Meshing or Clashing Gears? Design (In)Coherences Between the EU Regulation on Deforestation‐Free Products and Third Country Environmental Regulations

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As new regulations emerge to address deforestation and unsustainable land use, their interaction with existing national frameworks remains uncertain. This study examines the (in)coherence between the European Union Regulation on deforestation‐free products (EUDR) and domestic deforestation and land use regulations in Brazil, Cameroon and Gabon.

Appraising Policies Through Social Multi‐Criteria Evaluation: Lessons From a Systematic Review of Applications

open access: yesEuropean Policy Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In response to renewed interest in analytical tools that address complex policy problems and move beyond linear‐rational approaches in policy appraisal, Social Multi‐Criteria Evaluation (SMCE) integrates participatory approaches with multi‐criteria analysis (MCA), thereby incorporating specialised knowledge and diverse social values and ...

Assessment of Voltage Unbalance and Power Losses in Distribution Network Integrated With PVs and EV Charging Stations

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Unequal load distribution in three‐phase power distribution networks leads to voltage unbalance and decreased network efficiency. Integration of photovoltaics (PVs) and electric vehicle charging stations (EVCSs) into such networks is a challenging task as their penetration affects the power quality of the system.

Influence of Technological and Environmental Factors on the Major Ion Composition in Cooling Water Discharges of a Nuclear Power Plant

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Statistical modelling and grey water footprint analysis revealed how technological and environmental factors shape the major ion composition of cooling water discharges from a nuclear power plant. Findings highlight that while ion concentrations increase post‐discharge, they remain within regulatory limits, ensuring minimal ecological impact.

Full Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics Ahead: Leveraging Immersive Virtual Reality to Create Equitable and Transformative Learning Experiences

open access: yesFuture in Educational Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Immersive virtual reality (IVR) is widely promoted as a means of enriching learning in science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM), yet evidence of its capacity to foster equitable classroom experiences for marginalised groups remains limited, particularly outside traditional STEM domains.

Impact of Uncertain Parameters on Navier–Stokes Equations With Heat Transfer via Polynomial Chaos Expansion

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
This study investigates the impact of uncertain parameters on Navier–Stokes equations coupled with heat transfer using the Intrusive Polynomial Chaos Method (IPCM). Sensitivity equations are formulated for key input parameters, such as viscosity and thermal diffusivity, and solved numerically using the Finite Element‐Volume method.

Scaling With Bias? The Role of Founders' HR Knowledge and Experience in Hiring and Managerial Appointments

open access: yesHuman Resource Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT New ventures are expected to continuously add new jobs and managerial positions to meet the expanding demands of scaling. However, the rapid pace and inherent uncertainty of scaling often lead founders of new ventures to rely on heuristics when making these critical hiring and managerial appointment decisions.

Rural–Urban Digital Divide: Evidence From Indian States

open access: yesInternational Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Indian economy has achieved significant progress in recent years, with the country expected to contribute about 16% of the global growth. However, at the sub‐national level, economic development has been quite disparate over the decades, with widening inequality between the richer western and southern states and other parts of the country.

Inconsistency of the Capital Asset Pricing Model in a Multi‐Currency Environment

open access: yesInternational Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The capital asset pricing model (CAPM) is a widely adopted model in asset pricing theory and portfolio construction because of its intuitive nature. One of its main conclusions is that there exists a global market portfolio that each rational investor should hold in proportion to the risk‐free asset. In this paper, we demonstrate theoretically
