Investigating transition pathways and transition failures and proposing policy solutions to cope with transition failures; Iran’s wind turbine industry

This paper aims to investigate transition paths and reasons of failure of Iran’s wind turbines industry in transition to sustainability successfully. In this regard, a qualitative approach and case study strategy have been used. For this purpose, based on type of national innovation system, the transition path and sustainability transition status of the wind turbines industry in selected countr...

Successive Failures of Approachability

Motivated by showing that in ZFC we cannot construct a special Aronszajn tree on some cardinal greater than א1, we produce a model in which the approachability property fails (hence there are no special Aronszajn trees) at all regular cardinals in the interval [א2,אω2+3] and אω2 is strong limit.

I am going to talk about a particular chapter in the history of disease, a chapter characterized by the surprising fact that the net effect of successful technical innovations used in disease control has been t...
