Industrial Clusters
in Local and Regional Economies: A
Post Porter Approach to the Identification and Evaluation of Clusters in by Helen McGrath In
a departure from the predominantly Porter (1990; 1998) influenced cluster
studies that were performed on Irish manufacturing throughout the 1990s
i.e. studies which examined primarily market based relationships in the
national context, this book focuses on local and regional industry
concentrations and the nature of inter-firm relationships within those
concentrations. Underpinning this approach is a broad theoretical
framework that combines three streams of related literature: industrial
districts, Porter's clusters and regional systems of innovation. Book details: Price: €60.00 / STG £55.00 / $85.00 Binding: pb Pages: 240 Size:

Practical Stress Analysis with Finite Elements by
Practical
Stress Analysis with Finite Elements is an ideal introductory text for
newcomers to finite element analysis who wish to learn how to use FEA.
Unlike many other books which claim to be at an introductory level, this
book does not weigh the reader down with theory but rather provides the
minimum amount of theory needed to understand how to practically perform
an analysis using a finite element analysis software package. Newcomers to
FEA generally want to learn how to apply FEA to their particular problem
and consequently the emphasis of this book is on practical FE procedures.
The information in this book is an invaluable guide and reference for both
undergraduate and postgraduate engineering students and for practicing
engineers. For
