ABSTRACT URBAN TRANSPORTATION PLANNING IN LOW-INCOME AREASt& --A Case Study of Appropriate Transportation Technology-- by BYUNGHO OH Submitted to the Department of Urban Studies and Planning on January 29, 1980 in partial fulfillment of the require- ments for the degree of.Doctor of Philosophy. There is tremendous worldwide need for adequate techniques to provide infrastructure, particularly transportation systems, in the rapidly growing urban areas. In both developed and developing countries, urban communities are growing much faster than urban services and the capability of institu- tions responsible for their support. -
Evaluating the Effect of US Domestic Content Requirements
Cross-Border Markets: Evaluating the Effect of U.S. Domestic Content Requirements on the U.S.-Canada Economic Partnership WSHDC-RFP-004 September 15, 2017 Submitted by The Trade Partnership 1701 K Street, NW Suite 575 Washington, DC 20006 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This study examines the effeCt of U.S. domestiC Content requirements on the U.S.-Canada eConomiC partnership. We examine the impaCts by ConduCting in-depth interviews with offiCials at Companies with signifiCant Cross-border trade where domestiC Content requirements do (e.g., Buy America or Buy AmeriCan rules) or Could (e.g., proposed rule requiring U.S. steel in pipelines) shape supply chains. We also spoke to U.S. government agenCies whose proCurement is subjeCt to suCh rules. We found: U.S. domestic content requirements can impact U.S. companies by limiting sourcing options and increasing product costs, both of which negatively impact U.S. jobs and competitiveness. • Buy AmeriCa requirements Can prevent Companies from purChasing some inputs from preferred suppliers, even if few alternative U.S. suppliers exist. • Many U.S. manufaCturing jobs exist in spite, not beCause, of domestiC Content requirements. • DomestiC Content requirements Can Create additional ComplianCe Costs for Companies selling similar produCts to both CommerCial and federally funded projeCts. • Taking additional steps to Comply with domestiC Content requirements Can inCrease the priCe of goods signifiCantly without leading to a similar increase in U.S. jobs. Proposed domestic content changes that could prevent companies from sourcing from Canada would disrupt existing supply chains and harm many U.S. businesses, particularly in the short term. -
Automobile Industry in India 30 Automobile Industry in India
Automobile industry in India 30 Automobile industry in India The Indian Automobile industry is the seventh largest in the world with an annual production of over 2.6 million units in 2009.[1] In 2009, India emerged as Asia's fourth largest exporter of automobiles, behind Japan, South Korea and Thailand.[2] By 2050, the country is expected to top the world in car volumes with approximately 611 million vehicles on the nation's roads.[3] History Following economic liberalization in India in 1991, the Indian A concept vehicle by Tata Motors. automotive industry has demonstrated sustained growth as a result of increased competitiveness and relaxed restrictions. Several Indian automobile manufacturers such as Tata Motors, Maruti Suzuki and Mahindra and Mahindra, expanded their domestic and international operations. India's robust economic growth led to the further expansion of its domestic automobile market which attracted significant India-specific investment by multinational automobile manufacturers.[4] In February 2009, monthly sales of passenger cars in India exceeded 100,000 units.[5] Embryonic automotive industry emerged in India in the 1940s. Following the independence, in 1947, the Government of India and the private sector launched efforts to create an automotive component manufacturing industry to supply to the automobile industry. However, the growth was relatively slow in the 1950s and 1960s due to nationalisation and the license raj which hampered the Indian private sector. After 1970, the automotive industry started to grow, but the growth was mainly driven by tractors, commercial vehicles and scooters. Cars were still a major luxury. Japanese manufacturers entered the Indian market ultimately leading to the establishment of Maruti Udyog. -

Catalytically Generating and Utilizing Hydrogen to Reduce Nox Emissions in Automobile Applications
Catalytically Generating and Utilizing Hydrogen to Reduce NOx Emissions in Automobile Applications Thesis by Nawaf Mohammed Alghamdi In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of Master of Science King Abdullah University of Science and Technology Thuwal, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia November, 2018 2 EXAMINATION COMMITTEE PAGE The thesis of Nawaf Mohammed Alghamdi is approved by the examination committee. Committee Chairperson: Professor Mani Sarathy Committee Members: Professor Jorge Gascon and Professor Aamir Farooq 3 © November, 2018 Nawaf Mohammed Alghamdi All Rights Reserved 4 ABSTRACT Catalytically Generating and Utilizing Hydrogen to Reduce NOx Emissions in Automobile Applications Nawaf Mohammed Alghamdi Heterogeneous catalysis is a powerful chemical technology because it can enhance the conversion of reactants, promote selectivity to a desired product, and lower the reaction temperature requirements. The breaking and forming of chemical bonds in heterogeneous catalysis is facilitated on a solid surface where adsorbed gas-phase species react and form products. This study is concerned with utilizing heterogeneous catalysis in the automobile industry via the generation and utilization of hydrogen to reduce NOx emissions. In spark ignition engines, the three-way-catalyst technology is ineffective at the more efficient, lean-burn conditions. In compression-ignition engines, an ammonia-based technology is implemented but has associated high cost and ammonia slip challenges. This motivates providing an alternative technology, such as hydrogen selective catalytic reduction (H2- SCR). In this study, four catalysts were investigated for the lean-burn selective catalytic reduction of NO using hydrogen. The catalysts were platinum (Pt) and palladium (Pd) noble metals supported on cerium oxide (CeO2) and magnesium oxide (MgO). -

Within about one generation, Korea transformed itself from an aid-recipient basket-case to a donor country with fast-paced, sustained economic growth. What makes Korea’s experience even more remarkable is that the fruits of Korea’s rapid growth were relatively widely shared. -

Car Wars 2020-2023 the Rise (And Fall) of the Crossover?
The US Automotive Product Pipeline Car Wars 2020-2023 The Rise (and Fall) of the Crossover? Equity | 10 May 2019 Car Wars thesis and investment relevance Car Wars is an annual proprietary study that assesses the relative strength of each automaker’s product pipeline in the US. The purpose is to quantify industry product trends, and then relate our findings to investment decisions. Our thesis is fairly straightforward: we believe replacement rate drives showroom age, which drives market United States Autos/Car Manufacturers share, which drives profits and stock prices. OEMs with the highest replacement rate and youngest showroom age have generally gained share from model years 2004-19. John Murphy, CFA Research Analyst Ten key findings of our study MLPF&S +1 646 855 2025 1. Product activity remains reasonably robust across the industry, but the ramp into a [email protected] softening market will likely drive overcrowding and profit pressure. Aileen Smith Research Analyst 2. New vehicle introductions are 70% CUVs and Light Trucks, and just 24% Small and MLPF&S Mid/Large Cars. The material CUV overweight (45%) will likely pressure the +1 646 743 2007 [email protected] segment’s profitability to the low of passenger cars, and/or will leave dealers with a Yarden Amsalem dearth of entry level product to offer, further increasing an emphasis on used cars. Research Analyst MLPF&S 3. Product cadence overall continues to converge, making the market increasingly [email protected] competitive, which should drive incremental profit pressure across the value chain.
