Using Financial and Sustainability Ratios to Map Sectors. An Approach With Compositional Data
Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The article aims to visualize in a single graph Spanish fish and meat processing companies with respect to solvency, energy, waste and water intensity and gender employment gap. These financial, environmental, and social indicators are ratios, which require specific statistical analysis methods.

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sustainability‐oriented collaborations are inter‐organisational arrangements where the competencies of multiple companies are pooled together to tackle environmental challenges. These collaborations differ from traditional strategic alliances in that they tackle complex goals amidst greater uncertainties that extend beyond economic performance,

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract One of the significant challenges faced in shield tunnel construction is the risk of collapse resulting from abrupt changes in soil conditions in advance of the working face, particularly within the sandy cobble stratum. This study aims to effectively manage these sudden variations and to further investigate the failure mechanisms associated ...

Temperature‐dependent shear behavior and constitutive model of the rock–concrete interface
Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.Shear tests were conducted to investigate the temperature‐dependent shear behavior of the rock–concrete interface, highlighting the interaction between the surrounding rock and the lining during tunnel fires. Under experimental conditions, concrete exhibited greater temperature sensitivity than rock, with the shear fracture surface transitioning from ...

Elevator dynamic monitoring and early warning system based on machine learning algorithm
IET Networks, EarlyView., 2022 In order to monitor and warn the elevator dynamics, in this work, the machine learning algorithm is introduced, and the particle swarm algorithm is used to perfect the model. The model is optimised, and the experimental comparison shows that the optimisation of the model parameters can further improve the accuracy of the elevator load prediction. Then,

Design of Ultra-Low-Power Rail-to-Rail Input Common Mode Range Standard-Cell-Based Comparators
Journal of Low Power Electronics and ApplicationsIn this paper, a NOR2 standard-cell-based dynamic comparator providing rail-to-rail input common mode range (ICMR) is presented, together with a novel standard-cell oriented design methodology. The proposed topology provides better speed performance and lower power-delay-product than the previously presented standard-cell-based dynamic comparators with
