Emission Reduction Targets Between Strategy and Executive Compensation: Evidence on Symbolic and Substantive Adoption From German Listed Firms

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Firms increasingly commit to climate targets yet doubts remain about whether such pledges translate into substantive corporate governance or remain symbolic. The study examines how emission reduction targets (ERTs) in sustainability strategies are reflected in compensation among German listed firms.

Circular Economy in Food Supply Chains: Comprehending the Paradigm and Redefining Future Research Through a Multidisciplinary Review of Reviews

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The inefficiencies of the global food system necessitate a shift towards a circular economy (CE) in food supply chains (FSCs). While research on CE in FSCs spans multiple disciplines, it often remains siloed within respective disciplinary boundaries, limiting its practical impact.

Engineering an artificial trachea: Quantitative benchmarks and modular strategies for mechanics, epithelialization, and vascular integration

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
In this work, we first examine the limitations of surgical repair and stenting, including migration, granulation, mucus plugging, and infection. We then translate these failures into engineering constraints involving geometry, mechanics, fixation, degradation, junctional stress, and remodeling.

A construction and training data correction method for deep learning turbulence model of Reynolds averaged Navier–Stokes equations

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2022
This paper aims at proposing a data-driven Reynolds Averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) calculation model based on physically constrained deep learning. Using the standard k − ɛ model as the template, part of the source terms in the ɛ equation is replaced by ...

Ceramics for Aero-Engine Applications [PDF]

open access: yesVolume 5: Manufacturing Materials and Metallurgy; Ceramics; Structures and Dynamics; Controls, Diagnostics and Instrumentation; Education, 1992
In the general aero-engine development effort to significantly improve specific fuel consumption as well as thrust-to-weight ratios, ceramics have been under investigation since the mid-Seventies. Their great potential for increasing gas-turbine performance has resulted in a number of research programs worldwide to assess their desirability for static ...

Dynamic Analysis of Electrically Assisted Turbocharger Rotor Considering Contact Effects in Nut Structures

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rotor system of an electrically assisted turbocharger (EAT) is composed of multiple shaft components; The nonlinear connection and contact effects make it difficult to determine the system dynamic characteristics. To improve the modeling accuracy of EAT rotor system and evaluate the influence of contact between multi‐axis components and ...
