New AI‐Assisted Approach for Expanding the Solution Space: Application to Lattice Structure Design

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces an innovative framework for designing structured materials by ex panding the design space through reparameterization of qualitative variables into continuous structural descriptors. Combined with machine‐learning‐based prediction and multi‐objective optimization, the approach enables the discovery of novel lattice architectures ...

Does convergence really matter for the environment? An application based on club convergence and on the ecological footprint concept for the EU countries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The ecological footprint has currently become a highly popular environmental performance indicator. It provides the basis for setting goals, identifying options for action, and tracking progress toward stated goals.

The Future of Africa’s Digitalisation: Evidence from Phillips–Sul Convergence Clubbing and Predictive ML Models

open access: yesTechnologies
Globalisation, accompanied by the rapid advancement of digital technologies, has become the bedrock of contemporary economies. However, the global digital divide has hindered many economies from enjoying the benefits of enhanced digitalisation.

Investigating the Convergence Clubs among Provinces of Iran during 2000-2009 [PDF]

open access: yesپژوهشهای اقتصادی, 2014
The convergence hypothesis is a result of the neoclassical growth model. By definition, the concept of convergence is the faster growth of regions (economies) with lower per capita income compared to the regions (economies) with higher per capita income.

Microstructure Modification of Additively Manufactured Mo–9Si–8B by Annealing and Its Effects on High‐Temperature Mechanical Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Postbuild annealing systematically modifies the phase fractions and morphology of EB‐PBF processed Mo–9Si–8B. Quantitative microstructure–property correlations reveal how controlled phase evolution enhances high‐temperature compressive strength and creep resistance.

Latin American Clubs: Uncovering Patterns of Convergence [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2006
This paper explores the dynamics of convergence in Latin American countries and asks whether there are tendencies for converging to different clubs. The analysis shows clear differences between two groups: a large group of low-to-middle income countries and a small group of rich ountries.

About regional convergence clubs in the European Union [PDF]

open access: yesZbornik radova Ekonomskog fakulteta u Rijeci : časopis za ekonomsku teoriju i praksu, 2015
The goal of this research is to present the concept of convergence club within the European Union members, starting from the hypothesis that an overall convergence cannot be identified because of the high output disparities between ...

Non‐Additive Criteria Assessment in Sustainability Evaluation of High Entropy Alloys: A Toxicity‐Weighted Framework

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Sustainability assessment requires methodologies that appropriately distinguish between additive and non‐additive material properties. A toxicity‐weighted scoring system is developed and applied that accounts for the disproportionate influence of highly toxic constituents through nonlinear weighting functions, providing more realistic estimates than ...

Accounting standards convergence dynamics: International evidence from club convergence and clustering

open access: yes, 2014
This paper aims to explore convergence of accounting standards across worldwide adopted measures to investigate whether countries that have not completely adopted International Accounting Standards across the globe have displayed a tendency to act so ...
