Estimating National and Foreign Trade Elasticities Using Generalized Transport Costs
Journal of Regional Science, Volume 65, Issue 2, Page 471-496, March 2025.ABSTRACT We introduce the definition of two distinct trade elasticities corresponding to imports from regions located in the same country (national elasticities) and foreign regions located in other countries (foreign elasticities). We resort to a three‐tier nested CES utility structure to derive the corresponding demand gravity equations.

Sustainable freight transport in South Africa:Domestic intermodal solutions
Journal of Transport and Supply Chain Management, 2011 Due to the rapid deregulation of freight transport in South Africa two decades ago, and low historical investment in rail (with resultant poor service delivery), an integrated alternative to road and rail competition was never developed.

Language Learning, EarlyView.Abstract The current study examined how children apply their phonological knowledge to recognize translation equivalents in a foreign language. Target words for recognition were either phonologically similar (cognate) or dissimilar (noncognate) to words they already knew in their first language.

Reframing Airport Choice in Platform Logistics: The Case of Amazon Air
Transportation Journal, Volume 65, Issue 1, Winter 2026.ABSTRACT While the substantial growth of e‐commerce has transformed air cargo from a peripheral service into a major revenue source in air transportation, airports, key nodes in this network, have increasingly benefited from this shift. The emergence of new players such as Amazon Air has significantly influenced the revenue growth trajectories of many ...

Generalized Transport Costs in Intermodal Freight Transport
Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences, 2012 AbstractIntermodal transport solutions, implying non-road freight transport on the long-haul, can contribute to the advance of more energy efficient transportation systems. This paper presents a model for analyzing the generalized transport cost of an intermodal transport solution.

Supply Chain Disruptions and Retail & Wholesale Inventory Dynamics: An Empirical Investigation
Transportation Journal, Volume 65, Issue 2, Spring 2026.ABSTRACT Effective inventory management is critical for retail and wholesale (R&W) firms. Yet, little is understood regarding R&W firm‐level inventory dynamics during supply chain disruptions. Such dynamics have implications for transportation providers tasked with hauling these goods.

Helically Magnetized Plasma: From Photonic Fermi‐Arc Metal to Chirality‐Free Uniaxial Medium
Nanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.A helically modulated magnetic field in magnetized plasma realizes a photonic Fermi‐arc metal, enabling full analytical tracking of Weyl node evolution. As modulation strengthens, opposing‐chirality Fermi arcs hybridize and recombine, yielding a chirality‐free uniaxial optical medium without conventional node annihilation.
