2019 journal article

Indoor Exposure to Ambient Particles and Its Estimation Using Fixed Site Monitors

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, 53(2), 808–819.

MeSH headings : Air Pollutants; Air Pollution, Indoor; Environmental Exposure; Environmental Monitoring; Hong Kong; Particle Size; Particulate Matter; Seasons
TL;DR: The methodology demonstrated to assess concordance between FSMs and exposure measurement sites can be applied more broadly to help reduce exposure error, which may help to interpret seasonal variations in health estimates. (via Semantic Scholar)

Social network analysis for construction crews

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT, 19(2), 113–127.

By: S. Abbsaian-Hosseini n, M. Liu n & S. Hsiang*

author keywords: Social network analysis; construction crews; centrality; variations; interdependency; work plan; construction management; productivity
TL;DR: This research proposes an analytical approach by combining SNA and work plan variation analysis to quantify the influence construction crews receive from jobsite social network, and explores the impact of jobsites social network on the crews’ performance particularly on their work plan variations through a case study.

A spatial multiple treatment/multiple outcome difference-in-differences model with an application to urban rail infrastructure and gentrification

TRANSPORTATION RESEARCH PART A-POLICY AND PRACTICE, 121, 325–345.

By: E. Bardaka n, M. Delgado* & R. Florax*

Contributors: E. Bardaka n, M. Delgado* & R. Florax*

author keywords: Spatial difference-in-differences; Quasi-experiment; Sequential treatments; Spatial spillover effects; Seemingly unrelated regressions; Urban rail; Gentrification
TL;DR: These models facilitate estimation of direct, indirect, and total average causal effects, as well as individual and cumulative effects of transportation interventions that partially overlap in space that can assist policymakers in assessing potentially reinforcing effects originating from multiple transportation interventions located in close proximity.

Genetic Algorithm–Genetic Programming Approach to Identify Hierarchical Models for Ultraviolet Disinfection Reactors

Journal of Environmental Engineering, 145(2), 04018139.

By: J. Monroe n, J. Ducoste n & E. Berglund n

Contributors: J. Monroe n, J. Ducoste n & E. Berglund n

author keywords: System identification; Symbolic regression; Evolutionary computation; Bloat; Drinking water treatment
TL;DR: The performance of ultraviolet (UV) disinfection reactors using experimental data poses major challenges to the water treatment industry, and a regression model has been developed in this work to solve these challenges. (via Semantic Scholar)

Are Visual Search Patterns Predictive of Hazard Recognition Performance? Empirical Investigation Using Eye-Tracking Technology

Journal of Construction Engineering and Management, 145(1), 04018115.

author keywords: Construction safety; Hazard recognition; Hazard identification; Eye-tracking; Visual search; Safety training; Personalized training; Occupational safety; Human factors
TL;DR: Poor hazard recognition is a widespread issue in the construction industry and when construction hazards remain unrecognized, workers are more likely to indulge in unsafe behavior, experience unsafe experience, and so on. (via Semantic Scholar)
