Texto completoThis research examines the NAVAL SURFACE FORCES Real-Time Reutilization Asset Management Warehouse operations, associated costs, and benefits it provides the Navy. Our methodology is to utilize established cost-benefit analysis techniques in order to provide the Navy with information to determine whether the benefits of storing, inventorying and providing free issue parts to customers are worth the costs of operating and maintaining the warehouses. The objective is to focus on total warehouse operating costs and compare these costs to the savings the Navy receives through storing and providing the repair parts. The results can help decision makers determine if the warehouse operations are beneficial as is, should be remodeled to increase benefits, or simply do not cover the associated costs. The research concluded that the warehouses generate an annual cost avoidance of $4 8 million, direct revenue of $5 million, and fill 2,300 high-priority requisitions.

Texto completoENGLISH ABSTRACT: In this study, a cost benefit analysis was done to determine the best possible methods for postmining reclamation. A comparison was made between a conventional method with additional organic material added to the soil and a Backgrounding method where cattle are reared on the land. The best method, according to the financial model that was built, was the method of Backgrounding cattle on the rehabilitated land. The main reason for this outcome may be due to the fact that the meat that is produced is a high value product. It might not be practically applicable to mines at this stage, but the calculation provides an insight into the possibilities that reclaimed mine land holds for the agricultural industry.

Texto completoThis thesis investigates the effect of the proposed Surface Warfare Officer Career Incentive Pay (SWOCIP) program on the voluntary separation behavior of Navy surface warfare officers using an Annualized Cost of Leaving (ACOL) model. Data provided by the Center for Naval Analyses and the Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC), Monterey CA, on surface warfare officers are used for this analysis. Multivariate predict models are estimated to predict the effects of the proposed SWOCIP program on the voluntary retention rate of surface warfare officers between six and ten years of service. These estimates are used to calculate the costs and benefits of the SWOCIP program. This thesis finds that the SWOCIP program would increase the voluntary retention rate by 2. 62 percent in the sixth year of service and 1.16 percent in the seventh year of service. The effect would decrease between eight and ten years of service. The calculated savings in accessions are greater then the estimated bonus cost. These calculations indicate, therefore, that the program is cost-effective

Texto completoThe choice of a guided surface transit system operated on separated RoW is a complex and difficult task. Even if different transit systems could provide equivalent services to users, we often lack the necessary information to better distinguish among different systems. Beyond giving a presentation of different surface guided systems structuring the public transport networks in France, the aim of this research is to conduct a comparative analysis in order to better guide decisions of local authorities in their efforts to promote urban transport that meets the challenges of sustainable development. The advantages and the drawbacks of each system are analyzed and presented in a disaggregated way. In addition, a multicriteria method ELECTRE III is proposed and discussed for aggregating the results and proposing system(s) best suited for different operating conditions. The main result shows that the modern tramway on rail occupies a privileged place in most scenarios. However, the CIVIS, Translohr, TVR and even trolleybuses have their places with respect to operating conditions, given that the related infrastructure and operating costs are taken into account. The results of this research therefore encourage us to recommend, every time we propose a surface transit system, to review the whole range of systems and to do the comparative analysis with different context and time constraints integrating mid-term and long-term visions and predictable effects on the urban requalification

Texto completoLa ricerca mira a dare un contributo significativo alla ricostruzione della viabilità antica, di epoca romana e soprattutto di epoca medievale. La ricostruzione della rete viaria è stata effettuata attraverso apposite applicazioni di analisi spaziale contenute nei software GIS, in particolare è stata utilizzata la Cost Surface Analysis e la Line of Sight. Spesso la ricostruzione della rete viaria e resa alquanto difficile, sopratutto in territori che sono stati soggetti a bonifiche , culture intensive o a dissesti idrogeologici, in queste zone il dato archeologico è spesso mancante o parziale, ed è in questi casi che la tecnologia GIS, e più precisamente l'analisi spaziale, può aiutare a ricostruire il tracciato viario e fornire nuovi dati che possono essere usati per ulteriori analisi o per confutare e consolidare delle tesi o delle ipotesi. Le elaborazioni spaziali sono tecniche di simulazione finalizzate a classificare, rappresentare e interpretare il paesaggio archeologico, in micro o macro scala, sulla base delle relazioni spaziali e diacroniche che intercorrono fra elementi antropici, naturali, ambientali e, in parte, secondo fattori socio politici. L’analisi spaziale fa misurazioni e ha l’obiettivo di definire un quadro di riferimento all’interno del quale realizzare osservazioni. In particolare il cost surface analysis calcola l'energia consumata da un individuo che si sposta da un punto ad un altro; questo tipo di analisi ci consente non solo di valutare le percorrenze, ma anche ricostruire le strade ed i percorsi di un paesaggio antico. L’altra analisi che abbiamo effettuato e la line of sight o anche Viewshed analysis; calcola il campo visuale umano sulla base delle caratteristiche morfologiche ed ambientali del territorio, e le relazioni spaziali tra i siti all'interno del paesaggio. Le zone da me prese in considerazione per effettuare le prime analisi sono il territorio tra Gemona, Ragogna e Spilinbergo e la provincia di Trieste. Nel primo caso, dopo una prima fase di raccolta dei dati, la nostra attenzione si è concentrata sul tentativo di ricostruire la viabilità di epoca romana e medievale nella zona di trovare il possibile punto di guado sul fiume Tagliamento ed infine verificare se i castelli avessero o meno il controllo sulla rete viaria e sul guado. Per dare una risposta a queste domande abbiamo effettuato prevalentemente due tipi di analisi: il cost surface analysis e il line of sight. Come secondo caso di studio abbiamo analizzato la viabilità, soprattutto di epoca medievale, che attraversava una particolare zona della provincia triestina: la Val Rosandra. Ci siamo riproposti di ricostruire la viabilità nella zona e di confrontarla con i dati storici ed archeologici ed inoltre di verificare se vi era la possibilità di una viabilità principale che attraversasse la valle. Infine abbiamo confrontato i risultati ottenuti con la cartografia storica ed in particolare il rilievo cartografico Giuseppino di fine ‘700. In un ultima fase abbiamo controllato numerose foto aeree, concentrandoci sulla zona comprese tra Osoppo e san Daniele, alla ricerca di possibili anomalie collegabili alla viabilità. I voli visionati sono diversi:volo GAI 1954, Volo IGM 1971, volo R.A.F. 1976 a bassa quota e ad alta quota, volo E.N.E.L. 1976, volo CGR 1986, volo CGR 1998. Una prima analisi ci ha permesso di rilevare diverse possibili anomalie nella zona ad est di Osoppo, a sud di Ragogna e presso san Daniele.

Texto completoPlanerare som arbetar bland annat med att fatta beslut som hänsyftar till vissa lokaler använder ofta rasterbaserade geografiska informationssystem (GIS) för att sätta ett värde på marken med avseende på lämplighet eller kostnad för en viss användning. Ur en beräkningssynpunkt kan denna process ses som en transformation av en eller flera uppsättningar värden associerade med ett rutnät av celler till en annan uppsättning sådana värden genom en funktion som återspeglar ett eller flera kriterier. Medan det generellt förväntas att olika omvandlingar leder till olika "bästa" platser, har lite varit känt om hur sådana skillnader uppstår (eller inte uppstår). Exempel på sådana rumsliga beslutsproblem kan lätt hittas i litteraturen och många av dem handlar om valet av en uppsättning celler (som markanvändningen övervägs tilldelas) från en rasteryta av lämplighet eller kostnad beroende på kontext. För att underlätta GISs algoritmiska tillvägagångssätt antas det ofta att kvaliteten på uppsättningen av celler kan utvärderas som helhet genom summan av deras cellvärden. Giltigheten av detta antagande måste emellertid ifrågasättas om dessa värden mäts på en skala som inte tillåter aritmetiska transformationer. Användning av ordinal skala enligt Stevens typologi är ett exempel av detta. En fråga uppstår naturligt: Finns det ett mer matematiskt sunt och konsekvent tillvägagångssätt för att utvärdera kvaliteten på en rutt när kvaliteten på varje cell i det givna rutnätet mäts med ordinalskala? Avhandlingen försöker svara på ovanstående frågor i samband med ruttplanering genom en serie beräkningsexperiment med hjälp av ett antal slumpmässigt genererade landskapsnät med en rad olika rumsliga och icke-rumsliga strukturer. I den första uppsättningen experiment genererade vi minsta-kostnad rutter på ett antal kostnadsnät som transformerats från landskapsnätverket med hjälp av en mängd olika transformationsparametrar, och analyserade lägen och de (viktade) längderna för dessa rutter. Resultaten visar att samma par ändpunkter mycket väl kan vara sammanbundna med olika minsta-kostnad banor på olika kostnadsraster härledda från samma landskapsraster, och att variationen mellan dessa banor påverkas av hur givna värden fördelas i landskapsrastret såväl som av hur härledda värden fördelas i kostnadsrastret. Mest signifikant är att variationen tenderar att vara mindre när landskapsrastret innehåller mer distinkta grupper av celler som potentiellt lockar eller distraherar kostnadsbesparande passage, eller när kostnadsrastret innehåller ett mindre antal låg-kostnad celler. Den andra uppsättningen experiment syftar till att jämföra två optimeringsmodeller, minisum och minimax (eller maximin) sökmodeller, vilka sammanställer värdena för cellerna som är associerade med en sökväg med summanfunktionen respektive maximum (eller minimum) funktionen. Resultaten tyder på att minisumbanemodellen är effektiv om sökningen av sökvägen kan översättas till det konventionella minsta kostnadsproblemet, vilket syftar till att hitta en väg med den minsta kostnadsvägda längden mellan två terminaler på en ratio-skalad rasterkostyta, men minimax (eller maximin) banmodellen är matematiskt sundare om kostnadsvärdena mäts i ordinär skala och praktiskt användbar om problemet inte bara avser minimering av kostnad men samtidigt maximering av någon önskvärd egenskap såsom lämplighet.

Texto completoIn 2004, the Department of Minerals and Energy (DME, predecessor to the current Department of Mineral Resources - DMR) published a guideline to calculate the amount that a mining right holder would require for financial provision at mine closure. This research report reviews the guideline, specifically focussing on the “rules-based approach” for determining the quantum of financial provision. Some authors have recorded the misapplication of this guideline in practice and their research supports a conclusion that the guideline does not provide adequately for the real costs of mine closure. This research report makes a comparison between the DME guideline master rates for mine closure costs and actual tendered prices for those same elements of mine closure in the period from 2009 – 2016. The analysis of the actual tender prices for the various master- and component rates in comparison with the DME guideline rates delivered mixed results. While the actual tender values exceeded the guideline master rates in most cases, there were notable exceptions where the actual tender results lagged the master rates. The data obtained from the actual tender prices for mine rehabilitation projects by a third party suggests that the use of CPI to escalate mine rehabilitation costs was very quickly overtaken in reality by higher annual costs and rate increases for most of the DME guideline master rates that relate to surface mining. It means that the DME guideline master rates were not reflective of actual rehabilitation costs by the time that the use of the DME guideline was superseded by the publication of new regulations by the Department of Environmental Affairs in November 2017. Whilst no perfectly linear and distinct relationship could be deduced, the results broadly support the findings of several authors that the actual costs to rehabilitate a mine are much more than the DME guideline document would lead a mine to provide for. The application of a rules-based approach remains an exercise mired in controversy and with many potential inaccuracies. The new NEMA regulations for financial provision completely negate the need for a guideline and relevant State Departments and mining companies alike are consequently dependant on third parties to prepare closure cost estimates.

Texto completoIn this thesis, the vicinity of the scientific borehole COSC-1 (Collisional Orogeny in the Scandinavian Caledonides) is investigated by the combination of a borehole seismic survey with downhole logging data and a surface seismic survey. The borehole seismic data show a significantly higher reflectivity and seismic anisotropy within the drilled geological unit, the Seve Nappe. This nappe is characterised by frequent changes of mafic and felsic lithologies that are also highlighted by a cluster analysis. The results of the cluster analysis correlate well with structures of the subsurface as imaged by the surface seismic survey and with seismic velocities. Additionally, the virtual source method as example for seismic interferometry is applied to a data subset. This approach created a virtual survey geometry with seismic sources and receivers within the borehole and a good data quality.
