War as a Phenomenon of Inquiry in Management Studies
Abstract We argue that war as a phenomenon deserves more focused attention in management. First, we highlight why war is an important and relevant area of inquiry for management scholars. We then integrate scattered conversations on war in management studies into a framework structured around three building blocks – (a) the nature of war from an ...

Scale‐aware impact modelling for atmospheric releases of radioactive material
Since the Fukushima nuclear power plant disaster in 2011, the UK has developed the process of Joint Agency Modelling (JAM), which provides advice to government in case of atmospheric releases of radioactive material. The timely deployment of JAM requires a prior estimate of the extent to which impacts could reach. Thus, to develop a fast pre‐calculator
