in developing countries such as iran it was after economic crises and the increase in price of energy carriers and primary resources that industrial ecology was taken into consideration as a method in industrial states. 941 industrial states in iran have a high potential in creating material and energy flow networks with the industrial ecology approach to prevent massive energy loss and valuabl...

as one way to approach industrial symbiosis, environmental infrastructure sharing is principally concerned with providing an integrated environmental utility system for clustered firms. it is based on the assumption that environmental infrastructure sharing can improve the regional competitive advantage by reducing overall cost and improving environmental performance. in order to verify the ass...

In this paper a discrete-time observer-based approach to Fault Detection and Isolation (FDI) for industrial robotic manipulators is presented and experimentally tested. In order to counteract the effects of unmodeled dynamics and disturbances, a time-delayed estimate of such effects is adopted. Remarkably, the observer is designed directly in the discrete-time domain. The performance of the pro...

Constructivists about memory argue that memory is a capacity for building representations of past events from a generalized information store (e.g., De Brigard, in Synthese 191:155–185, 2014a; Michaelian, in Philos Psychol 24:323–342, 2012). The view is motivated by thememory errors discovered in cognitive psychology. Little has been known about the neural mechanisms by which false memories are...

continued) Also, the extent to which intrinsic vs. extrinsic factors contribute to work motivation was studied. A Valence-Instrumentality-Expectancy (YIE) model of motivation was employed. A questionnaire was administered to a cross-section of 207 naval personnel which comprised over 50 work groups. A rating form was given to the supervisor of each work group. It was found that internals more t...

In 1991, Guilford and Dawkins published their iconic paper on ‘receiver psychology’ in Animal Behaviour (42, 1e14), and proposed that the ways in which animals detect, discriminate and learn about relevant stimuli in their environmen...

As the barriers to hemispheric trade and integration are lowered, it will be asked whether we will we hear the "giant sucking sound" of poorer nations luring U.S. and Canadian firms south to take advantage of low wages and lax environmental regulations? Or, will Latin American nations passively accept this problematical specialization in doing the world's cheap and dirty work? Mexico is the ide...
