-
(2022)Meteorites that fall to Earth quickly become contaminated with terrestrial microorganisms. These meteorites are out of chemical equilibrium in the environments where they fall, and equilibration promotes formation of ...
-
(2022)Large-scale infrastructure projects tend to experience variances between estimated and final costs. Governments, in response, have been using statistical methods (including probabilistic approaches) such as reference class ...
-
(2022)We examined the possibility that, during short-term refrigerated storage, microbial communities continue to biodegrade individual lipid biomarkers in an intact core section of Early Eocene consolidated marlstone sediments ...
-
(2022)Hospital projects worldwide often experience misperformance, showing a tendency to exceed their estimated cost, miss their deadline, suffer quality problems, and yield benefit shortfalls. Considering this ubiquitous ...
-
(2022)Errors cannot be always prevented as they are a normal part of any work routine. Performing rework due to an error can significantly increase construction costs in transport mega-projects. Moreover, rework results in ...
-
(2022)This article provides a commentary on the following paper published in Reliability Engineering and System Safety: “Understanding Near-miss Count Data on Construction Sites using Greedy D-vine Copula Marginal Regression” ...
-
(2022)The research we present in this paper addresses the following question: What type of error culture does the rank-and-file workforce experience during construction, and does it help mitigate rework? We undertake an exploratory ...
-
(2022)Mining activities alter soil physicochemical and biological properties that are critical for plant establishment. Revitalisation of soil biological properties via microbial inoculations can potentially be adopted to improve ...
-
(2022)Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are routinely used as proxies for wildfire in geological sediments associated with large igneous province (LIP) driven CO2 increases and mass extinction events. One example is the ...
-
(2022)Within construction, we have become increasingly accustomed to relying on the benefits of digital technologies, such as Building Information Modelling, to improve the performance and productivity of projects. We have, ...
