Factors influencing junior managers' poor decisions in new market entry by Adela, Josephine, Chen, Lionel Yingren, Yeo, Marianna Xue Na

“…We found that firms that have made the wrong decision to enter a new market (hence resulting in poor financial performance) tend to have: • Entered the market hastily without a track record of success in prior markets; • Entered the market due to competitive pressure; • Justified their market entry decisions mostly based on competitive reasons; • Sunk in substantial R&Ds expenditures without commensurate marketing expenditures when launching new products in the new market. This study’s findings offer insights into the phenomenon of poor decision making. …”

Simulation-based risk assessment of sUAV-car collision by Hu, Haoliang

“…The use of small unmanned aerial vehicles (sUAVs) in urban area increases significantly in recent years. However, when sUAVs are being operated in urban areas, cars on the ground will be at certain risk due to being exposed to the possible crashing sUAVs, thus the ground risk assessment is critical to reduce ground casualties caused by UAV failures. …”

Performance study of digital communication systems in TWDP fading by Li, Yuan

“…In this scenario, signal experiences through different paths separately to reach the destination, whose amplitude, phase and frequency would change randomly. When being added up, path components can strengthen or weaken each other, leading to the uncertain characteristic of the received signal. …”
