Features of the Triple Helix Model in Cross-Border Clusters
The article is aimed at discussing the unique characteristics of the “triple helix” model that are unveiled while applied to cross - border cluster studies. The results of the case study method of the best practice on cross - border cluster formation at the Baltic Sea region shows evidence of the doubling of the number of helices represented in a complex collaboration system. Major factors of the dynamics and the transformation of the cross-border cluster interactions are stated. The hypothesis of the “double triple helix” model is suggested and the illustration of the case study example of the “Medicon Valley” is given.
In this lecture we present an overview of some recent results on temporal and spatial structures in chemical systems far from equilibrium. We discuss experiments on multiple stationary states (bi- and tristabilities), hysteresis of unstable stationary states, limit cycles, generation of limit cycles by periodic external perturbations, regular and Hopf bifurcations, chemical fronts, time-independent spatial structures and periodic precipitation processes.
