    In the title compound, C19H18O6, also known as 3,4′,5,7-tetra­methoxy­flavone, the dihedral angle between the benzopyran-4-one group and the attached benzene ring is 11.23 (8)°. An intra­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bond generates an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked into a two-dimensional network parallel to (01) by inter­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which generate R 4 4(20), R 4 4(12) and R 2 2(14) ring motifs. Adjacent networks interact by π–π inter­actions between the pyran ring and its methoxy­phenyl substituent [centroid–centroid distance = 3.5267 (8) Å]

    The role of science parks in promoting and supporting tenant firms to be innovative and competitive with particular reference to the case of Thailand

    There is a growing policy need in many countries for improvements in the innovativeness and competitiveness of business enterprises. This is reflected in a recent shift of emphasis from resource-based growth to knowledge-based growth. One result of this policy trend has been growth in the belief that science and technology park projects can provide a vehicle for the emergence of innovative enterprises and for the implementation of the triple helix innovation system – the engagement among government, universities, and industry. In Thailand, this prompted the establishment of science parks, with the first regional science park, the Northern Thailand Science Park (NSP), launched in 2018. What is unclear – and what has yet to be probed – is how such policy initiatives have helped promote the development of innovative and competitive enterprises, and why some firms choose to be located within these science parks. In this thesis, these questions are explored, based on the combined experiences of 22 tenant firms in the NSP through a questionnaire-based survey and face to-face interviews using quantitative and quantitative methods. In this study, the provision of space, utility and facilities is found to be what matters most for the majority of tenant firms who decide to join the NSP by creating an eco-system that encourages tenants to support each other by sharing knowledge and experiences, which can result in new ideas and the emergence of venture companies. Firms agreed the services they received from the NSP were helpful in achieving better results in terms of innovative and competitive performance than would be the case if they had not joined the park. In the longer term, firms believe that the NSP can incubate and continue to support them as they evolve as competitive enterprises. It is also found that the science parks respond to the learning needs of younger start-up firms, supported by firms that have been long in residence in the park. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are found to be more likely than larger and/or older enterprises to develop innovative inputs. This study also finds that the provision of infrastructure and facility (INFA) and prospecting of market opportunities (MAOP) by the park have significant positive influence on the expected innovative performance/ innovative output of tenant firms. On the basis of findings of this study, bolstered by the experiences across other countries covered in the literature, it can be argued that science parks have an important role to play as intermediary agency integrating tenant firms into the triple helix system of innovation. This is supported by the results of both the quantitative and qualitative analyses of the survey data. The science park ecosystem – and its triple helix underpinning – provide favourable conditions for triggering interactions among tenant firms to learn from specialised knowledge and experiences that can be accessed via the science park platform as long as they are well managed.There is a growing policy need in many countries for improvements in the innovativeness and competitiveness of business enterprises.

    The outstanding geosites in Satun UNESCO Global Geopark, Thailand are mainly karst topography. Sinkhole which is originated from the dissolution of karst rocks by groundwater or acidic rainwater is one of the potential natural disasters in these geosites. To gain the confident among geotourism, detecting karst features, cavities and surficial dissolution is crucial in risk assessment and sustainable geopark management. As a part of geohazard assessment, non-invasive geophysical methods were applied for detecting near-surface defects and karst features. In this study, electrical resistivity tomography (ERT), seismic tomography and multichannel analysis of surface waves (MASW) have been integrated to understand the mechanism of an existing sinkhole formation in Satun Geopark region. ERT appeared to be an effective approach to investigate the cavity development at shallow subsurface. MASW and seismic tomography were combined to help constrain the interpretation of lithology and karst features in vicinity of the sinkhole. The results indicated that the sinkhole occurrence in this area was probably developed by forming of cavity due to an increased dissolution of the fractured limestone bedrock. This carbonate layer is in contact with the overlying groundwater and weathering shale or cohesive soil layer. The changing of water table and infiltration of surface water by heavy rainfall allowed for a sudden vertical downward of overlying sediments into the empty voids, leading to the sinkhole hazard

    Get PDF
    The main purpose of the currents study is to explore the nexus knowledge management, product innovation, and process innovation as antecedents of sports manufacturing firms of Thailand In order to analyse the relation of operational performance and knowledge management processes, a theoretical framework has been developed through innovation of product and processes in the manufacturing companies of Jordan. Based on this research, it was revealed that there is a significant and positive influence of knowledge management on both innovation types (innovation of product and processes). When innovation is considered as a competitive strategy by the manufacturing companies, they are required to start knowledge management program for supporting innovation. It has been indicated by the research findings that the innovation of process influences the operational efficiency in a positive way. However, innovation of product does not create an influence. There is need for the companies to focus on the innovation process, which aim to improve their operational performance. The study has used survey-based methodology and SEM-PLS is employed to analyse the data. This contributes to the improvements in quality, reduction of cost, and upgrading of response. Innovation of product can result in various benefits along with operational performance of the organization
