Journal Article

Towards fairly sharing risks in public-private partnership projects: Shapley value approach

Mostafa, Fatma; Elsayed, Ahmed M.; Eid, Mohamed S.; Elbeltagi, Emad; Elmasoudi, Islam

2022 Innovative Infrastructure Solutions

doi:10.1007/s41062-022-00920-x

Public-private partnership (P3) provides communities with the required infrastructure projects while adequately sharing projects’ risks by both parties. To the author’s knowledge, the existing literature lacks a model that accounts for the marginal contribution of both the public and private...

Design and fabrication of frustum confining vessel apparatus for model pile testing in saturated soils

Jassim, Ali; Ganjian, Navid; Eslami, Abolfazl

2022 Innovative Infrastructure Solutions

doi:10.1007/s41062-022-00877-x

Offshore and marine engineering has developed rapidly, mainly due to the growing demand from the oil and gas industry for research and construction in deep-sea areas. Consequently, the need for research on the behavior of piles in saturated and partial saturated soils has also arisen. Frustum...

Numerical assessment of the critical velocity of a ballasted railway track

Alzabeebee, Saif

2022 Innovative Infrastructure Solutions

doi:10.1007/s41062-022-00921-w

The critical velocity could be defined as the train velocity that induces the highest settlement in the ground. In addition, the utilization of high-velocity trains necessitated the need to consider the effect of the critical velocity on the response of the railway track. However, the critical...

An innovative negative stiffness-inerter hybrid control device toward seismic-resilient structures

Kiran, K. K.; Noroozinejad Farsangi, Ehsan; Gharehbaghi, Vahidreza

2022 Innovative Infrastructure Solutions

doi:10.1007/s41062-022-00904-x

To improve structure control efficiency, both inerter and negative stiffness elements can be employed. In this study, an innovative combination of negative stiffness and an inerter control mechanism is used to protect a structure under severe seismic loadings. To this end, the numerical analysis...

Assessment of cost overrun factors in construction projects in Nigeria using fuzzy logic

Obianyo, Jude Iloabuchi; Okey, Okey Enangha; Alaneme, George Uwadiegwu

2022 Innovative Infrastructure Solutions

doi:10.1007/s41062-022-00908-7

The evaluation of cost overrun factors were carried out in this research study using fuzzy logic soft computing tool to analyze survey reports from professionals and expert in the construction industry. Due to value engineering underestimating of the actual cost during cost budgeting, cost...

Signalized intersection delay analysis using transit signal priority (TSP) and dedicated short-range communication (DSRC) system for bus rapid transit (BRT)

Abolfathi, Sina; Saffarzadeh, Mahmood; Mirzahossein, Hamid; Hosseinian, Seyed Mohsen

2022 Innovative Infrastructure Solutions

doi:10.1007/s41062-022-00892-y

Transit signal priority (TSP) at signalized intersections is one of the important strategies to change the traffic signal schedule according to the priority of public transit. In this research, a TSP management strategy at signalized intersections using the dedicated short-range communication...

Laboratory study of energy dissipation on the gabion vertical drop

Daneshfaraz, Rasoul; Mortazavi, SeyyedAli; Majedi Asl, Mahdi; Bagherzadeh, Mohammad; Abraham, John

2022 Innovative Infrastructure Solutions

doi:10.1007/s41062-022-00925-6

The present study aimed to investigate the effect of gabion structures with different lengths and heights in the downstream vertical drop on the energy dissipation values, relative depth, and downstream Froude number. Experiments were performed, for a simple vertical drop and a Gabion with two...

Traffic signal timing optimization for isolated urban intersections considering environmental problems and non-motorized vehicles by using constrained optimization solutions

Tran, Quang Hoc; Do, Van Manh; Dinh, Tuan Hai

2022 Innovative Infrastructure Solutions

doi:10.1007/s41062-022-00895-9

In optimizing traffic signal timing schemes, various researchers provided their own suggested model to optimize timing plans at isolated urban intersections. Those model formulations were reputed and qualified for their case studies and could apply in different particular circumstances; however,...

Strengthening of RC beams with CFS angle sections: performance assessment of various anchoring solutions

Rashid, Mudasir; Bhat, Javed Ahmad; Waseem, Shakeel A.

2022 Innovative Infrastructure Solutions

doi:10.1007/s41062-022-00889-7

The performance of any strengthening measure using a different material is significantly governed by the adequacy of the anchoring solution adopted. This paper discusses an experimental study to investigate the behavior of flexurally deficient reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened...

Influence of waste foundry sand, metakaolin and waste glass fiber on stress strain and microstructure of construction waste aggregate concrete

Sharma, Rachit

2022 Innovative Infrastructure Solutions

doi:10.1007/s41062-022-00902-z

Concrete is a widely used construction material and requires large masses of cement and natural resources for its production. The manufacturing of cement and quarrying of aggregates are energy-intensive processes causing detrimental impacts on the environment. Thus, this laboratory study is an...
