Deriving a reliable earthwork job cost estimate entails analysis of the interaction of numerous variables defined in a highly complex and dynamic system. Using simulation to plan earthwork haul jobs delivers high accuracy in cost estimating. However, given practical limitations of time and expertise, simulation remains prohibitively expensive and rarely applied in the construction field. The development of a pragmatic tool for field applications that would mimic simulation-derived results while consuming less time was thus warranted. In this research, a spreadsheet based analytical tool was developed using data from industry benchmark databases (such as CAT Handbook and RSMeans). Based on a case study, the proposed methodology outperformed commonly used estimating methods and compared closely to the results obtained from simulation in controlled experiments.

This paper presents a theoretical solution of a reinforcement-to-concrete interface model under pull-push loading. Expressions for the interfacial shear stress distribution and load-displacement history are derived for different loading stages. The full debonding propagation process is discussed in detail and the analytical solutions are verified by comparing with existing theoretical models. Results of the analytical solution are presented to illustrate how the bond length and local bond-slip law affect the interfacial bond behavior. While the case study in this paper is on textile reinforced concrete, the analytical solution is equally valid to similar mechanical cases such as rebar reinforced concretes.

The present paper addresses torsion instability at the touch down point during installation of offshore cables and flexible pipes. A model for installation instability analysis is established on the basis of standard co-rotated beam elements. The model is validated with respect to the Greenhill analytical solution as well as results obtained for the linear elastic case reported in literature. A case study is then carried out to investigate the effects of cross-section friction moment, inherent torque and vessel motion. This is then used as basis for a proposed design criteria and recommended analysis procedures for evaluating kink formation of offshore flexibles during installation.

This work investigate, An idea of checking accuracy of algorithms from mathematical black box by means of residual functions. Lorenz system is used as case study as the chaotic system does not have analytical solution. The numerical procedures examined include BDF, Adams method and Implicit Runge Kutta methods. The interval of numerical results is t ∈ [0; 10].
