A considerable problem in competitive trade world is choosing the best supply chain. As a result in much more serious circumstances of competitions looking for the best supplier for manufacturing, for preparing raw material, is very significant. Meantime suppliers have different scenarios to be fulfilled, such as changing selection variables like lead-time, transportation cost and transportatio...

Within the current EU pre-conceptual design activities, reference demonstrative fusion power plant concept relies on ITER-like, pulsed H-mode plasmas (“DEMO1”). Simultaneously, alternative options are being considered. An example is “Flexi-DEMO”, which designed for steady-state plasma discharges, but can also be run at same with auxiliary heating systems if confinement time turns out to not suf...

The following scenarios were developed in 1993, and apply the five economic systems, Blue, Red, Green, Yellow and Pink, developed by Prof. J. Galtung to the future of health care in Hawai'i. These five systems provide the internal logic with which we can develop and compare 5 macro scenarios or visions of health care and their impact on health care delivery and health status of Hawai'i resident...

This case study compares the cost of maintaining a proposed subsidy for New York’s three upstate nuclear power plants (Fitzpatrick, Nine Mile Point Unit 1, and Ginna) with the cost of replacing the plants with renewable technologies over the time period from 2016 to 2050. Three alternative renewable scenarios are compared with two nuclear scenarios in terms of overall system costs, which compri...
