Without Rachel's advice, and encouragement, it could not have started. I am very grateful to Professor Edward Laurance for his patience in teaching me research methodology as a way of life and the importance of "myth bursting". I shall never forget such valuable lessons. Extensive thanks to the second-reader. Professor Boger, who patiently waded through this enormous material. Thanks to Professor Tollefson who kindly shared with me a huge amount of material about Brazil. The list would be long if I had to cite all the persons who directly gave precious contribution and information. Embraer, the Aeronautics Ministry (especially the IFI/CTA), McDonnell Douglas, Helibras, and other companies had a special participation. A very special thanks goes to my wife, Solange, whose patience, hard work, and strong support made the Master's dream a reality. Thanks also to my little daughter, Caroline, who was wonderful in understanding my limitations of time and attention. Without their kisses and love I would not be able to go so far. Finally, this thesis is dedicated to the professional people in Brazilian government and industry who struggle daily to do their jobs, while balancing the benefits of technological innovation against the economic problems that a developing country has to confront. The search for a viable but streamlined national policy certainly is their dream. I. INTRODUCTION The hypothesis of this thesis is that technology is the main factor that motivates developing countries to require offset agreements for improving indigenous arms industries. Offsets are those arrangements made whereby recipient countries require compensation as a condition of purchase of military related exports, with the intention of creating benefits for the buyer.

Esta es una relación cronológica de todos los lanzamientos de satélites artificiales de nuestro planeta, con independencia de su éxito o fracaso, tanto en el disparo como en órbita. Significa pues que muchos de ellos no han alcanzado el espacio y fueron destruidos. Se señala en primer lugar (a la izquierda) su nombre, seguido de la fecha del lanzamiento, el país al que pertenece el satélite (que puede ser otro distinto al que lo lanza) y el tipo de satélite; este último aspecto podría no corresponderse en exactitud dado que algunos son de finalidad múltiple. En los lanzamientos múltiples, cada satélite figura separado (salvo en los casos de fracaso, en que no llegan a separarse) pero naturalmente en la misma fecha y juntos. NO ESTÁN incluidos los llevados en vuelos tripulados, si bien se citan en el programa de satélites correspondiente y en el capítulo de “Cronología general de lanzamientos”. .SATÉLITE Fecha País Tipo SPUTNIK F1 15.05.1957 URSS Experimental o tecnológico SPUTNIK F2 21.08.1957 URSS Experimental o tecnológico SPUTNIK 01 04.10.1957 URSS Experimental o tecnológico SPUTNIK 02 03.11.1957 URSS Científico VANGUARD-1A 06.12.1957 USA Experimental o tecnológico EXPLORER 01 31.01.1958 USA Científico VANGUARD-1B 05.02.1958 USA Experimental o tecnológico EXPLORER 02 05.03.1958 USA Científico VANGUARD-1 17.03.1958 USA Experimental o tecnológico EXPLORER 03 26.03.1958 USA Científico SPUTNIK D1 27.04.1958 URSS Geodésico VANGUARD-2A

  • GOVERNING MICRO-MOBILITY: a NATIONWIDE ASSESSMENT of ELECTRIC SCOOTER REGULATIONS --Manuscript Draft
    Transportation Research Record GOVERNING MICRO-MOBILITY: A NATIONWIDE ASSESSMENT OF ELECTRIC SCOOTER REGULATIONS --Manuscript Draft-- Full Title: GOVERNING MICRO-MOBILITY: A NATIONWIDE ASSESSMENT OF ELECTRIC SCOOTER REGULATIONS Abstract: The character of urban transportation and mobility is dramatically changing in part because of the explosive growth of shared-use modes (SUM) of travel such as ridesourcing bikesharing, carsharing and, more recently, electronic (e-)scooter-sharing. Although these new forms of mobility are freeing riders from mode- and ownership- constrained choices of travel, they are also creating tremendous uncertainty among planners and policymakers who are struggling to both understand and manage their potential impacts. Developing, adopting and enforcing regulations that aim to maximize transportation options while simultaneously ensuring public safety and the public good is proving to be a challenging task for municipal transportation planners given the rapid pace at which new systems of travel are evolving. Greater coordination between cities and the private and public sectors via the sharing of policy responses and transportation technology information will help facilitate collective learning and smoother transitions toward growing alternative transportation options in cities. Toward this end, the present paper draws from contemporary news articles, municipal and statewide policies and professional reports to provide timely guidance related to e- scooter sharing programs including information about vendors, vehicles,
