▼ "Why are there so many kinds of organizations?" (Hannan and Freeman, 1977: 936). As Astley (1985) suggests, "[t]his question focuses inquiry on organizational diversity, the differentiation of organizations into varying population types" (p. 224). Out of the different literature streams, which have addressed the topic of organizational diversity, an effective explanation of the dynamics related to this organizational phenomenon has been provided by Resource Partitioning theory (Carroll, 1985), which has attempted to explain the coexistence of patterns of concentration and specialization within the same industrial setting. Despite the extensive empirical evidence supporting Resource Partitioning theory (see Carroll, Dobrev and Swaminathan, 2002 for a review), an effective and thorough explanation and specification of the causal mechanisms underlying the operation of this industrial segregating process has not yet been effectively advanced. (Carroll and Hannan, 2000; Carroll, et al., 2002). This theory leaves apart many important questions about the emergence, the evolution and the persistence of instances of organizational diversity in given industries. In general, the theory does not specify what a generalist and a specialist organization are. To answer this question, this dissertation aims at complementing industry-level explanations of organizational diversity put forward by resource partitioning theory with an analysis of the internal processes featuring generalist and specialist firms' practices, within the industrial setting of Professional Service Firms (PSFs). This particular context was chosen because PSFs frequently operate in a competitive environment in which "[t]he large, multinational accounting firms coexist with very small, local auditing firms, and both may be highly profitable simultaneously" (Løwendahl, 2005: 127). To attain this task, I rely upon the development of a dynamic simulation model. Advisors/Committee Members: Alessandro (Dir.), Erik Raimer (Codir.).

▼ The ability to develop physically consistent lumped-parameter models of compressible flow systems is a relevant and important aspect of designing control strategies for energy conversion systems. Such models can lead to a better system-level understanding of internal combustion engines, turbomachinery, fuel cell systems, Heat Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) and refrigeration systems. Furthermore, the models may be used for control systems development, optimization and validation leading to better performance and lower development costs. While improvements in computing technology have made it possible to use Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) simulations in a wide range of applications, 3-D and 1-D codes are not immediately useful in the design of control algorithms due to their complexity and high computational cost. However, the prediction of unsteady phenomena, particularly the characterization of pressure, temperature, velocity and flow rate at different locations of the system, is critical for several applications, ranging from design, and optimization, to control and diagnostics. The focus of the current research is to fill the void between the high-fidelity numerical simulation models originating from partial differential equations, and low-fidelity, control-oriented empirical models based on lumped parameter approximations such as are used today in industrial applications. The outcome of the research includes two novel approaches for modeling compressible fluid systems for dynamic systems applications. The two methodologies have been developed to retain a high level of fidelity while preserving the simple structure and limited computation time of lumped-parameter models. The two approaches have been validated against a combination of experimental, analytical and high fidelity simulation results. The results validate that the two modeling techniques enable accurate, computationally efficient models suitable for control systems applications. Advisors/Committee Members: Rizzoni, Giorgio (Advisor).

▼ The purpose of this research aims to (1) construct the predict model by system dynamics on the outpatient visits; (2) investigate the influence on hospital performance after drug price policies made; and (3) offer feasible schemes by scenario simulation. National Health Insurance (NHI) system intends to safeguard the right to health care for all residents in Taiwan. NHI system has gained high public satisfaction so far. However, medical expenditures and pharmaceutical costs have propelled the rapid growth in recent years because of the stipulation of the insurance premium rate, the general push for improved health care quality, and inclusion of new drugs as well as new technologies. To prevent the deficit of the NHI systemâs finances from widening further, the Bureau of NHI is urged to reform the reimbursement policies, including Adjustments of Drug List and Payment Scheme, Global Budget Payment System, and Adjust Reasonably Reimbursement Criteria as well. Based on the statistics, a quarter of the total revenues were for the drug cost. Legally mandated drug price adjustments have a great influence on the financial burden of the medical institutions. On the basis of the simulation analysis, the major findings of this research are summarized as follows: (1) The adjustments of the prescription depend on the amount of the profit gained from the drugs; (2) The increase the refillable prescriptions for patients with chronic illnesses enhances the profit of the drugs; (3) With the implementation of the system dynamics, the counterintuitive phenomenon can be identified and used to guide the future policies of the medical institutions. This research also suggests that the total comprehension of finding the leader loop in the dynamic complexity system within the management of the medical institutions is beneficial in providing the relative adjustment policies for a hospital.

▼ Since the 2000s oil prices have become increasingly volatile, with exceptionally large price movements since 2007. A high price period in between 2010 and 2014 fostered rapid growth of unconventional oil, in particular of tight oil in the USA. Since 2014 crude oil prices have dropped significantly again, and remained low up to at least 2016 (i.e. up to this report). The TIMER model developed by PBL does not reflect this volatility, instead it assumes continued low prices, just above marginal costs of production. This report investigates the mismatch between historic oil price dynamics since 2007, which is the latest year up to which TIMER is calibrated and the TIMER model. Through a literature study and semi-structured interviews insight is sought into which factors within TIMER are missing or which ones could be improved. From this list a number of key factors are selected, from which a system dynamic model is built to assess their impact. The identified factors resulted in the development of a model that assesses the following two factors: 1. The effects of increasing costs of discoveries and production of conventional oil, and; 2. The effects of rapid growth of unconventional oil and decreased price elasticity of demand on the price of oil. Depletion in discoveries are expressed as an effort per yield function, derived from historical data. This shows that over time marginal discoveries increase in cost exponentially. Likewise decline in existing field production requires a growing amount of capital stock to meet demanded supply quantities. Price elasticity of demand is observed to decline over time, which is expressed using exponential decay. The influx of multiple types of unconventional oil is entered exogenously in the model, as is oil demand. The cost of production and market price of oil are produced endogenously. The model is run from 1980 to 2020. Results from the model show that growing production and exploration costs form the main driver behind the high price of oil in the period between 2010 and 2014. The influx of unconventional oil coupled with reduced price elasticity of demand resulted in the subsequent price crash. By using marginal costs of exploration and production as described in this thesis, TIMER is able to shift away from using long term cost-supply curves to determine future costs of oil production. Long term cost-supply curves contain significant uncertainties as they are sensitive to variations in estimated future reserve additions. Advisors/Committee Members: Crijns-Graus, W..

▼ This thesis aims to provide the state of the art "nature-inspired computing" (NIC) approaches and investigate their applications in system dynamics (SD) models. Specifically, we will focus on particle swarm optimisation (PSO), genetic algorithms (GAs) and cooperative coevolutionary approaches (CCEAs), and their application in the beer distribution game (BDG). Three pieces of work have been conducted in this thesis. Firstly, we focus on improving the performance of PSO. PSO is an intelligent random search algorithm, and the key to its success is to effectively balance between the exploration and the exploitation of the solution space. This thesis presents a new dynamic topology called "gradually increasing directed neighbourhoods (GIDN)". Each particle begins with a small number of connections and there are many small isolated swarms that improve the exploration ability. At each iteration, we gradually add a number of new connections between particles which improves the ability of exploitation. A series of experiments show that the PSO with GIDN performs much better than a number of the state of the art algorithms. Secondly, we are concerned with the applications of the PSO approaches to the BDG. The BDG offers a complex simulation environment involving multidimensional constrained pa- rameters. In order to obtain the optimal strategies for the BDG, we proposed the use of our PSO with GIDN. A number of the state of the art PSO algorithms and GAs have also been used as benchmarks. Two scenarios for the BDG are examined. In one scenario, all sectors use the same inventory management strategies while, in the other one, each sector has differ- ent strategies. The optimal strategies and their performance for both scenarios are examined. Furthermore, our PSO's performance is also investigated. Finally, we investigate the applications of CCEAs to the BDG. CCEAs are a flexible multi- population based framework. Each population can evolve independently and have their own goals. We have developed a coevolutionary framework for evolving strategies across this four- tier BDG. Our results identify the effects of two different management strategies on the supply chain performance. The first is where sectors are individually oriented, and the second is where sectors cooperate to achieve a common goal and are group oriented. We design two fitness approaches to reflect both management strategies. We have used this framework to identify the impact of these two strategies on the supply chain performance. Furthermore, two different demand patterns: a step input and uniformly distributed demand are also examined. A series of managerial insights have been derived from our extensive simulations.

▼ The brain orchestrates perceptions, thoughts, and actions through the ensemble spiking activity of its neurons. Biological processes underlying spike transformations across brain regions, including synaptic transmissions, dendritic integrations, and spike generations, are highly nonlinear dynamical processes and are often nonstationary. For example, it is well established that certain forms of plasticity, such as long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD), occur in response to specific input patterns, and plasticity is manifested as a change in input-output function that can be viewed as a system nonstationarity. Quantitative studies of how such functions of information transmission across brain regions evolve during behavior are required in order to understand the brain. In this project, we developed a nonstationary modeling framework for the multiple-spike activity propagations between brain regions. ❧ In this study, in order to analyze the nonlinear dynamics underlying spike train transformations, a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) model was built using a generalized Laguerre-Volterra kernel method. Using the proposed structure, we have identified hippocampal CA3-CA1 spike train transformations in well-trained animals to perform delayed-nonmatch-to-sample (DNMS) task. The models we have developed can stochastically predict CA1 output spike trains based on CA3 input spike trains. In collaboration with Professor Sam Deadwyler’s group at Wake Forest University, I have also integrated a software program I authored to implement our proposed algorithm into the hardware setup there for real-time stimulations. In this first step toward modeling the hippocampus, the experimental data collected are from well-trained animals who achieved asymptotic performance. That is, they performed the behavioral task nearly identically each time so the underlying input-output transformations are nearly stationary. This indicates that we can apply one time-invariant model to describe CA3-CA1 nonlinear dynamics. In the second step of hippocampus modeling, we try to identify, in the learning animals, the hippocampal CA3-CA1 in which the neural activities are expected to change over time, and so as the kernels describing the input-output dynamics. We seek to identify such time-varying properties of hippocampal nonlinear dynamics by extending our model to be non-stationary using adaptive signal processing techniques. ❧ A stochastic state point-process adaptive filter was used to track the temporal evolutions of both feedforward and feedback kernels. With the predicted firing probability based on the model coefficients estimated from the previous time step and the actual output spike train currently observed, the coefficient covariance matrix is first estimated at each time step. The covariance matrix then acts as the learning rate for the coefficient estimations. This means that the learning rate is proportional to the prediction variance. The speed of the coefficient updates increases as the estimated variance… Advisors/Committee Members: Berger, Theodore W. (Committee Chair), Song, Dong (Committee Member), Marmarelis, Vasilis Z.

▼ Oil sands mining results in significant disturbances to natural ecosystems when soil and overburden materials are removed and stockpiled to provide access to mined materials. The mining process must be followed by land reclamation, whereby disturbed landscapes are recovered with the intent to replicate the performance of natural watersheds. Modeling hydrological processes in reclaimed landscapes is essential to assess the hydrological performance of the reclamation strategies as well as their evolution over time, and requires a reliable and continuous source of input data. In pursuit of simulating the various hydrological processes, such as soil moisture and actual evapotranspiration, a lumped generic system dynamics watershed (GSDW) model has been developed. The validity of the proposed model has been assessed in terms of its capacity to reproduce the hydrological behaviour of both reconstructed and natural watersheds. Data availability is a major challenge that constrains not only the type of models used but also their predictive ability and accuracy. This study evaluates the utility of precipitation and temperature data from the North American Regional Reanalysis (NARR) versus conventional platform data (e.g., meteorological station) for the hydrological modeling. Results indicate NARR data is a suitable alternative to local weather station data for simulating soil moisture patterns and evapotranspiration fluxes despite the high complexity involved in simulating such processes. Initially, the calibrated GSDW model was used along with available historical meteorological records, from both Environment Canada and NARR, to estimate the maximum soil moisture deficit and annual evapotranspiration fluxes. A probabilistic framework was adopted, and frequency curves of the maximum annual moisture deficit values were consequently constructed and used to assess the probability that various reconstructed and natural watersheds would provide the desired moisture demands. The study shows a tendency for the reconstructed watersheds to provide less moisture for evapotranspiration than natural systems. The probabilistic framework could be implemented to integrate information gained from mature natural watersheds (e.g., the natural system canopy) and transfer the results to newly reconstructed systems. Finally, this study provided some insight into the sensitivity of soil moisture patterns and evapotranspiration to possible changes in the projected precipitation and air temperature in the 21st century. Climate scenarios were generated using daily, statistically downscaled precipitation and air temperature outputs from global climate models (CGCM3), under A2 and B1 emission scenarios, to simulate the corresponding soil moisture and evapotranspiration using the GSDW model. Study results suggest a decrease in the maximum annual moisture deficit will occur due to the expected increase in annual precipitation and air temperature patterns, whereas actual evapotranspiration and runoff are more likely to increase.

▼ The Hardwood Industry in United States has been challenged by low-cost competition from overseas. Although cost reduction strategies have had minimal success, the proximity of industry to the domestic market has large implications on a more customer-focused strategy. The problem arises that individual companies and supply chains evolved based on the principles of economies of size and not on the flexibility to adapt to customer needs and changing resource constraints. An increased rate at which material and information flows through the hardwood supply chains is the key to the industriesâ ability to be customer-focused. Information systems may offer benefits for the industry, but changes in material flow of a company or supply chain cannot necessarily be predicted when implementing information systems. It was hypothesized that by understanding the dynamics between information flow and material flow throughout the supply chain, performance improvement would be possible through more effective release and use of information. A case study analysis of a hardwood supply chain was utilized to identify the effect of increased information flow on the material flow of the supply chain. Value Stream Mapping was utilized to benchmark the current state of lead times of information flow and material flow. System Dynamics was utilized to understand the relationships between the information flow and the material flow. Finally, simulations were performed to identify the specific effects on material flow as increased information flow is released through different information strategies. The study showed that increased information flow between supply chain members increased material flow through the supply chain. For a case study supply chain, an increase in information flow, through advanced knowledge of customer demand by a supplier, was found to reduce the inventory buffers throughout the supply chain by up to 38 percent and increase the total material flow through the supply chain by 10 percent. In addition to the increased information flow caused by the advanced knowledge of demand (18 percent), information flow would increase (by an additional 7 percent) based on the reductions in buffer inventory within each company of the supply chain.

▼ Installed wind power world wide is increasing rapidly. The increase in wind power in the European electricity grid is expected to have its impact on the system behaviour. A European study, European Wind Integration Study (EWIS), was thus set up to study the impact of wind power. This thesis was carried out in parallel with EWIS and overlaps at some points. The impact of large scale wind power integration on transient stability in the Dutch grid was studied. For the simulations the Dutch part of the UCTE interconnected system load flow model was used. Speed controls and excitation controls were added to the thermal power plants, and at the interconnections equivalent generators were placed to represent the external grids. Nine connection points were defined and all installed wind power was aggregated in wind parks at those nine connection points. The distribution of wind power amongst turbine type and location was determined to get a realistic distribution. Several simulation cases were then taken into account, first a comparison was made between the dynamic grid behaviour of the year 2008 and the year 2015, when no changes in the current regulations regarding fault-ride-through capabilities are made, i.e. all wind power will be disconnected from the grid on a voltage drop below 0.8 p.u.. Secondly a comparison of the dynamic grid behaviour of 2008 and the year 2015 was made, with no wind included in this case. As a third case, different connection requirements were applied, so the wind turbines had to stay connected to the grid in case of a fault. These `new' regulations were applied to the 2015 grid situation. From the calculations it followed that the 2015 grid without wind power installed shows a less stable behaviour than the 2008 grid. In the 2008 situation a short circuit in the centre of the grid may cause the disconnection of up to 1258 MW of wind power. For the 2015 situation this can become over 5000 MW. A disconnection of such a large amount of wind power is leading to voltage oscillations and oscillations at interconnection power flows. These oscillations however damp out fast and do not increase in amplitude. The voltage recovery time increases enormously between these years. Applying new regulations, where all variable speed wind turbines will have to stay connected to the grid during a short circuit, reduces the oscillations. As can be concluded from the calculations, a rather stable grid situation is created. This is mainly caused by the fact that the external grids are not taken into account, but modelled as an equivalent. When a larger part of the surrounding UCTE grid will be implemented the results will be different and most probably show a less stable behaviour. This thesis also looked into the large differences in wind power penetration in Europe. Several countries have a leading position in installed wind power, whilst a country like the Netherlands stays behind. Governments in Germany and Spain are very supportive and show a stable position towards renewable energy. Furthermore social… Advisors/Committee Members: Kling, W.L., Hendriks, R.L., Kamp, L.M., Paap, G.C., Spaan, F.J.C.M..

▼ This research analyzes the effect of market differences between advanced and emerging economies on the diffusion of alternative vehicle platforms (AVPs). A system dynamics simulation model was built and used to explore this transition case. This model considers two generic regions resembling advanced and emerging economies, and three generic vehicle platforms: incumbent platform (gasoline vehicles), hybrid platform (hybrid-gasoline vehicles) and radical platform (electrical vehicles). In addition, the model considers the interaction of several feedback mechanisms (Social Learning, R&D, Learning by Doing, Network Externalities and Scale Economies); as well as technical factors of the vehicle platforms, consumers’ preferences and car manufacturers’ behaviour. The analysis of several simulation experiments shows that market differences between advanced and emerging economies can influence diffusion patterns of AVPs in three main ways: First, the difference between the income level of consumers of advanced and emerging economies creates a systematic delay in the diffusion of AVPs in emerging economies. As a result, hybrid-gasoline vehicles diffuse earlier in advanced economies than in emerging economies. The diffusion of hybrid-gasoline vehicles in the advanced economies enhances its diffusion in the emerging region due to a global reduction in their purchasing prices and due to their technical improvement. Second, the difference in speed of growth of each region’s vehicle market has the potential of creating a strong market niche for electrical vehicles in the emerging region. In advanced economies, electrical vehicles find strong barriers. On the one hand, consumers driving gasoline or hybrid-gasoline vehicles are more reluctant to adopt the unknown developing electrical vehicles. On the other hand, the growth of the vehicle market is expected to hardly grow. Thus, in advanced economies most vehicle sales are replacement sales. In the emerging region, the opposite occurs, the vehicle market grows steadily and high number of vehicle sales are from consumers that for the first time purchase a vehicle. First time vehicle buyers do not favour any particular vehicle, thus there are greater chances that they adopt AVPs if these meet their economic and proficiency criteria. As a result, electrical vehicles find a strong market niche in emerging economies, which can compensate for the stagnation of the vehicle market in advanced economies. However, how this market niche is exploited depends significantly on consumers’ preferences and consumers’ familiarity with AVPs. In this regard, if consumers only consider the vehicle’s purchasing price in their adoption decisions, the transition towards AVPs becomes less likely, especially in emerging economies. On the contrary, if consumers consider in a more balanced way all the attributes of a vehicle (e.g. purchasing price, cost of fuel, fuel efficiency and driving range), the transition towards electrical vehicles becomes more likely in both regions. In this case, emerging… Advisors/Committee Members: Yücel, G., Van Daalen, E..

▼ We present a new, fully ab initio approach for computing intramolecular charge and energy transfer rates. Using a time-convolutionless master-equation approach, parameterized with couplings obtained from an accurate quantum-chemical approach, we benchmark the approach against experimental results and predictions from Marcus theory for triplet energy transfer for a series of donor-bridge-acceptor systems. An important component of our analysis is the use of a projection operator scheme that parses out specific internal nuclear motions that accompany the electronic transition. Using an iterative Lanczos method, we concentrate the coupling between the electronic and nuclear degrees of freedom into a small number of reduced harmonic modes. We find that using only a single reduced mode – termed the "primary mode" or "Lanczos modes", one obtains an accurate evaluation of the golden-rule rate constant and insight into the nuclear motions responsible for coupling the initial and final electronic states. In particular, the irreducible representation of the primary mode reveals hidden details of the dynamics. For the cases considered here, the primary modes belong to totally symmetric irreducible representations of the donor and acceptor moieties. Upon investigating the molecular geometry changes following the transition, we propose that the electronic transition process can be broken into two steps, in the agreement of Born-Oppenheimer approximation: a fast excitation transfer occurs, facilitated by the "primary Lanczos mode" (PLM), followed by slow nuclear relaxation on the final electronic diabatic surface. We apply the method to a larger, "star" molecule, that has been experimentally shown that its exciton transfer pathway can be radically modified by mode-specific infrared excitation of its vibrational mode. The primary mode and rate constants we obtain generally agree with the experiments. Advisors/Committee Members: Bittner, Eric R.

▼ The issue of marine debris has been getting more attention around the world recently. The rapid growth of marine debris not only cause visual impact on landscape but also affect marine environment and ecology profoundly. Plastics are mostly found in marine debris worldwide, due to industrialization of plastic products production and easy disposal without careful management. Such âtake-make-disposeâ step plan of using plastic products is the traditional linear economy which impact marine environment. Nowadays, the new concept of circular economy, which is to reuse waste as raw material for new products, is emerging. To shift from linear economy to circular economy can avoid resource depleting and environmental impact. This study proposes a circular economy channel of managing marine debris such that plastic waste in marine environment are reusable and thus reduced. We conducted literature review and expert interviews to realize the characteristics of current plastic recycling and reuse system. In consequence, the feedback relations between key factors within such circular economy system are realized. Then, we applied the technique of system dynamics to model the circular economy of marine plastic debris recycling and reuse processes. The system dynamics model was integrated with the Monte-Carlo simulation and the decision tree analyses to identify the important policies of developing circular economy. The result indicates that the authority should enhance peopleâs environmental conscious, restrict plastic production, improve the efficiency of waste management, and encourage well design of green products. The implementation of these policy combination can therefore decrease marine debris and create profit for the involved stakeholders. In the long term, the vision of circular economy for dealing with the problem of marine plastic debris can be fulfilled.

▼ The dynamics behaviour of the entire rotating machinery is significantly affected by the foundation and an accurate modelling of the foundation can optimise the balancing and operating efficiency. In the complex and large rotating machinery, the removal of the rotor is usually difficult and costly so that the identification of foundation model has to be incorporated into the overall rotor bearing foundation system (RBFS). In this thesis the techniques are developed to identify the equivalent foundation of the rotating machinery in situ, which can substitute for the actual foundation and reproduce the equivalent vibration responses of the RBFS over the operating speed range. The vibration measurement data excited by the existing unbalance in the rotor are used to identify the modal parameters, which construct the equivalent foundation. Modified modal matrix is introduced to the identification equation, which enables the modal parameters of each vibration modes to be solved independently and therefore simplifies the solving procedure.Numerical foundations established by computer modelling were first identified. The numerical experiment shows that the high DOF foundations can be identified by using limited DOF equivalent foundation accurately even with the input data corrupted by noise. It was shown that equivalent foundation constructed by the modal parameters of the vibration modes within or near the operating frequency range is sufficient to estimate the vibration behaviour of the RBFS over the same frequency range.The developed identification techniques were applied to identify two experimental rigs. The equivalent foundation of the first rig, of which the excitation forces are measured by force transducers, is identified accurately as it estimates the vibration behaviour well. The equivalent foundation of the second rig, of which the excitation forces are derived by the rotor displacement and the rotor model, provides fairly good frequency response estimations, though not as good as those in the first rig.It is concluded that the developed identification procedure can be used to identify an equivalent foundation, which predicts the vibration behaviour of the original foundation well.
