Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChaotic Discrimination and Non-Linear DynamicsPartha GangopadhyayThis study examines a particular form of price discrimination, known as chaotic discrimination, which has the following features: sellers quote a common price but, in reality, they engage in secret and apparently unsystematic price discounts. It is widely held that such forms of price discrimination are seriously inconsistent with profit maximization by sellers.. However, there is no theoretical salience to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2005 · 6,757 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConsidering Environmental Externalities in Technology Selection: the Case of Urban Buses for AthensDimitrios A. GeorgakellosThe present study proposes a procedure for considering the environmental externalities in technology selection decision-making, based on the outcome of Life Cycle Assessments. Currently, even if there are several methods available for technology selection and purchasing, almost all of them seem to ignore the external cost associated with the candidates. The main features of the proposed model are its simplicity … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2005 · 7,002 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFourier Series With Spectral and Wave Number DecompositionJung-Hua Chou, Raylin WuIn this study, the generic nature of Fourier series is pointed out and the requirement of dimensional homogeneity for physical systems is emphasized. By suitable application of non-dimensional variables, both time versus frequency and spatial versus wave number decomposition of Fourier series are included properly to put the physics involved into the right physical meanings. Furthermore, the high frequency noise … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2004 · 7,249 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProgramming of the Generalized Nonlinear Paraxial Equation for the Formation of Solitons with MathematicaFrederick Osman, Robert BeechThis study presents the nonlinearity and dispersion effects involved in the propagation of optical solitons which can be understood by using a numerical routine to solve the Generalized Nonlinear Paraxial equation. A sequence of code has been developed in Mathematica, to explore in depth several features of the optical soliton’s formation and propagation. These numerical routines were implemented through the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2004 · 6,784 accessesView PDFCite
