Efficient Harvesting of Irregular and Low‐Frequency Mechanical Energy via Hybridized Electromagnetic‐Triboelectric Systems

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rapid expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT) and wearable electronics necessitates sustainable power sources to replace the limited electrochemical battery. While mechanical energy harvesting offers a promising solution, traditional harvesters face challenges of irregular and low−frequency environmental sources. This review presents the

AGRICULTURE IN A SOCIALIST CITY: Towards an Alter‐Urban Political Ecology

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Urban political ecology has developed as a critique of capitalist urbanization. This article develops the concept of alter‐urban political ecology to define urban environments emerging not from capitalist urbanization but from efforts to transform it. Drawing on archival research and ethnographic fieldwork in five urban farms in socialist Cuba,

The hole in the doughnut: Formalizing and testing a key model of degrowth

open access: yesContemporary Economic Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract Degrowth scholars often claim that capitalism generates social and ecological imbalances, as captured by Kate Raworth's leading doughnut model. We formalize this model using social and environmental indices and measure imbalances using their coefficient of variation.

Fuel Consumption and Emissions Reductions of Hybrid Electric Regional‐Haul Trucks Equipped with a High‐Pressure Direct Injection Natural Gas Engine in Real‐World Driving Conditions

open access: yesEnergy Technology, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Integrating powertrain electrification with efficient engines using low‐carbon fuels like natural gas (NG) improves energy conversion efficiency and mitigates greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in heavy‐duty (HD) trucks. High‐pressure direct injection (HPDI) NG engines, using less than 5% diesel (energy basis) as pilot fuel, offer diesel‐like efficiency ...
