Much of the development low elevation coastal zone has involved reclamation low-lying floodplains and wetlands through construction flood mitigation drainage systems. These systems function throughout tidal range, protecting from high tides while draining excess catchment flows to tide. However, can only be achieved under gravity when water levels in drains are higher than those estuary. Change...

In this paper, we consider discrete-time partially observed mean-field games with the risk-sensitive optimality criterion. We introduce risk-sensitivity behavior for each agent via an exponential utility function. game model, is weakly coupled rest of population through its individual cost and state dynamics empirical distribution states. establish equilibrium in infinite-population limit using...

Objective: It is believed that drivers play a crucial role in accidents. Paying attention to brake lights, a driver may find out about danger and react. Rear-end collision accidents refer to the part of the accidents due to driver inattention or slow reaction. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of dynamic flashing brake lights (7 Hz) on drivers' brake reaction time using the driv...

this paper shows how game theory can be applied to modeling the interaction between government and manufacturer in implementation of cleaner production. a generic game model based upon ‘two-person non-cooperative’ static game is created to allow various strategic actions being tested by stages, and aid decision making by selecting optimal strategy for both manufacturer and policy maker to reduc...

We examine the game theoretic properties of a model of crime first introduced by Short, Brantingham, and D’Orsogna (Short et al. 2010) as the SBD Adversarial Game. We identify the rationalizable strategies and one-shot equilibria under multiple equilibrium refinements. We further show that SBD’s main result about the effectiveness of defecting-punishers in driving the system to evolve to the co...

A dynamic triopoly game characterized by firms with different expectations is modeled by threedimensional nonlinear difference equations, where the market has quadratic inverse demand function and the firm possesses cubic total cost function. The local stability of Nash equilibrium is studied. Numerical simulations are presented to show that the triopoly game model behaves chaotically with the ...

The analysis of import tariffs on natural resource has been undertaken on the establishment of two modeling approaches for both nonrenewable resources and renewable resources. However, it is too hard to find the literature that analyzed the optimal tariffs on timber trade by modeling the biological characteristics of forest explicitly. This paper, hence, is designed to examine the dynamic struc...

Empirical literature consistently challenges the rationality assumption of individuals’ behaviour in dynamic situations and in teamwork environments. Here I examine rational forward-looking behaviour in a dynamic team competition with multi-period “battles”. Using field data from professional squash team tournaments (820 matches), I provide evidence consistent with the game-theoretical predicti...
