Contractors are one of the most important project participants, and their behavior has gained increasing attention for improving performance, but few studies have been devoted to focusing on the forms of contractor behavior ...
Evaluation of the Durability of Asphalt Concrete Anti-Skid Performance
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study presents a test method to evaluate the durability of the anti-skid performance of asphalt concrete. In this work, the influence of mixture gradation, asphalt-aggregate ratio, and temperature on the texture depth ...
Experimental Research on Interlayer Strain Transfer of Semirigid Asphalt Pavement and Influencing Factors
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Interlayer strain transferring effect of homogeneous or heterogeneous materials is obtained by small-scale interlayer bonding test model to quantitatively evaluate the interlayer bonding of semirigid asphalt pavement. The ...
Study on Dynamic Modulus Dependence Model for Asphalt Mixture Based on Temperature and Strain Parameters
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In order to objectively characterize the nonlinear viscoelastic behavior of asphalt mixture and its dependence on temperature and load, the two-point dynamic flexural tensile modulus test of asphalt mixture at different ...
