A balanced economic development is essentially based on self-financing of investment cycle. The efficient use of energy resources and raw materials could rise by increasing the renewal of fixed capital, which is meaning also a shift to a higher technological level. From this correlation is...

In this paper we proposed a model deriving from physics laws, which are associated to the investments impact upon the economic system potential. Defining several physics fundamental dimensions and starting from a series of assumptions, we tried to find their possible economic meaning and...

Amid the controversies around the optimisation criteria and the objective functions when applying mathematical methods in economics, we proposed a method of quantifying a multi-criteria optimum, called critical distance method. The demonstration of this method is exemplified by assessing the...

One of the roots of the current global imbalances resides in the asymmetry of the international trade flows under the constraints of maintaining non-tariff barriers and of protectionism revival. Trade liberalization is critical for restoring the financial global equilibrium. The study is...
