Applying Multi-Objective Evaluation to Automated Assembly Planning in Early CAD Design Stage

Creator:: Huang, Weifeng
Abstract:: Successfully predicting an accurate estimated cost is important in the assembly planning process. When designing an assembly plan, an accurate estimation ensures that the proposed plan can be achieved within the predetermined budget. However, achieving an accurate prediction is a challenge since it requires professional judgment, which is dependent upon...

Flex-shape convolution and an interactive image segmentation system

Creator:: Zhou, Zheng
Abstract:: Semantic image segmentation is a relatively difficult task in computer vision. With the advent of deep learning, semantic image segmentation is increasingly of interest for researchers because of the excellent predictions from Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). However, CNNs have proven to struggle with obtaining global context of image due to...

Evaluating Worker Performance Using the Energy Concept

Creator:: Alotaibi, Abdulaziz M.
Abstract:: Over the decades, worker performance on construction projects has been a significant source of concern to be evaluated. Comprehensive studies have developed models for evaluating worker performance outside of the construction industry; however, minimal research has been conducted to evaluate worker performance in the construction industry. One of the reasons...

Estimating Air Pollutant Emissions for Nonroad Equipment using EPA MOVES – Case Study of a Building Project

Creator:: Boddi Reddy, Sai Akhila
Abstract:: Total emissions from the US contribute 15% to the global emissions. The construction industry is a major source of the exhaust emissions produced. Use of light-duty vehicles and heavy-duty trucks for various construction activities contributes 83% to the total greenhouse gases produced. Construction equipment comprises of on-road and non-road equipment,...

Bridge Inspection Using Bridge Information Modeling (BrIM) and Unmanned Aerial Systems (UASs)

Creator:: Xu, Yiye
Abstract:: Bridge inspection is a critical task needed to monitor bridge quality and serviceability. In the U.S., 40% of bridges are more than 50 years old while most bridges are typically designed for a lifespan of 50 years. 9.1% of the 614,387 bridges across the U.S are considered structurally deficient. These...

Influence of Bicyclist Presence on Driver Performance during Autonomous Vehilce Take-Over Requests

Creator:: Fleskes, Kayla
Abstract:: Autonomous vehicles (AVs) may have the potential to mitigate a significant proportion of serious crashes which are due to human error or poor decision making behind the wheel. However, there are still many concerns associated with SAE Level 3 AVs that require intervention by a human driver after a take-over...

Near-contact Grasping Strategies: Improve Robotic Grasping from Awkward Poses with Deliberate Finger Motion

Creator:: Ong, Yi Herng
Abstract:: As robots are becoming more relevant to our lives, they are still having hard time accomplishing simple tasks such as picking and lifting. Problems that include environmental constraints, pose uncertainties and hardware noises restrain robots for grasping an object successfully from a perceivable environment. Many have looked into finding best...
