Exposing Gender Blindness in Business Scholarship on Modern Slavery

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The objective of this review is to analyse the treatment of gender within business scholarship on modern slavery and to propose a framework that supports more gender‐sensitive corporate responses. Modern slavery risk is an escalating concern for business, with the United Nations calling for its eradication by 2030.

Convergence Clubs in Corporate Sustainability: Identifying Industry and Risk‐Level ESG Convergence Patterns in S&P 500 Firms

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the growing emphasis on corporate sustainability, it remains unclear whether firms will align with common ESG standards. The Phillips–Sul convergence methodology, in combination with dynamic time‐warping clustering, was utilized to analyze the ESG trajectories of 430 S&P 500 firms from 2019 to 2024.

How Firms ‘Speak’ Social: Disclosure Posture as a Stable Strategic Communication Construct in ESG Reporting

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Why do firms subject to identical ESG reporting requirements nevertheless ‘speak’ the Social pillar in different ways? Some foreground numerical indicators; others rely on narrative accounts of policies, systems and stakeholder engagement. This variation in disclosure form, rather than in disclosure coverage, motivates this exploratory study ...

Do Firms Disclose Financially Material ESG Risks? Evidence From Japanese Food and Beverage Firms Using a Text Match Pretrained Transformer

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study develops a financial materiality‐oriented measure of ESG disclosure and examines how sustainability disclosures respond to evolving regulatory frameworks. Focusing on listed food and beverage firms in Japan from 2020 to 2024, we apply the Text Match Pretrained Transformer (TMPT) to assess the semantic relevance between disclosures ...

Rock mechanical properties under reconstructed deep in situ thermo–hydro–mechanical conditions: Implications for CO₂‐related injection scenarios

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates a reconstructed in situ thermo‐hydro‐mechanical (THM) framework in which porosity serves as the central variable linking stress, pore pressure, and temperature to evolving mechanical properties of rocks. Under burial conditions, in situ stress, pore pressure, and temperature jointly govern volumetric strain and ...

Energy evolution‐based damage quantification and failure prediction of fault zone tunnel lining concrete: A novel acoustic emission–strain energy coupling approach

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study investigates the damage evolution and failure mechanisms of tunnel lining concrete in active fault zones through uniaxial compression tests integrated with acoustic emission (AE) monitoring. A strong linear correlation is identified between the AE cumulative absolute energy and the total strain energy, providing a reliable energy‐based ...

Mitigating surcharge‐induced column‐head cracking in double‐deck shield tunnels using hyperelastic bearing joints

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A staged three‐dimensional nonlinear soil–structure interaction (SSI) model is established, in which the initial geostress state, tunnel excavation, lining installation, delayed activation of the internal frame, and subsequent surcharge loading are simulated sequentially.

Harnessing Thin‐Film Solid‐State Electrolytes: Enabling Breakthroughs in All‐Solid‐State Batteries

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration highlighting the advantages of transitioning from traditional thick solid‐state electrolytes (SSEs) to thin‐film SSEs. Thinning the electrolyte enables higher ionic conductivity, reduced interfacial polarization, improved flexibility, compact electrode contact, and enhanced energy density, offering a promising pathway toward high‐
