Analýza potencionálních dopadů zavedení mýtného pro vozidla pod 3,5 tuny v České repulice / Analysis of Potential Consenquences of Toll Implication for Vehicles under 3,5 Tonnes in the Czech RepublicSrnka, Jan January 2016 (has links)
The Master Thesis is focused on potential consequences of toll implication for vehicles under 3,5 tonnes. The main goal of this paper is to evaluate these consequences and propose a recommendation to the government whether to imply the toll or not. Quantitative research methods in a form of questionnaire were used in order to estimate the potential consequences of 0,4 CZK per km toll for vehicles under 3,5 tonnes. Moreover, was analysed the publicly accessible data of transportation, car accidents and deaths on roads in case of the Czech Republic. Theoretical part is focused on the currently used system on highways, the history of highways, system used in European countries and aspects of cost-benefit analysis. Three frequently used highways were examined in the practical part of this paper. A numerous of calculations were used in order to quantify all possible costs of toll implication. Toll implication costs and additional costs that arise due to avoiding expensive highways by some drivers represented the main aim of these calculations. Conclusion of this paper sums up key points of this paper and points out possible negative consequences of toll implication.

The Smart Card as an Electronic Identifier in the Czech Republic and EU / Čipová karta jako elektronický identifikátor pojištěnce v ČR a EU.Němcová, Eva January 2010 (has links)
This diploma work analytically examines data resources and conditions for the implementation of an electronic identifier for an insured person in the Czech Republic with relation to the Europian Union. It describes the concept of a single electronic identification method and the possibilities for the utilization of different technologies and extreme situations that may arise in connection with the deficiencies of the judicial code, that would clearly work manipulation with the personal data, its security and access to it. Here compared in this work are the merits and disadvantages of the implementation or adversely the non-implementation of the electronic identifier via a cost-benetfit analysis that gives an answer to the economic question about the implementation of the project, and also describes the benefits for each group of beneficiaries.

Conditions for social discountingOwen, Glyn William January 2013 (has links)
Social discounting aims to compare the respective future consequences of differing courses of action for human well-being, and so to help decide on policies for matters as varied as climate change, transport and criminal justice. Social discounting is widely used, though some decisions are too trivial, or too urgent, for it to be justified. Even so, its pervasive use is at variance with scepticism about its moral foundations, and about whether the comparisons that it claims to make can be made at all. Debate has, however, concentrated on how, rather than on whether, social discounting should be done and the conditions upon which it must be based seem never to have been set out systematically. This thesis aims to fill that gap, by explaining the moral and practical conditions that must be met for social discounting to be justified. The conditions are demanding. It behoves policy makers to satisfy themselves more carefully than is now done that the conditions are met in respect of the decisions where use of social discounting is proposed, and to consider alternatives where one or more conditions is not met. The thesis takes for granted that human well-being counts morally. But social discounting requires that well-being is capable of being described through an objective list of desiderata and that some aspect of well-being is measurable, at least on a cardinal scale and inter-personally, implying commensurabilities amongst some of the things comprising or contributing to well-being. Some moral theories incorporate priorities, such as property rights or the interests of poor people. Priorities range from easy to meet to very difficult. Priorities of the latter type are inconsistent with social discounting, and are the basis for theories as varied as those of Nozick and Nussbaum. This thesis suggests that the theories consistent with social discounting may collectively be called ‘moderate welfarism’. Moderate welfarism allows room for priorities and other moral considerations provided only that the monetisable aspect of social well-being is morally important. Moderate welfarism is necessary but not sufficient for social discounting to be justifiable. Practical difficulties may make it incapable of implementation. One such difficulty is the well-known epistemic problem, but the thesis sets out nine such difficulties, each implying a condition that must be met if social discounting is to be capable of practical use. The thesis concludes that the moral and practical conditions that must be met for social discounting to be justified are demanding and, more speculatively, that some of the conditions are not widely understood leading to inappropriate use of the technique by governments.

Analýza nákladů a přínosů zvýšení hlukových limitů / Cost - Benefit Analysis on noise limits increaseZelenka, Václav January 2011 (has links)
The objective of the thesis is - with the aid of cost benefit analysis - evaluate economic impacts of planned amendment to Regulation of the Government No. 148/2006 Coll. On Health Protection from Adverse Effects of Noise and Vibration, namely based on the case of specific road track. Amendment to Regulation is aimed at making existing noise limits softer (to increase them) and thus to bring about savings in investment cost connected with anti-noise measures. The thesis intends to use a single case study to find out whether benefits resulting from price reduction in the process of road construction are higher than costs in the form of decrease of welfare caused by the higher noise exposition; alternatively at what period savings in costs connected with road construction equal to decrease in welfare (savings in costs are one-off, while increase in noise exposition and related drop in welfare are long-term). Estimated changes in welfare are based on analysis of secondary sources -- first of all on the study of traffic externalities in the Czech republic conducted by contingent valuation method. The actual core of the thesis is cost benefit analysis. Attention is paid also to broader discussion on experience in providing exceptions from noise limits in the Czech Republic.

Previous issue date: 2014-10-31 / INTRODUÇÃO: O Diabetes Mellitus é um transtorno metabólico, caracterizado por
hiperglicemia. É considerada condição sensível à Atenção Primária, tendo impacto
por reduzir ou retardar as complicações da doença. A reposição de insulina para o
diabete mellitus tipo 2 é indicada quando somente mudanças no estilo de vida
associados a hipoglicemiante oral forem insuficientes para obter controle glicêmico.
OBJETIVOS: Determinar o custo-utilidade da insulina glargina e insulina NPH para o
tratamento de pacientes com diabetes mellitus tipo 2 atendidos no Sistema Único de
Saúde do Município de Recife – PE. MÉTODOS: Foi realizada comparação da
categoria custos médicos diretos de duas intervenções terapêuticas indicadas para o
tratamento do diabete mellitus tipo 2. A avaliação de custo-utilidade foi realizada a
partir da perspectiva do Sistema Único de Saúde. Foi considerado um horizonte
analítico de 10 anos. Os dados coletados foram de fontes secundárias, de sistema
de informação em saúde, dados dos relatórios emitidos nos sistemas de
informatização das Farmácias do Recife e da Farmácia do Estado de Pernambuco e
fontes da literatura. Para a análise de decisão, foram consideradas as hipoglicemias
noturnas e não noturnas graves e não graves. RESULTADOS: O indivíduo médio,
representante de Pernambuco, apresenta 8,7 anos de diagnóstico do DM2, recebem
aproximadamente 14,4 frascos de insulina NPH ou Glargina ao ano, dados estes,
utilizados na probabilidade de transição. Para o cenário das complicações agudas, o
custo do usuário foi calculado para 2013: sem complicação em uso da insulina NPH
foi de R$ 1.237,95 e para insulina Glargina R$ 4.935,42. Foi considerado 12
episódios de hipoglicemia noturna grave ao ano. A redução de risco de hipoglicemia
para pacientes em uso da insulina Glargina é de 50,9% apresentando cinco
episódios ao ano. A razão de custo incremental (RCEI) do presente estudo, indica
um valor agregado adicionado de R$ 12.987,4892 por AVAQ ganho a cada ano de
tratamento com a insulina glargina em relação a NPH. CONCLUSÕES: Houve
redução de episódio de hipoglicemia noturna grave da insulina glargina comparado
com a insulina NPH. Os dados apresentados não permite afirmar qual da
intervenção é mais efetiva, apenas mostra que a insulina glargina tem um maior
custo-utilidade e um custo médico direto maior. Os custos incrementais e os
benefícios alcançados em anos de vidas ganhos produziu uma Razão de R$
12.987,4892 ao ano para a insulina glargina. Diante das incertezas acerca da
efetividade das insulinas analisadas, faz-se necessário a realização de estudos
aprofundados entre estas intervenções terapêuticas. / INTRODUCTION: Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by
hyperglycemia. It is considered sensitive to Primary Health Care, considering its
impacting to reduce or delay complications of the disease. Replacement of insulin for
diabetes mellitus type 2 is indicated only when changes in lifestyle associated with
oral hypoglycemic agents are insufficient to obtain glycemic control. OBJECTIVES:
To determine the cost-utility of insulin glargine and NPH insulin for the treatment of
patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus treated at the Unified Health System of the
Municipality of Recife - Pernambuco. METHODS: We compared the direct medical
costs of category two therapeutic interventions indicated for the treatment of diabetes
mellitus type 2 was performed Assessment of cost-utility analysis was performed
from the perspective of the Health System was considered an analytic horizon of 10
years.. The data were collected from secondary sources of health information system
data reports issued in the computerization of Pharmacies and Pharmacy Recife
Pernambuco State and literature sources systems. For decision analysis, were
considered nocturnal hypoglycemia and nocturnal not serious and not serious.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: The average individual, representative of
Pernambuco, has 8.7 years of diagnosis of T2DM, receive approximately 14.4 vials
of NPH or glargine per year, these data are used in the transition probability. For the
setting of acute complications, the user cost was calculated for 2013: Uncomplicated
in use NPH insulin was R$ 1,237.95 and R$ 4,935.42 insulin glargine. Was
considered 12 episodes of severe nocturnal hypoglycemia per year. The reduced risk
of hypoglycemia for patients on insulin glargine is 50.9% with five episodes per year.
The ratio of incremental cost (ICER) of this study, indicates a value added of R$
12,987.4892 per QALY gained every year of treatment with insulin glargine
compared to NPH. CONCLUSION: There was a reduction of severe nocturnal
hypoglycemia episode of insulin glargine compared with NPH insulin. The data
presented allows not say which intervention is most effective, just shows that insulin
glargine has a higher utility cost and a direct medical cost higher. Incremental costs
and benefits achieved gains in years of life produced a ratio of R$ 12.987,4892 year
to insulin glargine. Given the uncertainties about the effectiveness of insulin
analyzed, it is necessary to conduct in-depth studies of these therapeutic
interventions.

Retrofitting heritage buildings for energy and seismic upgradesKobraei, Mohsen 25 September 2020 (has links)
The application of retrofit options to existing heritage buildings has become one of the most interesting topics in construction. In Victoria, BC, Canada, only 4% of commercial or institutional heritage buildings have been upgraded to current building codes in the last 10 years. Remaining 96% buildings exist with poor energy performance characteristics and a risk to occupant safety in the event of a damaging earthquake. This study investigates the importance and benefits of simultaneous energy and seismic retrofitting of existing heritage buildings. It presents a case study for a building with identifiable heritage value, located in Victoria, BC, Canada, and analyzes five feasible options in terms of energy retrofitting and presents a solution for both seismic and energy upgrading. To this aim, the energy retrofit options are compared based on the amount of saved energy, annual heating demand and estimated costs. The seismic solution is designed based on the weakness and needs of the building, and cost-effectiveness. Finally, the best solution is selected for a building that dates back to the beginning of the 20th century. This study shows that the integration of energy and seismic retrofitting of heritage buildings provides economic benefits to owners while improving energy savings and building safety. / Graduate / 2021-08-31

Ecological and Economic Implications of Establishing Quercus spp. in the Urban EnvironmentBocsi, Tierney 02 July 2019 (has links)
As urban greening efforts continue, it is important to assess whether decisions to intensify street tree planting are meeting intended goals of improving urban canopy cover and increasing ecosystem services. Benefits of the urban forest take many forms, from ecological and economic to social and cultural, and are frequently cited in support of street tree planting. However, it is unknown to what extent factors such as species or nursery production method affect the ability of trees to successfully establish and provide ecosystem services in the urban environment. Using a system of oak trees planted along roads in South Amherst, Massachusetts during spring 2014, growth in caliper at six inches, diameter at breast height, and total tree height from fall 2014 to fall 2018 were modeled to determine whether species and/or nursery production method influenced street tree establishment and growth. Economic benefits were examined using a novel approach, whereby the breakeven point of costs and returns in ecosystem services was identified. Results indicated that both species and nursery production method influenced the success of these trees, which provided a return on investment by year 2018, in terms of both growth and benefits provided. This information is relevant to tree wardens and others tasked with street tree planning and maintenance, who must work within the confines of limited budgets in an environment that poses many challenges for trees.
