Generally, high oil prices slow economic growth, cause inflationary pressures and creates global imbalances. In addition, oil price volatility increase uncertainty and restrain the much-needed investment in the capital market. Thus, this paper applies the Augmented Dickey Fuller and Johansen Co-integration Tests in which the effect of oil price volatility, crude oil price and stock price is ana...

This essay, written by a statistician and a climate scientist, describes our view of the gap that exists between current practice in mainstream climate science, and the practical needs of policymakers charged with exploring possible interventions in the context of climate change. By ‘mainstream’ we mean the type of climate science that dominates in universities and research centres, which we wi...

In integrated assessments of climate change, greenhouse-gas emissions and climate change impacts provide the linkages between the world economy and the climate system. Key climatic processes operate at the scales of centuries. This requires highly aggregated models for portraying the dynamics of the economic system. An extended Ramsey-type optimal growth model is presented as the appropriate to...

Abstract The Investment Casting (IC) process is a type of casting that can produce the suitable shape and size components by minimizing porosity defects. However, research on ICs for manufacture artificial hip joints made from Ti6Al4V still lacking. Therefore, purpose this study to determine mechanical properties an joint casted using investment method. stages used in are wax injection, ejectio...

This paper examines how investment in intellectual capital (IC) elements by textile and apparel companies improves firm performance measured terms of profitability, market value, productivity. The modified value-added coefficient (MVAIC) model is applied to measure IC. Using a panel 35 Chinese for six-year period (2013–2018), the results show that physical human capitals are strong factors cont...
