The dependency‐autonomy paradox: A core‐periphery analysis of tourism development in Mediterranean archipelagos

open access: yesInternational Journal of Tourism Research, Volume 25, Issue 5, Page 506-516, September/October 2023., 2023
Abstract Debates on island tourism have challenged the inevitability of underdevelopment in peripheral islands. A paradox of geopolitical dependency but optimal autonomy has been proposed where tourism can create a ‘virtuous periphery syndrome’.

Analysis of added mass in cavitating flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The paper addresses a theoretical study of the added mass effect in cavitating flow.The cavitation is considered to induce a strong time–space variation of the fluid density at the interface between an inviscid fluid and a three-degree-of-freedom rigid ...

A Numerical Investigation of Controllably Flexible Hydrofoil in Laminar Flows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Aquatic animals, such as fishes, whales, seals and penguins, are naturally born to be flexible and deformable, which promise their effective locomotion through water. They are able to produce hydrodynamic thrust by active control of their body configurations.
