To minimize unwanted noise, the exhaust gas of high pressure and high temperature coming out of internal combustion engine passes through silencer. Various types of silencers like absorptive, reactive and resonating, perforated type are widely implemented in actual practice .perforated reactive mufflers have an effective damping capability. This paper deals with comparative structural analysis ...

In this conceptual paper, we examine IT-enabled frugal innovation from the lens of absorptive capacity theory (ACAP). The practice of frugal innovation in emerging economies is rooted in low cost approaches, constrained resources, and flexible improvisation. As frugal innovation is an emergent phenomenon, there is little theoretical development and empirical investigation with respect to the en...

This study proposes a new concept, green organisational ambidexterity, that integrates green exploration learning and green exploitation learning simultaneously. Besides, this study argues that the antecedents of green organisational ambidexterity are green shared vision and green absorptive capacity and its consequents are green radical innovation performance and green incremental innovation p...

In this paper, absorptive capacity e ects of human capital on innovation are introduced into the endogenous growth model. In order to empirically test their relevance, a spatial endogenous sample splitting estimator is proposed. With the help of the proposed model and estimation strategy, we are able to empirically demonstrate the relevance of absorptive capacity e ects on innovation controllin...

Starting from the known one-loop result for the ee-annihilation process ee γ,Z −→ qq̄g with massless quarks we employ analyticity and crossing to determine the absorptive parts of the corresponding one-loop contributions in Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS) and in the Drell-Yan process (DY). Whereas the O(α2 s) absorptive parts generate a nonmeasurable phase factor in the ee-annihilation channel o...

In spite of much research on corporate social responsibility (CSR) responses to secondary stakeholders (i.e., social movements, activists, media, civil society and non-governmental organizations), the debate on how companies learn from pressure and collaboration with these societal groups is still open. Building upon stakeholder and knowledge management theories, this paper analyzes how seconda...

Absorptive corrections to scattering and production in a family of explicitly unitary models is studied. We find that in a particular model in which quantum number constraints are ignored, all the results concerning absorptive corrections found in the Reggeon calculus model of Abramovskii, Kancheli, and Gribov are reproduced. In extended models, however, the effects due to quantum numbers and/o...

An organization’s absorptive capacity is important for facilitating innovation that can lead to organizational performance. I examine the effects of absorptive capacity on open source software development group performance. Specifically, in addition to the commonly noted importance of OSS developers, the role of the Internet-based user community is introduced as fundamental in developing absorp...

The intestine of adult indigenous goat of Assam (Capra hircus) was studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) for elucidating the morphology of intestinal mucosa as well as the morphology of gutassociated lymphoid tissue including Peyer’s patches (PP) and solitary lymphoid nodule. SEM of intestines revealed the presence of villi in the small intestinal mucosa. Goblet cells were noticed as wh...
