Japanese version of private finance initiative and future prospects of the market in the conduction industry
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)During the past decade in Japan, the sluggish economy has increased pressure on the nation's finance and had a negative impact on the public investment decision of the government. This has led to a reduced construction ... -
Job accessibility and journey to work : the case of Boston Metropolitan area
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)In this study, variations in levels of transit usage to work from block groups in the Boston metropolitan area were explored. The examination of the 2000 Census data showed that there were significant differences in the ... -
Joint analysis during vault lowering of the Officer Sean Collier Memorial
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)The unique geometry and indeterminacy of the Collier Memorial make it a highly complex structure to analyze. During the critical vault-lowering phase of the construction of the memorial, joints were monitored to understand ... -
Joint calibration of a microscope traffic simulator and estimation of origin-destination flows
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)Microscopic Traffic simulators can be effectively used to analyze various transportation strategies (especially ITS related). However, microscopic traffic simulators need to be calibrated in order to yield meaningful ... -
