A Simulation-Based Heuristic to Find Approximate Equilibria with Disaggregate Demand Models

Michel Bierlaire, Virginie Janine Camille Lurkin, Stefano Bortolomiol

Oligopolistic competition occurs in various transportation markets. In this paper, we introduce a framework to find approximate equilibrium solutions of oligopolistic markets in which demand is modeled at the disaggregate level using discrete choice models ...

Price-based regulation of oligopolistic markets under discrete choice models of demand

Michel Bierlaire, Virginie Janine Camille Lurkin, Stefano Bortolomiol

We propose a framework to find optimal price-based policies to regulate markets characterized by oligopolistic competition and in which consumers make a discrete choice among a finite set of alternatives. The framework accommodates general discrete choice ...

Techno-economic assessment of postcombustion carbon capture using high-performance nanoporous single-layer graphene membranes

Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Mostapha Dakhchoune, Marina Micari

High-performance membranes have emerged as an energy-efficient alternative to absorption-based postcombustion carbon capture. So far, the techno-economic analyses have been centered around the polymeric membranes. Recently, nanoporous single-layer graphene ...

Does protectionist anti-takeover legislation lead to managerial entrenchment?

Marc André Frattaroli

I study a protectionist anti takeover law introduced in 2014 that covers a subset of all firms in the economy. The law decreased affected firms' likelihood of becoming the target of a merger or acquisition and had a negative impact on shareholder value. Th ...

Species identity, rather than species mixtures, drives cover crop effects on nutrient partitioning in unfertilized agricultural soil

Alexandre Buttler, Pierre Rémi Mariotte, Mathieu Raymond Santonja, Lucas Georges Jean-Paul Freund

Aims Previous cover crop studies mainly focused on the links between plant uptake and soil fertility, and there is a clear knowledge gap regarding the role of microbes in these processes. Our aim was then to better understand the effects of plant mixtures ...

A demand-based optimization approach to find market equilibria in oligopolies

Stefano Bortolomiol

Oligopolistic competition occurs often in transportation as well as in other markets due to reasons such as barriers to entry, limited capacity of the infrastructure and external regulations. In transport oligopolies, suppliers are profit maximizers and ta ...

A demand-based optimization approach to find market equilibria in oligopolies

Michel Bierlaire, Virginie Janine Camille Lurkin, Stefano Bortolomiol

Oligopolistic competition occurs when a small number of operators compete for the same pool of customers. This is often the case in transportation, due to reasons such as external regulations, economies of scale and limited capacity of the infrastructure. ...

No money, no honey? Financial versus knowledge and demand constraints on innovation

Gabriele Pellegrino

The paper adds to the literature on the barriers to innovation in two ways. First, we assess comparatively what mostly constrains firms' ability to translate investment in innovation activity into new products and processes, whether it is mainly finance, a ...

The Beacon: A New Framework for Business Model Reconfiguration for Complex Enterprises

Deep Ramnik Parekh

During the last twenty years we have witnessed the steady rise in academic research and practitioner interest and inquiry on the topic of business models. The topic is still in its infancy, and thus a lot of literature hitherto has focused on the basics: d ...

Design guidelines for concentrated photo-electrochemical water splitting devices based on energy and greenhouse gas yield ratios

Sophia Haussener, Mikaël Dumortier

Device and system design choices for solar energy conversion and storage approaches require holistic design guidelines which simultaneously respect and optimize technical, economic, sustainability, and operating time constraints. We developed a simulation ...

Innovation and Market Structure in Pharmaceuticals: An Econometric Analysis on Simulated Data

Michele Pezzoni

The contribution of this paper is twofold. First, it presents the results of a "history-friendly" simulation model of evolution of the pharmaceutical industry. Second, it aims at contributing to a more general methodological discussion about agent-based mo ...

Extent-based incremental identification of reaction systems – Minimal number of measurements for full state reconstruction

Dominique Bonvin, Julien Léo Billeter, Sriniketh Srinivasan

The identification of kinetic models is an essential step for the monitoring, control and optimization of industrial processes. This is particularly true for the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, where the current trend of strong competition calls fo ...

Catalysts for High Temperature Gas Cleaning in the Production of Synthetic Natural Gas from Biomass

Bio synthetic natural gas (Bio-SNG) is being proposed as an alternative to the natural gas of fossil origin (NG) [1]. Bio-SNG consists mainly of CH4 (at least 95%mol), has a high heating value (e.g. 10 kWh/m3N), and respects the quality standards of the NG ...

Neo-Rawlsian fringes: A new approach to market segmentation and new product development

Christopher Tucci

Prior research into the link between new product development and market segmentation has focused on two main approaches: (1) design, segment, and do limited competitive evaluation; and (2) segment first, design second. This paper proposes a third approach, ...

On optimal bidding strategy modeling in the context of a liberalized electricity market

Elena Vdovina Beck

The electricity markets worldwide have distinctive particularities due to some political and historical reasons. However, principal guidelines of market design remain very similar. The main feature of deregulation is to introduce a competition into the gen ...

Linking chemical speciation to metal bioavailability : role of dissolved organic matter on cadmium and lead bioavailability by green microalgae

Cristina Lamelas

It is recognized that dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays an utmost role in aquatic ecosystems by binding trace metals and influencing their speciation, bioavailability and detrimental effects. DOM is considered to protect the aquatic microorganisms from ...

A multi-agent approach for planning activities in decentralized electricity markets

Edgard Gnansounou, Jun Dong

Despite the rigour and ability of game theory to cope with oligopolistic electric markets, it fails to model many existing behaviours in the real-world circumstances. The traditional models such as statistical extrapolation or econometrics are not capable ...
