RISResource Sharing in Linear Construction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the method developed, the conventional method of allocating resources are not used. Instead, resource‐hour units are employed. This enables to allocate resources precisely and the analysis becomes realistic unlike any ...
Discussion of “<i>Scheduling: Effective Methods and Techniques</i>” by Elis Hosten McGough (March, 1982)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Structural Damage Detection via Modal Data with Genetic Algorithms
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a nondestructive global damage detection and assessment methodology based on the changes in frequencies and mode shapes of vibration of a structural system. The method is applied at an element level ...
Prevention of Impact in Bearings of Four-Bar Linkages
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The loss of pin contact in bearings of four bar-linkages, and the avoidance of impact within a bearing through prevention of contact loss are both investigated in this study. Conditions ...
Deep Learning Toward Autonomous Ship Navigation and Possible COLREGs Failures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A structured technology framework to address navigation considerations, including collision avoidance, of autonomous ships is the focus of this study. That consists of adequate maritime technologies to achieve the required ...
Disputes in Construction Projects: A Perspective of Project Characteristics
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Over the decades, the construction industry has been experiencing disputes in different project contexts. For example, disputes are more prevalent in traditionally procured projects and in projects with a complex nature ...
Impact of Natural Site Variability on Nondestructive Test Deflection Basins
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A series of nondestructive tests (NDT) using a falling‐weight deflectometer and Dynaflect was performed at 20 test locations in Arizona. Deflection basins were obtained at 10 ft (3 m) intervals over 90 ft (27 m) length of ...
Marine Engine-Centered Data Analytics for Ship Performance Monitoring
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study proposes marine engine centered data analytics as a part of the ship energy efficiency management plan (SEEMP). The SEEMP enforces various emission control measures to improve ship energy efficiency by considering ...
Soil-Embedded Steel Baffle with Concrete Footing Responding to Collision by a Fallen or Flying Object
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This article is concerned with the design of steel baffles embedded in soil to contain fallen boulders rolling down a hill slope, with the buried segment of the baffles cast into concrete. Analytical solutions presented ...
Flexural and Shear Design of FRP Plated RC Structures Using a Genetic Algorithm
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A design procedure implementing a genetic algorithm has been developed for the discrete optimization of the design of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) RC structures. The aims of the procedure are to minimize the material ...
