Iconic Animation for Activity-based Construction Simulation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper discusses the development of an animation tool for the activity-based construction (ABC) modeling and simulation system. The tool uses an activity-based network diagram, i.e., ABC simulation model, as the animation ...
Application of Fuzzy Logic to Simulation for Construction Operations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper describes the application of fuzzy logic to discrete event simulation in dealing with uncertainties of construction operations. The uncertainties in the quantity of resources required to activate an activity are ...
Nonlinear Models for Predicting Hoisting Times of Tower Cranes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Accuracy in estimating activity duration is one of the key prerequisites for successful construction planning. Efficient material transportation plays an important role in reducing costs and time. Time measurement and ...
Permutation-Based Particle Swarm Optimization for Resource-Constrained Project Scheduling
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the light of particle swarm optimization (PSO) which utilizes both local and global experiences during search process, a permutation-based scheme for the resource-constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) is ...
Activity Object-Oriented Simulation Strategy for Modeling Construction Operations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The application of an object-oriented (OO) approach including the OO modeling concept and the OO programming mechanisms to develop an activity object-oriented (AOO) simulation strategy for modeling construction operations ...
