Are University Business Incubators Overprotective Parents?: A Knowledge as a Resource-Based Perspective on Growth of Academic Spinoffs using an Open Innovation and Absorptive Capacity Framework

University business incubators are a global rising phenomenon and have an imprint on the genetics of high technology-based academic spin-offs and are central to the triple-helix model of innovation systems for academia-industry-policy. Research focused on Regional Innovation System of Delft suggest that the high technology-based start-ups face...

Fatigue disbond growth in primary aerospace structures

A parametric finite element model incorporating virtual crack closure technique was developed in order to determine the critical disbond size and location for disbond growth in an adhesively bonded skin stiffened structure, subjected to uniaxial compression loading. The model was validated using static experimental tests on both pristine and...
