Impact of Packaging and Recycling Systems on Material Recirculation: A Stage‐Decomposition Model

Packaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
A system‐level view emerges from decomposing recycling into four stages (participation, collection, sorting and process yield), diagnosing constraints and targeting interventions. Cumulative equivalent uses (CEUs) quantify long‐term retention, revealing marginal improvements at high baselines generate disproportionately larger gains than low‐baseline ...

COALITION FORMATION IN DYNAMIC MULTICRITERIA GAMES

Mathematical Game Theory and Applications, 2019
In this paper new approaches to obtain optimal behavior in dynamic multicriteria games are constructed. The multicriteria Nash equilibrium is obtained via the Nash bargaining design (Nash products), and the cooperative equilibrium is determined by the Nash bargaining procedure for the entire planning horizon.

From Prediction to Prevention: An Explainable GeoAI Framework for Flood Susceptibility and Urban Exposure Assessment Using Machine and Deep Learning Models

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rapid urbanisation and intensifying rainfall have increased cities' vulnerability to flooding, posing major challenges to sustainable development. Although machine learning models have improved flood prediction accuracy, most remain limited by their black‐box nature and lack of actionable insights.

Defining and identifying relevant stakeholders to advance effective conservation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
The challenge of defining stakeholders in environmental science and an approach for refining existing definitions. Abstract Stakeholder is a contested term that has spawned a multitude of ad hoc definitions. The ambiguity of these definitions has oftentimes impeded transdisciplinary research in environmental governance and conservation science because ...

More Than 10 Years on: Does a State‐of‐the‐Art Review and Synthesis Offer New Frameworks to Guide Future Design for Remanufacturing Research?

Business Strategy and the Environment, Volume 35, Issue 4, Page 5194-5235, May 2026.
ABSTRACT There is strong evidence that design for remanufacturing (DfRem) can reduce initial‐design carbon emissions by up to 30%, and that product design can critically affect remanufacturing feasibility, yet academic adoption of DfRem remains limited.

Multiresponse Tribological Ranking Alternatives of Al–Cu Alloys via an Integrated Taguchi Experimental Design, AHP Weighting, and WASPAS Decision Framework

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
To optimize aluminium–copper alloy compositions and tribological parameters for improved wear performance using an integrated hybrid MCDM approach. The Al–Cu alloy compositions were fabricated through die casting. Their tribological performance was evaluated and optimized using a hybrid Taguchi–AHP–WASPAS methodology under varying loads, sliding speeds,

Anchoring Bias in the Tradeoff Procedure Within Multi‐Attribute Value Theory

Journal of Behavioral Decision Making, Volume 39, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Eliciting the weights of attributes is a key step in multi‐attribute decision‐making methods. The weights usually represent the relative importance of the attributes or the tradeoffs among them in forming a decision. Various weight elicitation methods exist, each based on different assumptions and procedures.
