ABSTRACT Air transport is one of the fastest‐growing sources of greenhouse gas emissions, yet it remains one of the most difficult sectors to decarbonize. The sector's climate impact is amplified by two factors: the steady rise in passenger demand and the absence of commercially viable low‐carbon technologies for long‐haul flights.

Practical Methodology for Developing Visions for Carbon‐Neutral Cities and Communities
ABSTRACT Cities and communities play important roles in sustainable development and climate change mitigation. This study presents a novel framework for developing carbon‐neutral visions for cities and communities. We established five “principles,” investigated options encompassing four parameters (management, goal setting, actions, and quantification),

Development of the model of forced-exhaust ventilation for passenger carriages
The behavior analysis of the model of forced-exhaust ventilation for the passenger compartment carriage, based on the principle of similarity with electric circuits is performed. For quality indicators of the control object, the parameters of resistance and relative inductances determining the aerodynamic inertia of ducts and compartments are included ...

From armed roots to airline routes in South America: A dual imprinting perspective
Abstract Reserch Summary We propose that founding partner relationships can leave distinct imprints on organizations that differ in durability and in how they respond to subsequent changes involving the founding partner. Examining South American airlines founded between 1919 and 1984, we argue and find that such relationships simultaneously create an ...

Fast learning and sustained exploration: The role of timely performance feedback
Abstract Research Summary How should organizations manage learning dynamics? Strategy theories suggest “more‐is‐better”—fast, frictionless sharing enhances performance—while organizational learning theory warns that “less‐is‐more,” as fast learning causes premature convergence.
