We study whether, when, and how better connectivity through nonstop flights leads to positive innovation outcomes for firms in the global context. Using unique data of all flights emanating from 5,015 airports around the globe from 2005 to 2015 and exploiting a regression discontinuity...

This article proposes a novel perspective of technological change based on the ‘Woesian’ model ofcell evolution to study technological change and, in particular, the origins of radical innovation. Themodel identifies horizontal gene transfer (HGT) as a critical force that drives evolution...

For many years, cargo traffic was marred by inefficiency, slow work systems, extensive paperwork and inaccuracies in the supply chain and transportation to the final destination. Processes within the chain itself entailed slow work, which resulted in large deviations in terms of transport and...

Railroads, roads, rivers, and airways are the most common modes of transportation for people and commodities. The cost of different ways of transportation varies according to distance, luxury, size, fragility, and other factors. When the following factors are accounted for, the vehicle might...

Non-exposed space is defined relative to exposed space, and mostly refers to indoor or semi-indoor scenes, such as urban rail transit, tunnels, coal mines, factories, shopping malls, hospitals, etc. Navigation and location information are closely related to human production and life. No matter...

Today, evolving technologies have enabled scientific breakthroughs in innovative wind turbine designs, including taller wind turbine towers and longer blades. These breakthroughs will enable utility-scale wind turbines to reach higher into the atmosphere, access stronger winds, and produce...

The paper looks at the inclusion of international aviation in the EU emissions trading scheme from the perspective of innovation. It argues that the initiative of the European Union to subject international aviation to the scheme has functioned as a catalyst for green innovation in the sector....

This study examines whether port terminals have contributed to the socioeconomic conditions of their vicinities in Colombia, particularly at the port city of Cartagena (PCC). Favourable patterns between socioeconomic indicators and cargo throughput were identified as increases in throughput...
