Asset-light operation strategy for car-sharing model with vertical shareholding: financial leasing or instalment factoring

Supply chain finance is an important way of realising the transformation of the asset-heavy operation mode in car-sharing services to an asset-light operation mode, by transforming the ownership cost into a variable cost. This study considers a service supply chain with vertical shareholding comprising a vehicle manufacturer and a car-sharing operator; further, it establishes financing decision-making models under financial leasing (FL) and instalment factoring finance (IFF) and explores the impact of profitability and shareholding ratios on FL and IFF. The results how that service profitability has a fundamental influence on financing decisions. The pooling effect and service satisfaction rate affect ownership costs and rental income, respectively. In turn, these factors jointly affect the choice of financing strategy. Moreover, there is a threshold of financing strategy choice related to the shareholding ratio: a large shareholding ratio means IFF is optimal, while when the ratio is low, FL is optimal. Finally, under certain conditions, a composite contract with revenue sharing and linear transfer payment for the optimal financing strategies can be adopted to improve supply chain performance. This study thus provides effective strategies for realising asset-light operation in car sharing by transforming ownership cost into variable cost.</p

Color-Tunable, Spectra-Stable Flexible White Top-Emitting Organic Light-Emitting Devices Based on Alternating Current Driven and Dual-Microcavity Technology

White top-emitting organic light-emitting diodes (TOLEDs) are attractive due to their freedom of choice in substrates. However, tunable color and stable spectra for white TOLED remain considerable challenges. Here, we conceive a novel, in-planar-electrodes, dual-microcavity OLED driven by alternating current signals to build white TOLEDs. Consequently, the microcavity effect in the dual-microcavity OLED can be separately optimized for blue and yellow emissive units. The color temperature of the device also can be adjusted by using alternating current signals. We finally achieve color-tunable, spectra-stable, flexible, white TOLEDs on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate and paper substrate. This work will be beneficial to the further development of white, top-emitting devices, even including quantum dots LEDs and perovskite LEDs

Table1_The deformation mechanism in the western Qiangtang terrane and its surroundings: evidence from magnetotelluric data.docx

Located in the central part of the Tibetan Plateau, the Qiangtang terrane preserves important record of the uplift and deformation history of the Plateau, and therefore remains an attractive area of research. However, deep geophysical investigations of its western part are still limited. To further understand the deep structure of the western Qiangtang terrane and its surroundings, we use magnetotelluric array data to generate a 3D electrical structure. It reveals high resistivity anomalies in the upper crust and scattered high conductivity anomalies in the mid-lower crust. The electrical structure also suggests that the Longmu Co-Gozha Co fault once believed to be a major regional deformation boundary, may not have cut through the crust. The melt content and rheological parameters derived from the electrical structures show dominant ductile-type deformation in most of the study area, which contributes to block extrusion along the slip faults. Viscous deformation regions formed by mantle melt upwelling in the mid-lower crust may contribute to the formation of the N-S directed normal faults on the surface.</p

Presentation1_3-D electrical structure and tectonic dynamics in the Yangbajing area based on the array magnetotelluric data.pdf

The well-known N-S-trending fault in the Yangbajing area plays a crucial role in the tectonic evolution of the Tibetan Plateau. Previous researches on a few E-W geophysical profiles suggested that the eastern shear at the base of the upper crust and/or lithosphere deformation brought on by asthenosphere upwelling are the major causes of the Yadong-Gulu rift’s creation. Here we propose a 3-D electrical resistivity model derived from the magnetotelluric (MT) array data spanning the Yadong-Gulu rift (YGR), and the distribution of temperature and melt fraction is estimated by the experimental calibrated relationships bridging electrical conductivity and temperature/melt fraction. The result reveals that the Indian slab subducted steeply in the east of the Yadong-Gulu rift, while Indian slab may have delaminated with a flat subduction angle in the west. The temperature distribution shows that the upper mantle of the northern Lhasa terrane is hotter than that of the southern Lhasa terrane. This is likely the result of mantle upwelling caused by either the subduction of the Indian slab or thickened Tibetan lithosphere delamination. Moreover, the strength of the mid-lower crust is so low that it may meet the conditions of the local crust flow in the west-east direction. The local crustal flow and the pulling force from the upwelling asthenosphere jointly contributed to the formation of the Yadong-Gulu rift. These main factors exist in different stages of the evolution of the Yadong-Gulu rift.</p
