We estimate a dynamic structural model of sales force response to a bonus based compensation plan. The paper has two main methodological innovations: First, we implement empirically the method proposed by Arcidiacono and Miller (2011) to accommodate unobserved latent class heterogeneity with a computationally light two-step estimator. Second, we estimate discount factors in a dynamic structural...

this article is concerned with the static analysis of structural cables used in railway overheads. structural analysis computer program named ansys is used for analysis. two effects are considered in the analysis. first one is the bending behavior effect of cables. beam188 in addition to link10 and link180 is used to see the difference in case of additional bending effect. besides, link10 and l...
