Fall 2013
This dissertation relies on the wager that we live in an age in which seemingly archaic religious symbols contribute to how people orient themselves, respond to, and explain things in the world. Drawing from Paul Ricoeur’s early texts on religion, symbolism, evil, and defilement, I analyze three...

Determining Project Contingency Reserve Using a Fuzzy Arithmetic-Based Risk Analysis Method
Download2020-01-01
Fateminia, Seyed Hamed, Siraj, Nasir Bedewi, Fayek, Aminah Robinson, Johnston, Andrew
Traditional techniques for estimating contingency reserve fail to capture subjective uncertainties and expert knowledge, and they rely on historical data. This paper proposes a fuzzy risk analysis model (FRAM) that uses fuzzy arithmetic to analyze risk and opportunity events and determine...

Hybrid fuzzy system dynamics model for analyzing the impacts of interrelated risk and opportunity events on project contingency
Download2020-07-23
Siraj, Nasir B., Fayek, Aminah Robinson
Traditional risk analysis techniques are ineffective for capturing the dynamic causal interactions and subjective uncertainties involved in assessing risk and opportunity events since they treat risks independently and rely on the availability of sufficient historical data. In this paper, a...

Fall 2019
The unique nature of construction projects and the uncertainties encountered during project execution make construction a highly-risk prone industry. Risks on construction projects (especially large-scale projects) are extremely complex and highly dynamic, and substantial interrelationships exist...

Fall 2012
Project risks and uncertainties cause unpredictable project performance. This research intended to demonstrate that project control can be improved with the proceeding of a project, by exploiting new, available project information, and reducing uncertainties. The purpose of this study was to...
