Using a sample of 1154 European firms from 11 countries, we show that firm-level
exchange exposure for Eurozone and non-Eurozone European firms has increased since
the introduction of the euro, but this rise was smaller ...
Using survey data for 220 traditional manufacturing firms over 7 years of transition and 4 CEE countries, we find firms that produced for the EU market under planning consistently outperform those that produced for the ...
Using survey data for 220 traditional manufacturing firms over 7 years of transition and 4 Central Eastern Europe (CEE) countries, we find firms that produced for the EU market under planning
consistently outperform those ...
Sutton (1998) offers us a simple way to model firm size distributions across differentiated products industries. We analyse the implications of this approach for company markups using a structural model for a specific ...
We show that the stylized facts of the Firm Size Distribution (FSD) by age cohorts, as shown
in Cabral and Mata (2003), bind within 4-digit manufacturing industries in the UK and
Belgium. As in Klepper and Thompson (2006) ...
We construct a theoretical model of the dynamic processes (firm entry, growth,
decline, and exit) that underpin the determination of a limiting firm size distribution
(FSD). In particular, we model such dynamic processes ...
Oxygen isotope data for well dated Holocene speleothems from Europe have been compiled for the first time. The data were analysed at 1 ka time slices through the Holocene by taking averages of 50 year duration. After
filtering ...
The energetic and electronic structures of V-doped anatase TiO2 have been investigated systematically by the GGA+U approach, including replacement of Ti by V in the absence and presence of oxygen vacancies and the presence ...
The electronic properties and photocatalytic activity of nitrogen (N) and/or tungsten (W)-doped anatase are calculated using density functional theory. For N-doping, isolated N 2p states above the top of the valence band ...
The structural, energetic and electronic properties of various S doping configurations by substitution and adsorption at the rutile TiO2 (110) surface have been investigated by first-principles density functional theory ...
Using Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory (TD-DFT), we have investigated the optical properties of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) comprised of TiO2 nanoparticle sensitized with two coumarins, namely, NKX-2311 and ...
This paper reports on an Irish study examining first year students’ recollections of their concerns, motivations, level of preparedness and perceived skills on entry to university. The study aims to investigate and understand ...

Urban development policies have major and immediate impacts on the development and construction processes and have been the subject of major initiatives in recent years particularly in the housing and urban regeneration ...
Purpose – This paper seeks to examine the critical role fiscal incentives have played in urban regeneration in Ireland since 1986, focusing on the role of such incentives, their impact on development and implications for ...

This paper presents a two-sector model of a small open economy with wage rigidities and capital accumulation. The short- and medium-run effects of government expenditure policies are analysed and the results are contrasted ...
