Agent-Based Models of Energy Investment Decisions

This book demonstrates how bounded rational decision models can be standardized and parameterized by socio-economic data. Focusing on private energy technology investment decisions, the author shows how different representative agents can be constructed using search rules, analysis tools and decision strategies. Diffusion curves for energy technologies such as solar collectors, boilers and efficiency upgrades for buildings are calculated. Further, the model is extended to study the impact of firms’ competition on technology diffusion. The modeling approach presented in this book may serve as a template for applications in other domain.

Advanced Combustion and Aerothermal Technologies : Environmental Protection and Pollution Reductions

This book about Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Workshop “Advanced Combustion and Aerothermal Technologies: Environmental Protection and Pollution Reductions” was held in Kiev (Ukraine) from 15 to 19 May 2006 and was organized by the Institute of Engineering Thermophysics (Ukraine) and Cardiff University (UK). These subjects to cover the critical areas of combustion and aerothermal research and development where rapid progress is needed to improve performance in terms of efficiency, compactness, and emissions. This was a very timely and successful Workshop which brought together experts from the NATO and other countries to discuss increasing concerns about emissions.
