(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1980)In this dissertation, an algorithm was developed to solve large scale discrete nonlinear knapsack problems (NKP) with multiple resource constraints. The algorithm is essentially a dynamic programming technique in a sense ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1983)A procedure is developed to estimate the remaining service life of flexible pavements based upon predicted ride and distress conditions. These conditions are forecast using equations that involve measurable values of ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1976)This study was designed to determine if there is a significant difference between the construction, operational and maintenance costs of underground school buildings and conventional school buildings over a five year period. ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1979)The purpose of this research was to identify those competencies needed by students entering Auto Mechanics programs which handicapped students either possess or could be expected to attain. To achieve this purpose, three ...

(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)The purpose of this study was to determine the extent and characteristics of contracting for park maintenance services in the State of Texas. The source of data was information collected by the Texas Agricultural Experiment ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1991)The current rate of deterioration of highway bridges in the United States has created the need for a comprehensive bridge management system (BMS). This need has also been recognized in Texas, necessitating the development ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1981)Bridge traffic in lanes adjacent to a deck that is being widened or replaced causes movements in the fresh concrete deck. A study of the effects of these movements in concrete decks is reported here. An experimental ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1993)Environmental Protection Agency Regulations have mandated certain actions to control asbestos fiber release episodes in public school systems in the United States. These mandates do not differentiate between asbestos types ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1983)In this research a model is developed to aid decision making in the allocation of limited funds in the improvement of a large-scale, rural road-bridge transportation system. After applying a geographic decomposition scheme ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1980)A multi-period highway maintenance scheduling program was formulated as a large scale 0-1 integer nonlinear program (INLP). A number of other real world multi-period investment problems can also be formulated in a similar ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)The objective of this research is to investigate various methods for computing reliability parameters for a multicomponent system and, based on these parameters, determine an appropriate maintenance policy; in short, to ...
