Strategic Design Choices in Upcycled Fashion: Effects of Design Typicality and Material Domain Distance on Sustainable Consumption

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While upcycling clothing reflects environmental value (i.e., greenness) and distinctive designs (i.e., uniqueness), consumer responses to upcycled clothing designs remain underexplored. Drawing on categorization, cue utilization, and domain distance theories, two experimental studies were conducted with US female aged 18–45.

Stability Analysis in a Direct-Current Shipboard Power System with Parallel Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generators and Supercapacitor Integration

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
This paper investigates the small-signal stability of a DC shipboard power system (SPS) with the integration of a supercapacitor. As an efficient energy storage solution, supercapacitors can not only provide rapid energy response to sudden power demand ...

Advancements and Challenges in Second‐ and Third‐Generation Biofuels: A Comparative Analysis of Lignocellulosic and Algal Feedstocks

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Advanced biofuels derived from nonfood biomass are increasingly recognized as strategic components of low‐carbon energy systems, particularly for sectors where direct electrification remains difficult. Second‐generation biofuels from lignocellulosic residues and third‐generation biofuels from algal and aquatic biomass offer complementary ...

Modeling Skin Mark Temporal Variations to Estimate the Sex of Delphinids with Low Sexual Dimorphism: Implications for Management and Conservation

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This work aimed to apply the principles of skin mark analysis to a cetacean species to build a sex‐discrimination model exclusively based on photographic material. Relevant differences between sexes emerged in markings, with males presenting more social, aggression‐related, and fishing‐related marks overall, and a stronger tendency of mark accumulation

Economic Valuation of Renewable Transport Fuels: Evidence From Solar Fuel Willingness to Pay in Quebec, Canada

The American Journal of Economics and Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transport sector is one of the largest contributors to global greenhouse gas emissions, making it a key priority for climate mitigation policies. In this context, renewable fuels represent a promising complementary pathway to transport electrification, particularly due to their compatibility with existing internal combustion engine ...
