L ow tax incomes and the large size of the government in Iran lead into budget deficit, which increases the inflation rate. It also causes economic instability and fluctuations in inflation, leading to tax non-compliance and the transfer of people to the informal economy. Therefore, considering the variables of financial discipline and behavioral factors, this research examines the e...

data envelopment analysis (dea) with considering the best condition for each decision making unit (dmu) assesses the relative efficiency for it and divides a homogenous group of dmus in to two categories: efficient and inefficient, but traditional dea models can not rank efficient dmus. although some models were introduced for ranking efficient dmus, franklin lio & hsuan peng (2008), proposed a...

in a general classification, the economy of any country is divided into two parts of official and invisible economies. invisible activities drop outside the scope of the law and official economy and strongly affect socioeconomic development and the formal sector of all countries.these activities which are known under various titles including the shadow economy are influenced by various factors....

In this paper, we present a new method for creating shadow texture atlas with which we can represent the self-shadow. Shadow texture atlas is a texture atlas with shadow information in each texel. Shadow texture is effective to represent high-quality shadow using the graphics hardware because it stores shadow information as color unlike shadow map which stores depth. However, it cannot represen...

Large offshore wind farms are recently emerging as promising alternative power Sources. Long distances between offshore generation and onshore distribution grid demand new solutions for their connect alternative to conventional AC transmission above a certain cable length. This paper presents a new VSC transmission topology for HVDC grid connection of offshore wind farms.
