Transforming Procurement: The Dynamic Capabilities and Microfoundations to Buy Circular

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circular Procurement (CP) integrates Circular Economy (CE) principles into purchasing decisions to close material loops and retain value across product life cycles. Yet, its adoption remains limited due to persistent barriers within procurement processes.

From Material Tensions to Organizational Paradoxes: How Manufacturers Cope With the Limits of Circular Product Design

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circular product design (CPD) is central to advancing the circular economy by enabling the narrowing, slowing, and closing of resource flows. Yet, its implementation remains persistently challenging for firms. Prior research has largely framed these challenges as discrete barriers, overlooking the structural contradictions embedded in CPD ...

Behavior of concrete beams reinforced with hybrid steel and FRP composites

HBRC Journal, 2018
This paper presents a nonlinear finite element model to investigate the behavior of hybrid Fiber Reinforced Polymers and steel reinforcement. Different types of Fiber Reinforced Polymers; CFRP and GFRP; were used along with steel rebars in the studied ...

Locked in Transition: Examining the Role of Paradoxical Tensions in the Transition From Industrial Cluster to Eco‐Clusters

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Industrial clusters are central to the circular economy transition, yet how they develop into eco‐clusters and the paradoxical tensions this transformation fuels remain underexplored. Drawing on 48 in‐depth interviews and secondary data from a Turkish textile‐recycling cluster, we develop an empirically grounded model of eco‐cluster transition

From Managing Innovation to Governing Value: Reconceptualizing the Role of Intellectual Property in the Sustainable Business Model

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The role of intellectual property (IP) in promoting or hindering sustainable innovation now forms a topical issue in innovation management. Its role in the sustainable business model remains imperfectly understood however, creating a simplified view of IP in relation to corporate sustainable development. Hence, this study sought to examine how

Performance of Fiber-reinforced Self-consolidating Concrete for Repair of Reinforced Concrete Beams

, 2014
Fiber-reinforced self-consolidating concrete (FR-SCC) was investigated to assess its potential value as a repair material of reinforced concrete beams. A total of 10 repair mixtures were optimized to repair 10 full-scale beams.

Engineering Biochar‐Derived Functional Materials for High‐Performance Supercapacitors: Design Principles, Mechanisms, and Scalable Strategies

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biochar has emerged as a useful and adaptable source of carbon for supercapacitor electrodes. Its value comes from the way biomass chemistry, thermal conversion, and activation conditions shape the resulting pore network, surface groups, and degree of carbon ordering.
