Using Recycled Concrete Aggregate in Non-Structural Concrete on NCDOT Projects in Eastern NC
(2016-04)
These items are part of a grant project between Dr. Wang, Department of Construction Management, East Carolina University, and The North Carolina Department of Transportation. The grant project will run from August 1, ...
Automated classification of massive scale image data
(East Carolina University, 2016-12-13)
The diffraction image is a useful method to facilitate the representation of tiny entities such as the cell. It provides an efficient way to analyze the 3D morphological features of biological cells. However, the ...
INTELLIGENT MODEL FOR IMAGE-BASED RECOMMENDATION SYSTEM
(East Carolina University, 2016-08-29)
Online shopping has developed in parallel with the Internet, and Recommendation Systems have played a pivotal role in its growth. The recommendations are usually provided in two ways: Content-based Filtering and Collaborative ...
Back-Projective Priming: Toward Efficient 3d Model-based Object Recognition via Preemptive Top-down Constraints
(East Carolina University, 2016-07-25)
This thesis introduces back-projective priming, a computer vision technique that synergistically fuses object recognition and pose estimation by augmenting 3D models with geometric constraints. It also enables the use of ...
Safe design of skyrise greenery in Singapore
(2012)
Singapore is transforming from a “garden city” to a “City-in-a-Garden”. Designing for safety is recognized by researchers and some governments as a best practice in facilitating eventual worker safety within the built ...
Can Steel Slag Be Used as an Aggregate in Concrete and How? A Technical Approach by and Testing and Theoretical Molding
(2016-05)
Steel slag is the molten byproduct from steelmaking operations that is subsequently air-cooled for use. It has been used in cement manufacture and as unbound granular materials in construction. While numerous studies have ...
INVESTIGATING THE STAR SCHEMA BENCHMARK AS A REPLACEMENT FOR THE TPC-H DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEM
(East Carolina University, 2016-12-13)
Decision Support System (DSS) are at the core of business intelligence systems. Implementation costs for enterprise level Database Management System (DBMS) and DSS average $10,461 for installation costs. This does not ...
A Framework for Testing Scientific Software: A Case Study of Testing Amsterdam Discrete Dipole Approximation Software
(East Carolina University, 2016-08-18)
Software testing with scientific software systems often suffers from test oracle problem, i.e., lack of test oracles. Amsterdam discrete dipole approximation code (ADDA) is a scientific software system that can be used to ...
Using Drones in Disaster Areas: Perspectives of Disaster Responders in North Carolina, Virginia and Maryland
(East Carolina University, 2018-12-10)
Drones are pilotless aircraft and are more formally known as either unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). Drones, as they were referred to in this study, have the capability of being remotely ...
Applying Mutable Object Snapshots to a High-level Object-Oriented Language
(East Carolina University, 2018-11-30)
Software Engineers are familiar with mutable and immutable object state. Mutable objects shared across modules may lead to unexpected results as changes to the object in one module are visible to other modules sharing the ...
