Estimating Infrastructure Condition from a Biased Sample
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper, we address the problem of making inferences about a population of infrastructure facilities from a subset that is a biased sample. We consider the case in which the sample is biased toward facilities in worse ...
Procedural and Operational Consequences of Navigational Equipment Outages: Exploration of Airport Performance
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper explores the impact of unscheduled navigational and surveillance equipment outages on airport performance during visual flight rules and instrument flight rules at San Francisco International Airport and Phoenix ...
Bathymetric Surveying with GPS and Heave, Pitch, and Roll Compensation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Field and laboratory tests of a shipborne hydrographic survey system were conducted. The system consists of two 12-channel GPS receivers (one onboard, one fixed on shore), a digital acoustic fathometer, and a digital ...
