Eco‐Innovation Among Environmental Small and Medium Enterprises: A Complexity Theory View on a Regional Paradox

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental entrepreneurship and eco‐innovation, although cornerstones in the transition to a sustainable world, form a research nexus that remains largely understudied. We draw on the theory of complexity and the notion of cultural, temporal, and relational complexities to explain the process of eco‐innovation among environmental small ...

SELECTION OF THE TWO–CARRIER SHIFTING PLANETARY GEAR TRAIN CONTROLLED BY CLUTCHES AND BRAKES

open access: yesTransactions of FAMENA, 2012
In this paper, the methodology of establishing two-carrier planetary gear trains (PGT) equipped with a speed-changing system which contains breaks and clutches is considered. The reactive shaft is changed by means of breaks whereas the input and output shaft of the gear train are changed by clutches.

Automated Process Optimization in a Novel Triple Shaft Mixer with Adaptive Mixing Modes

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
A novel multi‐purpose mixer with adjustable blade angle and a coaxial stirrer is developed, providing three degrees of freedom. An optimization strategy is integrated to autonomously identify optimal operating conditions through automated tests. The current draw of the main stirrer serves as the optimization criterion, while stirrer speeds, directions,
