The economics of project analysis: Optimal investment criteria and methods of study

Insight is provided toward the development of an optimal program for investment analysis of project proposals offering commercial potential and its components. This involves a critique of economic investment criteria viewed in relation to requirements of engineering economy analysis. An outline for a systems approach to project analysis is given Application of the Leontief input-output methodology to analysis of projects involving multiple processes and products is investigated. Effective application of elements of neoclassical economic theory to investment analysis of project components is demonstrated. Patterns of both static and dynamic activity levels are incorporated.

Speculative-theoretical Modeling of the Atmosphere Enveloping a Hypothetical (closed, Thermal) Star

The predictions of theoretical stellar atmospheric structural modeling and the theoretical picture of the local stellar environment as derived from the speculation that stars are (closed, thermal) thermodynamic systems, are summarized. The definition and representation of space- and state-fluxes is discussed and both classical (local thermodynamic equilibrium) and neoclassical (non-local thermodynamic equilibrium) thermal models are addressed.
