This paper is devoted to stability analysis of the Zheng-Gang landslide in the Gu-Shui hydropower station in China. Based on the geological field investigations, the formation processes, the deformation mechanism related to rainfalls and the instability mode are first analyzed. Large scale...

We propose a novel capacity model for complex networks against cascading failure. In this model, vertices with both higher loads and larger degrees should be paid more extra capacities, i.e. the allocation of extra capacity on vertex i will be proportional to k<Subscript>i</Subscript> <Superscript>γ</Superscript> , where k<Subscript>i</Subscript> is the degree of...</subscript></superscript></subscript>

This is a study to the entry modes of MNCs in the particular Chinese institutional and business environments whithin the transaction cost analytical framework.

Direct foreign investment (DFI) has played an important role in the economic development of China in the past 15 years. It contributed to the Chinese domestic capital formation and industrial growth, and promoted export expansion and employment creation. This paper provides an empirical...

Drought is one of the major natural disasters occurring in China and causes severe impacts on agricultural production and food security. Therefore, agricultural drought vulnerability assessment has an important significance for reducing regional agricultural drought losses and drought disaster...

Chinese Low-rent housing subsidy has been increasing year by year. However, it will be a very one-sided view if we only take the increasing number of subsidy into consideration when evaluating the effects of subsidy policy on low-rent housing lessees. Thus we studied on the impact of subsidy...
