Risk premia and the social cost of carbon: A review
Kousky, Carolyn; Kopp, Robert E.; Cooke, Roger M. - In: Economics: The Open-Access, Open-Assessment E-Journal 5 (2011) 2011-21, pp. 1-24
risk of catastrophic impacts. However, estimates of the social cost of carbon, which measures the marginal value of carbon … dioxide abatement, often do not capture this risk reduction benefit. Risk-averse individuals are willing to pay a risk premium … estimates obtained for calculating a risk premium to be included in the social cost of carbon. While more research is needed in …

A goal geometric programming problem (G 2 P 2) with logarithmic deviational variables and its applications on two industrial problems
Ghosh, Payel; Roy, Tapan - In: Journal of Industrial Engineering International 9 (2013), pp. 1-9
A very useful multi-objective technique is goal programming. There are many methodologies of goal programming such as weighted goal programming, min-max goal programming, and lexicographic goal programming. In this paper, weighted goal programming is reformulated as goal programming with...

Reliability analysis of a robotic system using hybridized technique
Kumar, Naveen; Lather, J. S. - In: Journal of Industrial Engineering International 14 (2018) 3, pp. 443-453
In this manuscript, the reliability of a robotic system has been analyzed using the available data (containing vagueness, uncertainty, etc). Quantification of involved uncertainties is done through data fuzzification using triangular fuzzy numbers with known spreads as suggested by system...

A new statistical method for design and analyses of component tolerance
Movahedi, Mohammad Mehdi; Khounisiavash, Mohsen; Otadi, … - In: Journal of Industrial Engineering International 13 (2017) 1, pp. 59-66
Tolerancing conducted by design engineers to meet customers' needs is a prerequisite for producing highquality products. Engineers use handbooks to conduct tolerancing. While use of statistical methods for tolerancing is not something new, engineers often use known distributions, including the...

Aggregated GP-based optimization for contaminant source localization
Krityakierne, Tipaluck; Baowan, Duangkamon - In: Operations Research Perspectives 7 (2020), pp. 1-10
Recently a new simulation-based optimization benchmark of groundwater contaminant source localization problems has been introduced to the hydrogeological science community. Given information on contaminant concentration levels at each monitoring well and each time step, its objective is to...

Optimization of capacity expansion in potential-driven networks including multiple looping: a comparison of modelling approaches
Lenz, Ralf; Becker, Kai Helge - In: OR Spectrum 44 (2021) 1, pp. 179-224
In commodity transport networks such as natural gas, hydrogen and water networks, flows arise from nonlinear potential differences between the nodes, which can be represented by so-called potential-driven network models. When operators of these networks face increasing demand or the need to...

Was ist die beste Strategie eines "solidarischen" Ausgleichs der Krankheitslasten in einem wettbewerblichen Krankenversicherungssystem: Obergrenzen für Versicherungsbeiträge oder r...
van de Ven, Wynand P. M. M. - In: Vierteljahrshefte zur Wirtschaftsforschung 71 (2002) 4, pp. 477-489
In den 90er Jahren wurden die Krankenkassenmärkte in einigen Ländern wettbewerblicher gestaltet. Eine einfache und nahe liegende Strategie, um in einem solchen Markt einen "solidarischen" Ausgleich der Krankheitslasten zu erzielen, sind Obergrenzen für Versicherungsbeiträge. Jedoch birgt...
