European Circular Economy Structural Typology Based on Multivariate Analysis of Latent Dimensions and Transition Pathways

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transition towards a circular economy has become a strategic priority for the European Union, although Member States continue to exhibit substantial differences in economic performance, resource efficiency and circular economy implementation. Understanding these structural differences is essential for designing effective policy interventions ...

Box-constrained vector optimization: a steepest descent method without “a priori” scalarization [PDF]

In this paper a notion of descent direction for a vector function defined on a box is introduced. This concept is based on an appropriate convex combination of the “projected” gradients of the components of the objective functions.
