Evaluating Delay Impacts: From Root Cause Analysis to Dispute Resolution
Abstract: Construction projects inherently involve complex coordination among multiple stakeholders, interdependent tasks, and unpredictable external challenges, which frequently cause schedule overruns and disputes. Traditional contractual mechanisms—such as extensions of time (EoT), liquidated damages, and force majeure clauses—serve to define responsibilities, allocate risk, and establish formal dispute pathways when delays arise. For example, EoT provisions protect contractors from penalties when delays are beyond their control, provided proper notice and evidence are submitted …

Coupled Magneto–Thermal–Diffusion Transport in an Unsteady Maxwell Polymer Fluid with Activation Energy over a Porous Stretching Surface
Abstract: The present study investigates the combined effects of activation energy and diffusion-thermo (Dufour) processes on unsteady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow, heat, and mass transfer of a Maxwell viscoelastic fluid past a porous exponentially stretching vertical sheet. The electrically conducting and incompressible polymeric fluid flows through a saturated porous medium under a transverse magnetic field. The governing momentum, energy, and concentration equations are transformed into nonlinear ordinary differential equations using similarity transformations …

Thermo-hydraulic Performance of Annular-Finned Double-Pipe Heat Exchanger: Numerical and Experimental Investigation of Metallic and Polymer Composite Tube Wall Materials
Abstract: Double-pipe heat exchangers are central to the process industries — dependable, easily maintained, and straightforward to fabricate. Their conventional form relies on metallic tube materials, most often copper or stainless steel. Both metals conduct heat well, but they are dense, prone to corrosion in aggressive service environments, and increasingly at odds with the light-weighting goals that drive modern system design. Fibre-reinforced polymer composites, epoxy-based materials, and thermally enhanced thermoplastics such …
