A Fuzzy approach to handle uncertainty and vagueness in life cycle costing for air conditioning systems

Perera, RCR [Thesis-Abstract]

Air conditioning cost being the most cost effective element of building services in buildings because of its higher operating cost. In order to select a cost benefited one among the available types a life cycle cost analysis ...
A Hybrid approach to the representation and processing of design standards

Neilson, AI [Thesis-Full-text]

This thesis presents an environment for the modelling and processing of structural design standards. This environment is known as SADA, an acronym for Standards Automated Design Assistant. SADA addresses many of the drawbacks ...
A methamatical model study to forcast inflow to Senanayake Samudra

Dias, PPG [Thesis-Abstract]

The Objective of this Study is to develop a Mathematical Model to Forecast Inflows to Senanayake Samudra, given the rainfall in its catchment. This forecast can effectively be used in establishing the reservoir operating ...
A preliminary assessment of the Gal Oya water management project

Atukorala, NT [Thesis-Abstract]

The Galoya Irrigation Project is the first multipurpose Scheme started in Sri Lanka. The project was commissioned in the year 1956. After nearly over 20 yrs. of its existence the project was in a rather poor condition. The ...
A Study of customer satisfaction and application of QFD for quality improvement in residential apartments

Samarajeewa, KGA [Thesis-Abstract]

There has been a significant growth in the residential apartment market in Sri Lanka during the last decade. The main reasons behind this upsurge include the growth of population, changes in living patterns and the soaring ...
A study of the present and potential in Sri Lanka

Pattiaratchi, DS [Thesis-Abstract]

The Government had initiated a National Agricultural, Food and Nutrition Strategy to-assess Sri Lanka's agricultural and food situation and establish priorities for sectoral development. Since the plan involves the use of ...
A Systems approach to assess the vulnerability of buildings to bomb blast

Chandratilake, SRMSR [Thesis-Abstract]

A blast event lies within the social system and involves people. Hence vulnerability to blast loading can be considered a socio-technical or "soft" system, where our ability to model and hence predict bounds on behaviour ...
An analysis of a univariate and bivariate time series

De Silva, HN [Thesis-Abstract]

The first part of this report is an univariate Analysis of time series data of the Southern Oscillation Index. The analysis was done in both the time domain and the frequency domain. The nature of the phenomena is such ...
Analysis and development of high rate composting system using municipal solid waste in Sri Lanka

Manipura, WMJASB [Thesis-Full-text]

Municipal solid waste has become a major problem in every country in terms of public health and environmental damage. As a developing country, Sri Lanka too faces the same challenge not only by public health and environmental ...
Analysis and initial design of civil engineering structures using structural optimization

Lowhikan SS [Thesis-Full-text]

Structural optimization of solids aims to find the optimal designs of structures by minimizing a constrained objective function such as the material compliance within a given problem domain. This constrained optimization ...
Analysis of operation and maintenance of giant's tank scheme

Thuraisingham, M [Thesis-Abstract]

Giant's tank is located in Mannar district of the Northern Province in Sri Lanka. This tank has 10 sluices, 3 taking off from the inlet channel and the balance 7 from the tank. This scheme consists 162 minor tanks which ...
Analysis of safety on Moratuwa - Egoda Uyana road and identification of reasons and possible mitigatory measures

Fernando, WAJE [Thesis-Abstract]

Road accidents have been on the upward trend the world over including Sri Lanka. According to Traffic Police Statistics, about one hundred road accidents are reported daily in the island, of which, about five to ...
Analysis on the culture of professionals in the Sri Lankan construction industry

Kasthurirathna, KTACG [Thesis-Abstract]

Construction industry is very significant to the Sri Lankan national economy. Therefore success in the construction industry always makes the way to success of a country. The construction industry is reliant upon human ...
Application of CFRP composite for sustainable solution of corroded slab system due to low nominal cover case study on nerd slab system

Ganewattha CK [Thesis-Full-text]

Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) strengthening technique had been shown excellent performance in externally strengthening reinforced concrete (RC) elements due to their superior properties compared to the alternative ...
Application of mathematical modelling for assessment of nearshore wave climate

Ranasinghe, DPL [Thesis-Abstract]

In Sri Lanka, nearshore wave climate is influenced by the simultaneous occurrence of swell waves approaching from a more or less southerly direction and sea waves mainly influenced by monsoonal weather pattern. Some nearshore ...
Application of mathematical modelling for predicting coastline evolution

Fernando, MSL [Thesis-Abstract]

Increased river sand mining in the west of Sri Lanka has led to coastal erosion over the last few decades. Erosion has been particularly severe along the coast north of the Maha Oya. The CRMP project, which included ...
Application of the electrical analog technique to study a limestone aquifer

Karunasena, R [Thesis-Abstract]

This dissertation describes a hydrological study of the Vanathavillu Limestone aquifer using the Electrical Resister Analogue Techniques. Vanathavillu is situated about 18 km, north of Puttalam covering an area of about ...
Application of unsaturated shear strength properties in slope stability analysis

Rathnasiri, RM [Thesis-Abstract]

Unsaturated soil mechanics is becoming increasingly popular in the world of Geotechnical Engineering due to the additional shear strength that unsaturated soils possess compared to saturated soils and specific problems ...
Assessing Tsunami hazard and mitigation measures

Karunathilaka, AVAU [Thesis-Abstract]

The Indian Ocean Tsunami in 2004 caused widespread damage in the coastal regions of Sri Lanka. The extent of inundation and the associated damage varied significantly with the local near shore wave height, topography and ...
Assessment and suggestions for improvements to the treatment process for the Raddolugama water treatment plant

Rajkumar, SGJ [Thesis-Abstract]

Raddolugama Housing Scheme was constructed in 1982, closer to the Seeduwa town in the Gampaha district. The scheme is provided with pipe borne water supplyand sewer system. Raw water for pipe borne water supply is abstracted ...
