Measuring Corporate Alignment With the Circular Economy: a Text‐Based Circularity Index From Mandatory Non‐Financial Disclosures

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transition to a circular economy (CE) has become a strategic priority for firms, yet empirical assessments of corporate circularity remain fragmented and heavily dependent on structured indicators or self‐reported metrics. This paper proposes a novel, text‐based circularity index derived from mandatory non‐financial statements of large ...

Frequency-domain modeling of floating wind arrays with shared mooring lines [PDF]

open access: yesWind Energy Science
A frequency-domain model for floating wind turbine dynamics has been extended to model floating wind farms with couplings from shared mooring systems. The model, called RAFT, could previously calculate the mean offsets and wave-induced response spectra ...

FASD and Intellectual Disability Equivalence: A Meta‐Analysis of Suggestibility During Forensic Interviews

open access: yesBehavioral Sciences &the Law, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Intellectual disability (ID) equivalence describes conditions in which individuals function cognitively and adaptively at levels comparable to ID without meeting IQ‐based diagnostic criteria. Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) is characterised by impaired executive and adaptive functioning despite IQs often above the ID threshold ...

Design and comparative analysis of mooring systems for a combined wind and wave energy system at intermediate water depth

open access: yesJournal of Ocean Engineering and Science
For intermediate water depths (typically ranging from 50 m to 80 m), designing steel catenary mooring systems for floating marine renewable energy (FMRE) platforms can be challenging due to the limited weight of suspended mooring lines.
