Article history: The study investigates the impact of trade openness on economic growth in the long run. We apply the ARDL Accepted 28 July 2012 bounds testing approach to test for a long run relationship and the augmented production function by incorporating financial development as an additional determinant of economic growth using the framework of

This article adds technology choice to a free-entry Cournot model with linear demand and constant marginal costs. Firms can choose from a discrete set of technologies. This simple framework yields non-existence of equilibrium, existence of multiple equilibria and equilibria in which ex-ante identical ̄rms choose di®erent technologies as possible outcomes. I provide a full characterization of th...

This thesis explores the kinematics and control issues associated with an approach to manipulation that employs all of the available surfaces of a robot to interact with the workspace. This thesis explores manipulations of this type which we term whole-arm manipulation (Wi\.LVI). A classification of WAM tasks into pushing, searching, enclosure, and exclusion is presented and examples of each ar...

This study has investigated the impact of gender inequality and environmental degradation on human well-being in case Pakistan from 1980 to 2019. Augmented Dickey-Fuller unit root test is used for stationarity variables.

This study complements existing literature by examining the nexus between energy consumption (EC), CO2 emissions (CE) and economic growth (GDP) in 24 African countries using a panel ARDL approach. The following findings are established. First, there is a long run relationship between EC, CE and GDP. Second, a long term effect from CE to GDP and EC is apparent, with reciprocal paths. Third, the ...

This study uses the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model to study the dynamic determinant factors that influence both long and short-term international tourism demand in Cambodia from 12 countries. The annual time series data (1994–2013) are used in this study. The study finds that only the international tourism demand model of Australia, Canada, Thailand, the United Kingdom, and USA are...
