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 ...
Computational wind engineering using finite element package ADINA
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)
Design of tall and long span structures is governed by the wind forces. Inadequate research in the field of wind dynamics has forced engineers to rely on design codes or wind tunnel tests for sufficient data. The present ...
The accessibility and development impacts of new transit infrastructure : the Circle Line in Chicago
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)
This thesis explores the impacts of new transit infrastructure projects on the land use transportation system. Land use and transportation systems are inherently interconnected and form an integrated system; and transport ...
Developing a contactless bankcard fare engine for Transport for London
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)
This thesis investigates the design of a fare engine which operates within the constraints of using contactless bankcards as a fare instrument, while satisfying the complex current and future fare requirements of Transport ...
Trihalomethane formation in rural household water filtration systems in Haiti
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)
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
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)
Calibration of mesoscopic traffic simulation models for dynamic traffic assignment
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)
Household adoption of ecological sanitation : an assessment of agricultural value and user perspectives in Nyanza Province, Kenya
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)
Ecological sanitation, or ecosan, refers to a range of sanitation technologies in which human excreta is recovered and retained on-site, and eventually reused. However, when a culture does not have a tradition of reusing ...
