The effect of blade depth ratio and fluid velocity on the power production of a deep flow in-stream undershot water wheel was investigated experimentally in a recirculating water channel. The power output of the turbine was determined using a load cell and Hall effect sensor. This method allowed...

While the determinants of Major League Baseball attendance have been thoroughly researched, the literature is conspicuously incomplete in regard to the attendance effects of star players. Addressing two concerns in the research, this study develops two measures of players’ star power and,...

This paper compares two estimation methods of occupational skills transferability, both theoretically and empirically. The first method is based on Shaw's (1984) study, and the second one is based on Ormiston's (2014) study. The main difference between these two methods is that Shaw's skills...
