Radial Basis Function Neural Networks for Rainfall-Runoff Modeling
Abstract: Rainfall-runoff process is purely nonlinear and varies spatially as well as temporally. Any hydrological model requires many parameters which represent different components of the process. Availability of all the parameters is difficult for any catchment and probabilistic generation of such type of data is impossible. Under such circumstances, artificial neural networks (ANNs) have proven to be a better tool to model the rainfall-runoff process with minimum available data. The present …

Time-Cost Trade-off and Constraint Resource Scheduling Considering Overtime for Activity Expedition
Abstract: Project cost, duration and resources are three important parameters of a construction project. There is always a trade-off between project time and cost. While a lot of techniques are available to optimize the project time and cost in normal conditions, less effort is done to optimize them in a resource constraint conditions. This paper is focusing on a nonlinear integer framework for time-cost trade-off (TCT) and constraint resource scheduling (RCS) …

Study of 5G Technology and its impacts - Review
Abstract: Digitization is an ongoing revolution in the manufacturing industry. 5G technology is expected to play an important role in providing connectivity. Digitized factories place high demands on technical availability and therefore also on maintenance performance. However, it is difficult to incentivize senior decision makers to invest in maintenance, as impacts are often delayed and difficult to verify upstream. To quantify long-term effects, discrete event simulation (DES) has been identified as …
