This thesis prepares a training exercise scenario for the Navy's Regional Wartime Construction Manager - Mediterranean (RWCM). The RWCM is a reserve organization which has the responsibility for wartime or contingency construction management. To aid in the training exercise cf the management of resources, a Resource Cost Model is developed. First, a context for the use of the model is provided by examining the two funds used in contingency construction; Operations and Maintenance (0 & M) and Military Construction (MILCON). Next, the policies of Titles 10 and 41 of the U.S. Code, which permit the use of unobligated MILCON funds and deficiency spending, are discussed. Finally, the direct labor and overhead costs of the RWCM1 staff, the deputy, and the area managers are estimated. The total cost is estimated to range from $12.5 to $15.2 million per year.

Abstract:
The Solar Tower Atmospheric Cherenkov Effect Experiment (STACEE) is a ground based gamma ray telescope which studies active galatic nuclei (AGNs). As a ground based experiment, data quality is directly related to atmospheric conditions. This thesis describes the process of verifying the reliability of astronomical weather predictions made by the Canadian Meteorological Service (CMS). This includes a description of the construction, calibration, and operation of a cloud detector at McGill University in Montreal, Canada. Cloud cover data was collected from the beginning of September, 2003, to the beginning of November 2003. These data were compared to cloud cover weather predictions made by the CMS. A blind analysis consisted of scaling the CMS and real data, and calculating the correlation coefficient between these two sets of data. The correlation between the predictions and real sky conditions was 0.4622, well above the 0.1% significance level of 0.1906 Thus the CMS is determined to be a reliable weather predictor, and useful to the STACEE group.

The practical usage of unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs) is limited by vehicle and operation cost, difficulty in accurate navigation, and communication between the vehicle and operator. The "Rex 2" UUV employs a system design where a submersible is connected to a float at the water's surface by means of a tether. By maintaining a surface expression, high-bandwidth radio communication to the operator becomes possible, and GPS may be used for accurate navigation. This arrangement allows the freedom of movement characteristic of untethered autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), while maintaining the live operator control and communication found with tethered remotely operated vehicles (ROVs). Expanding on the design and field experiences with the MIT AUV Lab's first Reef Explorer UUV, Rex 2 was designed to be inexpensive, easy to deploy, adaptable to various payloads, and simple to use. Rex 2 was designed, built, and operated in a number of ocean field tests, validating the utility of the vehicle and system concept.

Abstract:
This thesis describes the design, construction and initial operation of the Canterbury University Stratosphere-Troposphere Atmospheric Radar (CUSTAR), which is capable of continuous measurement of the vertical wind profile from 3 to 15 km in altitude, with a temporal resolution of 2 minutes and a height resolution of 300 metres. A novel, cost-effective antenna array has been designed to maximise the effective aperture, while keeping side-lobes at a minimum. The beam pattern of the array has been investigated in great detail using astronomical radio sources. Vela XYZ and Centaurus A both pass directly over the radar site, and using these strong sources, the best estimate of the pointing angle of the beam, in the east-west plane, was found to be 0.01° ± 0.20° from the zenith. The best estimate of the half-power full-width of the antenna beam was found to be 6.51° ± 0.54°. The Canterbury University ST radar has been operating since September, 2002, during which time the tropopause height has been determined hourly. A seasonal variation in tropopause height of approximately 1 km between September/October and November/December was observed, which agrees with climatalogical radiosonde measurements performed in Christchurch. Comparisons were performed between the radar tropopause height and the tropopause height measured by radiosondes in three locations throughout New Zealand. It was found that the correlation between the radar and radiosonde tropopause heights was similar to the correlation between different radiosonde sites, suggesting that the radar is capable of finding the tropopause height with similar accuracy to radiosonde measurements. The structure of a cold front which passed over Christchurch on September 10, 2002, has been examined in detail using radar signal to noise ratio profiles. Gravity wave oscillations, that were most likely to be caused by orography, were observed underneath the frontal surface, which was found to have a slope of 0.4°. The wave activity was thought to occur due to the strong cross-mountain background wind and also the increase in atmospheric stability associated with the frontal passage.

Abstract:
The construction industry has consistently suffered the highest number of fatalities among all human involved industries over the years. Safety managers struggle to prevent injuries and fatalities by monitoring at-risk behavior exhibited by workers and equipment operators. Current methods of identifying and reporting potential hazards on site involve periodic manual inspection, which depends upon personal judgment, is prone to human error, and consumes enormous time and resources. This research presents a framework for automatic identification and analysis of potential hazards by analyzing spatio-temporal data from construction resources. The scope of the research is limited to human-equipment interactions in outdoor construction sites involving ground workers and heavy equipment. A grid-based mapping technique is developed to quantify and visualize potentially hazardous regions caused by resource interactions on a construction site. The framework is also implemented to identify resources that are exposed to potential risk based on their interaction with other resources. Cases of proximity and blind spots are considered in order to create a weight-based scoring approach for mapping hazards on site. The framework is extended to perform ``what-if'' safety analysis for operation planning by iterating through multiple resource configurations. The feasibility of using both real and simulated data is explored. A sophisticated data management and operation analysis platform and a cell-based simulation engine are developed to support the process. This framework can be utilized to improve on-site safety awareness, revise construction site layout plans, and evaluate the need for warning or training workers and equipment operators. It can also be used as an education and training tool to assist safety managers in making better, more effective, and safer decisions.

Abstract:
The objective of this study was to investigate the extent to which small to medium-sized building contractors beneficially utilise the financial management function in their enterprises to improve and ensure business sustainability. Financial management focuses on the principles of decision-making, which requires action, without perfect knowledge of the outcome. To effectively execute the financial function, using the primary inputs in decision-making, financial management requires the ability to: understand and interpret financial statements and reports; make reasoned and objective decisions in controlling the operations of the enterprise; have a thorough knowledge of the internal functioning of the enterprise; and have a thorough knowledge of current and expected future economic conditions in the external environment. To do this, requires an effectively applied financial management function in the enterprises, which includes the utilisation of the financial management criteria to ensure business sustainability. However, without an appreciation of what financial management is, how important financial management is, and how financial management must be applied in the enterprise, small to medium-sized building contractors will find it difficult to effectively perform the financial management function and its different activities. It was therefore important to determine how well owners and construction managers of the average small to medium-sized building contractor deal with and utilise the financial management function in their enterprises. Consequently, a survey was carried out amongst small to medium-sized building contractors in the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan Municipal (NMMM) area, which revealed information that was used to come to certain conclusions: Firstly, it can be concluded that the financial management function is generally exercised superficially. This is supported by the responses of small to medium-sized building contractors, which implied that more than half the contractors do not fully perform financial management tasks. Secondly, it was concluded that the financial management criteria generally do not play a role in the business sustainability considerations of small to medium-sized building contractors. This is supported by the results, which imply that more than half the contractors do not fully utilise the financial management criteria.

Abstract:
In order to achieve the stated goal of reducing the final closing procedure time cycle for construction projects at the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Odessa District, several standard operating procedures (SOPs) for project construction control and management had to be revised. Seemingly unrelated tasks created posterior chains of events that resulted in bottlenecks in the process and delayed final project closing. Four specific SOPs were identified and analyzed to determine which tasks required modification and what was expected from these modifications. A mission for each specified SOP was conceived and written to give a clear view of the intent of the procedure. Afterwards, district policies were drafted to provide the means to fulfill the intent. The procedural changes, compatible with TxDOT statewide procedures, allowed the time spent in the processes to remain the same but redistributed it to reduce the end-loading of the control process. The new SOPs require an even time distribution cyclically throughout the project. Control procedures are done only once, shortening the final closing procedure for projects by doing one-time, short, cyclical, consecutive control tasks of the same procedure throughout the life of the project, rather than doing some of them once cyclically and then again at the closing procedure and others just at the closing procedure. These changes resulted in a shorter end-cycle time, which substantially reduced the final closing procedure time for each project, without affecting the integrity and safeguards of the project. The changes resulted in more efficient and timely financial, managerial, and engineering control of projects. The procedures revised were (1) Review and Approval of Change Orders; (2) Review and Approval of Monthly Progress Estimates; (3) Review and Approval of Interim and Final Audits and Final Estimate; and (4) Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans (SW3P) Records Management and Auditing Procedures.

Full text
Abstract:
Power consumption is a major concern for modern processors. Voltage scaling is one of the most effective mechanisms to reduce power consumption. However, voltage scaling is limited by large memory structures, such as caches, where many cells can fail at low voltage operation. As a result, voltage scaling is limited by a minimum voltage (Vccmin), below which the processor may not operate reliably. Researchers have proposed architectural mechanisms, error detection and correction techniques, and circuit solutions to allow the cache to operate reliably at low voltages. Architectural solutions reduce cache capacity at low voltages at the expense of logic complexity. Circuit solutions change the SRAM cell organization and have the disadvantage of reducing the cache capacity (for the same area) even when the system runs at a high voltage. Error detection and correction mechanisms use Error Correction Codes (ECC) codes to keep the cache operation reliable at low voltage, but have the disadvantage of increasing cache access time. In this thesis, we propose a novel architectural technique that uses spare cache blocks to back up a set-associative cache at low voltage. In our mechanism, we perform memory tests at low voltage to detect errors in all cache lines and tag them as faulty or fault-free. We have designed shifter and adder circuits for our architecture, and evaluated our design using the SimpleScalar simulator. We constructed a fault model for our design to find the cache set failure probability at low voltage. Our evaluation shows that, at 485mV, our designed cache operates with an equivalent bit failure probability to a conventional cache operating at 782mV. We have compared instructions per cycle (IPC), miss rates, and cache accesses of our design with a conventional cache operating at nominal voltage. We have also compared our cache performance with a cache using the previously proposed Bit-Fix mechanism. Our result show that our designed spare cache mechanism is 15% more area efficient compared to Bit-Fix. Our proposed approach provides a significant improvement in power and EPI (energy per instruction) over a conventional cache and Bit-Fix, at the expense of having lower performance at high voltage.

Abstract:
Today’s quarries face a change in the operational processes, where the development of automated transport systems and machines have intensified the necessity for reliable and stable data transfer. Within the dynamic environment, with piles building up suddenly, frequently changing mining faces due to blasting, as well as a frequently changing general environment that affect the network coverage negatively, there is a need for a solution that can adapt to the changing environment. The aim of this research has been to investigate the requirements for a dynamic infrastructure, and develop a platform based on today’s available technical solution components that can act as a dynamic platform for the evolving autonomous quarry. This by also reducing the time the worker is exposed to the harsh environment that the quarry presents. The research was conducted through a combination of a product development strategy and Design Research Methodology to develop a concept that fulfills the customer needs that are identified. An iterative process, where the needs were translated in to prototypes, has created learnings through every step of the development process. The result is a relocatable platform for communications relay, which is mounted on a trailer with a fixed mast to distribute short-wave communications in the area where the mobile unit is needed. The trailer is equipped with a four-point leveling system that also act as a stabilization system for the unit and ensures that the platform maintains a horizontal plane at all times. This platform is a first step towards a fully autonomous management of the communication infrastructure which in the future will be needed when a stable process and connection is necessary in the frequently changing environment. The relocatable platform is a necessity for adaption of the short-wave communication in the constantly changing environment. Since this is a first iteration and concept in the development of a dynamic platform, extensive field tests are required to determine which subcomponents are in need of further development or optimization. The completed prototype for the platform is functional and field ready for further testing in its real environment for further collecting of data points. This concept is a subcomponent of a larger system, where the goal is to increase the productivity and reduce the environmental impact from today’s quarry industry. Through reduction of human interaction and management of the relocation of the mobile unit, the workers safety is increased and the harsh environmental exposure is reduced.

Abstract:
Degradation of the nation's waters continues to be a problem and urban runoff is a large contributor to it. New stormwater management policies stress the importance of using stormwater control practices that reduce the quantity and improve the quality of stormwater runoff. The new approaches tend to emphasize small-scale, on-site practices over large scale. Yet to achieve water quality benefits, stormwater control practices must be maintained over time. Maintenance costs of these facilities, however, are poorly understood. A case study of five municipalities around the United States is used to estimate inspection and enforcement costs for each case site. Maintenance activities and costs were collected at the case sites for the following stormwater controls: dry ponds, wet ponds, wetlands, bioretention facilities, sand filters, and infiltration trenches. Cost estimates indicate that inspection and enforcement is not influenced by type. Maintenance cost estimates change depending on the BMP type. Estimated annual post-construction costs applied to a hypothetical 1,000-acre indicate that moving from large-scale to small-scale stormwater controls has a large impact in terms of financial obligation.

Langmuir probe diagnostic systems presently employed on Alcator C-Mod and elsewhere generally suffer from a severe limitation: unless multiple electrode or high-frequency bias techniques are employed, these systems can not resolve the rapid changes in plasma electron temperature, floating potential and ion saturation current that are associated with plasma turbulence. Moreover, no existing system can provide real-time output of these three parameters using a single electrode. To remedy this limitation, an advanced, high-bandwidth Langmuir probe system has been constructed for Alcator C-Mod using state-of-the-art design tools and components. The system produces a fast-switched, three-state probe bias waveform and employs a new method for outputting plasma conditions in real-time, a 'Mirror Langmuir Probe' (MLP), which utilizes high-bandwidth bipolar transistors to electrically simulate a Langmuir probe's response. Detailed information on the design, construction and performance of this new diagnostic is described in this thesis, representing the first proof-of-principle demonstration of the MLP technique. The MLP system was found to meet all the performance goals set forth at the beginning of the project: real-time output of electron temperature, floating potential and ion saturation current, ability to track changes in plasma parameters within a ~1 [mu]s timescale, while utilizing only a single Langmuir electrode. The system was tested using an 'electronic Langmuir probe' and also using an actual Langmuir probe in Alcator C-Mod. In both cases, the system accurately locked onto changing plasma conditions (< ~5% error in outputted parameters), with the exception of some severe transient events found in C-Mod plasmas (ELMs), which challenged the system's accuracy.
(cont.) Further refinements to the system have been identified to handle such cases. The MLP clearly demonstrated superior performance to existing Langmuir probe systems on Alcator C-Mod and should enable researchers to study edge plasma turbulence in much greater detail in the future.

Over the next few years, major investments in healthcare buildings is to be performed. Most surgical theaters are in need of technological upgrades as the technology is outdated. In most cases not only a refurbishment is performed but also an expansion. The basis for expansion, is due to a large increased number of patients, but also to the complexity of the refitment. Partly it's because evacuations are difficult to implement and the disturbance that occurs in conjunction with the refitment. Löwenströmska hospital undergoing a technical upgrad. The hospital has a relatively small operation department, and during the summer the business may be closed. Rebuilding in stages is done to rehabilitate the department technically. Work is underway for four summers and covers a total refurbishment of the premises. Although shutdown is possible, the project is still complex. The purpose of this study is to examine whether other construction methods than rebuilding had been of value to the surgical department at Löwenströmska hospital. The goal is to overlook the efficiency of production, reduce the complexity added through the conversion, and compare the methods economically. Methods that have been examined are a new construction of a department, new construction with partial conversion and modules. The work is also carried out to facilitate the choice of method for future projects. The basis of the work lies in discussions and interviews with persons involved in the project. And review of blueprints and technical specifications . The conclusion of this study is that depending on the chosen construction method various advantages is gained. Depending on the circumstances and opportunities provided , all results provide beneficial solutions. Therefore, all investigated methods individually reviewed for similar projects.

Abstract:
The Cheviot Coal Mine Project, operated by Elk Valley Coal Corporation’s Cardinal River Operations (CRO), is located approximately 250 km west of Edmonton, Alberta. It is in the Subalpine Natural Subregion of the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains at an elevation of 1650 to 1900 m. At its closest point, the mineral surface lease boundary lies 3 km east of the Jasper National Park border. Following nearly 10 years of environmental assessments and extensive regulatory processes, approvals were issued to begin development of the Cheviot Mining area in late 2003. This new metallurgical coal mine is located approximately 20 km south of the existing CRO processing plant. A key aspect of the mine development, and source of opposition for environmental activist groups, was the need for construction of approximately 13 km of new haul road to access the Cheviot development. Initiated in early 2004 and largely completed in 2005, this new haul road is located in the McLeod River valley. To address environmental conditions, this development implemented several mitigation programs and strategies, including extensive efforts to avoid in-stream disturbance and water quality impacts. A water management program was initiated to ensure containment and controls for all drainage wastewater. Mitigative measures were employed to reduce both ecological and species specific impacts. Concurrently, traffic/wildlife mitigation programs were developed and implemented to mitigate risk for incidents along the operating haul road. The construction of the haul road within the river valley required the temporary closure and relocation of an adjacent seasonal public road. Interim measures were required to ensure that stakeholders were permitted periodic passage through the active construction area until CRO could re-establish the public road. Construction occurred through a period of intense litigation and regulatory challenges by determined environmental groups and intense multi-stakeholder interest. Construction activities accomplished two milestones: allowing successful first coal delivery from the Cheviot Pit in October 2004, and successful re-opening of the public road by Victoria Day in May 2005. In 2005, reclamation activities were initiated. The haul road and county road in the McLeod River Valley, sharing a parallel alignment, have been both extensively and successfully utilized. This presentation will outline and discuss some of the project objectives, field challenges, and key stakeholder and environmental management issues that were encountered and addressed through CRO’s adaptive management process in the construction and reclamation of the Cheviot haul road.

Computer simulation has been applied on construction operation for many decades. For finding out how to change operation processes or choosing which resource combination would improve system’s performance, simulation has to run all possible alternatives of resource combination. Therefore, simulation is not considered as an optimization technique. Since Holland proposed Genetic Algorithms (GAs) in 1975, GAs has been widely used for solving optimization problems in different research areas and gaining good performance. This research presents a general-purpose computer simulation system used in construction simulation that applies GAs as a pre-processor for filtering the resource combination that has good influence on system performance. Then, simulation can be treated as an optimization technique for selecting good resource combinations to improve the performance of construction operations. A CYCLONE-based computer simulation system COST (Construction Operation Simulation Tool) is adopted for integrating with GAs and the new system is named as GA-COST. Case run for verifying the effects of adopting GAs to enhance the optimization capability of computer simulation system shows positive conclusion.

Currently, integrated applications for construction operation simulation and 3D visual technology are mainly used during the post-processing phase of simulation operations. In other words, 3D animations are used to illustrate the detailed perceptual intuition of simulated results. However, text files and modules in 2D flow diagrams are more commonly used to define the issue being simulated during the pre-processing phase of the simulation. This type of simulation fails to illustrate the detailed perceptual intuition of the issues being simulated, and its structure also makes it difficult to synchronize and integrate with the actual field status for evaluation. This study proposed a construction module for 3D visual construction operation simulations. The construction simulation modules being built are simulated 3D field settings which contain property parameters for each simulation component. These simulation components are integrated from the simulation data and are then integrated with Augmented Reality (AR) technology to allow the 3D module to be superimposed on photos or real-time images of the construction site. The integration of virtual and practical 3D field-setting simulations offers a detailed representation which matches the actual field setting. During the study, we analyzed and examined various simulation modules for construction programs and the types and ranges of parameters used for building the information system . The relationship between these 3D field-setting simulations were also analyzed and examined. After initial studies and planning, the classes and property parameters of each construction simulation module component were proposed, along with a standard operation procedure to build the simulation. Stroboscope software provided a text interface and we used it as the base system for engine development during construction simulation to represent the proposed module construction. 3D simulation modules were then built based on the proposed program, and the parameters of each module components were extracted during system conversion. These parameters were then entered as text files in the construction simulation program to perform analysis. After data analysis using the proposed system, the initial time for each machine and tooling component at each node were extracted from the output file. The 3D modules could then be directly illustrated as real time animation on the final field-setting simulation

Computer simulation is a valuable management tool which is well suited to the study of resource driven construction processes. It gives the analyst an insight into resource interaction and assists in identifying which factors in a problem domain are important. Simulation allows the modeler to experiment with and evaluate different scenarios. Normally, such experimentation and study would be too costly to be carried out in the real world. Interests have been generated since the introduction of CYCLONE methodology by Halpin in 1973, and been increasing with the development of many Windows-based construction simulation systems such as the COOPS, the DISCO, the Stroboscope, the SimCon, the Simphony. Numerous studies have been conducted to analyze the variety of construction operations including earth moving, pavement, tunneling, segmental construction of an elevated structure, and concrete placement in a high-rise building. The cyclic as well as the complex and dynamic aspects of construction operations make computer simulation a promising technique for the engineering analysis.Nevertheless, accessibility and usability of computer simulation techniques at the practitioner level create a barrier for its application. The practitioners who are conversant with construction operations frequently may see the use of simulation as "too difficult." Efforts need to be devoted to improving existing simulation systems, particularly the modeling elements, to facilitate their use in construction. This research is to study the various sets of modeling elements employed in the existing construction simulation systems, and to develop a new set of modeling elements which is simple and easy to use, and can meet the basic need for the planning and analysis of most construction operations. With the new set of modeling element, the accessibility of construction simulation can be enhanced.

In recent years, the domestic construction industry has gradually transformed and changed. Personnel management and management methods have been concerned more and more. The productivity has been the main factor of so many management approaches. Some researchers also focus on the management of personnel and productivity. They collect data on the operator posture during operations. When the operators are moving, they wear the accelerometers. The accelerometers collect the magnitude of the operator's body movement for the training of neural network modules. This research follows Fang (2015) and Yang (2016). It would continue to explore the application of acceleration and personnel postures in the construction of productive operations. We imitate the real work environment in the laboratory, we choose six working activities as the experimental targets, the subjects are asked to do these activities, and we collect the movements by accelerometers when they were moving. The six activities are: projecting of erection, bucket handling, reading drawings and calculation, brick stacking, and wall tile installation. We detect different movements from the different amplitudes on accelerometers, translate the data into matrixes. We use Back Propagation Neural Network to train the data, construct a module and test the module’s accuracy. Discuss the module’s errors and error ratios, and estimate the recommendations and impact on engineering productivity of accelerometer.

ABSTRACT Many transportation construction projects are performed in Taiwan. Bridge structure is often used in those projects. The critical activity for construction a bridge is the foundation construction. In foundation construction, pile casing is usually the first activity to be performed. Among different type of pile casing, all-casing pile is quite common used. The operations of all-casing pile include position, driving piles, as well as concrete placing that form the cyclic operations. Discrete event simulation technique is suitable in the analysis of system performance for the cyclic operations. This research takes WH33 viaduct foundation construction project as example to analyze the production rate and unit cost for all-casing pile operations. The computer simulation software COST developed based on CYCLONE discrete simulation methodology is used for facilitating the analysis. Several resource combinations are examined for replacing the original resource allocation. Simulation analysis shows one type of resource allocation that can conduct a better system performance, i.e., lower unit cost and higher production rate.

With the non-store marketing more and more developed, the expansion of the logistics scale is accompanied. Due to the limited scale, the outsourcing distribution is the majority in distribution of goods. This study focus on the performance evaluation by using data mining and value analysis. In evaluating the customer value, RFM is the most popular method used by the enterprise. However, this study adopts non-weighted RFM value in connection with the vehicle distribution characteristics which uses RFT clustering instead of the original RFM model. Rather than using the statistics average, this study concentrate on vehicle distribution characteristics (with more than one single value and the value difference) and use statistics mid-value to determine the three RFM variables. This study use customer value matrix proposed by Marcus (1998) that throughs the clustering for dividing the vehicles into different groups by using the historical transaction information fast clustering. By using the data mining to analyze the similarity of the products which could get a better recommendation information. The study analysis the product, vehicle, region and time period to propose a decision model, so that the manager can have a program to adjust the vehicle scheduling arrangements and which can assist the manager to have a reference to make a decision for the distribution.

Coordination has been regarded as a critical factor of construction projects. Because of uniqueness of construction projects and habits of engineers, coordination is not well planned. It is common that time and money are spent on coordination yet the performance is not as expected. This paper establishes coordinatin model and finds out operation mechanisms for construction projects. First, coordination needs were derived from work uncertainty and equivocality (U&E), and supply was offered by different methods engineers use to coordinate. Then ten on-going subway construction projects with different performances were selected as cases to investigate. A questionnaire was modified to quantify the project U&E, and a time sheet designed to collect contractor engineers’ work time spent on nine coordination methods. Based on the characteristics of these coordination methods, a questionnaire including coordination goals, the degree of goal achievement, adequate frequency or amount, coordination process, understanding of participants, and the possibility to be replaced by other methods, was designed and used to interview the contractors of these projects. The results of project nature analysis indicate that the project performance is not related to the level of U&E. Uncertainty of ten projects is higher than their equivocality. This means that the projects need data acquisition and analysis more than problem definition and interpretation. In the five sources of U&E, task interdependence and project environment received higer scores than the average, meaning construction interfaces bring higher U&E. In the nine coordination methods of the studied projects, site visit took up most time (24.7%), followed by correspondence (24.2%) and meetings (13.3%). The results of coordination goals and quality analysis indicate that written communication such as plans, schedules, and contract documents is more focused, which makes its preparation with purposes. Oral communication including meetings, informal discussion, and site visits has more purposes that is harder to meet coordination goals. The degree of goal achievement of site visits and written coordination was higher than 80% with replacement possibility lower than 40%, meaning these methods should be used seriously. Meetings and written correspondence have both higher replacement possibility and goal achievement, meaning their use should have adequate consideration. The frequency or amount of informal discussion, written correspondence, plans, and reports is unnecessarily high and should be reduced. After integrating the results of coordination needs and supply as well as coordination goals and quality, it was found the key of coordination is on handling equivocality. Contractors spending time on coordinating with the client, team members, and subcontractors should be consistent with coordination needs; and coordination goals should be adjusted based on U&E as well. When equivocality is high, spend more time on oral than written communication and have more goals of instruction and clarification. When equivocality is low, use more written communication and have more goals of facilitating, controlling and information distribution. Moreover, contractors should pay attention to coordinaton quality and goal achiverment while applying these methods. Based on the above findings, the coordinatin operation mechanism was derived to be applied on real projects. In coordination planning, coordinaton needs is surveyed and coordination methods are arranged. During executation, the information of coordination methods including time, goals, and quality is collected to identify their inappropriateness and problems, then adjustment and improvement follow. The coordination is continually planned and executed during the construction period.

Abstract:
This thesis focuses on design, dynamical simulation, operation and performance evaluation of a variable geometry manipulator used in space as well as ground based operations. The system is composed of a mobile base supporting two modules connected in a chain topology. Each module consists of two links: one free to slew while the other is permitted to deploy. The governing equations of motion for the planar dynamics of the manipulator system are obtained using the Lagrangian procedure. A Fortran computer program is written for the dynamical simulation of the system. The accuracy of the formulation and the validity of the computer simulation code are verified through energy conservation tests. An extensive parametric study follows which provides better appreciation of the complex interactions between the system variables, initial disturbances, manipulator maneuvers, as well as the revolute joints and pay load flexibility. It also identifies critical combinations of system parameters and maneuvers which may lead to an unacceptable response. Results indicate that the coupling effects together with the flexibility at the revolute joints have significant impact on the manipulator's performance. Obviously, this will affect the desired trajectory tracking by the end-effector, suggesting a need for a suitable control algorithm. This is achieved through the classical Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) control strategy. The design, construction and integration of a prototype manipulator system, which progressed concurrently with the numerical simulation phase are also described in detail. Finally, the numerically predicted results are compared with the prototype performance. The remarkable agreement tends to substantiate integrity of the prototype design and effective implementation of the controller. The study lays a sound foundation for further exploration of this class of novel manipulators.

Abstract Computer simulation has been used in the analysis and design of construction operation processes for many decades. The construction manager can use simulation for resource allocation to optimize performance of construction system. Normally, computer simulation has to run all possible alternatives of resource combination for analyze optimum problem. If the resource alternatives increase explosively, computer simulation will become inefficiency. In order to improve the efficiency of computer simulation in optimum problem, many researches use simple genetic algorithms to solve. However, the efficiency and accuracy of solve of simple genetic algorithms will decrease when the scale of simulated system increases. Fast messy genetic algorithm was proposed in recent for making up such defect. This research employs fast messy genetic algorithm to enhance the efficiency of optimization resource allocations for construction projects. Case studies show fast messy genetic algorithm can efficiently and accurately locate those resource combinations have better fitness value.

The traditional construction management measure for the public construction projects has failed to meet the needs due to the problems evolved from the recent down-sizing and re-structuring of the government in Taiwan. The employment of Professional Construction Management company (PCM company) is recognized as one of the best solutions by the authorized construction agencies, which have been short of professional man-power, to improve the execution effectiveness and quality of the public construction projects. The PCM had been used only at the stage of construction until became a more positive and impartial overall role to assist the agencies with limited resources in achieving the goal under much rapid-changing and complex environments for the public constructions. In accordance with the current system and regulations, the study analyzed and discussed the collected data related to the rule/code through case studies and the results of a survey from a various aspects of profession, to study the characteristics and applicable conditions of construction management “with construction supervision” or “without construction supervision”. The results of the study identified specific role of “construction supervision” in several models and the shortcomings during construction which need to be improved in order to better execute the projects. The study also developed criteria for determining the use of construction supervision based on the nature and conditions of the public construction projects. The results of the survey conducted in the study revealed that the majority (~71%) of the replied professions are in favor of using PCM with construction supervision included in the operation of the public construction projects in Taiwan.

This study uses the software FLUENT(used for computational fluid dynamics) to simulate flocculation (reaction) clarifier blanket inside Bansin water treatment plant. We first establish the geometric structure and mesh of the clarifier blanket, then provide feed velocity, concentration, impeller rotation, and operation conditions for the sludge blanket. Then we use the Eulerian multiphased model to calculate and analyze the flow field inside the water treatment plant. Next we explore flow field alterations resulting from changes in these five following variables: impeller rotational velocity, feed concentration, sludge blanket concentration and height, clarifier blanket structure, and temperature. Using the above calculations and analysis, we hope to obtain better water quality.   This study shows that high impeller rotational velocity causes the sludge blanket structure on the bottom of the tank to float and turn easily. With varying feed concentration, the only significant difference is in the initial effluent solid mass flux; Changes become less observable as time goes on. The height and concentration of the sludge blanket both correspond directly to the solid mass flux. Regarding changes in the geometric structure, we find that the smaller the angle of the reaction well, the longer the solid particles stay in the reaction well. Under the condition of constant daily water-processing quantity, larger feed diameter leads to better water quality. Lastly, temperature increases flow dynamic circulation. Thus, high temperature during the summer may lead to difficulties in processing water quantity.

In the third quarter of year 2008, the global financial turmoil is triggered by a liquidity crisis started by subprime mortgage in the United States banking system. It has resulted in the collapse of large financial institutions, the bailout of banks by national governments and downturns in stock markets around the world. Governments and central banks responded with unprecedented fiscal stimulus, monetary policy expansion, and institutional bailouts. Situration has been slow down until fouth quarter of year 2009, the global market were suffering by financial turmoil. However, the adverse operating environment is the opportunity to examine the resilience of business operation performance. This study applies a financial statement of 21 listed construiction companies both on Taiwan and Mainland China during this period. This work recommend nine financial factors with the entropy weighted and TOPSIS method to evaluate the comprehensive index of operation performance in each company. The result revealed that by the contractor qualifications or niche markets, both large or small capital sum companies acquire higher rank of comprehensive index. These findings can explain why the medium capital sum companies try to find differentiation strategies and shift their business to that market.

[Objective] Most of the traditional construction site management only focus on the progress and quality of the project, even neglect the safety and health issues, resulting in occupational hazards higher than other industries. The accidents of construction sites due to disaster handling and investigation led to the operation of the pause and duration of delay and to pay the victims of the compensation and legal liability, so that the consequences are difficult to assess. Therefore, in order to implement the safety and hygiene management of the construction industry, this study explores the hazard identification and risk assessment of the construction site, and achieves the goal of safety and health management, so as to protect the labor and the sustainable development of the enterprise. [Method] The information of the operation of a construction site, equipment, or regional coverage of routine and non-routine activities, and facilities, equipment and materials, etc. is filled in the form of "Environmental Health and Safety Management Responsibility / Regional / Equipment Inventory". The on-site inspection interviews or discussion of the way was utilized to identify possible personal injury, unhealthy, property damage, or damage to the operating environment of the various potential hazards and other results. The information was filled in the form of "occupational safety hazard identification and risk assessment data sheet". This form is based on the risk acceptance level of three level classification: 1. not follow the laws and regulations, 2. the key control projects identified by each department, 3. the total risk is higher than the standard required by Environmental Health Safety Management Review Committee proposed "EHS high risk control table".
