Predicting Pavement Condition Index for Cold‐Region Highways Using an ENET‐XGBoost Coupled Model

open access: yesApplied Research, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2026.
An ENET–XGBoost framework combines regularized feature selection and nonlinear residual correction for cold‐region pavement prediction. Traffic loading dominates deterioration; the model achieved R2 = 0.969 in back‐calculation, while Markov and scenario analyses indicate a 25% risk of Fair‐or‐below condition in 2026 and PCI of 74.2–77.5 by 2028 ...

Experimental, Numerical, and Analytical Model of the Meso‐Mechanical Behavior of Linear Low‐Density Polyethylene Plastic and Sand Composite

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2026.
High‐volume sand reinforcement (up to 62%) dramatically enhances the compressive stiffness of waste LLDPE composites, increasing elastic modulus from 217 to 1683 MPa. A validated 3D RVE mesoscale model (R2 = 0.99) and modified analytical formulation accurately predict elastic behavior at high filler contents where classical models fail.

Life Cycle Analysis as a Sustainable Governance Lever for Environmental Performance: Evidence From French SBF 120 Companies

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 7124-7140, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study draws on neo‐institutional theory, stakeholder theory, and the resource‐based view to examine the relationship between the use of Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) and firms' Environmental Performance (EP). Focusing on French companies listed on the SBF 120 index from 2002 to 2021, it investigates how LCA adoption influences EP across three
