  1. 1. Valuing environmental benefits using the contingent valuation method : an econometric analysis

    Author : Bengt Kriström; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; environmental benefits; contingent valuation; econometrics; discrete response data; continuous and discrete valuation questions; cost-benefit analysis;

    Abstract : The purpose of this study is to investigate methods for assessing the value people place on preserving our natural environments and resources. It focuses on the contingent valuation method, which is a method for directly asking people about their preferences. READ MORE

  2. 2. Applied Methods for Analysis of Economic Structure and Change

    Author : Christer Anderstig; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Economic structure; Input-output models; Information theory; Multinomial logit; Housing choice; Spectral analysis; Urban development;

    Abstract : The thesis comprises five papers and an introductory overview of applied models and methods. The papers concern interdependences and interrelations in models applied to empirical analyses of various problems related to production, consumption, location and trade. READ MORE

  3. 3. Homogenization of some elliptic equations with connections to elasticity

    Author : Klas Pettersson; Patrizia Donato; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematics; Matematik; Mathematics; Matematik;

    Abstract : In this PhD thesis we prove some properties of elliptic equations in connection with periodic homogenization. We mainly study the stationary linearized elasticity system. This thesis consists of five papers complemented with a short introduction.The first paper concerns some elliptic equations on a domain with oscillating boundary. READ MORE

  4. 4. Transport and location analysis

    Author : Jonas Eliasson; KTH; []
    Keywords : transport; land use; models; location; logit; road pricing; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : This dissertation consists of seven papers. InTime and income constraints in discrete choice models withan application to mode choice, we discuss how variouseffects of time and income constraints can be included indiscrete choice models. READ MORE

  5. 5. A moving boundary problem for capturing the penetration of diffusant concentration into rubbers : Modeling, simulation and analysis

    Author : Surendra Nepal; Adrian Muntean; Yosief Wondmagegne; Magnus Ögren; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Moving boundary problem; finite element method; a priori error estimate; a posteriori error estimate; order of convergence; diffusion of chemicals into rubber; swelling; Matematik; Mathematics;

    Abstract : We propose a moving-boundary scenario to model the penetration of diffusants into rubbers. Immobilizing the moving boundary by using the well-known Landau transformation transforms the original governing equations into new equations posed in a fixed domain. READ MORE
