Environmental regulation as a determinant of trade: an empirical investigation of the "Pollution Haven Hypothesis" in the context of international trade by Ellis Brown, Rupert

“…This paper applies an augmented version of the Heckscher-Ohlin-Vanek model to a broad cross section of countries for the period 2001 to 2011, providing evidence that a country's environmental regulatory regime has an influence on the energy content of trade. …”

Estimating the marginal value of agricultural irrigation water: A methodology and empirical application to the Berg River Catchment by Muller, Jacob

“…The model is then used to econometrically estimate the marginal value of commercial irrigation water in the Berg Water Management Area (WMA), using a Translog functional form, Tobit censored regression model, including controls for heterogeneity, and accounting for heteroscedasticity. …”

Influence of symmetry on the stability behaviour of plane and space frames by Kaluba, Chisanga

“…The analytical results were used to validate the finite element models developed in Abaqus. The finite element models were then used to carry out more detailed studies on the influence of symmetry on the stability behaviour of plane frames. …”

Classical, quantum and numerical aspects of modified theories of gravity by Beckering Vinckers, Ulrich Karoo

“…Lastly, we consider the application of numerical relativity techniques to f(R) gravity models. It is well-known that the Baumgarte-Shapiro-Shibata-Nakamura (BSSN) modification of the Arnowitt-Deser-Misner formulation of General Relativity is suitable for the construction of numerical relativity codes. …”
