A Microscopic Simulation Model for Earthmoving Operations
Earthmoving operations are a major part of many construction projects. Because of the complexity and fast-changing environment of such operations, the planning and estimating are crucial on both planning and operational levels. This paper presents the framework ofa microscopic discrete-event simulation system for modeling earthmoving operations and conducting productivity estimations on an oper...
متن کاملOPTIMIZING EARTHMOVING OPERATIONS USING OBJECT - ORIENTED SIMULATION Mohamed
This paper presents an automated system for optimizing earthmoving operations. The proposed system can assist earthmoving contractors, during bid preparation stage, in estimating the time and cost required in order to accomplish the task at hand. It also provides a methodology for recommending the most suitable equipment fleet that satisfies the job requirements and the stated objectives of con...
متن کاملAgent Based Modeling and Simulation
The term computer simulation is related to the usage of a computational model in order to improve the understanding of a system's behavior and/or to evaluate strategies for its operation, in explanatory or predictive schemes. There are cases in which practical or ethical reasons make it impossible to realize direct observations: in these cases, the possibility of realizing 'in-machina' experime...

peared? Was this caused by climate changes? What type of recruitment strategy among social insects is best adapted to their particular environment? How much time does it take to evacuate an airport if people have limited perception caused by smoke as well as restricted mobility? What if many of these people travel in groups or families? How long does it take for commuters to reach their destina...
متن کاملA Simplified Online Solution for Simulation-based Optimization of Earthmoving Operations
Daily field management of earthmoving operations requires quick and regular decisions for allocating available equipment to different jobs on a project. A general foreman’s day starts with matching several activities with a suitable set of available equipment to achieve the highest productivity and lowest unit cost. Usually, this decision-making process needs to be quick, and depends to a great...
