Landform planning: using science and economics to reduce operating costs and closure risk [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Conference on Mine Closure, 2012
Landforms of mined waste are the most obvious physical remnant of open pit mining operations. Reflecting this, they represent an important element of closure and relinquishment, and should be safe, stable, appropriately vegetated and represent minimal ongoing environmental risk.

Economic Dispatch for Operating Cost Minimization Under Real-Time Pricing in Droop-Controlled DC Microgrid [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Emerging and Selected Topics in Power Electronics, 2017
In this paper, an economic dispatch problem for total operation cost minimization in DC microgrids is formulated. An operating cost is associated with each generator in themicrogrid, including the utility grid, combining the cost-efficiency of the system with demand response requirements of the utility.

A Note on the "Stock Effect" [PDF]

open access: yes
The “stock effect†implies that unit operating costs will be sensitive to the size of the exploited fish stock(s). This is investigated using data for Norwegian trawlers.

Fishing Capacity and Harvest Rules [PDF]

open access: yes
In this note we consider the choice of optimum fishing capacity for fish stocks that vary at random. In models with stochastic variations of fish stocks, optimum fishing capacity is normally a decision variable separate from fishing effort.

HEATING COSTS AND HOUSEHOLD WOOD STOVE ACQUISITION: A DISCRETE CHOICE DEMAND MODEL [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper examines the acquisition of wood stoves by New Hampshire households through use of a utility-maximizing discrete choice model. The analysis is based on the hypothesis that wood stoves are acquired to decrease the monetary costs of home-heating.
