Scheduling Resource-Constrained Projects with Ant Colony Optimization Artificial Agents
(2010)
The paper presents a methodology to schedule resource-constrained construction projects by use of algorithms based on ant colony optimization (ACO)
Simulation of the earthquake-induced pounding of seismically isolated buildings
(2008)
Seismic isolation can significantly reduce the induced seismic loads to a relatively stiff building by inserting flexibility at its base to avoid resonance with the predominant frequencies of common earthquakes. Sometimes ...
Construction imitating ants: Resource-unconstrained scheduling with artificial ants
(2009-05)
The paper presents a methodology to arrive at critical path calculations in construction networks by imitating the natural selection processes utilized by real-life ants in search of shortest paths to a food source, and ...
