Revitalising abandoned heritage villages: the case of Tinbak, Qatar
(
Cogent OA
, 2021 , Article)
As an archaeological heritage, valuable heritage settlements entail preservation to avoid destruction and eventual extinction. Intending to propose a study for revitalising heritage villages, Tinbak is selected as a case ...
A hybrid approach using entropy and TOPSIS to select key drivers for a successful and sustainable lean construction implementation
(
Public Library of Science
, 2020 , Article)
Successful implementation of the lean concept as a sustainable approach in the construction industry requires the identification of critical drivers in lean construction. Despite this significance, the number of in-depth ...
Dataset for influence of visual and haptic feedback on the detection of threshold forces in a surgical grasping task
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Dataset)
The data is related to minimal force thresholds perception in robotic surgical grasping applications. The experimental setup included an indenter-based haptic device acting on the fingertip of a participant and a visual ...
Cost-benefit analysis of BIM-enabled design clash detection and resolution
(2020 , Article)
Building Information Modelling (BIM) is increasingly deployed as part of the processes in Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry projects. While the benefits of BIM have been extensively proclaimed, ...
Indoor environmental quality (IEQ) analysis of a two-sided windcatcher integrated with anti-short-circuit device for lowwind conditions
(
Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI)
, 2020 , Article)
Windcatchers are considered as promising passive ventilation and cooling strategy, but the ventilation performance of this system is still of concern in areas with low speed and unpredictable winds. The air short circuiting ...
Sustainability Assessment in Aviation Industry: A Mini- Review on the Tools, Models and Methods of Assessment
(
IEOM Society International
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Sustainable aviation practices have significantly reduced Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions over the years. However, these practices have not shaped the aviation industry in achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development ...
Towards a simplified technique for crack recognition in gearing systems
(
Academie des sciences
, 2022 , Article)
This paper presents a simple and effective method to identify and quantify the existence of cracks in the teeth roots of spur gears. The problem was numerically analyzed through finite element-based simulation with SolidWorks ...
An Adaptive Neurofuzzy Inference System for the Assessment of Change Order Management Performance in Construction
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2021 , Article)
Change order management is a major challenge in the construction business due to the associated disputes, claims, productivity losses, delays, and cost implications. As a result, effective change order management (COM) is ...
Pre-Transit Oriented Development Assessment Guidelines for Assessing Metro Station Dependent Component Area
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) assessment models are commonly used to assess existing and planned metro station catchment areas. Elements like diversity, density, design, destination, distance, and demand management ...
Efficient system reliability-based design optimization study for replaced hip prosthesis using new optimized anisotropic bone formulations
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
An efficient reliability algorithm is developed to transfer the system reliability problem to a single-component reliability problem, considering the uncertainty of loading cases and the material properties. The main ...
