Spatial public goods game is a popular metaphor to model the dilemma of collective cooperation on graphs, yet the non-excludable property of public goods has seldom been considered in previous models. Based upon a coevolutionary model where agents play public goods games and adjust their...

Boron doped (B-doped) diamond films are deposited onto WC-Co inserts by HFCVD with the mixture of acetone, trimethyl borate (C3H9BO3) and H2. The as-deposited B-doped diamond films are characterized with scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectroscopy, Raman...

In the present study, the finite volume method (FVM) is adopted to investigate the effect of gas outlet on the fluid field generated by a hot filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD) setup that is designed for the mass-production of diamond coated drills. The temperature field is calculated...

In the present study, the fluid field in a process of fabricating diamond coated cutting tools using the hot filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD) method is investigated using the finite volume method (FVM), in which the effects of the inlet height, gas initial velocity, inlet radius and...

HFCVD diamond films have been extensively applied on inner-hole surfaces of some wear resistant components as protective coatings, the mass production of which puts forward a high request to the HFCVD equipment. In this paper, adopting a typical kind of drawing die as the substrate, several...

Sustainability is significantly important for fashion business due to consumers’ increasing awareness of environment. When a fashion company aims to promote sustainability, the main linkage is to develop a sustainable supply chain. This paper contributes to current knowledge of sustainable...

Finite volume method (FVM) is adopted in the present investigation to simulate the temperature and reactant gas velocity distributions in hot filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD) diamond film growth inside holes, using a detailed 3D computational model well in accordance with the actual...

Si-doped diamond films with various Si concentrations are deposited on WC-Co substrates using HFCVD method, with the mixture of acetone, tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and hydrogen as the reactant source. A variety of characterizations, including FE-SEM, AFM, Raman, XRD, surface profilometer and...

Based on the approach of flow distances, the international trade flow system is studied from the perspective of multi-layer flow network. A model of multi-layer flow network is proposed for modelling and analyzing multiple types of flows in flow systems. Then, flow distances are introduced, and...

l outsourcing with a return policy is quite commonly adopted in the fashion supply chain. Under the return policy, the supplier as a brand owner may focus on production, and then outsource retailing to the retailer. In the meanwhile, the retailer may receive some support money from the supplier...
