Enhancing space modeling and mobile resources planning in construction operations through a simulation driven visualization framework
DownloadFall 2011
Simulation modeling is a strong tool that has not been utilized to its expected potential in day to day construction industry activities. One of the reasons contributing to that is the inability of simulation models to depict changes in site space in an intuitive way. This research tries to...

Spring 2016
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...

Fall 2010
A laboratory experiment and a numerical simulation of a dual well pair SAGD process with live bitumen were conducted to examine operating strategies on the recovery performance of a multiple well pair SAGD process. The experiment was successfully carried out under such operation strategies as...

Improving the Efficiency, Productivity, and Cost-Effectiveness of Modular Design and Construction Processes
DownloadSpring 2012
This thesis provides a methodology to incorporate building information modeling (BIM), lean construction, and simulation modelling into a cohesive package in the context of modular manufacturing. BIM was used to construct a three dimensional model from which the wall and object properties were...

Rodriguez-de la Torre, Rhamid Hortensia
Since oil and gas production from conventional fields is decreasing, the produc-tion of unconventional hydrocarbon reservoirs is becoming imperative, where geo-mechanical responses play an important role. This research presents a methodology that starts exploring the inclusion of geomechanics in...

Incorporating the effects of complex dynamic interactions in the construction decision making process
DownloadFall 2011
Construction projects involve complex interactions among operational components such as labour, materials and equipment and context or organizational components such as worker morale and organizational policies. Interactions among different components of construction projects form byzantine...

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...
