Collusion and Durability [PDF]
, 2008 We develop a model to show that cartels that produce goods with lower durability are easier to sustain implicitly. This observation gen- erates the following results: 1) implicit cartels have an incentive to pro- duce goods with an inefficiently low ...

Monopoly Distortions in Durability and Multi-Dimensional Quality [PDF]
, 2009 I show that Swan’s (1970) independence result requires a multiplicative interaction between durability and all other quality attributes. Because there is no compelling argument for a multiplicativity in quality, monopolists tend to distort durability ...

Theoretical backgrounds of durability analysis by normalized equivalent stress functionals [PDF]
, 2003 Generalized durability diagrams and their properties are considered for a material under a multiaxial loading given by an arbitrary function of time. Material strength and durability under such loading are described in terms of durability, safety factor ...
