Open Source Energy System Modeling Using Break-Even Costs to Inform State-Level Policy: A North Carolina Case Study
ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, 54(2), 665–676.
Contributors: B. Li n, J. Thomas n, A. De Queiroz n & J. Decarolis n
MeSH headings : Carbon Dioxide; Costs and Cost Analysis; Electricity; North Carolina; Power Plants; Wind
TL;DR:
This study utilizes an open-source energy system optimization model and publicly available datasets to examine future electricity generation, CO2 emissions, and CO2 abatement costs for the North Carolina electric power sector through 2050, and develops a new method to calculate break-even costs, which indicate the capital costs at which different technologies become cost-effective within the model.

Modeling Framework for Capacity Analysis of Freeway Segments: Application to Ramp Weaves
TRANSPORTATION RESEARCH RECORD, 2674(1), 148–159.
TL;DR:
A new modeling framework for the analysis of freeway segments that distinguishes between congestion effects caused by high v/c ratios from turbulence caused by merging, diverging, and weaving traffic, thus greatly simplifying the model form and its extensibility to other freeway segment types.

Simulation-Based Analysis of Sign Blanket Replacement Strategies
TRANSPORTATION RESEARCH RECORD, 2674(1), 57–67.
TL;DR:
It is found that daytime inspections reduce the number of unsatisfactory signs while having little effect on cost, and longer replacement cycles that consider daytime inspections and a grace period resulted in more cost-efficient strategies than those with shorter replacement cycles.
