The firm-level approach to intra-industry trade reveals that the variation in the number of exporters or exported varieties (extensive margin) accounts for a greater share of the changes in aggregate trade than the variation in the average exports per firm variety (intensive margin). This paper...

Current province-level administrative division in China breaks the distribution of local culture and many cities are separated from their respective local culture regions to locate in other provinces. These cities encounter potential cultural conflicts with the mainstream culture of the...

A comprehensive mathematical model of the performance of the cathode-supported solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) with syngas fuel is presented. The model couples the intricate interdependency between the ionic conduction, electronic conduction, gas transport, the electrochemical reaction processes in...

A method based on fractal geometry is suggested to simulate the porous structure of calcined limestone, in which a model similar to the Menger sponge is employed for the porous calcine. The bulk fractal dimension is calculated on the basis of the experimentally obtained pore-size distribution...

This article reviews the development of psychological counselling in China. It consists of three parts: counselling in ancient China, counselling in China today, and counselling in the future. Counselling ideas can be traced back to ancient China, 2,500 years ago, but Western counselling...

Promoting the nitrogen oxide (NOx) absorption step is the major challenge for simultaneous removal of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and NOx in wet flue gas desulfurization. This paper studied NOx absorption and absorption product formation in limestone slurry. The effect of CaCO3 concentration, NOx...

Following Jeske's (2006) decentralized international risk sharing arrangement where residents have access to international capital markets, this paper studies the presence of resident default risk on borrowing happened between domestic agents, in addition to default risk on private debt...

This paper reviews the branch of literature that applies models developed in international trade theory (Microeconomics) to explain phenomena found in international finance (Macroeconomics). Among all international trade models, the New New Trade Theory with productivity heterogeneity across...
