Balancing tracks and trees: Assessing railroad impact on Brazilian biodiversity

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The Brazilian West–East Integration Railway (FIOL) aims to boost the national economy by improving commodity transport; however, it crosses three of Brazil's most biodiverse and fragile regions: the Caatinga, Cerrado and Atlantic Forest. Using digitised plant records and land‐use analyses, our study reveals significant vegetation loss within the ...

Surface‐Embedded Ag@Multilayer Graphene for Photothermal‐Enhanced Superhydrophobic Anti‐Icing Coatings

open access: yesRare Metals, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Harnessing solar energy for self‐heating presents an effective strategy to suppress surface ice formation. In this paper, we fabricated nano‐silver‐modified multilayer graphene sheets (Ag@MGs) that integrate photothermal and superhydrophobic properties for anti‐icing applications.

When should firms watch for cross‐industry competition? A demand‐side perspective

open access: yesStrategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Research on competitor identification has primarily focused on intra‐industry competition. However, cross‐industry competitive threats are prevalent and consequential. We adopt a consumer‐oriented perspective to examine how consumer perceptions shape de facto competition across industry boundaries.

Switch Rail Reduction Value Deviation’s Impact on Wheel–Rail Dynamic Interaction and Its Efficient Identification Method: A Numerical and Experimental Study

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Railway turnout is a critical railway infrastructure that guides trains in switching tracks. Over time, uneven rail wear can lead to switch rail reduction value (SRRV) deviation, a typical structural defect that compromises turnout functionality and ...
