The usual perspective on technology spillovers from FDI sees the MNC subsidiary as a passive actor. It presumes that the technological superiority that spreads from subsidiaries to other firms in the host economy is initially created outside it by MNC parent companies, and is delivered to subsidiaries via international technology transfer. The role of subsidiaries is little more than to act as ...

Chemical imaging technology is a rapid examination technique that combines molecular spectroscopy and digital imaging, providing information on morphology, composition, structure, and concentration of a material. Among many other applications, chemical imaging offers an array of novel analytical testing methods, which limits sample preparation and provides high-quality imaging data essential in...

CO2 capture, use, and storage have been identified as significant strategies for reducing greenhouse gas emissions induced by the usage of fossil fuels. The current review focuses on concepts post-combustion capture technologies based absorption mechanisms. Among all other developed technologies, researchers proposed most mature carbon technology industrial-scale application. Absorption-based c...

This study assesses the feasibility of radar-based remote sensing of barometric pressure of the air at the sea surface. Currently, sea surface barometric pressure measurements can only be obtained from in situ observations including buoy and dropsonde measurements, which are sparse in spatial coverage and expensive to implement. There are no operational remote sensing methods available even in ...

the supersaturatable self-microemulsifying drug delivery system (s-smedds) represents a new thermodynamically stable formulation approach wherein it is designed to contain a reduced amount of surfactant and a water-soluble polymer (precipitation inhibitor or supersaturated promoter) to prevent precipitation of the drug by generating and maintaining a supersaturated state in-vivo. the supersatur...
