Abstract:

The main objective of this thesis is to study, investigate and introduce new methods for testing and monitoring slipformed concrete and produce a numerical model to simulate the thermal behavior of the concrete during a slipforming operation. The goal is to make the slipforming technique more efficient and economical and therefore potentially more attractive to the construction industry. The attempt is to bring the slipforming operation from an area of experience and empirical science, closer to an area of scientific concrete technology. Of special interest is the monitoring and controlling of

Abstract:

Data mining operations have become prevalent as they can extract trends or patterns that help in taking good business decisions. Often they operate on large historical databases or data warehouses to obtain actionable knowledge or business intelligence that helps in taking well informed decisions. In the data mining domain there came many tools to perform data mining operations. These tools are best used to obtain actionable knowledge from data. Manually doing this is not possible as the data is very huge and takes lot of time. Thus the data mining domain is being improved in a rapid

Despite the recent Asian economics crisis (1997-1998), air traffic volumes in Asia- Pacific will continue to grow over the next decade. As the market is becoming more and more attractive, the competition amongst the airlines operating in the region has challenged the Southeast Asian carriers. The demanded quality of product/service by the customer has become a crucial issue. The ability to provide quality products and services is increasingly becoming a key determinant of an airline's business success. The quality of any organisation's products and services is determined by the core business o

Aim: To investigate methods that can be used to predict and manage the effects of manufacturing variability on product quality during the design process. Methodology: The preliminary investigation is a review and analysis of probabilistic methods and quality metrics. Based on this analysis, convenient robustification methods are developed. In addition, the nature of the flow of variability in a system is considered. This is then used to ascertain the information needed for an input variable when predicting the quality of a proposed design. The second, and major, part of the investigation is a

Statistics of maritime casualties continue to be the driver of improvement of human performance or rather reduction of human error.

But if the amount of the increased costs of training is less than the funds to be saved by avoiding accidents, it will justi
