  text: On an intermediate goods market we consider vertical and horizontal product
    differentiation and analyze the impact of simultaneous competition for resources
    and the demand of customers on the market outcome. Asymmetries between intermediaries
    may arise due to distinct product qualities as well as by reasons of different
    production technologies. The intermediaries compete on the output market by choosing
    production quantities sequentially and for the supplies of a monopolistic input
    supplier on the input market. It turns out that there exist differences in product
    quality and productivities such that an intermediary being the Stackelberg leader
    has no incentive to procure inputs, whereas in the role of the Stackelberg follower
    will participate in the market. Moreover, we find that given an intermediary is
    more competitive, his equilibrium output quantity is higher when being the leader
    than when being the follower. Interestingly, if the intermediary is less competitive
    and goods are complements, there may exist asymmetries such that an intermediary
    being in the position of the Stackelberg follower offers higher output quantities
    in equilibrium than when being in the position of the Stackelberg leader.

  text: We examine whether the mandated introduction of International Financial Reporting
    Standards (IFRS) is associated with the propensity to access the public rather
    than private debt market and the cost of debt. We use a global sample of public
    bonds and private loans and find that mandatory IFRS adopters are more likely,
    post-IFRS, to issue bonds than to borrow privately. We also find that mandatory
    IFRS adopters pay lower bond yield spreads, but not lower loan spreads, after
    the mandate. These findings are consistent with debt providers responding positively
    to financial reporting of higher quality and comparability, but only when there
    is a greater reliance on publicly available financial statements than private
    communication. Lastly, we document that the observed debt market benefits are
    concentrated in countries with larger differences between domestic GAAP and IFRS
    and are present even for EU countries that did not experience concurrent financial
    reporting enforcement or other institutional reforms. Overall, our study documents
    positive economic consequences around the mandated IFRS adoption for corporate
    debt financing and, in particular, for bond financing.

  text: In order to increase mechanical strength, heat dissipation and ampacity and
    to decrease failure through fatigue fracture, wedge copper wire bonding is being
    introduced as a standard interconnection method for mass production. To achieve
    the same process stability when using copper wire instead of aluminum wire a profound
    understanding of the bonding process is needed. Due to the higher hardness of
    copper compared to aluminum wire it is more difficult to approach the surfaces
    of wire and substrate to a level where van der Waals forces are able to arise
    between atoms. Also, enough friction energy referred to the total contact area
    has to be generated to activate the surfaces. Therefore, a friction model is used
    to simulate the joining process. This model calculates the resulting energy of
    partial areas in the contact surface and provides information about the adhesion
    process of each area. The focus here is on the arising of micro joints in the
    contact area depending on the location in the contact and time. To validate the
    model, different touchdown forces are used to vary the initial contact areas of
    wire and substrate. Additionally, a piezoelectric tri-axial force sensor is built
    up to identify the known phases of pre-deforming, cleaning, adhering and diffusing
    for the real bonding process to map with the model. Test substrates as DBC and
    copper plate are used to show the different formations of a wedge bond connection
    due to hardness and reaction propensity. The experiments were done by using 500
    $\mu$m copper wire and a standard V-groove tool.

  text: (K,Na)NbO3 ceramics have attracted much attention as lead-free piezoelectric
    materials with high piezoelectric properties. High-quality (K,Na)NbO3 ceramics
    can be sintered using KNbO3 and NaNbO3 powders synthesized by a hydrothermal method.
    In this study, to enhance the quality factor of the ceramics, high-power ultrasonic
    irradiation was employed during the hydrothermal method, which led to a reduction
    in the particle size of the resultant powders.

  text: A model approach for wedge/wedge bonding copper wire is presented. The connection
    between wire and substrate is based on a variety of physical effects, but the
    dominant one is the friction based welding while applying ultrasound. Consequently,
    a friction model was used to investigate the welding process. This model is built
    up universal and can be used to describe the formation of micro welds in the time
    variant contact area between wire and substrate. Aim of the model is to identify
    the interactions between touchdown, bond normal force, ultrasonic power and bonding
    time. To do so, the contact area is discretized into partial areas where a Point
    Contact Model is applied. Based on this approach it is possible to simulate micro
    and macro slip inside the contact area between wire and substrate. The work done
    by friction force is a main criterion to define occurring micro joints which influence
    the subsequent welding.

  text: Employing a Hausman–Taylor instrument variable (HT–IV) estimator to data from
    558 microfinance institutions (MFIs) in 80 developing countries for the period
    from 2002 to 2007, this paper provides empirical evidence for a positive impact
    of a country's external governance quality and outcome on local microbanks' economic
    success in terms of profitability and sustainability. Evidence as well suggests
    a negative relationship between external governance and the microbanks' social
    success measured by the depth of outreach. In this context, our analysis reveals
    that a country's political stability, governance effectiveness, regulatory quality
    and rule of law are significant key elements of external governance affecting
    the MFIs' functional performance. Moreover, results from sensitivity analyses
    indicate that the relationship between external governance quality and microfinance
    functional performance significantly depends on the microbanks' business concepts,
    their lending methodologies and sources of funding.

    the assessment of supervisory quality among German banks in 2010. In particular,
    it is analyzed if and how supervised banks’ perception of the quality of supervisory
    authorities and their instruments has changed due to the financial crisis starting
    in mid-2007. Subsequently, results from the recent survey are compared with findings

  text: 'The successful implementation of a harmonised regulatory framework for the
    global banking system is still a long way off. This mainly results from (a) different
    traditions in banking regulation and supervision at the national level, (b) different
    national emphases on regulatory sub-goals such as efficiency or the protection
    and promotion of national financial markets, and (c) different institutional settings
    and conditions. In this context, studies on the banking industry''s assessment
    of supervisory processes and instruments highlight how effectively and efficiently
    individual nation states are implementing international frameworks such as Basel
    II and the Capital Requirements Directive for Europe. In November 2005, the German
    Government commissioned an evaluation of the supervisory processes and instruments
    of the country''s banking authorities, BaFin and Bundesbank. The study aimed to
    determine the options for further optimising supervision, reducing regulatory
    burden and bureaucracy, and otherwise restricting supervision. This paper presents
    the most important findings from the survey, analyses significant differences
    in assessments given by various banking groups, empirically evaluates significant
    drivers of banks'' overall satisfaction with banking supervision, and drafts proposals
    for improving banking regulation and supervision in Germany. Finally, aspects
    of further research are discussed. '

    of life quality as an aim of societal development. In particular three crucial
    shifts in the politics of QoL - its ''individualisation'', its ''informalisation''
    and its ''culturalisation'' - and their implications for Social Work are critically
    examined theoretically and empirically referring to the results of an own community-study.
    The paper concludes with an alternative suggestion reflecting the idea of an ''autonomy-based''
    approach of democratic equality. '
