The characteristic texture of turrón, torrone and nougat was examined. They are typical European confections prepared from almonds, honey, sugars and/or chocolate. Three different instrumental tests: puncture, cutting, and Texture Profile Analysis (TPA), were used in this study and samples prepared from three countries (Spain, Italy, and France), and by six manufacturing companies (two companie...

Manufacturing produces real wealth for any country and constitutes the back bone for the service sector. The objective of any organization is to earn profit. Usually the market fixes the selling price of the manufactured components. Unless there is focus on the manufacturing strategy of reducing manufacturing cost, it is very difficult to sustain in this ever competitive world. A suitable manuf...

The diffusion of innovation theory has already addressed the major contextual factors hindering or facilitating management accounting innovations (MAIs) in organisations. However, MAIs less developed countries (such as Libya) is still very low, and by seem to fail explain low diffusion. To address this important gap literature, study used contingency investigated association between a variety (...

t his paper investigates the gain of bilateral trade between china and u.s. in manufacturing sectors when both countries play a role in asymmetric (biased) growth of  international trade. our model includes a special case of biased growth theory in international trade. we collected labor productivity, export and import data by using classification of manufacturing industries, for u.s. and china...

Empirical studies report a marked dispersion in skill-premium changes across economies over the past few decades. Early studies successfully replicate the increases in skill premiums in many economies, while some other cases with a decline in the skill premium are yet to be explained. To this end, we develop a two-sector (i.e., manufacturing and nonmanufacturing) general equilibrium model with ...

The calculation of carbon emissions is important to determine the footprint and environmental impact manufacturing processes assess which steps could be further optimized make greener more sustainable. A previously published holistic approach was applied in conventional laser-based material removal most intensive one. were calculated results show that drilling than drilling, while reverse true ...
