Abstract:

The objective of this study is to propose an approach that assists facility managers in obtaining the needed information to establish a proactive roof maintenance plan. Two main methodologies are used in this research. The first approach, Historical Maintenance Data Analysis (HMDA), investigates and pinpoints the root cause of roof leaks by thoroughly collecting and analyzing roof maintenance records. HMDA hypothesizes that a mathematical model can be developed to reveal relationships between potential roof leak causes and leak incidences. The second approach, Roof Service Life Prediction

Abstract:

Maintenance is a continuous process implemented by Facilities Management (FM) providers as one their core competences to effectively manage and maintain critical assets throughout the whole life of a building and prevent downtime of essential systems. Maintenance actions are usually categorised into two main streams: corrective (CM) and precautionary (PM). In CM equipment is repaired after a failure occurs (i.e. reactively). In contrast, PM is applied based on a fixed-time or age-schedule (i.e. preventive). However, a subdivision of PM that is widely discussed in literature, yet rarely impleme

Abstract:

This treatise is a study of the methodology and the thought processes followed when buildings are designed, in order to determine to what extent, if any, designers consider the need for buildings to be maintained long after they walk off site and part with the project. The concept of taking future maintenance requirements into account as part of the design process is referred to as “designing for maintenance” (DFM). It can be assumed that, from a professional perspective, designers must keep the client’s needs in mind when designing. Facilities managers face the challenge of balancing a budget

This work considers how it is that company structures, based on hierarchy, are able to persist over time. This question, though simple, is basic to industrial society, since although business organizations do in general operate with sufficient cohesion to produce their goods/services for sale, the traditional hierarchical structure has on occasions come under attack. Our aim will be to establish and understand the conditions under which hierarchy is able to persist - or conversely, under what conditions we might expect it to come apart.

Abstract:

Globalization has increased the pressure on organizations and companies to operate in the most efficient and economic way. This tendency promotes that companies concentrate more and more on their core businesses, outsource less profitable departments and services to reduce costs. By contrast to earlier times, companies are highly specialized and have a low real net output ratio. For being able to provide the consumers with the right products, those companies have to collaborate with other suppliers and form large supply chains. An effect of large supply chains is the deficiency of high stocks

La struttura della dissertazione è articolata in tre parti principali. La prima consiste in una panoramica sulla manutenzione e sui metodi più comuni che ne fanno parte, focalizzandosi specialmente su quelli che sono più attinenti ai sistemi esperti. Nella seconda parte il lettore può trovare le tipologie, le caratteristiche rilevanti e la storia dei sistemi esperti. L’ultima parte della tesi è dedicata allo sviluppo del caso di studio, introdotto

Abstract:

The shoot apical meristem (SAM) is the structure that shapes the aerial architecture of the plant, by producing lateral organs throughout development. In the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, the SAM is always identifiable as a characteristic dome, whether it is found in the centre of a rosette of leaves or at the tip of an inflorescence. When senescence occurs and organogenesis ceases, the now inactive SAM still retains its characteristic appearance and it is never consumed into a terminal structure, such as a flower. Mutant plants that undergo termination represent a valuable tool to underst

Abstract:

Many successful interventions are not maintained after researchers leave an organisation at the conclusion of a study. This research was conducted to assess the magnitude of this problem and determine which variables affect intervention maintenance. Maintenance was examined in a review and analysis of 125 applicable studies published in the Journal of Organizational Behavior Management from 1977 - 1999. Where necessary, authors of studies were contacted to determine the maintenance status of their intervention. The analysis found the extent of this problem in published studies is substantial.
