Abstract: This paper proposes a new approach, entitled discrete event simulation with probabilistic event list (DESPEL), for approximating the project completion time and the critical path in a stochastic resource–constrained project ...

Abstract: The forces a walker exerts to an oscillating floor differ significantly from those exerted to a fixed floor. This is because of a natural and unconscious gait modification, deriving from the necessity of minimizing energy ...

Abstract: The research into modeling walking-induced dynamic loading and its effects on footbridge structures and people using them has been intensified in the past decade after some high profile vibration serviceability failures. ...

Abstract: Accurate estimation of activity durations is a critical project scheduling step. If abundant data are available for activity durations, then distribution fitting is straightforward. However, if sample sizes are small, then ...
