Geometry Optimization of Crystals by the Quasi-Independent Curvilinear Coordinate Approximation

, 2005
The quasi-independent curvilinear coordinate approximation (QUICCA) method [K. N\'emeth and M. Challacombe, J. Chem. Phys. {\bf 121}, 2877, (2004)] is extended to the optimization of crystal structures.

Towards Advanced Intelligent and Perceptive Soft Grippers

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Implementing soft yet strong and intelligent soft grippers request innovative and creative solutions in designing soft bodies and seamlessly integrating actuated systems with hierarchical sensing. This review systematically analyses soft grippers with a deep understanding of core components, from fundamental design principles to actuation and sensing ...

When the Remedy Is Worse Than the Illness: Carbon Performance and Growth Opportunities Under the EU ETS

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines how the European Union Emissions Trading System allowance prices reshape the link between corporate environmental performance (CEP) and firms' growth expectations, measured by Tobin's Q. Using a panel of 1370 listed firms across 15 European countries from 2005 to 2024 and high‐dimensional fixed‐effects models, we first ...

Coordinate Independence of of Quantum-Mechanical Path Integrals

, 2000
We develop simple rules for performing integrals over products of distributions in coordinate space. Such products occur in perturbation expansions of path integrals in curvilinear coordinates, where the interactions contain terms of the form dot q^2 q^n,

Corporate Environmental Responsibility and Cost of Equity Capital: A Meta‐Analytical Review

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite extensive research on the relationship between corporate environmental responsibility (CER) and cost of equity capital (COEC), empirical evidence remains inconsistent. This study addresses these inconsistencies through a comprehensive meta‐analysis of 1139 effect sizes from 75 studies.

Electromagnetic Radiation from the Geometrical Point of View

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
The article describes the relationship between the solutions of Maxwell's equations which can be considered at least locally as plane waves and the curvilinear coordinates of geometrical optics.

Diffusion of Carbamazepine in Hydrophobic Zeolites: A Comparative Study Using Classical and Machine‐Learned Potentials

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Can hydrophobic, shape‐selective zeolites efficiently remove the persistent pharmaceutical CBZ from water? This work moves beyond the static picture of interaction energies by modeling diffusion with umbrella sampling and machine‐learned potentials. Even high intrinsic diffusion barriers can be overcome through exergonic adsorption from water, yielding

What Drives CSR Performance: Structures, Declarations or Values?

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainability and corporate social responsibility (CSR) are increasingly central to strategic management, yet a gap persists between formal commitments and actual practice. The study explores the structural and value‐based predictors of the institutional integration of CSR and sustainability, with a focus on the mediating role of the CSR ...
