In this study, we undertake some hypothetical experiments and predict the environmental effects of some changes in consumer behavior, using the Japanese Input-Output Table and the Family Income and Expenditure Survey for 2000. We estimate the demand function in a linear expenditure system (LES)...

Several different species of ions, Au, Fe, Ag, Ti and Si, were implanted into austenite stainless steel sheets at an energy of 3 MeV respectively. The martensite transformation induced with the ion implantation was investigated with transmission electron microscopy equipped with an energy...

In this study, we conducted a choice experiment for estimating the marginal willingness to pay for the different attributes of the small-scale water reservoirs, known as Tameikes, which are prevalent throughout Japan’s inhabitable rural areas. By using Internet surveys, we collected unlabeled...

This paper describes a nonsurvey method for estimating multiregional trades without eliminating cross-hauling, when a national biregional input–output table is available. Domestic outflows are assigned by interpolating the biregional trades on the basis of the gravity ratio between the origin...

We estimate the welfare gain from innovations in the LCD TVs that prevailed during the period 2005–2007 in Japan, via consumer surplus that we measure with the aid of discrete choice methods, using market data obtained from an internet price comparison service (Kakaku.com). Further, by the...

The Protocol and the Agreement on Social Policy annexed to the Treaty on European Union (the so-called ‘social protocol’) stipulated the procedural rules of the European system of industrial relations about twenty years ago. It has been pointed out, however, that the procedure has such...

For developing countries that consume coal as their primary energy source, the method of desulfurization is a major issue. We installed experimental biocoal briquette production machines as a simple, inexpensive technology for desulfurization in China. Biocoal briquettes are a high-pressured...
