12. Economic Effects of Megaprojects on Income Levels - Empirical Evidence from a Case Study of the Channel Tunnel and the United Kingdom
University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomiAbstract : Although the number of megaprojects implemented worldwide is increasing, there are still only a few significant international infrastructure megaprojects such as bridges or tunnels between countries. Due to cost explosions and overly optimistic forecasts for the use of bridges or tunnels, cost-benefit analyses often turn out to be negative. READ MORE

14. Low-Temperature Thermal Control System for an Environmental Chamber
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/RymdteknikAbstract : In spite of significant reduction of cost associated with launching a spacecraft, launching deep space exploratory missions are yet to be accessible to most universities and researchers. A solution to testing scientific hypotheses and verifying technologies for space is the use of environmental chambers, also know as space simulators, - vacuum chambers, which replicate the space environment.

15. The Relationship Between Vertical Integration and Risk. A Statistical Analysis of Changes in Vertical Integration within Industries Affected by the Global Semiconductor Shortage
University essay from Lunds universitet/Företagsekonomiska institutionenAbstract : Succeeding a brief discussion of what vertical integration (VI) is, its interaction with risk and uncertainty, and the context of this study, namely the COVID-19 pandemic and its simultaneous semiconductor shortages, the purpose of this paper is outlined to fill a research gap regarding an empirically supported relationship between vertical integration and systemic risk. The aim and contribution here is subsequently twofold: to examine whether one can predict strategic trends and behavior among multinational companies when it comes to value chain ownership and control decisions in response to abnormal levels of systemic risk, and, to more generally statistically prove or disprove the seeming theoretical consensus that vertical integration can be a key risk-reduction strategy for various reasons, something that will be detailed and explored more closely in an extensive literature review.
