A Game of Simulation: Modeling and Analyzing the Dragons of Game of Thrones
This paper outlines two approaches for mathematical, simulation, modeling,
and analysis of hypothetical creatures, in particular, the dragons of HBO's
television series Game of Thrones (GOT). Our first approach, the forward model,
utilizes quasi-empirical observations of various features of GOT dragons. We
then mathematically derive the growth rate, other dimensions, energy
consumption, etc. In the backward model, we use projected energy consumption by
given ecological impact to model an expected dragon in terms of physical
features. We compare and contrast both models to examine the plausibility of a
real-world existence for our titular dragons and provide brief analyses of
potential impacts on ecology.Comment: 16 page

The systemic, long-run relation among gasoline demand, gasoline price, income, and vehicle ownership in OECD countries: evidence from panel cointegration and causality modeling
This paper analyzes gasoline consumption per capita, income (GDP per capita), gasoline price, and car ownership per capita for a panel of OECD countries by employing panel unit root and cointegration testing, panel Dynamic and Fully Modified OLS estimations, and panel Granger-causality tests. The four variables are determined to be panel I(1) and cointegrated. Estimated long-run and short-run income elasticities are smaller than what typically had been found previously. Lastly, gasoline consumption is Granger-caused by gasoline price, but not by car ownership or income; whereas, car ownership is Granger-caused by income and at the margin by gasoline consumption, but not by gasoline price
