Abstract:
The importance of remanufacturing has been recognized in research and practice. The integrated system, combining the forward and reverse activities of supply chains, is called closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) system. By coordination in the CLSC system, players will get economic improvement. This paper studies different coordination performances of two types of contracts, two-part tariff (TTC) and reverse revenue sharing contract (RRSC), in a closed-loop system. Through mathematical analysis based on Stackelberg Game Theory, we find that it is easy for manufacturer to improve more profits and re

Life insurance policy is a contract between the policy holder (assured) and the insurer (insurance company), where the insurer promises to pay a designated beneficiary a sum of money (a “premium”) upon the death of the insured person. In return, the policy holder agrees to pay a stipulated amount (at regular intervals or in lump sums). In nutshell, life policies are legal contracts and the terms of the contract describe the limitations of the insured events. Specific exclusions are often written into the contract to limit the liability of the insurer; common examples are claims relating to sui

The doctrine, at core, concerns conditional transfers: when a transfer is made conditionally, and the condition fails, the transfer can be recovered.

Abstract:
Abstract Adhesion is a very important consideration in adhesives and coatings. Many of the methods commonly used to measure coating failure deal with the degree to which loss of adhesion occurs. A force is applied on a bonded film at a predetermined rate and the degree to which it fails is then quantified in some manner. In this scenario, two inches of peel is worse than one inch of peel. The more material that can be removed by the applied force, the better predictor of future coatings failure the method produces.

Abstract Since stress corrosion cracking is a multi-variable problem there are a number of approaches to its prevention or control. Some of these approaches may depend upon data derived from laboratory tests and some aspects of these are considered initially, since the parameters mostly used for assessing susceptibility, threshold stress and crack velocity, are markedly dependent upon the conditions under which they are determined. Thus laboratory tests should be conducted under environmental and stressing conditions that are realistic in relation to the service conditions envisaged. Preventio

Abstract:
Abstract Oil and Gas EPC contractors in the Middle East are gradually transitioning into the Wind farm development projects in Far East Asia and Europe. NPCC, one of the leading contractors in the EPC of fixed oil and gas platforms in Middle East is executing the installation of Wind turbine generator (WTG) monopile foundations in an offshore field of Northeast Asia. Monopiles are simple type of structural foundation used to support the wind turbines in offshore fields and are designed to withstand the operational and environmental loads on the latter. A simple and common form of WTG foundatio

Abstract:
Power companies such as Southern California Edison (SCE) uses Demand Response (DR) contracts to incentivize consumers to reduce their power consumption during periods when demand forecast exceeds supply. Current mechanisms in use offer contracts to consumers independent of one another, do not take into consideration consumers' heterogeneity in consumption profile or reliability, and fail to achieve high participation. We introduce DR-VCG, a new DR mechanism that offers a flexible set of contracts (which may include the standard SCE contracts) and uses VCG pricing. We prove that DR-VCG elicits

Abstract:
Public-private partnerships (PPPs) have been used to address the need for the implementation of huge investment programs and to bridge the infrastructure gap that exists in Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) countries. As is explained throughout this paper, under certain circumstances, PPPs represent an important tool to help governments implement their investment programs, thereby benefiting not only from private investment (which often includes foreign investment) but also from the various advantages that are typically associated with the PPP model. However, the need to secure financing for

Abstract:
Political economy analysis (PEA) has emerged as a valuable approach for assessing context and the local systems where international development actors seek to intervene. PEA approaches and tools have grown and adapted over the last 40 years through innovations by donor agencies and practitioners. Our analysis of nine PEAs reveals the following findings: PEAs can make positive contributions to technical interventions; engaging project staff in PEAs increases the likelihood that they will be open to a thinking and working politically mindset and approach; inclusion of gender equity and social in

Abstract:
Managing value chain environmental impacts and natural resource use has become an important consideration in the purchasing decisions of large publicly traded companies. Suppliers, including micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in the Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) region,can increase their competiveness by using best practices in natural resource management and reducing their environmental impacts. In order to assess how value chain environmental management can improve MSME competitiveness, this study identifies best practices among companies in key economic sectors in LAC with th

Abstract:
The aim of the study is to gather information on three topics: (1) the evaluation and rating of steel bridge protective coatings, (2) coating systems used by various states throughout the United States, and (3) maintenance painting procedures employed by various state department of transportation agencies (DOTs). First, it was found that most state DOTs use either an Element Level type rating of the coating system or a 9–0 NBI type rating; many state DOTs use both methodologies, with one used for state bridges and the other for local bridges. Second, for coating systems, it was found that ther

Abstract:
Research on seeps and springs in the eastern United States is limited and few protocols for documenting and inventorying these valuable eastern ecosystems have been established. In the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area (CRNRA), seeps and springs may host species of concern and represent hotspots of biodiversity within an already biodiverse park. This project’s goal was to survey the entire park to identify seeps and springs, collect location data, document the hydrogeology and ecology of these systems, and determine sites for future study.

Because of the proprietary nature of the above codes, they are not available to mine operators in Canada.
