Assessment of Viscoelastic Properties of Drilling Fluids and their Impact on Hole Cleaning Capacity in Horizontal Directional Drilling
DownloadFall 2022
Trenchless construction technologies are a group of construction methods that use strategies to minimize or eliminate surface excavation. Horizontal directional drilling (HDD) is one commonly used trenchless method and can be used HDD to install underground pipelines and conduits. Additionally,...

Asset Levels of Service-based Decision Support System for Municipal Infrastructure Investment
DownloadSpring 2010
The single biggest challenge facing municipalities today is a shortage of funds and labor for upgrading and expanding aging infrastructure. This continued lack of funding impairs the municipalities’ ability to maintain desired levels of service. Over the last decade, many Canadian municipalities...

Asymmetric Driver Behaviour-Based Algorithms for Estimating Real-Time Freeway Operational Capacity
DownloadFall 2013
To mitigate recurrent and non-recurrent congestion, and to make full use of limited roadway capacity, numerous Active Traffic Demand Management (ATDM) strategies have been proposed, developed and implemented. Segment capacity, a basic input of ATDM predictive models, has been commonly considered...

Automatic Detection of Underground Objects in Ground Penetrating Radar Images using Machine Learning
DownloadFall 2021
The population increase has stimulated the need for the creation and expansion of existing urban infrastructures such as sewer, water, power and telecommunication lines. In order to support this need, multiple efforts to find sustainable solutions that support the urbanization trend have been...
