Calibration of dynamic traffic assignment models with point-to-point traffic surveillance
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)
Accurate calibration of demand and supply simulators within a Dynamic Traffic Assignment (DTA) system is critical for the provision of consistent travel information and efficient traffic management. Emerging traffic ...
Quantifying the source of reentrant line variability and the effects of processes standardization on tool availability variability
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)
This thesis quantifies the sensitivity of tool availability variability with respect to product throughput and examines how Intel's High Precision Maintenance initiative can be used to minimize these effects. Tools with ...
Methodology for achieving GASB 34 modified approach compliance using U.S. Navy "Smart Base" facility management practices
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)
Experiments on waves and currents over a movable bed

Transit preferential treatment : a public policy-making perspective
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)
Buses and in general at-grade public transportation remain the most important component of transit services in all the urban areas, whether they are feeder to a heavy rail system or an independent network. However, the ...
Understanding transit travel behavior : value added by smart cards
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)
Travel behavior represents a particularly complex area of research in transportation given the interaction between transport supply characteristics and the user perceptions which guide his/her decisions. Thanks to the ...
Application of a gradient-based algorithm to structural optimization
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)
Optimization methods have shown to be efficient at improving structural design, but their use is limited in the engineering practice by the difficulty of adapting state-of-the-art algorithms to particular engineering ...
Investigation into dense non-aqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) transport and remediation in vertical fractures
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)
The application of "Decision Aids for Tunneling (DAT)" to the Sucheon tunnel in Korea
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)
The Decision Aids for Tunneling (DAT) allow engineers to simulate tunnel construction considering uncertainties in geology and construction processes for a given tunnel project and to obtain, as a result, distributions of ...
Web-based online tools for a shake table laboratory
