Abstract:

Using geotextiles in secondary roads to stabilize weak subgrades has been a well accepted practice over the past thirty years. However, from an economical point of view, a complete life cycle cost analysis (LCCA), which includes not only costs to agencies but also costs to users, is urgently needed to assess the benefits of using geotextile in secondary road flexible pavement. In this study, a comprehensive life cycle cost analysis framework was developed and used to quantify the initial and the future cost of 25 representative design alternatives. A 50 year analysis cycle was used to comput

Abstract:

The United States Navy has a number of entities that work together to ensure aircraft in the Navy are supplied with the parts and materials required to maintain mission readiness. An analysis of the operating and support system costs will characterize cost variance across Organizational, Intermediate and Depot level maintenance. We will examine both labor and material cost for both reparable and consumable items, and categorize those costs by type of maintenance action. This analysis is intended to help in the development of a cost model which could aid in both budget planning and execution.

Abstract:

<p> Designers and builders focused on green innovations often struggle to know well the costs and benefits of their proposed projects. As such, some are reluctant to innovate beyond the well known, as even modest projects are costly in nearly all respects.

The wall assemblies are specific for houses built in hot arid climates using vernacular architecture and site-available eart

Abstract:

Since the enactment in 1975 of the Education of All Handicapped Children Act (P.L. 94-142), now renamed the Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA), the cost of special education services has grown substantially in both absolute and relative terms (Duenas 1993). As a result, the issues such as the actual cost of special education services and the relationship of special education financing to regular education funding have become increasingly important to local, state and federal policymakers. The need for cost analysis in special education has become more important as the competition with

Abstract:

During the last seven years, the total cost for Swedish public transport provision has increased by over 30 percent in real terms according to figures from the government agency Transport Analysis. A similar pattern is found if considering a longer time span. Part of the cost increase can be attributed to an increased supply, and part is due to price increases on input factors that are measured by an industry index produced by the public transport industry. The fact that about half of the costs in Swedish public transport are covered by public funds calls for responsibility in how these funds

Abstract:

De extra kostnader som följer av offshoringprocesser är ett ämne vars relevans att studera ökar. På grund av att processen innehåller dolda utgifter, därav benämningen dolda kostnader (hidden costs), blir det svårt att predicera den verkliga kostnaden vilket kan ses som en av anledningarna till den ökande reshoringtrenden. I detta projektarbete har dessa dolda kostnader (hidden costs) analyserats med syfte att tydliggöra kunskapen som finns om dem. Analysen har genomförts genom att initialt dela upp de dolda kostnaderna i tre olika nivåer: orsaker av de dolda kostnaderna, processer som berörs

The equipment manager must also be able to forecast internal rental rates for their machinery. Repair and maintenance expenditures can have significant impacts on these economic decisions and forecasts.

Particularly, answers to the following questions have remained unclear: how cost/benefit ratios affect people’s fairness decision-making during resource allocations, how cost/benefit ratios affect people’s emotions and cognition when they receive fair or unfair treatments, whether people are intuitively selfish or fair, and how cost/benefit ratios of sharing affect it.

The two most common options for post-mining land uses in the southern Appalachians are forestry or hayland/pasture.

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited.<br>S cost data in this thesis yielded results that differed from the 2002 IDA report, and showed a statistically significant relationship between platform age and maintenance costs. This analysis is intended to aid in future naval leadership decisions on how best to achieve the desired force structure of the fleet. Conclusions drawn from this thesis will contribute relevant cost prediction insight that could greatly impact future decisions between extending the life of active surface combatants versus developing and procuring new ships.

Abstract:

Cost benefit analysis is the conventional method of evaluating automobile transportation improvements. This study examined traditional automobile evaluation methods and applied the same techniques to bicycle transportation projects. Cost data from recent research is summarized and eleven costs (five internal and six external) were estimated. The cost estimates are used to calculate automobile and bicycle costs per mile of travel. A case study of a hypothetical corridor is used to demonstrate how the transportation costs can be applied to specific planning problems. The case study explores what
