Dynamic site layout planning through minimization of total potential energy
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an innovative dynamic model that is able to generate layouts that are optimized over the duration of the project by applying energy principles governing a physical system to search for the optimum location of objects.

The constructs of site layout modeling: an overview
TL;DR: In this paper, the efficient planning of site space through the course of a construction project is referred to as site layout planning, and the impact on safety, productivity and security on construction site is discussed.

The time dimension in site layout planning
TL;DR: This paper demonstrates that there are in fact fundamental differences in the assumptions and the final outcome of models that are currently all categorized under dynamic site layout planning models, and proposes that these should in fact be divided into two groups of phased and dynamic models.

A Comparative Study of Different Approaches for Finding the Shortest Path on Construction Sites
TL;DR: The objective of this paper is to compare the complexity and precision of direct, grid based, and visibility graph approaches in determining the distance travelled by resources through a number of case examples.
