The application of artificial intelligence (AI) in civil engineering projects has gained significant attention recent years. AI techniques have the potential to revolutionize various aspects engineering, including design, construction, maintenance, and management infrastructure. This abstract provides an overview diverse applications projects, highlighting benefits, challenges, future prospects...

interested in understanding, modeling and forecasting hydrological fluxes at large spatial scales based on land surface and climatic indices. Other topics of research include water resources planning and management and environmental assessment in developing countries. the interface of environmental process engineering and energy. This includes topics such as the conversion of waste materials to...

An increasing amount of development aid is targeted to areas affected by civil conflict; some of it in the hope that aid will reduce conflict by weakening popular support for insurgent movements. But if insurgents know that development projects will weaken their position, they have an incentive to derail them, which may exacerbate conflict. To formalize this intuition, we develop a theoretical ...

Object-Oriented Technology (OOT) has been extensively utilized throughout the nonsafety rated software development community (e.g., Windows 98 and Internet software). Although the adoption of OOT has been limited in the airborne civil aviation community, OOT is being considered by an increasing number of manufacturers of airborne software. Application of RTCA DO-178B/EUROCAE ED-12B ("Software C...

In this paper we propose a communication and cooperation system for optimizing civil engineering work processes. The system exploits standard software components such as CAD-tools and augments them with internet and world wide web based tools. Different user needs in the civil engineering process are met by specific user profiles allowing for adapted and tailored user interface creation within ...

Successful and effective e-governance development is impossible without adequate civil servants’ qualification. E-Governance development in Commonwealth of Independent State (CIS) countries faces a lot of common hurdles, and the problem of insufficient civil servants’ skills in the field of egovernance is among the top of these issues. The article represents the results of several researches de...
