Dump trucks are used for transportation in opencast mines and consume about 32% of the total energy use in mines. This paper presents a generic model to benchmark energy consumption for dump trucks in mines. The modelling framework estimates minimum specific fuel consumption (SFC) of dump trucks...

We consider a neo-classical model of optimal economic growth with c.r.r.a. utility in which the traditional deterministic trends representing population growth, technological progress, depreciation and impatience are replaced by Brownian motions with drift. When transformed to 'intensive' units,...

There is a wide literature about the behaviour of agents in a stock-market in the presence of imitation phenomena. Some issues may be treated in a game-theory context. In particular, we consider a micro-model of stock-market speculator and formalise it in a Stackelberg game. The problem consists...

The risk based regulation approach is reasonable. There are some prerequisites and some limitations to its use which are discussed at length in the paper (e.g. degree of reliability of data, the type of risk indicators, cool-efficiency criterion etc.). Various types of schools on liability laws...
