The impact of public drop‐off boxes and autonomous delivery robots in last‐mile delivery

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, Volume 33, Issue 6, Page 3825-3854, November 2026.
Abstract The growing concern over emissions from last‐mile logistics is motivating the development of innovative delivery models aimed at reducing environmental impact and traffic congestion. To this end, we propose a last‐mile delivery scheme based on both public drop‐off boxes and autonomous delivery robots.

Integrated routing of heavy electrical and diesel trucks in forest transports

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 3088-3109, September 2026.
Abstract Fossil‐free forestry transports are important to reach climate goals. In Sweden, road transports account for around 50% of the industry's CO2 emissions and almost 20% of the road freight volumes. Previous studies have shown that electrification is a cost‐effective way for carbon abatement, while at the same time the requirements for ...

Civilian Occupational Exposure to Vapors, Gas, Dust, or Fumes and Respiratory Health Among United States Military Veterans

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Industrial Medicine, Volume 69, Issue 7, Page 503-511, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background We investigated associations of self‐reported and job exposure matrix (JEM) assigned civilian occupational exposure to vapors, gas, dust, or fumes (VGDF) with respiratory symptoms among previously deployed US Veterans. Methods An interviewer‐administered questionnaire ascertained self‐reported civilian occupational VGDF exposure.

Respirable Dust Exposure in Western Australian Mining: Trends, Variability, and Implications for Occupational Health

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Industrial Medicine, Volume 69, Issue 7, Page 540-547, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Mining workers are exposed to a range of respiratory hazards, including respirable dust. While exposure to respirable crystalline silica in the mining industry has been found to be common, less is known about trends in measured levels of exposure to respirable dust overall.
