Can cross-border pollution reduce pollution?
(2002)We develop a two-country model of foreign aid and cross-border pollution resulting from production activities in the recipient country. There is both private and public abatement of pollution, the latter being financed ...

Container movement by trucks in metropolitan networks: Modeling and optimization
(2005)Container movement by trucks with time constraints at origins and destinations is modeled as an asymmetric "multi-Traveling Salesmen Problem with Time Windows" (m-TSPTW) with social constraints. A two-phase exact algorithm ...

Modeling the diffusion of strategies: An application to exporting
(2009)We examine whether the spread of an exporting strategy can be characterized as a diffusion process using a general framework that accounts for attrition and changes in the pool of potential adopters and allows the diffusion ...

On modelling speculative prices: the empirical literature
(2001)Traditionally, financial theory and in particular asset pricing models have assumed (implicitly or explicitly) a certain probabilistic structure for speculative prices. The probabilistic structure is usually defined in ...

Robust determinants of intergenerational mobility in the land of opportunity
(2016)This paper revisits the influential work by Chetty et al. (2014) who attempt to explain the variation in intergenerational mobility across commuter zones in the US (i.e., spatial mobility) using nine classes of variables. ...

Spatial models for variability of significant wave height in world oceans
(2008)Significant wave height (Hs) is a measure of the variability of the ocean surface. Benefits from knowing the spatial and temporal characteristics of this field are multiple: It is useful to size offshore structures, to ...

Spatio-temporal statistical modelling of significant wave height
(2009)In this paper, we construct a homogeneous spatio-temporal model to describe the variability of significant wave height over small regions of the sea and over short periods of time. Then, the model is extended to a ...

Structure and scales in turbulence modeling
(2002)The enstrophy of the large-scale energy-containing turbulence is proposed as the second turbulence scale for use, in conjunction with the turbulence energy, in two-scale one-point engineering turbulence models. Its transport ...

Structure-based turbulence model: Application to a rotating pipe flow
(2002)A new approach for modeling the one-point turbulence statistics, which takes into account the information on turbulence structure, has been suggested in Kassinos and Reynolds (Report TF-61, Thermosciences Division, Department ...
