Exploring the Impacts of Technological Innovation on Industrial Structural Transformation: An Analysis Based on the Schumpeterian Endogenous Growth Theory

Based on Joseph Schumpeter’s theory of“creative destruction,”we constructed a multi-sectoral endogenous growth model that integrates the agriculture,manufacturing,and service sectors.Employing numerical simulation,we investigated the dynamic influence of technological innovation on the industrial structural transformation in two key aspects:the level of innovation and the research and development(R&D)efficiency within industries.Our findings indicate that technological innovation plays a pivotal role in advancing industrial structural transformation.Enhancements in both the level of innovation and R&D efficiency within industries are instrumental in fostering industrial structural transformation.Specifically,the enhancements in the level of innovation or R&D efficiency within the agricultural sector hasten its transition toward the manufacturing sector,while such enhancement within the manufacturing sector expedites its transition toward the service sector.However,such enhancements within the service sector tend to decelerate the transition from manufacturing to service.In light of this,it is essential to harness technological innovation to enhance the level of innovation and R&D efficiency in industries to facilitate the transition of traditional industries into high-value-added and emerging ones.Meanwhile,tailored technological innovation strategies should be implemented to boost a balanced industrial structural transformation within industries.

Spatial-temporal Heterogeneity of Industrial Structure Transformation and Carbon Emission Effects in Xuzhou Metropolitan Area

Employing decoupling index and industrial structure characteristic bias index methods, this study analyzed the spatial-temporal characteristics of industrial structure transformations and their resulting carbon emissions in the Xuzhou Metropolitan Area from 2000 to 2014, with a focus on their relationships and driving factors. Our research indicates that carbon emission intensity from industrial structures in the Xuzhou Metropolitan Area at first showed an increasing trend, which then decreased. Furthermore, the relationship between emissions and industrial economic growth has been trending toward absolute decoupling. From the perspective of the center-periphery, the Xuzhou Metropolitan Area formed a concentric pattern, where both progress towards low emissions and the level of technological advancement gradually diminished from the center to the periphery. In terms of variation across provinces, the ISCB index in the eastern Henan has decreased the slowest, followed by the southern Shandong and the northern Anhui, with the northern Jiangsu ranking last. During this period, resource-and labor-intensive industries were the primary growth industries in the northern Anhui and the eastern Henan, while labor-intensive industries dominated the southern Shandong and capital-intensive industries dominated the northern Jiangsu. In terms of city types, the spatial pattern for industrial structure indicates that recession resource-based cities had higher carbon emission intensities than mature resource-based cities, followed by non-resource-based cities and regenerative resource-based cities. Generally, the industrial structure in the Xuzhou Metropolitan Area has transformed from being resource-intensive to capital-intensive, and has been trending toward technology-intensive as resource availability has been exploited to exhaustion and then been regenerated. Industrial structure has been the leading factor causing heterogeneity of carbon emission intensities between metropolitan cities. Therefore, the key to optimizing the industrial structure and layout of metropolitan areas is to promote industrial structure transformation and improve the system controlling collaborative industrial development between cities.

Effectiveness of Land Use Structure Evolution to Industrial Structure Transformation

Scarcity of land resources and transformation of industrial structure is a pair of contradictory elements.We derive the characteristics of land use structure and industrial structure transformation in Xining City using Transformation Coefficient(TC):first,in the period 1999-2000,the land use structure coefficient(θ1) declined by 79.55%,but the overall evolution trend is gentle;second,the transformation coefficient of industrial structure(θ2) tended to decline ceaselessly on the whole,a decrease of 36.09%(overall,the transformation coefficient of industrial structure is slightly greater than the land use structure coefficient);third,the inter-annual variation of the two experienced ups and downs(in the period 1999-2007,the inter-annual variation was great and in the period 2008-2010,the inter-annual variation tended to be gentle).On the basis of autocorrelation and co-integration model,we draw the following conclusions through analysis:first,the land use structure in Xining City plays a role in promoting industrial structure transformation;second,there is a long-term equilibrium relationship between the two.Finally,relevant policy recommendations are put forward for the industrial development in Xining City.

Low-carbon transformation of industrial structure in China

The traditional economic growth mode of "three highs and one low(high input, high consumption, high pollution and low effi ciency)" makes China get the achievements of economic development and prosperity during the reform and opening up with more than 30 years, but behind this extensive mode of economic growth is excessive consumption of natural resources and a lot of greenhouse gases emissions, this not only limits the growth rate of China's economy, but makes a tremendous negative impact on the environment which is diffi cult for us to survive. Therefore, realizing industrial structure low-carbon effectively and developing a low-carbon economy characterized by "low-power, low consumption, low pollution and low emissions", become China's new target selection to transform economic development mode and realize the goal of optimization and upgrading of industrial structure and sustainable development.

INDUSTRIAL TRANSFORMATION OF SHENYANG CITY

Industrial transformation represents a unique economic phenomenon in China’s regional economy, and old industrial city reconstruction has long been a key problem that affects state security. As a typical old industrial city in China, Shenyang established its heavy industrial city position in the First Five-year Plan period(1953-1957), and this industrial structure has been consolidated for a long time. After 1978, Shenyang began its long lasting industrial reconstruction in an all-round way by 3 main initiatives including restructuring economic system, upgrading traditional industrial technology and developing high-tech industry. In the end of the 1990s, it could be identified that remarkable structural changes took place in city economy at large as well as individual industrial sector. According to the GDP proportion change, Shenyang is on the way to a high level industrial structure. The secondary industry also engendered significant shifting as smelting and textile industry declined sharply but IT industry increased largely. Although the ratio of the heavy industry to the light industry changed periodically, the heavy industrial output value most time kept a high proportion over 60% of the gross industrial output value in the past five decades. Shenyang has favorable conditions for developing equipment manufacturing industry, but it should carry out the program by establishing its leading role in urban economy plan, building "Theme Industrial Parks", improving Tiexi Industrial Zone, removing any kind of system barrier, enlarging private and other ownerships economy and improving technology, marketing and management by IT application. In response to economy globalization, Shenyang needs to expand the cooperation worldwide and improve the cohesion with surrounding cities.

Air pollution effects of industrial transformation in the Yangtze River Delta from the perspective of spatial spillover

The Yangtze River Delta(YRD) is a region in China with a serious contradiction between economic growth and environmental pollution. Exploring the spatiotemporal effects and influencing factors of air pollution in the region is highly important for formulating policies to promote the high-quality development of urban industries. This study uses the spatial Durbin model(SDM) to analyze the local direct and spatial spillover effects of industrial transformation on air pollution and quantifies the contribution of each factor. From 2008 to 2018, there was a significant spatial agglomeration of industrial sulfur dioxide emissions(ISDE) in the YRD, and every 1% increase in ISDE led to a synchronous increase of 0.603% in the ISDE in adjacent cities. The industrial scale index(ISCI) and industrial structure index(ISTI), as the core factors of industrial transformation, significantly affect the emissions of sulfur dioxide in the YRD, and the elastic coefficients are 0.677 and-0.368, respectively. The order of the direct effect of the explanatory variables on local ISDE is ISCI>ISTI>foreign direct investment(FDI)>enterprise technological innovation(ETI)>environmental regulation(ER)> per capita GDP(PGDP). Similarly, the order of the spatial spillover effect of all variables on ISDE in adjacent cities is ISCI>PGDP>FDI>ETI>ISTI>ER, and the coefficients of the ISCI and ISTI are 1.531 and 0.113, respectively. This study contributes to the existing research that verifies the environmental Kuznets curve in the YRD, denies the pollution heaven hypothesis, indicates the Porter hypothesis, and provides empirical evidence for the formation mechanism of regional environmental pollution from a spatial spillover perspective.

What is the Industrial Structure Changes of China?

Although China has made great achievements in economic scale,the model of high-quality economic developments is still in the exploratory stage.A series problems,such as unreasonable industrial structure and low production effciency,need to be resolved urgently.The transformation and upgrading of industrial structure is the inevitable choice.The analysis of industrial relations is an important method to reveal the internal mechanism of industrial structure change.Therefore,based on the concepts of sensitivity and influence coeffcient,this paper proposed the concepts of driven and driving coeffcient,and constructed the industrial complex networks of China from 1999 to 2013 according to the EORA input-output table.From the perspectives of the interaction power,industrial linkages and community structure,this paper systematically analyzes the evolution of China’s industrial structure.Results show that China’s industrial structure is undergoing a transformation from industry-oriented to industry-service-oriented.The interaction linkages between industries has formed a robust association structure.The traditional sectors such as infrastructure construction and industries are still the largest consumer group driving the development of other industries.Besides,light industry,infrastructure construction and finance have become increasingly important hub industries in the industrial system.However,some unbalanced community structures are formed in the economic system,which has resulted in a waste of resources and low production effciency to a certain extent.Effectively grasping the relationship between China’s industrial structure evolution and its association is conducive to formulating economic restructuring policies,promoting the upgrading of China’s economic and,realizing the leap from quantitative change to qualitative change.

Formation and crystallization of Zr-Ni-Ti metallic glass

The metallic Zr65Ni25Ti10（mole fraction, %） glass has been fabricated by a single roller melt-spinning method. The glass forming ability（GFA） and thermal stability of the Zr65Ni25Ti10 melt-spun ribbons were investigated by using X-ray diffraction（XRD） and differential scanning calorimetry（DSC） in the mode of continuous heating. It is shown that the reduced glass transition temperature (Trg) is 0.506 and the supercooled liquid region （ΔTx） is 30 K. Two exothermic peaks were observed in the DSC curves of the as-quenched ribbon, which indicates that the crystallization process undergoes two different stages. The phase transformation during the isothermal annealing was investigated by X-ray diffraction（XRD） and transmission electronic microscope（TEM）. It is observed that the metastable FCC Zr2Ni（Fd3m, a=12.27 ） precipitated while annealing in the suppercooled region（615 K） and the stable BCT Zr2Ni（I4/mcm, a=6.499 , c=5.270 ） precipitated while annealing at higher temperature（673 K or 723 K）. The crystallines are on nanoscale, with grain size of 1530 nm. The reason for the precipitation of the different structural Zr2Ni from the glassy matrix under different annealing conditions was discussed based on the concept of multi-component chemical short range order（MCSRO）.
