Abstract: This paper develops a model for evaluating optimal coordination of a multimodal and multioperator transit system. The core logic of the modeling is to minimize the total cost for both transit operators and users. Hence, ...

Abstract: A work schedule optimization model of a bus route is proposed to minimize labor cost by optimizing the work schedule of bus drivers. The mathematical model is constructed using set covering theory to minimize the number ...

Abstract: The consolidation process of a stone-column reinforced foundation under partially drained boundaries was investigated on the basis of a newly developed consolidation theory. An analytical solution was created using a ...

Abstract: In this research study, a multistage fuzzy logic controller (MS-FLC) was developed for traffic control in incident management on expressways. The MS-FLC serves as the traffic operator’s decision-making support tool at the ...

Abstract: The dynamic characteristics of large-scale civil structures are generally evaluated by performing operational modal analysis based on ambient vibration records measured by contact sensors, e.g., accelerometers. However, ...

Abstract: Mud slurries are characterized by high water content and low strength; therefore, treatment (which included volume reduction and strength improvement in this study) was required before they could be transported, handled, ...

Abstract: Foam, as a group of disconnected gas bubbles wrapped with liquid film, also exists in municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills. In this study, a foam flow model in MSW is established, in which the population balance equation ...
