Abstract:
... This study investigates the relationship between technologies that firms expect to achieve after cross‐licensing (CL) and their incentives for signing CL agreements in a multiproduct‐firm setting. Results indicate that if markets are bounded substantial technological improvements that result in removal of firms’ current products from the market may in fact reduce firms’ incentives to negotiate a C ...

Abstract:
... Actors in the agri-food system are increasingly urged to more sustainability, but actions to organize the system's sustainable development encounter difficulties, such as overcoming trust between actors, aligning different views on sustainability or finding the right tools to monitor sustainable development. This suggests that more guidance is needed. Initiated by an open demand from leading actor ...

Abstract:
... The breaking with regime logics is one of the key leverage points to enable a socio-technical transition. Understanding how, and under what conditions, this may happen is thus an important task for transition studies. Recent research on socio-technical regimes has shown that they may be less geographically bound than previously assumed. Regimes may instead be replicated and reinforced globally thr ...

Abstract:
... In the field of renewable-energies, a number of engineering problems are modeled as dynamical systems, and a key issue is the assessment of their stability to external disturbances. Stability analyses typically focus on the asymptotic stability, i.e., the fate of perturbations after long times from their onset. The system behavior at finite-times has attracted much less attention, although it play ...

Abstract:
... In power industries, it is a common practice to use an equivalent model of the external power network in an optimization model of the internal power network in order to protect data privacy. However, existing equivalent models cannot accurately consider the operational constraints of an external power network. In this paper, a unified equivalent model is proposed to precisely capture the transfer ...
