Temporary Facilities?Making It Happen, Organization and Logistics
As construction projects become larger, more complex and are constructed both faster and under more adverse conditions--the use of temporary facilities is more prevalent. Temporary facilities...
Application of Statistical Distribution Theory to Launch-on-Time for Space Construction Logistic Support
The Center for Space Construction (CSC) has acquired historical launch vehicle data for analyzing space launch vehicle logistic support of space construction. This analysis will include...
Normal Accidents and Logistics in Space Operations
Unpredictable systemic accidents, normal accidents, will occur in highly-complex large-scale space systems. To mitigate the catastrophic consequences of normal accidents, containment engineering...
Space Station - New Venture/Old Problem
Four key operations-related costs are associated with the Space Station: (1) transportation, (2) data management, (3) sustaining engineering, and (4) integrated logistics. Life cycle cost...
Logistics Support of Space Facilities
The logistic support of space facilities is described, with especial attention given to the problem of sizing the inventory of ready spares kept at the space facility. Where possible,...
Antarctic Research and Lunar Exploration: Useful Parallels
Review of the process of scientific exploration in the Antarctic may provide insights into areas that might pose problems to man when further exploration of the lunar surface is begun....
Logistics for Structures Sealifted to the Arctic
Sohio has successfully pioneered the development of the Prudhoe Bay reservoir by sealifting prebuilt oil processing facilities from the lower 48 states. The experience thus gained is being...
Predicting Areas of Groundwater Contamination
Logistic regression has been used to estimate the probability that a metropolitan area will contain one or more water supply sites with contamination by one or more of six frequently occurring...
