Abstract of PraxisAn Integrated Prognostics Condition-Based Maintenance Approach to Reduce Premature Failure of Wind Turbines’ Gearbox Components
This research proposed an integrated prognostics condition-based maintenance (CBM) strategy to reduce the premature sudden failure of three-bladed...
A Software Engineering Manager (EM) has to cater to the demand for higher reliability and resilience in Production while simultaneously addressing the evolution of software architecture from monolithic applications to multi-cloud distributed microservices. Pre-release functional testing is no...
Government agencies are having difficulty identifying qualified engineering job candidates from internal and external sources. Many organizations have complex engineering competency models that describe their desired knowledge, skills, and abilities required to succeed as an engineer. The aim of...
Predicting building energy consumption is essential at the design stage as it assists in estimating the costs of building operation. Today, most of the current building energy predictions are conducted on a building energy simulation software. Such simulation software is commonly preprogrammed to...

Implementing the Lean Approach to Reduce Long Waiting Times in Philippine Hospitals
The Philippines, a developing nation in the Far East, is one of the 195 countries in the world that has serious problems within the health care system. Although experts and practitioners...
Inaccurate forecasts of operating expenditures during the planning phase for new Light Rail Transit (LRT) projects in the United States underestimated future costs by up to 45% (Pickrell, 1989). When operating expenditures exceeded projected levels, local transit agencies often reduced public...
Systems engineering projects in the Navy require the use of a singular engineeringmethod that lacks tailorability, and while this method works for large scale projects, it has
also caused small-scale projects (those with less than 1000 function points) implementing
MBSE to fall behind schedule in...
Unidentified risks in the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) project life cycle can negatively impact project performance, contributing to 27.6% cost growth and average of 13 months delay. The process of comprehensively identifying possible risk events that can affect a project...
This research presents the application of various single machine learning algorithms (generalized linear models, random forest, decision tree, gradient boosted trees, support vector machine, deep Learning) and ensemble (bagging) to predict the cost and schedule of a software project. The software...
This research analyzes the factors within a Department of Defense organization's network-related outage resolution workflow that prolong resolution times. More specifically, how the current inefficiencies within the resolution process effect outage resolution and the management of enterprise...
