Which direction for sustainable development? A time series comparison of the impacts of redistributive versus market policies in Bolivia and South Korea [PDF]

Sustainable Development, Volume 31, Issue 5, Page 3408-3427, October 2023., 2023
Abstract This article examines two major policy frameworks for achieving sustainable development: the market‐based ‘Green Economy’ approach (exemplified by South Korea), and the redistributive ‘Living Well’ approach (exemplified by Bolivia). We compare the two paradigms in qualitative terms using document analysis, and we assess quantitatively how they

Mass Gatherings, Health, and Well‐Being: From Risk Mitigation to Health Promotion

Social Issues and Policy Review, Volume 15, Issue 1, Page 114-145, January 2021., 2021
Abstract Mass gatherings are routinely viewed as posing risks to physical health. However, social psychological research shows mass gathering participation can also bring benefits to psychological well‐being. We describe how both sets of outcomes can be understood as arising from the distinctive forms of behavior that may be found when people—even ...

Determination of Rate Constants and Reaction Orders of Vanadium‐Ion Kinetics on Carbon Fiber Electrodes.

ChemElectroChem, Volume 7, Issue 21, Page 4314-4325, November 2, 2020., 2020
Beyond porosity: The electrodes of vanadium redox‐flow batteries are usually carbon felt materials, whose porous structure makes detailed investigations of the vanadium‐ion kinetics difficult. Studies on single carbon‐fiber electrodes from commercial carbon felt materials can contribute to a better understanding of the electrode processes.

Managing temperate forests for carbon storage: impacts of logging versus forest protection on carbon stocks [PDF]

, 2014
Management of native forests offers opportunities to store more carbon in the land sector through two main activities. Emissions to the atmosphere can be avoided by ceasing logging.

Optimal Control of Diesel Engines: Numerical Methods, Applications, and Experimental Validation

Mathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
In response to the increasingly stringent emission regulations and a demand for ever lower fuel consumption, diesel engines have become complex systems. The exploitation of any leftover potential during transient operation is crucial. However, even an experienced calibration engineer cannot conceive all the dynamic cross couplings between the many ...

Partitioned Quasi‐Newton Approximation for Direct Collocation Methods and Its Application to the Fuel‐Optimal Control of a Diesel Engine

Journal of Applied Mathematics, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
The numerical solution of optimal control problems by direct collocation is a widely used approach. Quasi‐Newton approximations of the Hessian of the Lagrangian of the resulting nonlinear program are also common practice. We illustrate that the transcribed problem is separable with respect to the primal variables and propose the application of dense ...

A generic simulation model for relating forest CO2 intake and CO2 emissions by forest operations – The R-package care4cmodel [PDF]

arbon stocks and flows in forest ecosystems play an important role in the context of climate change mitigation. Different aspects of the forest carbon balance, however, are often treated independently, leading to a fragmented, disciplinary knowledge ...

Life Cycle Costs and Life Cycle Assessment for the Harvesting, Conversion, and the Use of Switchgrass to Produce Electricity

International Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
This paper considers both LCA and LCC of the pyrolysis of switchgrass to use as an energy source in a conventional power plant. The process consists of cultivation, harvesting, transportation, storage, pyrolysis, transportation, and power generation.

Integrin β3 Orchestrates Hepatic Steatosis via a Novel CD36‐Dependent Lipid Uptake Complex

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, 9 February 2026.
In MASH, ITGB3 recruits LYN and drives its ubiquitin‐proteasomal degradation via phosphorylation. This relieves DHHC5 inhibition, enabling ITGB3/DHHC5/CD36 complex assembly to enhance CD36 palmitoylation and fatty acid uptake, thereby exacerbating disease. Targeting ITGB3 blocks this pathogenic axis and ameliorates MASH.
