Developing a new model for simultaneous scheduling of two grand projects based on game theory and solving

Loghman PIRI, Vahidreza GHEZAVATI, Ashkan HAFEZALKOTOB

Frontiers of Engineering Management 2022, Volume 9, Issue 1,   Pages 117-134 doi: 10.1007/s42524-020-0115-3

Abstract: Grand infrastructure projects, such as dam, power plant, petroleum, and gas industry projects, have severalcontractors working on them in several independent sub-projects.The concern of reducing the duration of these projects is one of the important issues among various aspectsThe projects’ duration in our model is reduced by 22.2%.Moreover, we observed in both projects the decreases of 19.5%, 20.9%, and 19.7% in the total stagnation

Optimal risk allocation in alliance infrastructure projects: A social preference perspective

Xiang DING, Qian LI

Frontiers of Engineering Management 2022, Volume 9, Issue 2,   Pages 326-336 doi: 10.1007/s42524-020-0145-x

Abstract: The mechanism of risk allocation is designed to protect all stakeholders, and it is vital to project success. Qualitative and quantitative ways of optimizing risk allocation have been well documented in extant literature (e.g., allocation principles, models, and solutions), and the foci of existing research are usually the maximization of rational utility. Few research has focused on partners’ social preferences affecting the output of risk allocation. This study presents a quantitative approach based on modeling alliance member (AM)’s inequity aversion (IA) to analyze risk-sharing arrangements in an alliance project. Fehr and Schmidt’s inequity-aversion model is integrated into modeling partner’s utility. This paper derives results for an alliance leader (AL)’s optimal risk-sharing ratio and AM’s optimal risk-management effort simultaneously. The derivation is based on solving a restrained optimization problem using the conception and methods from Stackelberg game theory. Results show that an AM’s IA significantly affects risk allocation between AL and AM. Specifically, envious preference is positively related to AL’s optimal risk-sharing ratio, whereas guilty preference negatively affects AL’s optimal risk-sharing ratio. These findings will be of interest to academics and practitioners involved in designing alliance negotiations.

Major bridge projects——a multi-disciplinary approach

Klaus H. OSTENFELD, Erik Y. ANDERSEN

Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering 2011, Volume 5, Issue 4,   Pages 479-495 doi: 10.1007/s11709-011-0137-3

Abstract: Modern bridge building is much more than concrete, steel and money. The overall socioeconomic impact, influence on people migration, traffic, use of primary materials, safety of construction impact on the environment, energy, risk scenarios, health, and most relevant now: climate and CO emissions, are among the parameters which enter into the decision process at the overall holistic conceptual level, the more detailed level of selection of bridge sites, and selection of bridge types as well as construction methods and selection of materials and products. The paper illustrates these dilemmas and illustrates by specific examples how this complicated decision process can be managed and structured in order to arrive at an overall satisfactory solution for design, construction and maintenance throughout the lifetime (life cycle) to these sometimes contradictory parameters and requirements.

Planning projects with scarce resources: Yesterday, today and tomorrow’s research challenges

Mario VANHOUCKE

Frontiers of Engineering Management 2018, Volume 5, Issue 2,   Pages 133-149 doi: 10.15302/J-FEM-2018088

Abstract: This paper is an invited request to describe the main research challenges in the domain of resource-constrained project scheduling. The paper is split up in three parts. In today’s challenges, research endeavors that have received a significant, but still not enough, attention have been described. In tomorrow’s research challenges, some promising research avenues for future research have been given. Finally, in yesterday’s challenge, a research topic that started decades ago, is said to have still a huge potential in tomorrow’s research agenda. This paper does not intend to give a full literature overview, nor a summary of all possible research paths. Instead, it is inspired from the author’s experience in academic research and practical consultancy and it serves as a personal opinion on a non-exhaustive set of promising research avenues, rather than giving a full literature-based advice for future research directions.
