“…Consumers with low involvement are unable to reach higher levels of abstraction and generate simpler HVMs, while consumers highly involved with the product/service provide richer data, achieve higher levels of abstractions and produce more multi-sided HVMs. These topics are in their turn interrelated with discussions about 'feel' (high-involvement) and 'think' (low-involvement) products (Huber, Beckmann, and Herrmann, 2004); and symbolic vs. functional values/meanings (Mort and Rose, 2004;Boztepe, 2007;Lind, 2007;Yang and Chang, 2012;Brito and Formoso, 2014;Lai, Chong, Ismail, and Tong, 2014;Jung and Pawlowski, 2014;Li, 2015;Borgardt, 2018).…”

This study provides the first critical and systematic investigation of the literature on Means-End Chain theory after the groundbreaking book "Understanding Consumer Decision Making: The Means-End Approach to Marketing and Advertising Strategy" by Olson and Reynolds (2001). The sample of 157 articles published in the Science Direct, Emerald, and Wiley databases was investigated. The period covers scientific literature published from 2001 to 2018. The paper shows the main theoretical concepts, methodological approaches, research problems, and findings. The results of the literature review demonstrate that the Means-End Chain theory is an evolving area of research and is gaining importance in academia and management. Some important gaps in the knowledge of theoretical and methodological levels were identified, and the most important directions for further studies were proposed.

“…Furthermore, the fast-developing research on 3D-printed DDD has allowed us to identify several difficulties in the evolution and promotion of tailored DDD systems. The creation of DDD prototypes with varied levels of complexity Basic butylated methacrylate copolymer, ethanol [29] made feasible by 3D printing demonstrates the feasibility of customizing pharmaceutical goods. Future printing technologies have the potential to enhance patient-specific medication therapy.…”

As a recently developing technology, three-dimensional (3D) printing has a lot of potential in the pharmaceutical sector and can cater patients and the pharmaceutical industry with innovative approaches. This technology allows for the accurate creation of dosage forms, which can help with drug product design. It also facilitates treatment for patients, such as individualized dosing, which can be used to treat particular disease states or patient groups. New approaches and techniques for creating unique medication delivery systems are made possible by the evolution of 3D techniques. The use of 3D printing technologies in the pharmaceutical industry is outlined in this paper, with special consideration devoted to the benefits of these technologies for attaining quick medication delivery, personalized drug delivery, compound drug delivery, and customizable drug delivery. This article also demonstrates the history, advantages, prospects, applications, constraints, and difficulties of 3D printing techniques in the area of developing pharmaceutical formulations. Pharmaceutical manufacturing is only one of many industries where the 3D printing (3DP) technique has had an important impact since its introduction in the early 1980s. Researchers and the public are becoming more interested in creating customized or individualized dosage forms as a result of the shifting horizons. The current work validates the viability of volumetric 3DP for quickly printing pharmaceutical items. This novel technology can enable the quick, on-demand manufacture of pharmaceuticals and medical equipment with further optimization.

“…Sociology and other works and literature, he specifically elaborated the scope of the engineering community and the ethical responsibility; Zhang Zhiyun et al focused on the composition and characteristics of the engineering community; Li Sanhu analyzed the division of labor and cooperation among members of the engineering community in engineering activities; Zhang Hengli, Hu Xinhe et al discussed engineering ethics and its influence on the behaviors of community members. Looking back on domestic researches, the ethics and responsibilities of the engineering community have been extensively discussed [7,8,9]. However, they are confined to the analysis of the external ethical responsibilities of the engineering community, but have fewer discussions on internal ethics and interactive game.…”

Engineering ethics is a system of ethical principles applied to engineering, which plays the role of value guidance and criterion evaluation in engineering construction activities. Based on engineering ethics, writers review the Sanmenxia Reservoir Project, and use system dynamics to systematically study the evolutionary game of engineering community members, including government, enterprise, and people, involved in the engineering activities. The results show that the engineering community is a heterogeneous community with complex game behaviors, and the correct ethical choice is the key factor that promotes the evolution of the community members to cooperative dynamic equilibrium. Good management of ethical commitment, emphasis on professionalism and public services, strengthening risk alert and avoidance are effective ways for members of the engineering community to form a cooperative game, avoid tragedy of public resources, and ultimately ensure the orderly development of projects.
