  • Rethinking Knowledge Production in University Research Teams

    Open Access•Zhe Cheng, Xuan Liu et al.•ARTICLE•European Journal of Education•2026

    This study examines how configurations of intellectual capital shape knowledge production in university research teams. Using a dataset of Chinese engineering research teams (2017–2021), we find that intellectual capital affects research productivity and influence in distinct ways. Human capital shows nonlinearity: an optimal mix of core and backbone members is associated with higher output and impact. Structural capital exhibits trade‐offs: topi…

  • What drives the development of university science parks in China

    Open Access•Yixin Zhu, Zhe Cheng•ARTICLE•Humanities and Social Sciences…•2025

    University science parks are an important arena and driver for science and technology innovation and development. In this study, we developed the theoretical framework for evolutionary economic geography, which considers the agglomeration effect, path dependence, spin-off process, and local institutions.
