How to Navigate Disrupted Business Models in the 21st Century: At the Crossroads of the Circular Economy and the Industry 4.0 Transition

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Our planet faces a critical crisis, with pollution, resource depletion and biodiversity loss surpassing sustainable limits. Businesses must address these challenges, with the circular economy and Industry 4.0 offering transformative potential through closed‐loop systems, regenerative solutions and advanced technologies.

From laser cooling to aging: a unified Levy flight description

open access: yes, 2008
Intriguing phenomena such as subrecoil laser cooling of atoms, or aging phenomenon in glasses, have in common that the systems considered do not reach a steady-state during the experiments, although the experimental time scales are very large compared to

Probabilistic Multi‐Objective Energy Management System Model for an Energy Hub With PtG Technology for Cost Reduction and System Flexibility Improvement

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Overview of the under‐study hub energy model showing the energy conversion and distribution among integrated sources and loads. ABSTRACT In this paper, a probabilistic bi‐objective energy management system (EMS) model is proposed for an energy hub (EH) equipped with renewable energy sources such as photovoltaic and wind turbine connected to the main ...

On the Extreme Flights of One-Sided Levy Processes

open access: yes, 2003
We explore the statistical behavior of the order statistics of the flights of One-sided Levy Processes (OLPs). We begin with the study of the extreme flights of general OLPs,and then focus on the class of selfsimilar processes,investigating the following

Slow relaxation in the two dimensional electron plasma under the strong magnetic field [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We study slow relaxation processes in the point vortex model for the two-dimensional pure electron plasma under the strong magnetic field. By numerical simulations, it is shown that, from an initial state, the system undergoes the fast relaxation to a ...

Levy flights are not evolved behavior

open access: yesNature Precedings, 2011
AbstractTracks of moving animals have many short moves interspersed with longer moves, and frequencies of all moves together often indicate Levy flights (a type of power law)^1^. The Levy flight foraging hypothesis suggests that, 'since Levy flights and walks can optimize search efficiencies, therefore natural selection should have led to adaptations ...

Average Time Spent by Levy Flights and Walks on an Interval with Absorbing Boundaries

open access: yes, 2001
We consider a Levy flyer of order alpha that starts from a point x0 on an interval [O,L] with absorbing boundaries. We find a closed-form expression for the average number of flights the flyer takes and the total length of the flights it travels before ...

Noncanonical Nucleotides in the Genome Around the Maternal‐Zygotic Transition

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
In this paper, Kazzazi et al. provide a comprehensive review of the dynamics of nonconventional nucleotides in the genome during early developmental stages, hypothesizing a potential role for these nucleotides in the activation of the zygotic genome. ABSTRACT From the very moment of fertilization and throughout development, the cells of animal embryos ...

Path Planning of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Based on an Improved Bio-Inspired Tuna Swarm Optimization Algorithm

open access: yesBiomimetics
The Sine–Levy tuna swarm optimization (SLTSO) algorithm is a novel method based on the sine strategy and Levy flight guidance. It is presented as a solution to the shortcomings of the tuna swarm optimization (TSO) algorithm, which include its tendency to

Cuckoo Search Inspired Hybridization of the Nelder-Mead Simplex Algorithm Applied to Optimization of Photovoltaic Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A new hybridization of the Cuckoo Search (CS) is developed and applied to optimize multi-cell solar systems; namely multi-junction and split spectrum cells. The new approach consists of combining the CS with the Nelder-Mead method.
