Chasing the perfida Albione: Anglo‐Italian productivity gap in the late 1930s

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents new estimates of Anglo‐Italian labour productivity levels in manufacturing in the late 1930s, derived using the standard single‐deflation approach. The findings confirm a substantial productivity gap between Italy and the United Kingdom at the aggregate level, alongside pronounced intersectoral heterogeneity.

Design of a Three‐Phase PWM Rectifier Based on Improved Whale Optimization Algorithm Optimized Fuzzy Control

Advanced Control for Applications, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.
Schematic diagram of the whale optimization algorithm (WOA)–optimized fuzzy proportional–integral–derivative (PID) controller. The WOA is employed to dynamically tune the scaling factor expressions and fuzzy control parameters (a(e)a(e), a(ec)a(ec), βpβp, βiβi), as well as the initial PID gains (kp0kp0, ki0ki0), based on the error (ee) and its ...

Multi‐Site Chelation Enabled by 3D‐Printed TiO2 Hydrogel Monoliths for Dynamic Ge(IV) Recovery in Fixed Beds

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Germanium is a critical dispersed metal, yet sustainable recovery from dilute solutions is limited by sorbents that are difficult to regenerate and operate in continuous mode. Here, we fabricate a regenerable 3D‐printed hydrogel monolith (3D‐ATO‐GS) by integrating hydroxyl‐rich amorphous TiO2 nanoparticles into an alginate/gelatin scaffold ...

Defining the geographical level of competition: a taxonomy of industry tradability

Economica, Volume 93, Issue 371, Page 962-991, July 2026.
Abstract The paper develops a taxonomy of industry tradability to define the geographical level at which competition takes place. First, it creates a novel dataset that combines production and international trade data for both goods and services industries, defined at a detailed (3‐digit) level of industry aggregation for 15 European countries.
