Sustainability assessment in agriculture: emerging issues in voluntary sustainability standards and their governance

open access: yesEcology and Society, 2023
Over the past two decades, voluntary sustainability standards (VSS) have emerged as instruments to improve social and environmental practices and to communicate sustainability standards in trade and business. However, debates about the correct assessment

Periodicity-Doubling Cascades: Direct Observation in Ferroelastic Materials [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2019
Very sensitive responses to external forces are found near phase transitions. However, transition dynamics and preequilibrium phenomena are difficult to detect and control. We have observed that the equilibrium domain structure following a phase transition in ferroelectric and ferroelastic BaTiO_{3} is attained by halving of the domain periodicity ...

Acoustical properties of double porosity granular materials [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2011
Granular materials have been conventionally used for acoustic treatment due to their sound absorptive and sound insulating properties. An emerging field is the study of the acoustical properties of multiscale porous materials. An example of these is a granular material in which the particles are porous.

On a Theory of Thermoelastic Materials with a Double Porosity Structure [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Thermal Stresses, 2014
In this article, we use the Nunziato–Cowin theory of materials with voids to derive a theory of thermoelastic solids, which have a double porosity structure. The new theory is not based on Darcy's law. In the case of equilibrium, in contrast with the classical theory of elastic materials with double porosity, the porosity structure of the body is ...
