There are various studies on the eco-innovation in the literature, but there is a scarcity of studies on the adoption and diffusion within manufacturing small and medium-size enterprises (SMEs). Drivers to adopt eco-innovations by manufacturing SMEs are required to be understood properly and be analyzed regarding the relationships among them. Hence, the purpose of this study is to identify the ...

The smooth running of small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises (SMEs) presents a significant challenge irrespective of the technological and human resources they may have at their disposal. SMEs continuously encounter daily internal and external undesirable events and unwanted setbacks to their operations that detract from their business performance. These are referred to as ‘disturbanc...

Agriculture is one of the pillars of economics and its development requires a particular attention to all production factors. This paper aims to provide a systematic and conceptual model that is based on a conceptualization of the field.

Background: Accurate dose calculations in small beamlets and lung material have been a great challenge for most of treatment planning systems (TPS).  In the current study, the dose calculation accuracy of TiGRT TPS was evaluated for small beamlets in water and lung phantom by comparison to Monte Carlo (MC) calculations. Materials and Methods: The head of Siemens Oncor-impression linac...

Background: Estimating dosimetric parameters for small fields under non-reference conditions leads to significant errors if done based on conventional protocols used for large fields in reference conditions. Hence, further correction factors have been introduced to take into account the influence of spectral quality changes when various detectors are used in non-reference conditions at differen...
