Studies indicated that people behave less responsibly after exposure to information containing deterministic statements as compared to free will statements or neutral statements. Thus, deterministic primes should lead to enhanced risk-taking behavior. We t ...
Tensegrity structures have non-conventional structural properties since they require self-stress in order to be stable. When a tensegrity structure integrates sensors, actuators, (structural members able to change their length) and a control system, deploy ...
This thesis proposes three studies that provide novel empirical evidence on how different types of VCs' characteristics signal the quality of an entrepreneurial venture and influence investment strategies of funds subject to self-regulation. In the first s ...
The Affinity Map is a project founded by the ENAC whose aim is to provide an instrument to understand organizations. The photograph shows the disclosure of the first map for the ENAC Research Day. The visualization was presented to scholars who are display ...
This paper presents a study on force transfer around openings (FTAO) in cross-laminated timber (CLT) shear walls. To elucidate the load transfer mechanism in CLT walls, this study used finite-element models to study five different CLT shear wall configurat ...
The joint consideration of big data and analytics is a relatively recent development, particularly, within the domain of Management of Information Systems (MIS). In recent years there is a dramatic increment of the data produced by digital devices and syst ...
This article investigates the changing role of the CIO at organizational level with regard to the rise of big data and big data analytics as a potential source of innovation and competitive advantage. The paper aims to provide a theoretical contribution to ...
Silicon nanowires (SiNWs), fabricated via a top-down approach and then functionalized with biological probes, are used for electrically-based sensing of breast tumor markers. The SiNWs, featuring memristive-like behavior in bare conditions, show, in the pr ...
The results obtained from many previous studies highlight the need for further investigation of the strong connection existing between fresh state and hardened state performance of fiber reinforced concrete. A comprehensive experimental study was conducted ...
Emergency response in hostile environments often involves remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) that are teleoperated as interaction with the environment is typically required. Many ROV tasks are common to such scenarios and are often recurrent. We show how a ...
