AbstractThis study examines communication in a system of inter-firm networks and the dynamics of knowledge transfer within such networks. The guest engineer system that was widely adopted in the Japanese automotive industry following the Second World War is the focus of this study. Significant positive effects of common knowledge shared by the firms involved, a constructive role of individuals as conveyors of information, and increased productivity and human capital gains are found to result from inter-firm network communication in the context of the Japanese automotive industry.

Light weight materials which possess high strength and durability are being utilized by the automotive industry to increase fuel economy. Rapidly solidified (RS) Al alloys are currently being extensively studied for this purpose. In this investigation the microstructure of an extruded Al-8Fe-2Mo alloy, produced by Pratt & Whitney Aircraft, Goverment Products Div. was examined in a JE0L 2000FX AEM. Both electropolished thin sections, and extraction replicas were examined to characterize this material. The consolidation procedure for producing this material included a 9:1 extrusion at 340°C followed by a 16:1 extrusion at 400°C, utilizing RS powders which have also been characterized utilizing electron microscopy.
