Pesticide MRLs as Trade Barriers: Evidence From Vietnam's Coffee and Rice Exporters
ABSTRACT As tariffs have declined globally through bilateral and regional trade agreements, food safety standards have emerged as significant determinants of agricultural trade flows. This study examines the impact of maximum residue limits (MRLs) for five pesticides—Azoxystrobin, Chlorpyrifos, Chlorantraniliprole, Clothianidin, and Cyhalothrin—on ...

Vertical Price Transmission in Food Markets: New Evidence From Meta‐Analysis
ABSTRACT A growing body of empirical research has examined price dynamics along the food supply chain, yet findings remain heterogeneous and often conflicting. This study conducts a meta‐analysis of 140 studies, totaling 652 observations, to examine (1) the reported presence of asymmetric price transmission and (2) the reported direction of price ...

This multi‐institutional study evaluated the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) in 225 nonagenarians undergoing surgical resection for colorectal cancer. A lower preoperative GNRI was independently associated with a longer hospital stay and poorer overall survival, even after adjustment for confounders using inverse‐probability‐of‐treatment ...

Model predictive control with inline parameter adaptation for direct crystal growth rate regulation
Abstract In batch cooling crystallization, many interactive factors, including supersaturation, reactor dimensions, and operating conditions, govern crystal growth and significantly influence product properties. Variables such as temperature or refractive index are used as surrogate control variables but have limitations in capturing growth rate ...

ABSTRACT Conceptual process design combines discrete configuration choices with continuous operating decisions, often yielding difficult mixed‐integer nonlinear or simulation‐based optimization problems. This work presents an exploratory computational assessment of Ising‐based solvers, simulated annealing, quantum annealing, and entropy computing, as ...

Abstract The rapid growth of AI data centers (AIDCs) is intensifying stress on power systems and exposing operators to volatile electricity markets. This work develops a process‐informed co‐optimization framework that integrates liquid air energy storage (LAES) with AIDC operation. Unlike black‐box storage models, the proposed formulation captures LAES
