Proceedings of the 2nd International Symposium on Asia Urban GeoEngineering
This book contains the keynote presentations, invited speeches, and general session papers presented at the 2nd International Symposium on Asia Urban GeoEngineering, which will be held from 24 November to 27 November 2017 in Changsha, China. The contents will cover the topics of (i) Fundamental behavior and constitutive model of geomaterials, (ii) Excavation and slope engineering, (iii) Tunnel and underground engineering, (iv) Foundation and foundation treatment, (v) Environmental geotechnical engineering, (vi) Numerical methods in geotechnical engineering. It will provide an opportunity to share knowledge and experiences of the analysis, design, construction, and maintenance of urban geoengineering among engineers, researchers, and professors in Asian countries. It will improve our knowledge of requirements of geoengineering for a long-term sustainable urban development and the need to protect and preserve our environment.
Cultural Distance and Staffing Policy
In this study, we resolve a dilemma in the staffing policies of foreign subsidiaries in culturally distant countries--whether to deploy more expatriates from the home country or hire more local employees from the host country's local labor market. To this end, we adopt a novel approach by considering the operational roles of foreign subsidiaries in global supply chains using a unique dataset of Korean-owned foreign manufacturing subsidiaries. Specifically, we explore the following two types of foreign subsidiaries: horizontal subsidiaries (i.e., those accessing the host country's local market by local production) and vertical subsidiaries (i.e., those performing a specific task in the multin...
R&D Effects on Firm Productivity, Exports, and OFDI
This report empirically analyzes the effects of firm R&D on firm performance, particularly on firm productivity, exports, and outward foreign direct investment (OFDI) by using Korean firm-level data. While this report lies in line with prior literatures that examined firm R&D effects on firm performance, we further explores the pathway connection between the two. That is, we not only examine firm R&D effects on particular firm performance, but also study the significance of firm productivity as a pathway that links firm R&D with firm exports and OFDI. Our estimation results indicate that firm R&D significantly heightens firm performance, particularly by showing stronger impact on firm perfor...
Risk Analysis XI
Containing the papers from the 11th International Conference on Computer Simulation in Risk Analysis and Hazard Mitigation 2018, this book will be of interest to those concerned with all aspects of risk management and hazard mitigation, associated with both natural and anthropogenic hazards. Current events help to emphasise the importance of the analysis and management of risk to planners and researchers around the world. Natural hazards such as floods, earthquakes, landslides, fires and others have always affected human societies. The more recent emergence of the importance of man-made hazards is a consequence of the rapid technological advances made in the last few centuries. The interaction of natural and anthropogenic risks adds to the complexity of the problems. The included papers, presented at the Risk Analysis Conference, cover a variety of topics related to risk analysis and hazard mitigation.
Anti Dumping Duty and Firm Heterogeneity: Evidence from Korea(KIEP Working Paper 13-04)
This paper examines the imposition of Anti-dumping (AD) duties on foreign imported products in Korea. We use panel data for Korean firms between 2002 and 2010 and estimate the changed firm-level productivity of domestic import-competing firms before and after the imposition of duties. In contrast to recent research analyzing the effects of AD measures on firm performance, we find evidence of a decrease in estimated productivity of protected domestic firms during the AD protection period. We then discuss the channels behind our results and find that the average productivity losses are not driven by the changes in company account variables that influence firm productivity during the protection period. Instead, we find that AD protection has heterogeneous treatment effects on firm productivity depending on the market structure.
Deformation Characteristics of Geomaterials
This book is the international edition of the proceedings of IS-Seoul 2011, the Fifth International Symposium on Deformation Characteristics of Geomaterials, held in Seoul, South Korea, in September 2011.The book includes 7 invited lectures, as well as 158 technical papers selected from the 182 submitted. The symposium explored ideas about the complex load-deformation response in geomaterials, including laboratory methods for small and large strains; anisotropy and localization; time-dependent responses in soils; characteristics of treated, unsaturated, and natural geomaterials; applications in field methods; evaluation of field performance in geotechnical structures; and physical and numeri...
외국인직접투자의 유형별 결정요인 분석 (The Determinants of Greenfield and M&A Foreign Direct Investment).
English Abstract: Along with the rapid process of trade liberalization, developed and developing countries began to put forth a multilateral effort into promoting foreign direct investment (FDI) for the purpose of capital inflows, technology transfer, and job creation. By implementing FDI promotion policies such as providing investment incentives and lowering investment barriers, global FDI inflows have increased constantly over time. In case of Korea, the size of FDI inflows and number of foreign invested companies dramatically increased after the government implemented foreign investment promotion policy to overcome the Asian financial crisis in 1998 and reached its highest peak in 2014.
