The research applies semi-structured interview approach with twelve project management practitioners. The findings of the study indicate that the state of quality management in construction projects in Malaysia needs to be strengthened and there are problems in relation to quality management implementation that require attention and further research. The paper provides an insight on the state of quality management in construction projects in Malaysia.展开更多

Chemical engineers as project managers are faced with decision environments and problems in chemical industry projects that are complex. Multiple-criteria decision making (MCDM) approaches are major parts of decision theory and analysis. This paper presents all of MCDM approaches for use in chemical engineering management decisions. In this work, case study is Research and Development (R&D) project selection in chemical industry. The ability to make sound decisions is very important to success of R&D projects. It is hoped that this work will provide a ready reference on MCDM and this will encourage the application of the MCDM in chemical engineering management.展开更多

A steam cracking project is selected and analyzed, from which typical SC characteristics in international engineering projects in the area of petrochemical industry are summarized. The MINLP model is therefore developed and applied to projects with detailed data. The optimization results are analyzed and compared by the MINLP model, indicating that they are appropriate to SC management practice in engineering projects, and are consistent with the optimal priceeffective strategy in procurement. As a result, the model could provide useful guidance to SC optimization of international engineering projects in petrochemical industry, and improve SC management by selecting more reliable and qualified partner enterprises in SC for the project.展开更多

With the rapid development of the domestic construction industry, the traditional engineering management model can not meet the needs of a large number of construction project information exchanges. Only realizing informationization of construction engineering management, can reduce the cost of construction projects, improve the efficiency of project management and construction progress. This paper analyzes the current situation of construction management informatization, and puts forward some suggestions to strengthen the construction management information construction.展开更多

The project focuses on theoretical investigation of the electronic structures and dynamic processes upon photo-and electric-excitation for molecules and aggregates. We aim to develop reliable methodology to predict the optoelectronic properties of molecular materials related to the electronic excitations and to apply in the experiments. We identify two essential scientific challenges: (i) nature of intramolecular and intermolecular electronic excited states; (ii) theoretical description of the dynamic processes of the coupled motion of electronic excitations and nucleus. We propose the following four subjects of research: (i) linear scaling time-dependent density-functional theory and its application to open shell system; (ii) computational method development of electronic excited state for molecular aggregates; (iii) theoretical investigation of the time evolution of the excited state dynamics; (iv) methods to predict the optoelectronic properties starting from electronic excited state investigation for organic materials and experimental verifications.展开更多
