Abstract: Firms are connected with other firms through a variety of economic relationships that can be viewed as a form of social network. Resource-dependency theory (RDT) suggests that formal joint ventures among firms occur as a ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the thermal and fluid dynamic characteristics due to multiple miniature axial fans with blade chord and span length scales less than 10 mm, impinging air onto finned surfaces. A coupled approach, ...

Abstract: In much of the public literature on pinfin heat transfer, the Nusselt number is presented as a function of Reynolds number using a powerlaw correlation. Powerlaw correlations typically have an accuracy of 20% while the ...

Abstract: Crushed waste glass bottles accumulating in stockpiles around New Zealand are an environmental concern, but also provide an available resource for potential use in concrete by partially replacing coarse and fine natural ...

Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to present a nonlinear control method for accurately maintaining coolant temperature within a proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell stack by controlling coolant ...

Abstract: Input shaping has been shown to be a practical and effective control scheme for reducing payload swing on industrial bridge and gantry cranes. However, when applied to tower cranes, standard ...

Abstract: Runoff has important meaning in the context of the performance of post-construction best management practices (BMP) and compliance with National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) storm water permits. To ...
