Testing properties governing the durability of lime-based repair mortars

open access: yesRILEM Technical Letters, 2019
Lime-based mortars (LM(s)) seem to be preferred in repairing historic structures. The long-term performance of repair LM(s) is closely related to durability issues concerning the old structure substrate, the new repair mortars and interface between the ...

Collusion and Durability [PDF]

open access: yes, 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]

open access: yes, 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 ...
