Case Study of Earthworks Management on Hu-Shan Reservoir
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Engineering and Technology - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Present study investigated the earthworks (storage and transportation) management on large scale project (Hu-Shan reservoir) performance (cost and time). After apply the planning structure which developed in present study. Compare to the previous earthworks projects. Results showed the cost and time were reduced about 8% and 7%, respectively. For large scale earthworks project, this result means saving a lot of money and time. Further, this result also might suggest that this planning structure could apply to others large scale earthworks projects of bridge, harbor, disaster prevention, and dredge engineering. Keywords: Earthwork management; Project performance.

A PRP-FR Hybrid Conjugate Gradient Algorithm for Unconstrained Optimization
In this paper, a modified hybrid conjugate gradient algorithm is proposed for solving unconstrained optimization problems, which avoid the drawbacks of PRP and FR. The global convergence of this method is established und...
Diagnosis method of casing damage based on BP neural network
One of the major problems faced by the oilfields in the middle time is casing damage. The neural network, the improvement BP as well as the three-layer feed forward neural network applied in damage diagnosis is a key way...
Effects of Heat and Mass Flux to MHD Flow in Vertical Surface with Radiation Absorption
MHD flow of an electrically conducting, incompressible, viscous fluid past an impulsively moving isothermal vertical plate through porous medium in the presence of uniform suction, radiation absorption and chemical react...
New Matrix Representation of Kinematic Chains and Determination of Isomorphism
This paper presents a new method for representing a kinematic chain by a matrix known as chain identification matrix(CIM),which uniquily represents nonisomorphic chains as the eigen vectors of the eigen values of the cha...
Hydrodynamic study of multi-phase semi-fluidization with activated alumina beads of 2-6 mm size
For application of semi-fluidized bed of activated alumina beads in different processes and operations, the hydrodynamic studies have been made using five different sizes of activated alumina beads (2-6 mm diameter) as b...
