A microcomputer based numerical model designed to simulate the transport of substances within an estuary is presented. The Desktop Estuarine Transport MODel (DETMOD) features a Graphical...

Circulation and Flushing in Casco Bay, Maine
A modified 3-D hydrodynamic numerical model MECCA (Model for Estuarine and Coastal Circulation Assessment; Hess, 1989) has been applied to Casco Bay, Maine, with a horizontal resolution...

Adaptive Instructor Model for an Engineering ITS
To develop intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) for engineering via computer technology, a model of how engineers learn as well as methods in which instruction should occur must be captured...

Best Route GIS System
A GIS systems was developed for determining the best route to travel, so that the traveler will travel to a number of cities in such a way that he/she will visit each city only once and...

GIS Modeling of Neo-Traditional Neighborhood Development
Emerging strategies for land use development suggest that neo-traditional neighborhoods promote increased accessibility with reduced traffic congestion compared to current suburban developments....

Three-dimensional Modeling for Improving Construction Process Performance
This paper presents experimentation regarding a model for deciding the optimum number of resources that should be allocated to a project. Measures of task and process flexibility are used...

Time-Space Tradeoff Strategies for Space-Schedule Construction
Space availability on a construction site can have a major impact on the efficiency and constructability of a project. Especially when space is limited, tradeoffs between activity sequencing,...

Integrated Product Models
A review is made of current STEP standards efforts to develop integrated product models, using the Express language. An example of a building wall is presented, along with some general...

Extended Topology in Building Design Systems
An important aspect of CAD systems for building design concerns the description of the form of the building, the definition of operation on that form and the way these operations are offered...

Integrated System Environment Using an Object-Oriented Project Model with Multiple-Views
This paper describes the development, present status and future directions for PMAPM, an object-oriented project model designed to facilitate information sharing along the paths through...

Estimating Sediment Relative Density Using an Impact Core Sampler and Wave Equation-based Pile Analysis
This paper presents a case history in which soil sample drive resistance was modeled with a wave equation-based pile analysis computer program to estimate in situ sediment relative densities...

Application of the FESWMS-2DH Software to Solve the Navigation Problem at EL-Menya Bridge in Egypt
The purpose of this paper is to introduce the application of a two-dimensional Finite Element Surface Water Modelling System on a navigation problem located along the Nile river in front...

Toward Integrated Models for Structural Design
The paper presents research toward integrated product and process models for structural design in which and each entity in the product model describes information used by activities in...

Creating Construction Documents from 3-D Computer Models
Structural engineering tasks can be broken down into three major phases; analysis, design and construction document production. Although automation techniques have focused on these phases...

Multimedia Based System for Analyzing Production Organizations
Construction operations involve many complex operations and relationships. This paper deals with data gathering for productivity improvement-studies, process modelling and simulation of...

Comparing Two OODBMSs: An Application Developer's Perspective
Advances in database management technology lead application developers to consider new implementation options such as Object-Oriented Database Management Systems (OODBMSs). Current OODBMS...

A Sketch is Worth a Thousand Rule Traces
The paper presents techniques for augmenting communication among building designers by providing (1) interdisciplinary explanation facilities to visualize and annotate CAD models, such...

A Formal Product/Process Model for Engineering
This paper describes an extended object data model which is suitable for modeling complex design information. The model provides extensions to object oriented model by providing explicit...

Macroelement Model for Shear Wall Analysis
An efficient modeling scheme for static and dynamic analysis of reinforced concrete shear walls in the inelastic range is presented. The macroelement model of the shear wall is composed...
