Globally, as much as demand as supply of wine has undergone an important transformation. Consumption has diminished notably while supply increases incessantly, giving rise to an imbalance that could bring about a crisis in the sector.

Tastes and Technology: Curvature Is Not Sufficient for Regularity

July 2004 · Contributions to Economic Analysis

William Barnett

In specifications of tastes and technology, econometricians often impose curvature globally, but monotonicity only locally or not at all. In fact monotonicity rarely is even mentioned in that literature. But without satisfaction of both curvature and monotonicity, the second-order conditions for optimizing behavior fail, and duality theory fails. The resulting first-order conditions, demand ... [Show full abstract] functions, and supply functions become invalid. Although unconstrained specifications of technology are more likely to produce violations of curvature than monotonicity, I believe that induced violations of monotonicity become common, when curvature alone is imposed. Hence the current common practice of equating regularity with curvature is not justified.

Determination of Global Efficiencies of Variable Speed Pumps within Water Supply Systems

December 2018 · Ovidius University Annals of Constanta - Series Civil Engineering

The energy transformations involved in the operation of the pumping installations are carried out by pumping aggregates consisting of an electric motor and a pump. In order to provide a full adaptation to the users’ variable demands, variable speed motor driven pumps are used on networks (such motors being equipped with frequency converters). The paper presents a method for determining the global ... [Show full abstract] efficiency of a frequency converter-asynchronous motor-pump group. The method has been implemented at the Chiriţa Pumping Station, main facility within the Iasi City water supply system.
