Abstract (sommario):

This study aimed to evaluate the agronomic characteristics and nutritional value of two clones of elephant grass (CNPGL 00-1-3 and BRS Kurumi) operating under rotational stocking in the dry season. A completely randomized design with repeated measures (grazing cycles) and three replicates (paddocks) was used. Clones were managed under rotational stocking with a defoliation interval of 24 days and four days of occupation of paddocks, using Holstein x Gyr heifers with mean body weight of 150 kg. The evaluations were conducted in April/May, May/June, June/July and July/August 2010. Green forage mass was influenced by clone and grazing cycle, with higher mean value observed for CNPGL 03-01-00, which was 17% higher than the value observed for BRS Kurumi, and there was decreased of dry mass of green forage with the advance of grazing cycles. Leaf mass was influenced only by grazing cycle, with gradual reduction from the first to the third cycle. However, in fourth cycle was increase in biomass of leaves, which did not differ from that observed in the second cycle. There was interaction for dry matter production of stem, being observed differences in the first and third cycles for the clones. There was no effect of the factors studied for the production of senescent material. The leaf:stem ratio was influenced by grazing cycles, with interaction of the factors studied. The clone BRS Kurumi kept the leaf:stem ratio stable over the cycles, while clone CNPGL 1-3-00 presented a decrease in leaf:stem ratio from first until to third cycle. The content of crude protein (PB) was not influenced by the factors studied, with average values of 15.3% and 15.8% PB for the CNPGL 00-1-3 and BRS Kurumi clones. Neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and the in vitro dry matter digestibility (IVDMD) were affected only by grazing cycles. The highest values of NDF were observed in the three first grazing cycles, with values of 55.5%, 56.0% and 55.7% from the first to the third grazing cycle, respectively, while in the fourth cycle was obtained the value of 50.5%. There was a decrease in the IVDMD until the third cycle. In the fourth cycle the IVDMD values were similar to the first cycle. The clones did not differ in relation to biomass production, morphological composition and nutritional value, during the dry season.

Abstract (sommario):

To understand the structural damage evolution process of loess under the action of dry-wet cycles, a triaxial test of a dry-wet cycle was performed by considering three influencing factors: initial moisture content, amplitude of the dry-wet cycle, and number of dry-wet cycles. The stress-strain curves of undisturbed loess samples at different cycling times vary under different compacted loess cycles. Under the same axial strain, the stress value of the undisturbed loess is higher than that of the loess sample after a dry-wet cycle, indicating that such cycle can reduce the strength of loess. As the number and amplitude of dry-wet cycles increase, the shear strength of the loess sample and the value of cohesion (c) of the strength index gradually decrease, and the amplitude gradually decreases. With an increase in the number and amplitude of dry-wet cycles, the change in the internal friction angle of the strength index is inevident, indicating that the effect of dry-wet cycles on the internal friction angle of loess is insignificant. Computed tomography (CT) scan experiments were also conducted to obtain the evolution of loess cracks before and after a dry-wet cycle. Studies have shown that as the number and amplitude of dry-wet cycles increase, the mean (ME) value of CT decreases, the standard deviation (SD) value increases, and the ME value is obtained during the initial stage of a dry-wet cycle. Meanwhile, the decreasing trend of ME and the increasing trend of SD values are most evident during the period of a dry-wet cycle. In conclusion, dry-wet cycles promote the development of cracks.

Abstract (sommario):

Real-time solution of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) epoch-differenced ionospheric delay (DID) is of great significance for real-time cycle slip detection and repair of multi-GNSS dual-frequency or trifrequency undifferenced measurements under high ionospheric activity. We construct a dynamic model of DID and perform a real-time estimate of the noise level of DID based on estimating the variance component. The estimated and predicted values of DID are obtained by designing a new adaptive Kalman filter algorithm with colored noise. Combining the predicted value and the detection method for cycle slips for Melbourne-Wübbena (MW) and Geometry-Free (GF) combination and taking into account the correlation between the predicted value and the carrier signal, we estimate the cycle slip, N2, on the second frequency of the carrier signal. The prediction and estimate of DID and detection and repair of dual-frequency cycle slip of multisystem undifferenced phase observations are measured with the GNSS multisystem observational data at different sampling rates (30 s, 15 s, 10 s, and 1 s). The results show that the DID model constructed in this paper is correct. The predicted value of DID has a high accuracy, which can effectively assist in dual-frequency cycle slip detection and repair. (1) The obtained predicted values, the estimated value, and the difference value between the two values of DID are less than 1.2 cm (STD), 1.2 cm (STD), and 0.6 cm (STD), respectively; (2) the precisions of the detection of cycle slip for MW, GF, and N2 are less than 0.083 cycles (STD), 0.4 cm (STD), and 0.071 cycles (STD), respectively; (3) with the obtained predicted value of DID to aid the detection and repair of cycle slip in GNSS double-frequency signals, a success rate of 100% can be reached.

Abstract (sommario):

The following thesis makes a critical attempt for approaching the concept of artistic value based on case-study of a unique in its kind contemporary artwork. A cultural production that peculiarly illustrates a paradoxical process of preconsecration as high art, within the both the aesthetic and art professional fields it is hosted within. The Cremaster Cycle of Matthew Barney, a notorious and at the same time, enigmatic production of contemporary art, illustrates a process of contemporaneous art historical indexing and to the creation of cultural capital. Such processes, facilitated by private and institutional patronage, are understood as integral to the art production from the 1990s and onwards, making the professional field of art equally important as the aesthetic one. Within this particular frame, we will see the faithful coming together of various agents, in support of an aesthetic idea or else, a cultural product, whose form seems intrinsically bound to both a social and an economical agenda, while at he same time it expresses a very particular aesthetic one. Due to such characteristics the research and analysis of the case study was carried out against the background of Pierre Bourdieu’s ‘field theory’, echoing therefore the aesthetic ‘field of the Cremaster Cycle’ . Using as disciplinary pillars from one side, the abstract and idiosyncratic realm of art theory and on the other the practical world and language of commerce, the thesis will attempt to look into the specific conditions that contributed to the Cremaster Cycle’s immediate valorization as high art. In this route the question of artistic value is one of great importance and yet, it is not one that could be sufficiently answered. Though, what becomes definite through this research project, brought forward in such times when the notions of both, artistic production and value are so expanded and malleable, is an intense urgency for new definitions. Somehow, it seems that the core problematic of this necessity for reconfiguration evolves around the notion of autonomy. This time not of the artwork but of the ones that attribute its value, namely the field; And this is exactly what the Cremaster Cycle offers us in perspective. Is there the possibility of objective or autonomous artistic value within a knowingly non-autonomous art?

Abstract (sommario):

In the past decades, while many countries planned and undertook more and bigger infrastructure megaprojects, poor performance has marred their delivery, for example through cost overruns, delays, disputes, and shortfalls in expected benefits. It is therefore important to improve performance levels, especially in infrastructure megaprojects that can considerablely influence the economy, society and environment. Project evaluation is an effective tool in project performance management as it provides stakeholders with a management process through which they can learn from the past and perform better in the future. Most of the traditional evaluation approaches emphasize the three basic success criteria of time, budget and quality. However, with the increasing importance of sustainability criteria and concerns, as well as the growing imperatives for stakeholder engagement, it has already been suggested to reconsider and redefine value by also evaluating other factors, such as those related to the environment and society. Therefore, an integrated whole life cycle value (WLCV) evaluation framework is proposed in order to improve infrastructure megaproject WLCV performance. In this study, whole life cycle (WLC) evaluation has a two-fold meaning: (i) the evaluation is based on a set of value factors drawn from a WLCV system; and (ii) this evaluation is a systematic continuous process from the start to the end of the project. However, considering the unique characteristics of every project, a totally fixed or static structure and content framework is neither sufficient nor suitable for the various types of infrastructure megaprojects. The recommended solution is to develop a semi-flexible framework that enables a pre-determined step by step dynamic structure formulation and a flexible WLCV system. In order to measure project WLCV derived from stakeholders’ expectations, from more objective and persuasive perspectives, the relevant value objectives/criteria/indicators, their weightings and targets will be identified, integrated and developed through this WLCV system. Cross-criteria relationships which have not been addressed adequately before, will be dealt with by assigning appropriate weightings. It is also proposed to build a database to store completed project information including various stakeholders’ expectations expressed in the form of value objectives. In order to develop the above proposed framework, a basic literature review was conducted to reveal and analyze the significant evaluation problems, identify trends in stakeholder engagement and develop the concept as well as typical criteria and indicators of project WLCV. Meanwhile evaluation practices, stakeholder engagement in the process of evaluation and WLCV perspectives in the Hong Kong construction industry were examined through a first round of interviews and the first of two focus group meetings. The first focus group meeting, second round interviews and the second focus group meeting were conducted to improve the proposed framework by investigating the importance of assigning an appropriate weighting to each value objective and each group of stakeholders; elaborating the various value criteria to measure value objectives at appropriate points of a project WLC. The findings from literature reviews, interviews, focus group meetings and a case study were integrated and injected into developing the aforementioned framework for building and administering the evaluation of project WLCV in ways that could improve desired project WLC performance. The outputs of the current research are expected to assist clients of infrastructure megaprojects to build a sense of ownership among all the key stakeholders at the outset, and to help motivate all stakeholders to be more co-operative, with a view to jointly targeting and monitoring an agreed project WLCV, thereby helping to achieve better WLC performance on infrastructure megaprojects. The main contributions to knowledge from this research are in developing a comprehensive evaluation methodology which combines and refines relevant components from existing evaluation approaches as well as injects the WLCV concept and criteria into a more holistic approach that is expected to identify and address current inadequacies in infrastructure megaproject delivery. published_or_final_version Civil Engineering Master Master of Philosophy

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis examines the concepts of value creation, capture and exchange in limiting the liability of newness for nonprofit museums entering the sector. There has been considerable examination of cultural value in relation to museums. However, little is known about how value is created, captured and exchanged for stakeholders in new museums. It is posited that value creation, capture and exchange constitute a value cycle. Through this value cycle management in new museums detects and limits the liability of newness. The ability to detect and limit the liability of newness enables the continuation of the museum. If the liability of newness is not limited, it may mean that a new museum exits the sector or is transformed. The concept of a value cycle is derived from an examination of the nonprofit management literature, aspects of the for-profit management literature and the arts and museum management literature. Value creation is a key concept in the three literature areas. Value creation in this context, is specifically defined as the worth of the physical manifestation of the museum. It resides in the building and the collection, services and programs within the building. It is suggested that this value needs to be transformed and consumed by a range of stakeholders. The transformation of value creation is denoted as value capture. Value capture is the appeal of programs, projects and activities. Value capture includes how well the products and services align with particular stakeholders, how accountable the managers are to stakeholders and how products and services are consumed by stakeholders. The measure of how managers have been able to capture value is in the realm of value exchange. Value exchange is the merit of programs, projects and activities. Value exchange is in the form of revenue raised through sponsorship; continuation of revenue investment by the principal stakeholder, the state; time and money transacted by visitors; and intangible exchange such as leadership and reputation enhancement through collaborations. A Value Cycle Framework of New Entrant Museums is then developed as a working analytical tool to assess how the value cycle operates and how the liability of newness is detected and limited by museum management. x The Value Cycle Framework is used to assess four cases. These case studies include the National Museum of Australia as a purpose built new entrant; the Australian National Maritime Museum as a purpose built new entrant; the Mint as a recycled new entrant; and the Earth Exchange as a refurbished new entrant. Each case is assessed discretely using secondary and primary source material and analysing qualitative data generated from interviews with key stakeholders. The cases are then compared in order to track similarities and differences in relation to value creation, capture and exchange. The research findings suggest that a value cycle is operating in relation to new entrant museums. This value cycle is dynamic and non-sequential. Until value creation is floated for a range of stakeholders it is difficult for managers to know the worth of their content, location or their building. Value creation is a nominal starting point, signifying the arrival of a new entrant in the museum marketplace. However, value capture is the zone that is the most vulnerable and volatile for managers of new museums. Typically in these case studies value capture includes a disruptive episode, such as a review process that indicates the liability of newness. Managers within the museum who can respond and resolve contradictions between museological beliefs and the demands of stakeholders (and in so doing limit the liability of newness) are likely to continue museum operations. Senior executives who find such reconciliation more difficult, jeopardize the future operations of the museum to such an extent that the museums close or are transformed within the museum sector. Through these four case studies a revised Value Cycle Framework is developed as an analytical device. This analytical framework can assist in understanding the processes involved in new entry for museums.

Thesis (MBA)--University of Stellenbosch, 2010. AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Waarde- en groei-beleggingstrategieë dateer terug na Fama en French (1992) en Lakonishok, Shleifer en Vishny (1994). Bogenoemde studies is gebaseer op vroeë navorsing wat die fokus verskuif het om sodoende waardasieverhoudinge en maatskappygrootte te gebruik as toonaangewende verklarende maatstawwe vir aandele-opbrengste. Toenemende studies in hierdie beleggingsveld het die akademiese en beleggingsgemeenskap oortuig dat ’n waardegebaseerde beleggingstrategie, gemiddeld, ’n groeigebaseerde beleggingstrategie oortref. Waarde- en groei-eienskappe word algemeen aanvaar en deur fondsbestuurders en beleggers as onderskeidende beleggingstrategieë aangewend. Hierdie eiesoortige beleggingstrategieë is op die Suid-Afrikaanse mark vir die periode 1990 tot 2009 toegepas. Die beduidende veranderinge binne die ekonomiese klimaat en aandelemarkte was die oorhoofse rede vir die insluiting van die ekonomiese siklusse in die navorsing, spesifiek die opswaai- en afswaai-fases van die ekonomie. Die Sharpe-, Treynor- en Inligting–prestasiemaatstawwe vir waarde- en groei-portefeuljes is in hierdie studie vergelyk en geanaliseer. Normaalweg word prestasie-beoordeling nie begin met ’n gedetailleerde analise van die opbrengsverdelings om te bepaal watter prestasie-maatstaf meer voortreflik is nie. Die opbrengsdensiteit vir alle portefeuljes is bepaal om sodoende die opbrengsverspreidings en risikooorwegings beter te verstaan binne die onderskeie ekonomiese siklusse. Die bevindinge binne die Suid-Afrikaanse konteks was wel ooreenstemmend met voorafgaande navorsing dat waardegebaseerde investering groeigebaseerde investering oortref vir aandele met hoër waardasieverhoudinge teenoor aandele met laer waardasieverhoudinge. Die gemiddelde maandelikse prestasie van waarde-portefeuljes het ook groei-portefeuljes oortref in die ekonomiese opswaai-siklusse, wat ooreenstemmend is met soortgelyke navorsing wat in ander markte gedoen is. In die ekonomiese afswaai-siklus het groei-portefeuljes waarde-portefeuljes oortref, ooreenstemmend met die van die Amerikaanse mark. Die navorsing dui daarop dat waardegebaseerde investering voortreflik is oor die volle steekproefperiode, wat beteken dat beleggers wat waarde-beleggingstrategieë volg hoër opbrengste kan verwag in alle ekonomiese siklusse, maar die voordele sal groter wees in tye van ’n ekonomiese opswaai. Die wisselvalligheid van opbrengste binne die twee ekonomiese siklusse is sigbaar en beklemtoon die noodsaaklikheid om die ekonomiese siklus in beleggingstrategieë en -besluite in te sluit. Die ekonomiese siklus verbreed die dimensie tot die evaluasie van waardegebaseerde beleggingstrategie en dit is noodsaaklik dat dit ’n geïntegreerde deel vorm van die evaluasieproses. ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Value and growth investment strategies can be traced back to Fama and French (1992) and Lakonishok, Shleifer and Vishny (1994). The studies built on earlier work done and lead to attention being shifted to valuation ratios and company size as leading explanatory indicators for stock returns. Based on the accumulated evidence from studies, the academic and investment community came to agree that value investment strategies, on average, outperform growth investment strategies. Value and growth, are widely recognised and used by money managers and investors as distinctive investment strategies. These style-specific investment strategies were tested on the South African market for the period 1990 to 2009. The significant changes within the economic conditions and securities markets motivated the research to include the business cycle – specifically, contraction and expansion of the economy – within the scope of this study. The Sharpe, Treynor and Information performance ratios, that were calculated for compiled value and growth portfolios, were compared and analysed. The performance evaluation is not normally initiated with a detailed analysis of the return distribution in order to determine which performance measure is superior. The return densities for all portfolios were calculated in order to gain a better understanding of return distributions and risk considerations within the different business cycles. The results indicated that, within the South African context, value investing did outperform growth investing as indicated by previous research that stocks with high valuation ratios tend to outperform stocks with low valuation ratios. The mean monthly performance of value portfolios also outperformed growth portfolios in the period of economic upswing, which is a similar result as that of other markets where this kind of research has been conducted. In the economic downturn period growth investing seems to be superior to value investing similar to that of the US market. The study indicates that the superior performance of value investing is robust for the whole sample period, meaning that investors will be better off investing in stocks with high valuation ratios for all economic conditions, but the benefits of value investing would be greater during periods of economic upswing. The volatility of returns within the two economic conditions is quite evident and highlights the importance of incorporating business cycles into investment strategies and decisions. The business cycle adds another dimension to value investing strategy evaluation and should be incorporated in the evaluation process.

Abstract (sommario):

The demand for energy is increasing throughout the world, and fossil fuel resources are diminishing. At the same time, the use of fossil fuels is slowly being reduced because it pollutes the environment. Research into alternative energy sources becomes necessary and important. An alternative fuel should not only replace fossil fuels but also address the environmental challenges posed by the use of fossil fuels. Hydrogen is an environmentally friendly substance considering that its product of combustion is water. Hydrogen is perceived to be a major contender to replace fossil fuels. Although hydrogen is not an energy source, it is an energy storage medium and a carrier which can be converted into electrical energy by an electrochemical process such as in fuel cell technology. Current hydrogen production methods, such as steam reforming, derive hydrogen from fossil fuels. As such, these methods still have a negative impact on the environment. Hydrogen can also be produced using thermochemical cycles which avoid the use of fossil fuels. The production of hydrogen through thermochemical cycles is expected to compete with the existing hydrogen production technologies. The sulphur iodine (SI) thermochemical cycle has been identified as a high-efficiency approach to produce hydrogen using either nuclear or solar power. A sound foundation is required to enable future construction and operation of thermochemical cycles. The foundation should consist of laboratory to pilot scale evaluation of the process. The activities involved are experimental verification of reactions, process modelling, conceptual design and pilot plant runs. Based on experimental and pilot plant data presented from previous research, this study presents the simulation of the sulphur iodine thermochemical cycle as applied to the South African context. A conceptual design is presented for the sulphur iodine thermochemical cycle with the aid of a process simulator. The low heating value (LHV) energy efficiency is 18% and an energy efficiency of 24% was achieved. The estimated hydrogen production cost was evaluated at $18/kg. Thesis (M.Ing.

Abstract (sommario):

The primary objective of any corporation should be shareholder wealth maximisation. A firm's working capital policies have an effect on the firm's expected future returns and the risk associated with the returns, which ultimately have an impact on shareholder wealth. Efficient working capital management is a fundamental portion of the overall corporate strategy to create shareholder value. In this study the relationship of corporate profitability and working capital management was investigated. This relationship is examined using regression analysis. A sample of 118 firms listed on the Johannesburg Securities Exchange (JSE) for the period 2003 to 2007 was used. The purpose of this study is to establish whether a relationship exists between working capital management efficiency and profitability, considering the cash conversion cycle and operating profitability of the firm. The results of the regression analysis indicated that a statistical significance exists for three of the five years (2003 - 2005) analysed between profitability, measured with the gross operating profit, and the cash conversion cycle. It is observed (2003-2005 regression results) that a lower gross operating profit is associated with an increase in number of days accounts payable. The negative relationship between accounts receivable and firms' profitability (for 2003-2005) suggests that less profitable firms will pursue a decrease of accounts receivables in the attempt to reduce cash gap in the respective cash conversion cycles. The negative relationship between the number of days inventory and corporate profitability (for 2003-2005) suggests that a sudden decrease in sales accompanied by mismanagement of inventory, will lead to tying up excess capital at the expense of profitable operations. Managers or owners of firms can improve profits for firms by handling correctly the cash conversion cycle and keeping each individual component (accounts receivable, accounts payable and inventory) to an optimum level.

Abstract (sommario):

Résumé Une demande croissante sans cesse de produits alimentaires à base d’animaux influence la productivité des systèmes mondiaux de production alimentaire, et des mesures indispensables pour freiner la dégradation de l’environnement promettent des effets similaires. Si les scénarios de demande future peuvent être satisfaits de manière durable, cela dépend notamment de la possibilité de réduire de manière significative l'impact de l'aquaculture et de l'élevage sur l'environnement. Des recherches récentes suggèrent que l'utilisation d'aliments à base d'insectes (IBF) pourrait apporter une contribution significative à cet égard, et des arguments valables sont avancés pour soutenir cette hypothèse. Les larves de mouches, comme celles des mouches domestiques (Musca domestica) ou des mouches soldat noir (Hermetia illucens), sont en mesure de puiser des nutriments dans un large éventail de ressources organiques, y compris celles impropres à la consommation humaine. Cela crée la possibilité de convertir (et de réduire considérablement) les déchets organiques de faible valeur, tels que le fumier ou le sang animal, en protéines de haute qualité et en énergie alimentaire, qui se sont avérés appropriés pour nourrir différents poissons d'aquaculture et du bétail monogastrique.Bien que le concept IBF promet d’importants avantages et ait démontré sa faisabilité technique, il n’existe encore aucun système établi permettant de tester les avantages supposés en termes de durabilité. Dans cette thèse, nous avons essayé de surmonter cette lacune par la modélisation de tels systèmes. Notre objectif central était d'identifier les aspects influençant le potentiel d'application des IBF dans différents contextes géographiques et de définir des voies d'optimisation pour une mise en œuvre durable. En nous basant sur des données expérimentales recueillies lors d'essais d'élevage menés en Europe (Espagne et Slovaquie) et en Afrique de l'Ouest (Ghana et Mali), nous avons formulé la conception d'un ensemble de versions de systèmes améliorés élevant M. domestica et H. illucens sur différents substrats organiques de faible valeur. Les modèles de production génériques ont servi comme base d’une analyse du cycle de vie ex ante, dans laquelle nous avons exploré les performances des systèmes à l’aide d’analyse du cycle de vie environnementale (ACV) et de l’analyse des coûts du cycle de vie (ACCV).Les ACVs et ACCVs ont montré que les performances environnementales et économiques des IBF sont largement fonction de l’efficacité de conversion des systèmes, de l’organisation du processus de production (c’est-à-dire de l’apport de main-d’œuvre et d’équipements technologiques) et du contexte géographique. La combinaison de ces facteurs a fourni des avantages pour les configurations simplistes utilisées dans la production de M. domestica en Afrique occidentale tropicale dans des conditions de ponte naturelle (c'est-à-dire d'inoculation de substrat par le biais de mouches présentes à l'état naturel). L'inoculation artificielle (c'est-à-dire l'inoculation du substrat par le biais de larves nourries provenant d'une colonie d'adultes en captivité), utilisée dans la production de H. illucens en Afrique de l'Ouest et de M. domestica dans le sud de l'Espagne, a favorisé une efficacité de conversion élevée, mais a augmenté les impacts environnementaux et les coûts, parce que le système complexe et l'organisation de processus à forte intensité de main-d'œuvre ont considérablement accru les intrants de main-d'œuvre et d'infrastructures de production.Une comparaison avec des aliments conventionnels riches en protéines a mis en évidence des inconvénients environnementaux et économiques pour les modèles de production actuels des IBF, notamment en ce qui concerne les aliments végétaux (par exemple, le tourteau de soja). Les disparités entre les alimentations IBF et conventionnelles reflètent l’utilisation des capacités sub-optimaux des systèmes (effet d’économie d’échelle insuffisant), ainsi que la perte d’énergie et de biomasse le long de la chaîne trophique (producteurs autotrophes vs consommateurs hétérotrophes). Les résultats soulèvent des doutes légitimes sur les avantages en termes de durabilité d’une mise en œuvre d'insectes dans les chaînes de valeur agricoles actuelles. Le succès commercial dépend en grande partie du niveau de salaire spécifique au contexte, des prix des substrats d'élevage et de la manière dont les marchés évaluent les multiples fonctions que les insectes sont capables de fournir. S'agissant de la performance environnementale, nos résultats nous amènent à conclure que la production d'IBF ne présente aucun avantage par rapport aux aliments conventionnels.L’évaluation de systèmes de production encore hypothétiques impliquait une bonne quantité d’hypothèses et d’approximations. Étant donné ces multiples sources d'incertitude et compte tenu du fait que seul un nombre limité de conceptions de systèmes possibles sont prises en compte, les déclarations sur le potentiel d'application d'IBF n'ont aucune validité universelle et doivent être interprétées avec prudence. Cependant, nos résultats contribuent à une meilleure compréhension des facteurs influant sur le potentiel d’application des systèmes de production d’insectes et constituent un point de référence précieux pour les discussions scientifiques et les activités de recherche et développement futures visant à mettre en place des modes de production alimentaire durables.Bien que nos recherches n’apportent aucun soutien aux avantages environnementaux ou économiques supposés de l’utilisation d’insectes dans l’alimentation animale, il est possible que leur utilisation comme aliment destiné à la consommation humaine directe (c’est-à-dire comme substitut possible aux produits à base de poisson et de viande) constitue une solution durable aux problèmes actuels et futurs. Nous recommandons donc aux recherches futures de se concentrer sur les techniques permettant d'exploiter les insectes comme nourriture.

Abstract (sommario):

A new economic model for the evaluation of integrated Design, Production, and Logistic Support Systems (DPLSSs) is designed and developed in this thesis. The DPLSS model was created after a survey of Life Cycle Costing (LCC) applications revealed that no models for assessing integrated design, production, and logistic support systems were available. The evaluation technique the model is based on is called Life Cycle Value Assessment (LCVA). LCVA differs from LCC in that it emphasizes consideration of life cycle revenues as well as costs. The system addressed by the DPLSS model has a life cycle which includes product design, production capability design and construction, production, product distribution, logistic system support and maintenance, and system disposal. The baseline production capability assumed when developing the DPLSS model involves batch processing, forming the base material into individual units, and performing detailed processing operations. It has also been assumed that items produced are non-repairable. The DPLSS model facilitates the evaluation of new DPLSSs by leading managers through the new LCVA methodology, A Cost Breakdown Structure (CBS) which is compatible with the DPLSS life cycle has been developed as a basis for the model. This CBS is used to address DPLSSs descriptively and nonnatively during LCVA evaluations. A menu-driven computer program has also been developed to implement the DPLSS model on an IBM PC. This program leads users through the new LCVA-based methodology, performs economic and sensitivity analyses on their inputs, and then allows "what-if?â analyses on varying system configurations to be performed.

Abstract (sommario):

While families in rural Guatemala recognize the value of vaccination and mostly vaccinate their children at early ages, they often fail to follow through with the course of treatment, drastically reducing the probability of immunization. To encourage members of underserved communities to complete the vaccination cycle, community health workers were given monthly lists of children due for vaccination at the clinic, enabling them to send timely reminders to families. Reminders increased the likelihood that children completed their vaccination treatment by 2.2 percentage points in the treatment communities. For children in treatment communities who were due to receive a vaccine, and whose parents were expected to be reminded of the due date, the probability of vaccination completion increased by 4.6 percentage points.

Abstract (sommario):

The main objectives of this study are to investigate the trends in primary pavement materials’ unit price over time and to develop statistical models and guidelines for using predictive unit prices of pavement materials instead of uniform unit prices in life cycle cost analysis (LCCA) for future maintenance and rehabilitation (M&R) projects. Various socio-economic data were collected for the past 20 years (1997–2018) in California, including oil price, population, government expenditure in transportation, vehicle registration, and other key variables, in order to identify factors affecting pavement materials’ unit price. Additionally, the unit price records of the popular pavement materials were categorized by project size (small, medium, large, and extra-large). The critical variables were chosen after identifying their correlations, and the future values of each variable were predicted through time-series analysis. Multiple regression models using selected socio-economic variables were developed to predict the future values of pavement materials’ unit price. A case study was used to compare the results between the uniform unit prices in the current LCCA procedures and the unit prices predicted in this study. In LCCA, long-term prediction involves uncertainties due to unexpected economic trends and industrial demand and supply conditions. Economic recessions and a global pandemic are examples of unexpected events which can have a significant influence on variations in material unit prices and project costs. Nevertheless, the data-driven scientific approach as described in this research reduces risk caused by such uncertainties and enables reasonable predictions for the future. The statistical models developed to predict the future unit prices of the pavement materials through this research can be implemented to enhance the current LCCA procedure and predict more realistic unit prices and project costs for the future M&R activities, thus promoting the most cost-effective alternative in LCCA.
