The Development of Random Generators of Weather and Industrial Pipelines Data using Parametric and Non-Parametric Approaches
DownloadSpring 2017
Construction projects are unique and complex in nature. They are associated with many challenges regarding the randomness, complexity, and interdependency related to the operation/process, the environment hosting the operation, and the product being constructed. These challenges are also common...

Numerical Simulations of Anelastic and Boussinesq Rotating Convection with Radial Entropy Gradient Boundary Conditions
DownloadFall 2017
Observations from the gas giants Jupiter or Saturn allow for researchers to construct geophysical fluid dynamical numerical models in an attempt to replicate the observed features. Most models aim at replicating the zonal jets and the eddies observed on these gas giants to understand how they are...

Renewal of damaged and worn pipes is becoming a significant maintenance concern for municipalities in North America as many collection systems (water and wastewater underground infrastructure) have reached beyond the ends of their service lives. Cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) rehabilitation is one of...

Touch is one of the most important sensory inputs during the performance of surgery. However, the literature on kinesthetic and tactile feedback—both called haptic—in surgical training remain rudimentary. This rudimentary knowledge is partially due to the fact that haptic feedback is difficult to...

Integrated Production Planning and Control System for Prefabrication of Panelized Construction for Residential Building
DownloadFall 2016
Panelized construction has been recognized as a promising approach to residential construction. However, its full potential in terms of productivity improvement has not yet been realized due to the absence of an automated production planning and control system. This research thus conceives an...

Area Yield Crop Insurance and Diversification in Ghana: An Agricultural Household Programming Model
DownloadFall 2016
Although diversification and insurance are acknowledged as important in ameliorating risk, to our knowledge, no empirical study has investigated how the two approaches work in concert in developing countries. Given increasing climate variability and the risks it poses to rain-fed agriculture,...
