We examine the role of institutional investors in firms¡¯ innovation strategies. We find that although institutional shareholding is positively related to the likelihood of patenting, it is not related to firms¡¯ exploratory innovation activities. Moreover, the presence of a block...

Constructing 2D/2D heterojunction photocatalysts has attracted the great attentions due to their inherent advantages. Herein, 2D/2D CoP/CdS heterojunctions were successfully fabricated and employed in photocatalytic H2 evolution using lactic acid as sacrificial reagents. The multiple...

The enzymatic biofuel cells (EBFCs) are considered as an attractive candidate for powering future implantable medical devices. In this study, a computational model of EBFCs based on three-dimensional (3-D) interdigitated microelectrode arrays was conducted. The main focus of this research is to...

Purpose This study aims to establish a bio-inspired controller for realizing the bounding gait of a quadruped robot system presented in this paper. Design/methodology/approach The bio-inspired controller is divided into three levels to mimic the biological patterns of animals. First, the...

Purpose – The purpose of this study is to analyze Chinese tourists' perceptions toward the 2010 World Expo and the impact of a mega event on the host city and visitor satisfaction. Design/methodology/approach – Guided by the conceptualization of hosting special events for destination...
