We develop a framework to estimate the aggregate capital?labor elasticity of substitution by aggregating actions individual plants. The reflects within plants and reallocation across plants; extent heterogeneity in capital intensities determines their relative importance. use micro data on cross?section build up at point time. Interpreting our econometric estimates through lens several differen...

THE U.S. GOVERNMENT is a larger customer of IoT products than you may realize. Veterans Affairs, for example, buys connected IV pumps its hospitals, while the Environmental Protection Agency water sensors to measure pollution.

cAMP regulates integrin-dependent adhesions of vascular endothelial cells (VECs) to extracellular matrix proteins, their vascular endothelial cadherin-dependent intercellular adhesions, and their proliferation and migration in response to growth and chemotactic factors. Previously, we reported that cAMP-elevating agents differentially inhibited migration of human VECs isolated from large vascul...

After the mathematical notion of “Micro-Macro Duality” for understanding mutual relations between microsopic quantum systems (Micro) and their macroscopic manifestations (Macro) is explained on the basis of the notion of sectors and order parameters, a general mathematical scheme is proposed for detecting the state-structure inside of a sector through measurement processes of a maximal abelian ...

Algae-based wastewater treatment is a promising technology with various applications for excess biomass such as biofertilizer production or valuable elements extraction. The benefits of the have been discussed larger plants (WWTPs), but use microalgae in decentralized has barely reported. current study screens possible resource recovery potential onsite technology, which adds algae-based post-t...

Fibre-reinforced concrete (FRC) has been increasingly used in construction for several decades to reduce crack growth by incorporating one or two types of fibre reinforced elements under the static load. This paper intends investigate experimentally how hybrid systems (micro and macro polypropylene fibres steel fibres) can enhance performance RC beams subjected loading restricting development m...

The demands for mobile communication services are growing rapidly. In heavily populated areas, cell splits are unavoidable to increase the capacity of the cellular system. Cell splitting makes a cellular system have mixed cell sizes. For cell planning, it is necessary to analyze the reverse link capacity of a code-division multiple-access (CDMA) cellular system with mixed cell sizes. In this pa...

abstract one way of the increasing saline tolerance in citrus plants is grafting of sensitive commercial cultivars on to tolerant rootstocks. sweet lime (citrus limetta) is one of the most sensitive species to salinity of soil and water, and under such conditions, drastic reduction of both vegetative and yield occured. this reaserch was conducted in completely randomaized design with factorial ...

The competitive scenario in recent decades has imposed increasing levels of complexity and interdependence to companies, which try to respond to this challenge providing some organizational changes, such as collective arrangements. This article aims to understand the emerging collective competencies based on the mobilization of different working groups to make the turnaround maintenance (TM) po...
