Comparison of the Efficiency of Mudarabahh Contract with Conventional Methods of Financing - Signalling Effect of Component Profit Sharing Ratio Approach [PDF]

open access: yesمطالعات مالی و بانکداری اسلامی, 2019
The failure of the credit market resulting from the asymmetric information space leads to adverse selection and moral hazard. While exploiting the game theory's signaling effect approach, it is possible to modify the phenomena, which provides the ...

Nonreciprocal Swarmalators With Reconfigurable and Controllable Formations for Robot Collectives

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Nonreciprocal swarmalator interactions are enabled through control barrier functions to transform self‐organizing robot collectives into reconfigurable, constraint‐aware systems. Complex two‐ and three‐dimensional shapes, continuous morphing, obstacle‐aware navigation, collective splitting, and object transport emerge from modulating agent‐level ...

Thermodynamics of Concomitant Charge‐Transfer, Antiferromagnetic, and Isostructural Phase Transitions in Barocaloric ACu3Fe4O12 Quadruple Perovskites

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A copper‐iron charge transfer instability drives concomitant electronic, magnetic, and isostructural phase transitions in ACu3Fe4O12${\rm ACu}_3{\rm Fe}_4{\rm O}_{12}$, with an inverse barocaloric effect. A minimal Landau theory ties these thermodynamic signatures together, revealing a pressure‐independent transition entropy with comparable charge and ...

On the co-existence of spot and contract markets: an analysis of quality [PDF]

open access: yes
The possible co-existence of spot and contract market that can emerge in the presence of quality issues with a number of growers and processors in each stage is something that has largely remained an open question in the literature.

Microscale Mapping of Fiber Strain and Damage in Composite Wrinkled Laminates Using Computed Tomography Assisted Wide‐Angle X‐Ray Scattering

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study combines full‐field tomography with diffraction mapping to quantify radial (ε002$\varepsilon _{002}$) and axial (ε100$\varepsilon _{100}$) lattice strain in wrinkled carbon‐fiber specimens for the first time. Radial microstrain gradients (−14.5 µεMPa$\varepsilon \mathrm{MPa}$−1) are found to signal damage‐prone zones ahead of failure, which ...

Project Contract Management and a Theory of Organization [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper attempts to develop concepts of project and contract organization to predict the selection of contract type on infrastructure projects. Conventional wisdom is that at low risk fixed price contracts are best, moving to remeasurement and then ...

The Mind From Within: Visceral Roots of Human Cognition

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The physiological activity of visceral organs, such as the heart, the lungs, and the gut, is surprisingly linked to many sophisticated mental operations, such as remembering the past, being aware of ourselves, making choices, and forging social bonds.
