How Multiple Streams Influence Agenda‐Setting for Water Reuse in Swiss Substates
Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As climate change creates significant challenges for both the environment and society, potential mitigation and adaptation solutions are widely discussed. Yet, neither challenges nor their potential solutions automatically reach the political agenda or lead to a policy decision.

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.Employing the moving least‐squares aided finite element method (MLS‐FEM) allows detailed thermal analysis in complex porous structures, such as polymeric foams, where the conductive heat transfer mechanism governs in the solid matrix and the convective mechanism dominates within the gas‐filled voids.

Immersed Boundary Projection Method for Boundaries With Slip Velocities
International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.A formulation of the immersed boundary method for incompressible flow over arbitrarily‐shaped bodies with surface slip described by the Navier boundary condition is presented. The wall slip velocity and the boundary force are determined implicitly through a projection to satisfy both the boundary condition and the divergence‐free condition of the ...

High‐Order Projection‐Based Upwind Method for Simulation of Transitional Turbulent Flows
International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.In this study, we evaluated the implicit large‐eddy simulation capabilities of the mass‐conserving mixed stress method for transitional turbulent flows and proposed an efficient solution method for large‐scale applications. The results presented in this work show promising outcomes for incompressible aerodynamic flow problems, which can be further ...

A Multi‐Objective Periodic Vehicle Routing Model for Sustainable Healthcare Waste Collection
The International Journal of Health Planning and Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The collection of infectious waste from healthcare facilities (HCF) constitutes a recurring operational challenge. Indeed, despite the inherent health risks posed by the storage and the transportation of infectious materials, most of the existing waste collection systems tends to prioritise cost optimization and to underaddress the safety ...

Heat Transfer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Several engineering problems involve the need to model conjugate heat transfer processes considering the temperature‐dependence of the material properties. Consequently, a simulation tool capable of modeling this process is of great interest. In this context, the present work proposes a thermal lattice Boltzmann method (TLBM) for modeling the ...

How Is FinTech Shaping Household Portfolio Behaviour?
International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper examines how FinTech adoption influences household portfolio allocation across major advanced economies. Using a flow‐of‐funds framework and the Almost Ideal Demand System (AIDS), we model household demand for currency, deposits, loans, debt securities, and equity in the United States, United Kingdom, Euro Area, Japan and Australia.

Catalan Bounds for Symmetric Strength‐Two Orthogonal Arrays
Journal of Combinatorial Designs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A Hamming shell construction is a two‐level array obtained by taking every binary vector of a given Hamming weight a prescribed number of times, for each weight in turn. Such arrays are invariant under all permutations of the factors, and they are strength‐two orthogonal arrays exactly when the multiplicities satisfy three linear constraints ...
