An enhanced pricing model for truck transportation: a case study in Swedish forestry
Abstract Determining freight rates for heavy trucks involves a detailed analysis of multiple cost factors, including time, distance, fuel, and other operational costs, which collectively contribute to the overall compensation for transportation services. However, actual remuneration is based on more simplified agreements.

Abstract Air transport is expected to substantially grow in the next decades, presenting a significant challenge for the aviation industry to reconcile this growth with the need to mitigate climate change by reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. A viable strategy for diminishing aviation emissions involves reducing aircraft fuel consumption, which ...

Synthesis and thermal properties of dense Si─Al─C─N‐based polymer‐derived ceramics
Abstract In the present study, aluminum‐modified preceramic silicon polymers were synthesized via chemical modification of a commercially available organopolysilazane using an aluminum amido complex. The incorporation of aluminum into the polymer structure and its effect on ceramization behavior and processability as well as the thermal and mechanical ...

Abstract The sustainable intensification of crop production provides more output with similar or fewer inputs, and therefore helps to produce food, feed, fiber, and fuel more efficiently. While short‐stature maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids have been shown to be more climate resilient, with reductions in yield‐scaled greenhouse gas production due to reduced

Abstract This article illustrates the impact of neoliberal economic policies on forced migration from Arab Spring countries. It highlights how these policies, based on the recommendations of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank, significantly contributed to the outbreak of civil wars and subsequent refugee crises.
