Technological Innovation and Hydraulic Engineering

摘要: Technology is faced with an expanding universe of demands, in a situation which capital, facilities, and manpower are limited, can be expected to increasingly so the future. Under these conditions, it becomes imperative for field hydraulic engineering—as any engineering general—to acquire clear view factors affecting technological innovation that field. Some principal sociotechnological reviewed, particular emphasis on paradigms assessing nature innovative process, indices innovation, need input-output matrices, implications such matrices research, educational professional processes engineering, sociology field, science policy enhanced individual creativity. Since mature technology, achievement given rate growth capabilities likely require much higher technical knowledge. This may represent major bottleneck future innovations
