Non-work-related personal use of the Internet within organizations has received increased attention from scholars. We increase previous understanding of this phenomenon by proposing a novel model based on the theory of interpersonal behavior (TIB). The TIB includes previous researched constructs (i.e., attitudes, social influence, and intentions) as well as emotional factors, habits, and differ...

Our study was initiated to provide a better understanding of the factors influencing employees’ non-work-related computing (NWRC) behavior by comparing two models, one based on Triandis’ Theory of Interpersonal Behavior (TIB) and the other derived from the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). Results of the study showed that the TIB-based model had higher explanatory power than the TPB-based model...

In this study, we have used density functional theory (DFT) calculations to characterize if and how defects influence the stability electronic/mechanical properties of M B 2 (AlB -type) for different transition metal . From a point defect analysis including vacancies, interstitials, anti-sites, identify vacancies be most favored, or least unfavored. To provide insight into possible vacancy orde...

Titanium alloy has extensive applications in numerous fields, such as aerospace, shipbuilding, petrochemical, and bio-medical. However, under the condition of high temperature (above 700 °C), it is difficult to meet requirements performance turbine blades, piston rings, valves, etc. In this paper, powder composed Ni60A, TiN, Al, Si accordance with proportion 1:3:4:2 (mass ratio), composite coat...
