Historically, most energy models were reasonably equipped to assess the impact of classical policies, such as a subsidy or change in taxation. However, these tools are often insufficient to assess the impact of alternative policy instruments. We evalu- ate the so-called engineering economic models used to assess future industrial en- ergy use. Engineering economic models include the level of detail commonly needed to model the new types of policies considered. We explore approaches to improve the realism and policy relevance of engineering economic modeling frameworks. We also explore solutions to strengthen the policy usefulness of engineering eco- nomic analysis that can be built from a framework of multidisciplinary coopera- tion. The review discusses the main modeling approaches currently used and eval- uates the weaknesses in current models.

  • Engineering Economy for Economists
    AC 2008-2866: ENGINEERING ECONOMY FOR ECONOMISTS Peter Boerger, Engineering Economic Associates, LLC Peter Boerger is an independent consultant specializing in solving problems that incorporate both technological and economic aspects. He has worked and published for over 20 years on the interface between engineering, economics and public policy. His education began with an undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, adding a Master of Science degree in a program of Technology and Public Policy from Purdue University and a Ph.D. in Engineering Economics from the School of Industrial Engineering at Purdue University. His firm, Engineering Economic Associates, is located in Indianapolis, IN. Page 13.503.1 Page © American Society for Engineering Education, 2008 Engineering Economy for Economists 1. Abstract The purpose of engineering economics is generally accepted to be helping engineers (and others) to make decisions regarding capital investment decisions. A less recognized but potentially fruitful purpose is to help economists better understand the workings of the economy by providing an engineering (as opposed to econometric) view of the underlying workings of the economy. This paper provides a review of some literature related to this topic and some thoughts on moving forward in this area. 2. Introduction Engineering economy is inherently an interdisciplinary field, sitting, as the name implies, between engineering and some aspect of economics. One has only to look at the range of academic departments represented by contributors to The Engineering Economist to see the many fields with which engineering economy already relates. As with other interdisciplinary fields, engineering economy has the promise of huge advancements and the risk of not having a well-defined “home base”—the risk of losing resources during hard times in competition with other academic departments/specialties within the same department.

  • Economics and Engineering” Pedro Garcia Duarte and Yann Giraud
    Introduction: From “Economics as Engineering” to “Economics and Engineering” Pedro Garcia Duarte and Yann Giraud The Transformation of Economics into an Engineering Science: From Analogies to Interactions In recent years, economists, who in the past had mostly insisted on their discipline’s strength as a rigorous social science, have turned to its larger role in transforming society. As early as 2002, Alvin Roth, the Stan- ford-educated economist who received the Nobel memorial prize in 2012, has claimed that members of his community should think of themselves as engineers rather than scientists. By this he meant that they should not be interested solely in the making of theoretical models but also in con- fronting these models with the complexities of real-life situations, which is what engineering is allegedly about. He pointed to the rise of the new sub eld of market design, which he had helped develop, as characteristic of an engineer’s stance and provided several examples of engineering practices applied to economics: the design of labor clearinghouses—such as the entry-level labor market for American physicians—and that of the Federal Communications Commission spectrum auctions (Roth 2002). We want to thank the Center for the History of Political Economy and Duke University Press for their support, as well as the many referees who helped us during the editorial process. Yann Giraud wishes to point out that his research has been supported by the project Labex MME-DII (ANR11–LBX-0023–01). Pedro Duarte acknowledges the nancial support of the Institute for Advanced Studies, at the Université de Cergy-Pontoise, for visiting professorships (2016, 2018) that were critical for the shaping of this joint project.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

  • Engineering Economics and the Law
    Session 1339 Engineering Economics and the Law J. Timothy Cromley BANK ONE CORPORATION Abstract Patent and Trade Secret Law is an area of the Law that is very important to engineering and the economy, but it is not among the topics prominently covered (if at all) in a typical course in Engineering Economy (or “Engineering Economics”). To help remedy this apparent deficiency in course coverage, the author presents: a rationale for inclusion of this topic in such a course, an overview of patent and trade secret law, classroom suggestions, and steps for valuing a patent. 1. Why Patent & Trade Secret Law is an Apt Topic for Courses in Engineering Economics It is widely recognized that relationships exist between law and economics . The University of Chicago, for example, has had a Journal of Law and Economics since 1958. 1 The Encyclopedia of Law and Economics , which is published in the Netherlands, has two Nobel Laureates in Economics on its Editorial Board. 2 Because important relationships exist between law and economics , it is appropriate to inquire: What area(s) of the law (if any) are most relevant to a course in engineering economics? Environmental law might be a candidate, as it is relevant to environmental engineers, but it is too specialized to be of general interest in a course on engineering economics. Contract law is a possibility, but its appeal is too broad to properly fit into a focused course like engineering economics. Many other areas of the law are not good fits for similar reasons. Patent law and product liability law are good candidates, but as between these two areas of law, patent law is more highly relevant to both engineering and economics because of its unique links to both technology and monopoly .
