Abstract: Due to the complexity of infrastructure megaprojects, using joint venture contractors (JVCs) is an effective method to deliver projects. However, this process is constrained by several factors, including the quality of ...

Abstract: The process of selecting contractors for megaprojects involves inherent uncertainty in judgment and preferences, especially under multiple criteria group decision-making (MCGDM) scenarios. This uncertainty often stems from ...

Abstract: To examine the seismic active pressure on retaining walls, the pseudo-dynamic method is adopted in deducing the formulas of seismic active earth pressure. The critical rupture angle is analytically solved on the basis of ...

Abstract: Selecting an appropriate joint venture contractor (JVC) is paramount to the success of large-scale infrastructure projects. The purpose of this paper is to develop a unified approach for JVC selection. The proposed approach ...

Abstract: The synergistic development of metropolitan areas led by megacities is considered a driving force in achieving regional coordination and the high-quality development of urban agglomerations. Extant studies have often ...
