Abstract: This work presents the formulation of the pickup probability for sediment entrainment under the log-normally distributed instantaneous velocity. Herein two mathematical approaches, namely the analytical method and the ...

Abstract: Monitoring data of civil structures mainly include load- and temperature-induced structural responses. Traditional damage-detection methods use vibration-based structure responses by eliminating temperature effects from ...

Abstract: On-ramp merging areas are congestion-prone segments of freeways. Depending on the aggressiveness of the driving population and the congestion level, the speed variance among travel lanes due to lane changes and ramp-merging ...

Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI) presents significant opportunities and challenges within the construction industry. Higher education will have a vital role in preparing future professionals to leverage AI tools, and in the ...

Abstract: The objective of this study was to explore the association rules influencing the frictional performance of high-friction road markings based on the skid resistance acceptance standard in excess of 65 British Pendulum Number ...

Abstract: This study is aimed at determining the worker training time and proficiency threshold for each activity in precast component production based on the learning curve theory. Training data for precast component production for ...
