The purpose of this paper is to analyze the simultaneous effect of Corporate Culture and market orientation on the performance of small to medium-sized industrial manufacturing firms. To this end, a cross-sectional survey and variance based structural equation modeling was used for testing the hypotheses. The samples were selected based on a stratified sampling of commodity and specialty indust...

the best deal. nowhere is more real than today business environment which affect the success or otherwise of any business venture. several authors have attributed failure of businesses particularly small and medium scale enterprises to various factors ranging from training of the entrepreneur to exposure and experience while some analysts opined that business environment could impact on small a...

background: previous studies reported many discrepancies about the effects of corpus luteum (cl) and ovarian follicle size on the developmental competence of oocytes. objective: the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of cl and different size of follicle on the developmental potential of bovine oocytes. materials and methods: after ovarian classification based on presence or absenc...

the main purpose of this study was to identify and analyze the mechanisms of small and medium enterprises (smes) development in qazvin province. the study is an applied quantitative research. the data was collected using a descriptive-survey method. the statistical population of the study consisted of managers in charge of smes in qazvin province.  93 people were selected as the sample by using...

This paper is concerned with the surface and small scale effects on transverse vibration of a viscoelastic single-layered graphene sheet (SLGS) subjected to an in-plane magnetic field. The SLGS is surrounded by an elastic medium which is simulated as Visco-Pasternak foundation. In order to investigate the small scale effects, the nonlocal elasticity theory is employed due to its simplicity and ...

determining production rate considering costs and revenues in order to maximize profit is one of the applied problems in small and medium size factories. mostly existing models in production planning consider production system statically and specify production rate, although the factors determining production rate include many different changes in practice. in fact, by increasing the production...

small and medium-sized enterprises (smes) are vital components of global economy. identifying the factors affecting the business growth can influence the policies that support entrepreneurship development. the main objective of this study is to identify the factors affecting the growth of small and medium-sized garment-producing businesses owned by women entrepreneurs. one of the innovations of...

In this study, an Eulerian-Eulerian multi-fluid model (MFM) was used to simulate the segregation pattern of a conical fluidized bed containing ternary mixtures of equidensity TiO2‌ particles. Experimental 'freeze–sieving' method was employed to determine the axial mass fraction profiles of the different-sized particles, and validate the simulation results. The profiles of mass fraction for larg...
