DEVELOPED WEB-BASED TOOLS AND SOFTWARE

In the course of graduate studies, several web-based tools and software were developed. A brief summary of each tool/software is shown below:

[1] IUPAUT: Integrated Users Perspective Assessment and Upgrade Tool is a software to assess and upgrade the building based on sustainability assessment from user’s perspectives. It achieves the following functions: 1) assess the current sustainability of buildings based on user’s perspective; 2) provide


35

statistical charts related to the determined building sustainability; and 3) provide an illustrative set of alternatives, including a detailed description of their decision variables to upgrade the building sustainability. Inputs include project data required for the assessment and upgrade alternatives for each decision variable. It is an Excel-based tool.

[2] SIST: Sewer Inspection Scheduling Tool is a standalone software to assess the risk of sewer network failure and optimize the scheduling activities for CCTV inspection. The developed models are integrated to provide the user with a schedule for pipelines that require inspection in a chronological order. These models would be converted into an add-on for ArcGIS to enable users to select the required pipelines and identify the condition rating of that pipeline in terms of probability and the expected inspection date. The user imports the different pipelines with the relevant data, such as pipe diameter, length, material, depth,etc, and different defects present in these pipelines as an input. This add-on tool enables the user to check the different defects with the level of severity and provides the user with the probability of the different condition ratings. In addition, the SIST could be connected to MS excel (Microsoft Corporation, 2003) and MSBNx to determine the deterioration rates for pipelines based on their characteristics. A graphical user interface was developed using VBA where the user investigates the results and changes the inputs.

[3] ISART: Integrated Sustainability Assessment and Rehabilitation Tool is a software that assesses sustainability of buildings and sustainability-based rehabilitation of existing buildings. The main aim of this tool is to allow the decision-maker to: 1) assess the current sustainability of their building; 2) provide statistical charts related to the determined sustainability of the building; and 3) provide an illustrative set of alternatives, including a detailed description of their decision variables to upgrade the sustainability of their buildings with minimal LCC. ISART is a standalone tool that is programmed utilizing visual basic.net. The tool integrates Excel and Matlab software used in data entry, sustainability assessment and optimization processing.

[4] RCAT: Railway Condition Assessment Tool is an Excel-based software that assesses the condition of railway infrastructure using top-notch technologies. It consists of six spreadsheets based on the six-railway speed levels. Each spreadsheet consists of the railway components, their defect categories and defects to assess the condition of railway infrastructure. If and then formulas are used to determine the severity levels of each defect, based on the entered values compared to the values defined in the software database. When the defect severities are defined, the aggregation procedure between the severities and the corresponding weights is also interpreted in the spreadsheets through the aggregation process of the developed models. The calculated condition is represented in three-level categories: defect, component and overall condition. The input in this model is the defect severities through predefined criteria. The output is three-level conditions. An adopted condition grading scale is also incorporated into this model along with color coding for each linguistic condition.

[5] IWPDSS: Integrated Water Pipeline Decision Support System is software developed to help the water network operators assess and predict the performance of water networks including pipelines, accessories, segments, and sub-networks. It assesses the condition of pipelines and accessories as well as the criticality of pipelines, segments, and sub-networks. It also draws the deterioration profile of pipelines and accessories. IWPDSS also assists in selecting the cost-effective rehabilitation scenario(s) for oil and gas pipelines. It is a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that is developed using the Matlab 2010rb environment. It is flexible software where the user can change the inputs of the model according to their preferences.

[6] IAMDSS: Integrated Asset Management Decision Support System is software developed to help the operators assess and predict the condition of oil and gas pipelines. It also draws the deterioration profile based on the inspection reports considering most pipelines’ defects. IAMDSS also assists in selecting the cost-effective rehabilitation scenario(s) for oil and gas pipelines. It is a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that is developed using the Matlab 2010rb environment. It is flexible software where the user can change the inputs of the model according to their preferences.

[7] SPCAT: Sewer Pipeline Condition Assessment Tool (SPCAT) consists of three defect families (structural, operational, installation / rehabilitation) to assess the condition of sewer pipeline components, namely pipelines, joints and manholes through which the overall condition of the pipeline can be reasoned. The SPCAT is a user friendly interface that aids the user in obtaining the


36

respective conditions through incorporating the defects obtained from Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) surveys. The SPCAT is developed using Visual Basic interface that allows users, practitioners, decision-makers, and managers to determine the pipeline’s structural, operational, and installation/rehabilitation condition through inputting the available defect severities. It also allows the practitioners to determine the pipeline’s overall condition (pipeline, joint, and manholes) and to save the pipes’ characteristics as well as their respective conditions in a database incorporated in the Excel Sheets.

[8] ASIA: Automated Sewer Inspection Analysis (ASIA) assessed four defects of sewer pipelines: deformation, settled deposits, infiltration, and surface damage. These defects are detected using technologies such as the laser profiler, sonar, and electro scan. Each defect had its own quantification algorithms and mathematical equation, which are coded using Matlab software. ASIA provides the user with the necessary information to export the data to the interface and to run the program.

The GPR profiles will be analyzed in which the outputs can be read by Surfer program to generate contour map of rebar reflection amplitude with constant interval between the contour lines. However, the amplitude data will be used to find threshold values using K-means technique and then to calculate Bridge Deck Corrosiveness Index (BDCI).

[13] ABSEMO: The main purpose of the Agent Based Simulation of Earth Moving Operations (ABSEMO) is to create a user-friendly tool that allows for planning earthmoving operations with flexibility in inputs to fit different case studies. It starts with an introductory welcome page, where general information about the owners and the application is presented. In addition, it presents the environment of the earthmoving model and highlights its elements. Information about the material type, quantity of soil to be excavated and quantity of excavated soil to be transported (or quantity of soil to be excavated by loaders) are entered by users. On the other hand, the quantity of soil to be excavated refers to the quantity of soil that is planned to be excavated. It allows the users to model earthmoving systems that have the following two scenarios: 1) a quantity of soil is already excavated and ready to be loaded in trucks; 2) the earthmoving operation does not include the utilization of bulldozers, and loaders (or excavators) are the equipment units responsible for excavating and loading soil in trucks. ABSEMO accepts and employs inputs of both cases. Users can also select up to three types of each equipment unit to participate in the earthmoving operation. However, the model can be easily upgraded to accommodate more types of equipment units if needed. A color legend is added for users to identify the state of each equipment unit during model run. Users can choose to stop the model when the whole quantity of soil is excavated, loaded and dumped, when the dumped or excavated soil reaches a specific quantity, or at a specific time instance specified by hours, minutes and seconds of simulation time. It works in 2-D and 3-D environments/views where users can alternate between the 2-D, 3-D, and the metrics views. Users also have the ability to run the model at a fast speed, pause and resume simulation, or stop and terminate the simulation.
