  4. Assessment of bridges' expansion joints in Egypt by Badawy, Abdelhay Mohamed

    Published 2017
    “…Moreover, an expansion joint management system (EJMS) is developed with the aim of recommending the optimum maintenance strategy for bridges that optimizes annual condition index (ACI) and cost. This model uses a combination of Fuzzy Logic (FL) and Genetic Algorithm (GA) in order to provide optimal recommendations. …”

  15. Mobility Management in 5G Heterogeneous Networks: A Handover Scheme for Reducing Handover Failures by Monaheng, Reitumetse

    Published 2024
    “…This dissertation focuses on reducing handover failures due to the unavailability of resources at the target cell when a user equipment moves out of small cells, which have the highest rate of handover failure. By utilising a semi-Markov mobility prediction algorithm for handover management, we have implemented a handover scheme that reduces the number of handover calls dropping. …”

  17. Interference Management of Inband Underlay Device-toDevice Communication in 5G Cellular Networks by Boamah, Sharon Ampomaa

    Published 2021
    “…The channel allocation problem is solved as an assignment problem by using a proposed heuristic channel allocation, random channel allocation, Kuhn-Munkres (KM) and Gale-Shapley (GS) algorithms. A comparative performance evaluation for the algorithms are carried out in the two system model scenarios, and the results indicated that D2D communication with relay assistance outperformed the conventional D2D communication without relay assistance. …”
