ABSTRACT Labor exploitation within agri‐food supply chains poses significant ethical and managerial challenges, particularly in Mediterranean contexts where irregular employment practices persist. This study investigates the case of NoCap, a third‐party ethical certification initiative operating in Italy that integrates social responsibility into ...

ABSTRACT The critical micelle concentration (CMC) values of the cationic gemini surfactant pentadiyl‐α,ω‐bis(dimethyldodecylammonium) bromide depend on the hydrophobicity of added conjugated organic carboxylate anions. Nine conjugated counterions, present as sodium salts of organic acids, were studied to expand the correlation to the counterion ...

Descent strategy comparisons for TNAV-equipped aircraft under airplane-preferred operating conditions [PDF]
Three 4-D descent strategies were evaluated which were employed by TNAV-equipped aircraft in an advanced metering air traffic control environment. The Flow Management Evaluation Model (FMEM) was used to assess performance using three criteria when ...

Abstract Recent technological advancements have rapidly expanded our capacity for collecting image data in the marine environment, but processing images into meaningful ecological metrics remains a manual, time‐consuming, and biased process. This is particularly challenging with electro‐optical cabled imaging systems which generate images at a rate ...

Interaction Between Vortex‐Induced Vibrations and Base Vibrations in Piezoelectric Harvesters
ABSTRACT In the present era, powering sensors using green energy is a significant challenge. One promising solution for the power supply of small sensors relies on piezoelectric energy harvesters excited by vortex‐induced vibrations (VIVs) generated by wind.
