Decision-making in Humanitarian Operations
This book brings together research in humanitarian operations, behavioral operations and dynamic simulation. Part I outlines the main characteristics and strategic challenges of humanitarian organizations in preparedness, knowledge management, climate change and issues related to refugees and social inclusion. Part II gives an introduction to behavioral operations and experiments in single- and multi-agent settings, followed by discussions on quantal theory, framing effect and possible applications in the humanitarian sector. Part III introduces system dynamics and agent-based modeling and discusses how these techniques can be used to study dynamics and decision-making in humanitarian operations. This book is unique in providing a holistic view of the decision-making process and challenges in the humanitarian sector.
Behavioral Operational Research
Behavioral research is making a significant impact on many academic disciplines. Its status as the source of some of the most profound research in the social sciences is unparalleled. Therefore, it is not surprising that interest in Behavior and Operational Research (OR) is burgeoning, even though understanding the relationship between knowledge, behavior and action has been an academic preoccupation in OR since the beginning of the discipline. This book introduces the idea of Behavioral OR, where the theoretical and empirical developments in the behavioral field are making an impression on OR academics and practitioners alike. The book provides a much needed overview that connects together theory, methodology and practice and offers the “state of the art” on Behavioral Operational Research theory and practice. The book not only includes chapters by leading academics, but also includes rich and insightful real-life case studies by practitioners.
MSEA 2023
The 2nd International Conference on Mathematical Statistics and Economic Analysis (MSEA 2023) was held virtually from 26-28 May 2023 in Nanjing, China. The conference was attended by researchers, teachers, students and engineers in the field of mathematical statistics and economic analysis. Through data statistics and analysis, we can quickly understand the pattern of economic development. This conference combines mathematical statistics and economic analysis, explores the relationship between the two, and provides a platform for experts and scholars in the fields of mathematical statistics and economic analysis to discuss related issues and exchange ideas. Therefore, we hope to create a forum for sharing research results and exploring future research directions, so that participants can learn about the latest research directions, contents and results of mathematical statistics and economic analysis; secondly, we hope that the conference can provide solutions to the major problems facing mathematical statistics and economic analysis, and create a space that encourages discussion and joint development of research, technological development and innovation.

Servicios complementarios en sistemas eléctricos de potencia
Si bien las economías modernas se conciben con un servicio de energía eléctrica seguro, las interrupciones en los últimos años demuestran la vulnerabilidad de los sistemas de potencia. En este libro se proponen alternativas que se evalúan a través de diferentes técnicas de simulación, para su implementación en un contexto de mercado.
Localización, transporte e inventarios
La logística, como campo de estudio, inició su evolución desde la posguerra y hoy plantea la necesidad de integrar las operaciones de los diversos actores de las denominadas cadenas de abastecimiento. Este libro establece las principales tendencias en la localización de instalaciones, los inventarios y el transporte, y plantea su necesaria integración en la solución de problemas de diseño de las cadenas de abastecimiento.
Análisis de fallas de estructuras y elementos mecánicos
Este texto se diseñó para servir en cursos de pregrado y posgrado de análisis de fallas de elementos mecánicos y estructuras, y como elemento de consulta para profesionales en ejercicio en esta área. Se presenta la metodología básica del análisis de fallas, así como una descripción detallada de la mayoría de modos de falla por deformación, fractura, desgaste y corrosión que se presentan en elementos mecánicos y estructuras metálicas. A lo largo del libro se usan ejemplos de casos de falla, cuyo análisis fue abordado por los autores, para poder describir mejor las características de cada modo de falla y sus causas más comunes.
Electricity and Energy Policy in Britain, France and the United States Since 1945
. . . it s a valuable and laudable work. . . I found it interesting and helpful to have an account of the parallel developments in the other two countries. . . An analysis of important aspects of British and French energy policy development based on primary sources is a worthwhile contribution. A broad comparative synthesis of energy policy in the three countries is also a worthwhile contribution. John Neufeld, EH.NET The main objective of this very interesting book is to analyse from economic history and political economy perspectives the similarities and differences in the forms that the electricity sector has been organized and the ways that energy policy has developed in Britain, France,...
