Dispersion of agglomeration through transport infrastructure
… of the growth theories; (2) extends the scope of agglomeration effects by highlighting a city's access to external resources as a partial substitute for its own endowment; and (3) bridges the spatial discontinuity between regional and urban studies by introducing intercity accessibility as a …

Effect of Compression Force on Agglomeration of Micronized Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients: Techniques to Prevent API Agglomeration During Compression
… into tablets, there is a possibility of agglomeration of micronized API to API particles together within the tablet due to their high surface area and high surface free energy during compression. Increasing the particle size and decreasing the surface is generally expected to decrease the …

Essays on human capital heterogeneity and agglomeration
… within cities enhances individual productivity. Agglomeration theory suggests productivity is driven by rapid and frequent interactions with others in spatially-constrained areas. Using formal education data from the 2011 American Community Survey, we empirically test that theory by estimating …

Composite propellant combustion with low aluminum agglomeration
Aluminum behavior—accumulation, agglomeration and ignition—is studied in a unique, wide-distribution, ammonium perchlorate/hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (AP/HTPB) propellant formulation that results in low Al agglomeration, even at low pressures (1-30 atm). Variations in formulation—such as …

Essays on Industrial Agglomeration and Input-Output Linkages
Industrial agglomeration is an important subject in the field of regional economics. It is an economic phenomenon with two dimensions---space and industry. These two dimensions call for research that can take both spatial and industry factors into consideration regarding industrial agglomeration. …

AGGLOMERATION ECONOMIES, INVESTMENT IN EDUCATION, AND REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT
… of two essays that study the linkages among agglomeration economies, investment in education, and regional development. In the first essay, I study the impact of a federal educational investment on various aspects of local economies. In the second essay, I examine the spillover effects among …

Essays on Agglomeration, Homeownership, and Labor Market Outcomes
… of two essays on the labor market impact of agglomeration economies and that of homeownership. The empirical analyses use different U.S. data and econometric techniques to examine the impact on different labor market outcomes such as volatility of hours worked and men's employment.</p> <p>The …

Die Auswirkung der Integration Europas auf die Agglomeration von Industriesektoren
Vergleicht man die räumliche Industriekonzentration der USA mit der europäischen in den siebziger Jahren, erkennt man, daß Industriesektoren in den USA wesentlich stärker agglomeriert sind als in Europa. Dies führt Paul Krugman auf das zum Untersuchungszeitpunkt bestehende größere Maß an …

Melt agglomeration with hydrophobic meltable binders in high shear mixer
Melt agglomeration is an ideal model to elucidate the mechanism of agglomerate formation and growth as the interpretation of agglomeration outcome is not complicated by the evaporation of binding liquid. Although a substantial amount of work has been carried out on melt agglomeration process in …

An analysis of the kinetics for oil agglomeration of coal
… emulsification decreased the time needed for agglomeration and created slightly more compact spherical agglomerates. Although the use of heptane (a nonpolar oil) created more selective agglomeration of the organic matter, its use caused the agglomeration to proceed at a slower rate. Of the …

Agglomeration of Bed Particles in Low-Temperature Black Liquor Gasification
… steam reformers are not reliable is due to the agglomeration of the particles in the fluidized bed. The particles will stick together, agglomerate, at temperatures much lower than their melting temperature. The strength of these bonds and the temperature at which the bed agglomerates were …

The growth implications of Agglomeration in South Africa, 1996-2010
The paper investigates whether the spatial distribution of economic activity in South Africa is static or evolving. Testing Gibrat’s Law to determine this, results suggest growth patterns in South Africa have been divergent over the period 1996-2010. The share of population, employment and GVA in …
