A Spatial Clustering Approach of Economic Activities: An Application to the Agribusiness Sector in Brazil's Midwest Region

open access: yesGeographical Analysis, Volume 58, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The spatial distribution of economic activities is central to regional economics. However, empirical tools for comparing industries based on the similarity of their spatial distributions remain limited. Traditional cluster analysis typically ignores geographical distance and connectivity, while spatial methods focus on clustering places rather

Surface modification and qualitative natural coloring of raw jute to reduce electrical resistance and induce anti-microbial properties

open access: yesApplied Surface Science Advances, 2020
Jute is a natural cellulosic fiber. Due to its natural traits, jute has a high proclivity to be attracted by microorganisms which degrade the longevity as well as quality.

Structural characterization and optimum machining parameters of jute/carbon fibre hybrid reinforced epoxy composite laminates

open access: yesPolymer International, Volume 75, Issue 9, Page 804-817, September 2026.
Hybrid jute/carbon epoxy laminates have better mechanical performance and less drilling damage by the use of optimized stacking sequence and machining parameters. Abstract Three composite laminate systems were produced using the standard hand lay‐up method: jute‐fibre‐reinforced polymer (JFRP), carbon‐fibre‐reinforced polymer (CFRP) and a hybrid of the

Experimental Characterization of Mycelium‐Based Composites Under Multiple Loading Conditions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 15, 5 August 2026.
This study examines the mechanical response of mycelium‐based composites under compression, shear, and tension using mechanical testing and imaging methods. The comparison between unpressed and hot‐pressed specimens shows that hot pressing is associated with higher compression and shear stiffnesses.
