construction and validation of translation metacognitive strategy questionnaire and its application to translation quality
like any other learning activity, translation is a problem solving activity which involves executing parallel cognitive processes. the ability to think about these higher processes, plan, organize, monitor and evaluate the most influential executive cognitive processes is what flavell (1975) called “metacognition” which encompasses raising awareness of mental processes as well as using effectiv...
Estimation of Concrete Paving Construction Productivity Using Discrete Event Simulation
The objective of this paper was to study and optimize the concrete paving operations taking place in the reconstruction project of Interstate 74 using simulation. To achieve this objective, field data were collected during construction, and were then used to determine adequate probabilistic density functions for the activities duration and to validate a developed simulation model. Upon validati...
متن کاملScheduling for High-rise Building Construction Using Simulation Techniques
High-rise buildings are commonly built in densely populated countries or urban areas. A balanced floor construction cycle is critical for construction of the frame structures. The objectives in scheduling the floor cycle are to ensure smooth flows of resources and to optimise the use of formwork and other materials. The floor area is usually divided into zones to allow the labour force and form...
متن کاملPlanning and Optimizing Bridge Deck Construction Using Computer Simulation
This paper presents a framework (named Bridge_Sim) that aids contractors in planning bridge deck construction using computer simulation. The proposed framework estimates the time and cost required for construction of bridges' decks. Seven construction methods are included in the proposed framework. These are: cast-in-place on falsework, steel bridge construction, cantilever carriage, pre-cast b...
متن کاملEvaluation of Lean Improvements in Residential Construction Using Computer Simulation
Changes to apartment designs initiated by clients are an inherent part of residential construction. Competition for customers where supply exceeds demand, and increasingly sophisticated consumers, have forced construction companies to accept the phenomenon. However, client changes delivered during construction adversely affect the stability and flow of work at the construction site. To cope wit...
