Incorporating Sustainability In Facility Layout Planning Algorithms And Assessing Hybridization Techniques On An Egyptian Case Study, Islam Atia
Theses and Dissertations
Due to the growing consequences faced as a result of global warming and climate change; humanity has come together to take an inclusive stance to combat this serious phenomena and work towards a more sustainable future. Large amounts of carbon dioxide emissions are a major contributor to global warming, and a vast proportion of this emission come from industrial and commercial facilities. Hence, if industrial facilities are built with a larger focus on carbon footprint, it will yield a significant reduction in global emissions throughout the lifetime of the facility and will constitute a huge milestone in the journey to …
Resources Based Planning Framework For Infrastructure Maintenance And Rehabilitation Projects, Heba Gad
Resources Based Planning Framework For Infrastructure Maintenance And Rehabilitation Projects, Heba Gad
Theses and Dissertations
Infrastructure maintenance and rehabilitation projects involve activities scattered over a large geographical area (e.g., scattered road segments maintenance, telecom towers maintenance program, etc.). Planning such projects require a resource-based approach that accounts for the implications of resource mobility between activities’ locations in terms of time & cost. Existing scheduling techniques fall short of addressing the unique challenges of the scattered nature of these projects in combination with organization's limited resources availability. To address this need, this research presents a resources-based planning framework for infrastructure maintenance and rehabilitation scattered projects with the objective of enhancing resources utilization achieving time and cost …
