RISBidding Decision-Support Model for Construction Projects Based on Projection Pursuit Learning Method
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The decision of whether or not to bid is a crucial task for contractors in the construction industry because multiple attributes with the features of uncertainty and ambiguity can enhance the complexity and difficulty of ...
A Multiple-Objective Decision-Support Model for Lighting Maintenance Routing Considering Carbon Dioxide Emissions and Balanced Workload
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The lighting system as a crucial urban infrastructure needs to be maintained to uphold good performance. The planning and scheduling of maintenance for geographically distributed lighting systems is a complex research ...
Analytic Hierarchy Process–Simulation Framework for Lighting Maintenance Decision-Making Based on the Clustered Network
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The lighting system is an important infrastructure that needs to be maintained to curb degradations caused by aging and other extraneous factors. Facility managers are responsible for system operations and confront challenges ...
Stream Function Wave Theory with Profile Constraints
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Numerical stream function wave theory with inclusion of inequality profile constraints is presented in this paper. This theory is applicable to waves in shallow to intermediate to deep waters with a coflowing Eulerian ...
Research on the Implementation of a Commercial Bank’s Digital Transformation Business in the Investment and Financing of Highway Transportation Clean Energy Facility Construction
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In the context of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality policy, the promotion of highway transportation clean energy facility construction is urgently needed. This paper suggests that a new business model can be applied to ...
Spatial Analysis Framework for Age-Restricted Communities Integrating Spatial Distribution and Accessibility Evaluation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The rapid growth of the older-adult segment of the population has a profound effect on urban development and the fulfillment of housing needs. The location of age-restricted communities that serve older adults aged 65 or ...
Interfacial Shearing Behavior Analysis of Rockfill Using FDEM Simulation with Irregularly Shaped Particles
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: A set of numerical experiments of simple shear tests of rockfill–structure interfaces were performed using the combined finite- and discrete-element method (FDEM). Each particle was modeled as a polyhedron to represent ...
Consolidation Analysis for Soft Clay Reinforced by a Granular Column with Non-Darcian Flow
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The relationship between flow speed and pore pressure gradient does not follow the classical Darcy’s law for seepage within high-permeability and low-permeability media. Thus, considering the non-Darcian flow described by ...
The Numerical Study of Geometric Influence of Flow Channel Patterns on Performance of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study numerically investigates how the geometry of flow pattern influences performance of proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), and analyzes how these parameters lead to different ...
Effects of Backbone and Endgroup on the Decomposition Mechanisms of PFPE Lubricants and Their Tribological Performance at the Head-Disk Interface
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Tribo-chemical studies of the lubricant endgroup effect on the tribology of the head-disk interface were conducted using carbon disks coated with PFPE lubricant. The studies involved drag tests ...
