Analyzing Influencing Factors of Financing Decision for Urban Rail Transit Projects Using DEMATEL Approach

Financing behavior, based on the financing decision made by the owner of urban rail transit projects, will directly affect the capital cost of its operation and the construction schedule of the project. This paper intended to combine financing demand and financing options with the project construction schedule, quality and investment management, and based on DEMATEL methodology, to identify and...

Optimal allocation of protective resources in urban rail transit networks against intentional attacks

This paper advances the field of network interdiction analysis by introducing an application to the urban rail transit network, deploying protective resources against intentional attacks. The resource allocation problem for urban rail transit systems is considered as a game between two players, the attacker interdicting certain rail stations to generate greatest disruption impact and the system...

Risk Management Plan in Large Urban Projects

One of the risks distinguishes urban projects from other projects is to purchase of property obstacles. The matter is of more significance in large projects. Issues with regard to possessing property obstacles, lack of accurate layout drawings for underground facilities and following probable changes in designs make it vital to have specific studies on risk management of such projects. So thi...

Equitable Risk Allocation in Construction Projects: Fuzzy Bargaining Game Approach

An equitable risk allocation between contracting parties plays a vital role in enhancing the performance of the project. This research presents a new quantitative risk allocation approach by integrating fuzzy logic and bargaining game theory. Owing to the imprecise and uncertain nature of players’ payoffs at different risk allocation strategies, fuzzy logic is implemented to determine the value...
