Exploring the relationships of between land surface temperature, ground coverage ratio and building volume density in an urbanized environment [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2015
The objective of this study is to explore and compare the relationships between urban land surface temperature (LST), ground coverage ratio (GCR) and building volume density (BVD). Landsat ETM+ data of August 2011 and August 2013 are used to estimate the

Assembly of Cell‐Seeded 3D Printed Hydrogel Modules with Perfusable Channel Networks

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Macroscale assembly was utilized to prepare perfusable tissue constructs from individually 3D printed hydrogel modules with embedded branched channel networks and port arrays for cell seeding. Novel multi‐material bioreactors were fabricated to facilitate the gluing of individual modules and the perfusion culture of assembled modular constructs seeded ...

Gender Pay Disclosure and Firm Performance: Quasi‐Experimental Evidence From the United Kingdom

open access: yesBritish Journal of Industrial Relations, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the impact of pay transparency on firm performance, measured as sales growth, in a large sample of UK‐registered companies between 2005 and 2023. We employ a difference‐in‐difference approach based on the pay transparency regulation enacted in 2017, which mandated all companies registered in the United Kingdom with at ...

Energetic stress in combination with impaired fatty acid oxidation induces sequestration of CoA and adaptation of CoA metabolism

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Computational modelling and in vitro liver cell experiments indicate that medium‐chain acyl‐CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) deficiency causes an accumulation of (especially medium‐chain) acyl‐CoAs at the cost of free CoA (CoASH). A substantial decrease in CoASH impairs flux through many pathways essential for energy homeostasis.

Bridging Knowledge Capability Gaps: Digital Technology Offsetting in Interfirm Knowledge Transfer

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract In this digital age, the adoption of digital technology (DT) is changing traditional business processes. Against this backdrop, we try to answer the question of whether DT could effectively bridge any interfirm knowledge capability gaps. Though effective knowledge transfer is dependent on the sender's and the receiver's knowledge capabilities,

Identifying and Mapping Industrial Districts Through a Spatially Constrained Cluster‐Wise Regression Approach

open access: yesJournal of Regional Science, Volume 65, Issue 2, Page 403-428, March 2025.
ABSTRACT The aim of this article is to exploit an innovative spatial econometric approach to map and study the evolving patterns of industrial districts (IDs). The procedure can be classified as a k‐means cluster‐wise regression procedure and is designed to detect homogeneous areas of subcontracting activity.
