Operating Capacity, Pricing and Supply Elasticity in Container Shipping Markets

International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We investigate the channels through which changes in operating capacity influence freight rates in the container shipping market using a novel dataset to create an operating capacity index at the shipping‐route level. Our analysis reveals that when supply elasticity is low, an increase in operating capacity tends to drive freight rates upward,

Robustness Assessment of Public Transport Networks in Various Graph Representations: Systematic Review, Decision Support, and Case Study

Networks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The analysis of certain properties of the underlying graph of a public transport network generates insights about the network's structure. Hereby, the choice of the graph representation depends on a trade‐off between complexity reduction and information preservation to adequately model a public transport network.

Real‐Time Behavior Recognition Using a Legged Robot for Animal–Robot Interaction

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Animal–robot interaction is an emerging interdisciplinary field that explores the dynamics between animals and robotic systems, as well as the design principles for effective engagement. While previous approaches have investigated animal responses to robotic stimuli, they have yet to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) for real‐time ...

Isolation, Insularity and Resilience: A Review of the Geophysical, Socioeconomic, and Environmental Vulnerabilities of Gran Canaria and Lesvos Islands for Policy Interventions to Global Change

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.
