Understanding absenteeism in construction: a pilot study on industrial construction in Alberta
DownloadSpring 2010
Absenteeism is a factor that adversely influences construction productivity. Construction employers in Alberta have been trying to address high levels of absenteeism on their projects but they have not been successful so far. This study aims at a better understanding of absenteeism on...

Understanding and Improving Input for Quantitative Risk Analysis in the Construction Industry
DownloadFall 2013
Risk analysis in the construction industry involves identifying risk events that could potentially affect a project and its delivery, quantifying those risks, and developing mitigation strategies to enhance project success. This thesis aims to improve the process of risk analysis through the...

Understanding the Role of Amphiphilic Chemical Additives in Enhanced Oil Recovery from Molecular Perspectives
DownloadFall 2022
Carefully designed chemical formulas are often applied in the enhanced oil recovery (EOR) process. Understanding the molecular distribution and working mechanism of each component can provide theoretical guidance in designing chemical formulas with desired functionalities. In this dissertation,...
