Corporate Social Responsibility and Firm Profitability in South Africa: An Industry‐Level Analysis

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the relationship between corporate social responsibility and profit on assets in South Africa using a panel dataset comprising 79 industries observed annually between 2017 and 2024. The study uses an industry‐level dataset which, unlike firm‐level inquiries, purges firm‐level noise and acknowledges the empirical regularity ...

Variance‐Empirical Mode Decomposition Method for Fault Detection in MMC‐HVDC Transmission Lines

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
A variance‐embedded empirical mode decomposition (VEMD) method is proposed for fast and accurate fault detection in MMC‐HVDC transmission lines. By combining variance analysis with EMD, the method reliably detects various faults without communication links and remains robust to noise and non‐fault transients.

Knowledge sourcing, geopolitics, and FDI: An empirical analysis on the US green and digital sectors

Global Strategy Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary This paper examines how foreign direct investment (FDI) shapes firms' sourcing of knowledge in the digital and green domains under rising geopolitical frictions. We assemble a firm–country dyadic panel (2013–2020) linking US patent backward citations to firms' FDI, enriched with bilateral geopolitical distance and host‐country

The impact of a top-heavy IMF on the formation and evolution of dark star clusters

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
ABSTRACT The Spitzer instability leads to the formation of a black hole subsystem (BHSub) at the centre of a star cluster providing energy to luminous stars (LSs) and increasing their rate of evaporation. When the self-depletion time of the BHSub exceeds the evaporation time of the LSs, a dark star cluster (DSC) will appear.

Martian ion currents and escape driven by interplanetary magnetic field orientation based on hybrid simulations

Earth and Planetary Physics
As a planet lacking a global magnetic field, Mars interacts directly with the solar wind, forming an induced magnetosphere that mediates energy transfer and atmospheric ion loss.
