In contrast to prior disaggregated product level studies on tariff evasion which have focused on select country pairs, we develop a model that allows us to consistently estimate average tariff evasion effects on aggregate bilateral trade data. This has two distinct advantages over prior work. We are able to obtain a more general test for average tariff evasion effects across a large number of c...

Indian power system is now a national grid with 156GW of grid capacity and approximately 19.5GW of captive generation. It has passed the horrible operation phase of last decade of the twentieth century. Though the growth rate of capacity is still trying to chase the growth rate of the load since very long but the operation and control of the system has became smooth. The obvious credit goes to ...

This paper: discusses methodological issues associated with estimating revenue impacts; provides impact estimates for a sample of developing countries; links the differences in impacts to cross-country differences ...

The realization of the second-order universal (low-pass, band-pass, high-pass, band-reject, and all-pass) active current filter using a single second-generation current controlled conveyor (CCCII), two grounded capacitors, and one resistor is proposed in this paper. Three input signals and the bias current of the active element determine the filtering type of the output signals. H-Spice simulat...
