We empirically examine the correlation between extreme episodes of sectoral capital inflows, using a sample of 50 advanced and emerging economies from 2000Q1 to 2021Q4. We document that a sudden stop in one financial sector is often accompanied by a surge in another sector, especially in...

A stable, low-cost, and reusable Co nanoparticles catalyst imbedded in nitrogen-doped carbon matrix (Co@C-N) for selective catalytic hydrogenation (CHG) of furfural (FF) to furfuryl alcohol (FA) has been exploited. The catalyst is directly derived from 2-methylimidazole modified ZIF-67 MOFs...

This article applies the Granger causality test in quantiles to investigate causal relations between stock returns and exchange rate changes for nine Asian markets over the period 1 January 1997 to 16 August 2010. Our empirical results indicate that the quantile causal relations vary across...

A residual-based moving block bootstrap procedure for testing the null hypothesis of linear cointegration versus cointegration with threshold effects is proposed. When the regressors and errors of the models are serially and contemporaneously correlated, our test compares favourably with the...

When a Make-To-Order (MTO) enterprise receives a bidding invitation from a customer, he does not know the demand is price-sensitive or time-sensitive. In order to increase the possibility of winning this contingent order, the enterprise tenders his bid with two options characterized with price...

This study theoretically proposes and experimentally demonstrates the simultaneous reductions of NOx and soot using a novel combustion mode, (dual-fuel sequential combustion) DFSC, on a single-cylinder engine. DFSC introduces a well-mixed, lean fuel/air mixture into the cylinder by injecting...
