Because of its unique combination of cost and performance, DMMC is likely to be appropriate for applications in many manufacturing industries. Several all-terrain bicycle (ATB) applications are presently being commercialized. This thesis focuses on the policy Duralcan should follow to market DMMCs to the manufacturers of ATB applications. More specifically, the thesis identifies the combination of performance and price that Duralcan has to offer before DMMC is incorporated into designs for ATB frames, disc brake rotors, and wheel rims. -

URBANIZATION For the first time in human history, more people are living in cities than in the rural areas, and the rate of urbanization is increasing. In 1950, the world had just 2 “megacities” with populations in excess of 10 million. Today, there are at least 20. There are over 200 cities in China with a population over one million. The United Nations estimates that about 180,000 people are added to the urban population every day. By 2050, an estimated two-thirds of the world’s population will live in urban areas. 4. ENVIRONMENT Emissions from cars far outweighs that from power plants. Vehicles contribute to an estimated 60-70% of urban air pollution. -
How Does the Need for Post-Purchase Services Affect The
How Does the Need for Post-Purchase Services Affect the Digital Transformation of Value Systems? Student: A.J. Hartman Student Number: S2561646 Supervisor: T.L.J. Broekhuizen Co-assessor: P.J. Steinberg Date: 02 March 2020 Word Count: 13636 Abstract The impact of digitalisation on value systems has received much attention from business scholars. Nevertheless, little is known about how digitalisation transforms value systems for physical products that require post-purchase services (PPSs) like product commissioning and repair service. Such services are traditionally offered by physical dealers and may strengthen their position, thus affect the digital transformation of value systems. By conducting a case study in the Dutch bicycle market, this study sheds new light on how digital transformation of value systems is affected by PPSs. Findings show that when there is a sufficient need for PPSs, incumbent intermediaries can use PPS resources to protect themselves against disintermediation. Furthermore, findings contradict the prevailing view that digital transformation is a one-way process. Findings evidentially portrait the digital transformation of value systems as a dynamic process; the extent to which activities in value systems are digitized can increase and decrease. Moreover, findings show that a high need for PPSs offers a temporal protection against digital disruption. Keywords: Activity redistribution, digital disruption, digital transformation, (dis)intermediation, post- purchase services, value systems reconfiguration, vertical -

Travel Oregon provided oversight for the project and valuable review and recommendations throughout. In addition, several organizations provided valuable support of the data collection process, including the Bicycle Transportation Alliance, Oregon Bicycle Constructors Association, Oregon Bicycle Racing Association and the Portland Transportation Bureau. Our special thanks also goes out to the many shops, manufacturers and other members of the bicycle industry that provided the data necessary to complete the research. Summary Bicycling and the bicycle industry are iconic in Oregon, representing a unique aspect of the state’s identity and economy. Because many bicycle industry businesses are small, and government statistics include bicycle manufacturing and other businesses only as part of larger categories, specific industry information is limited. -

ECONOMIC CONTRIBUTION of the BICYCLE INDUSTRY in MINNESOTA Total Economic Contribution Is Comprised of Three Parts - Direct, Indirect, and Induced Effects
ECONOMIC CONTRIBUTION OF THE BICYCLE INDUSTRY IN MINNESOTA Total economic contribution is comprised of three parts - direct, indirect, and induced effects. This report explains each of these components and how they were measured to calculate the economic contribution of the bicycle industry in Minnesota for Task 4 of this project. The bicycle industry in Minnesota has three main components – retailers, wholesalers and manufacturers, and advocacy groups. Retailers, in this study, include businesses selling new or used bicycles, those selling bicycle parts and accessories, businesses providing bicycle repair services, and businesses providing bicycle rentals. Several types of retailers are involved in the bicycle industry, including bicycle specialty retailers, general sporting goods retailers, discount department store retailers, warehouse and supercenter stores, and general merchandise stores. Wholesalers and manufacturers included in this study make or wholesale bicycles, bicycle parts, and accessories related to bicycling (including clothing, trailers, and bike racks). Advocacy groups are organizations that support and promote bicycling in the state. Of note here is the definition of the bicycling industry. This task is focused on the industry as defined in the above paragraph. Another task of this project will measure the tourism-related impacts of bicycling in Minnesota, specifically those related to bicycling events held in Minnesota. Direct Effect of the Bicycle Industry For the bicycle industry, direct effect is equal to bicycle-related operational and capital improvement expenditures by the businesses and organizations in each of the categories. Direct effect is measured in economic output, employment, and labor income. The initial step of an economic contribution analysis is to quantify each of these direct effects for the industry. -
