These structures are generally located at shallow depth; therefore study of shallow tunnels in urban areas is critical for development. During the excavation of tunnels in urban areas, creating the asymmetric se...
This paper introduces the option to conduct discovery into a model of settlement bargaining and negative expected value (NEV) suits under asymmetric information. We find that the option to conduct discovery has important effects on the standard model of settlement under asymmetric information for several reasons.

Previous comparative analyses of gross and net settlement have focused on the credit risk of the central counterparty in net settlement arrangements, and on the incentives for participants to alter the risk of the portfolio under net settlement. By modeling the trading economy that generates the demand for payment services, we are able to show some largely unexplored advantages of net settlemen...
