Abstract To accommodate environment‐induced time‐window constraints, environment‐sensitive activities are arranged within allowable time windows while maintaining technological precedence and other logical relationships on the project. This research advances classical time–cost trade‐off (TCT) analysis by incorporating time‐window constraints in ...

Overhead crane subjected to impulse loading
Overhead cranes are machines designed to lift and transport heavy equipment and materials. For this reason, their design is regulated by rigorous standards (for example, the series EN13000 in Europe). However, the standards do not take into account the effect of cyclic loading due to, for example, rapid successions of short commands to place heavy ...

Staged ecologies: Aesthetics, nature and infrastructure in the late‐modern metropolis
Short Abstract This paper examines the relationship between urban nature and landscape design within a £1.5 billion regeneration project that is currently unfolding in Thamesmead, a town in south‐east London. It develops the notion of ‘staged ecologies’ to examine how urban nature is being spatially and aesthetically arranged across the town's ...

Vertical seismic response of overhead crane [PDF]
Abstract Vertical seismic response behavior is an important issue for the seismic design of equipments. The equipment, which is comparatively soft and unrestrained vertically, may resonate and its response is significantly magnified under vertical seismic excitation. Overhead crane is an example of equipment that is unrestrained vertically.

We show that Arctic and red fox space use significantly affects goose nest habitat selection and nest success in a low‐Arctic tundra ecosystem. However, the impact of fox predation depended on the location and timing of incubation of the nest, demonstrating the importance of incorporating time into the ‘landscape of fear’ concept.

ABSTRACT The characteristics of soft robots make them better candidates for applications such as healthcare, due to their enhanced safety, adaptability, and more natural human‐robot interaction compared to traditional counterparts. Different actuating systems have been proposed for soft robotics. On the other hand, since this technology is fairly young,
