Applied Research, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2026.This study introduces a reliability‐calibrated machine learning framework to predict the maximum dry density and optimum moisture content of heterogeneous soils. By integrating 15 algorithms with conformal prediction, the models deliver accurate compaction estimates alongside rigorous, distribution‐free 90% confidence intervals.

High‐strength composites by thiocracking of high‐polypropylene‐content mixed waste
Polymer International, Volume 75, Issue 10, Page 1004-1010, October 2026.Mixed plastic waste made up of polystyrene and polypropylene was reacted with elemental sulfur to give high‐strength composites. Abstract Mixed‐material municipal waste poses a persistent end‐of‐life management challenge because the heterogeneous composition limits efficient separation and recycling. After disposal, mixed‐material waste often fragments

Disciplining the “Queen of the World”? Responsible Innovation as a Way of Life
Business Ethics, the Environment &Responsibility, Volume 35, Issue 4, Page 3713-3724, October 2026.ABSTRACT This paper offers a critical reflection on the concept of responsible innovation as defined during the last decades. We argue that the emphasis on innovation as a process risks neglecting the very goals of innovation, namely societal desirability and acceptability. Thus, we suggest reconsidering the role of imagination, the “Queen of the world”
