Abstract:

Nearly every company executive strives to achieve rapid growth and expansion for their firm, and does so in an almost single-minded manner. This paper focuses on the seldom discussed or accounted for negative side of rapid growth, namely the growing pains experienced by companies as their larger size creates a variety of challenges, such as increased bureaucracy, financial management, and maintaining efficiency. Specifically, this paper began with the Forbes 100 Fastest-Growing Corporations in 2011 and created a dataset of their corporate information over the five-year period after their recog

A Formulation of Multidimensional Growth Models for the Assessment and Forecast of Technology Attributes Travis W. Danner 229 Pages Directed by Dr. Dimitri Mavris This research proposes the formulation of multidimensional growth models as an approach to simulating the advancement of multi-objective technologies towards their upper limits. These multidimensional growth models are formulated by noticing and exploiting the correlation between technology growth models and technology frontiers. Both are frontiers in actuality. The technology growth curve is a frontier between capability levels

Thesis (MScAgric)--Stellenbosch University, 2012.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This research study consists of three investigations with regard to ostrich (Struthio camelus var. domesticus) production, meat quality and the processing of ostrich meat into a value added meat product. The first study was conducted in order to establish whether the gradual replacement of soybean oilcake meal with cottonseed oilcake meal (CSOCM) as a protein source in the diet of slaughter ostriches would affect ostrich growth performance and meat quality. A total of 105 ostriches were divided into five feeding grou

Abstract:

Selenium (Se) is an essential element for human and livestock with antioxidant and anticancer characteristics. Although Se is not an essential element for plants, it has been reported that it can improve plant growth. This experiment was conducted at the Isfahan University of Technology in winter 2010. The experiment was factorial based on a completely randomized design (CRD) with 4 replications. Se was added to nutrient solution in 4 concentrations 2, 4, and 6 mg/l sodium selenite (Na2SeO3).

Abstract:

Light availability in forest understories is a well recognized constraint on sapling growth, but limitations in soil nitrogen (N) availability, and the link to foliar photosynthetic capacity, typically receive less consideration in describing stand dynamics. My primary hypothesis is that light and soil N availability have species-specific effects on photosynthetic activity and growth, and that together these resources will better define understory development in complex forests. To test these relationships, I examined 1) soil N indices and the tradeoffs between soil fertility and light atten

Abstract:

Since the early 1900’s logging activities in coastal British Columbia (BC) have reduced the extent of old-growth forest area from its historical distribution of 90% to approximately 55% of the forest landbase at present. Presently, the province employs an age threshold approach to identify old-growth forest throughout BC. While this approach allows for a rapid inventory assessment, there are several factors that limit its efficacy: the age-based classification method does not capture the gradual development of old-growth features, the development of old-growth structure is not always well corr

In addition, several exotic physical phenomena have been predicted for different compositions in the family, but have not been experimentally realized. By and large, the lack of success in realization of various properties are due to the issues with intrinsic material attributes, which have been difficult to resolve as the relationship between them is not well understood.

Abstract:

Increment cores are invaluable for assessing tree attributes such as inside bark diameter, radial growth, and sapwood area. However, because trees accrue growth and sapwood unevenly around their pith, tree attributes derived from one increment core may not provide sufficient precision for forest management/research activities. To assess the variability in a tree’s inside bark radius, sapwood radius, and 10-year radial growth estimated by tree cores, two increment cores at 90 degree angles were collected from ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) trees in eastern Montana (n = 2,156).

Abstract:

The construction sector of the South African economy consists of a variety of types of enterprises. These enterprises engage in 'formal' and 'informal' construction and building activities. The distinction between these types of activities is that the latter are not recorded in official returns (Krafchik, 1990:5). Within both the formal and informal groups large-scale enterprises (LSEs), medium-scale enterprises (MSEs) and smallscale enterprises (SSEs) are found. These enterprises are owned by individuals from various race groups.

Abstract:

Ecologically sustainable forest management (ESFM) serves dual purposes: 1) to ensure the conservation of biodiversity, and 2) in production forest (forest managed for the production of timber and woodchips), to maintain an economically viable timber industry in perpetuity. A central axiom of ESFM is that any manipulation of a forest ecosystem should emulate the `natural' disturbance patterns of the forest. This is based on the assumption that forest communities have evolved with endogenous disturbance regimes and will be better able to cope if exogenous disturbance (e.g., logging) remains with
