Comparative assessment of volume‐of‐fluid (VOF) multiphase solvers for viscoplastic flow over grooved patterned surfaces

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Accurately simulating multiphase flows at low capillary numbers remains challenging due to spurious currents and interface discretization errors. We present a systematic comparison of four volume‐of‐fluid (VOF) solvers within the OpenFOAM framework for pressure‐driven Poiseuille–Bingham flow over grooved surfaces: interFoam with classical ...

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in Mining: An Integrated Institutional and Agency Theory Perspective

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mining is one of the foundations of economic development but has historically been associated with severe socioenvironmental impacts, such as ecosystem degradation, displacement of traditional communities, and large‐scale disasters. In this context, corporate social responsibility (CSR) plays a central role as a mechanism for legitimizing ...

Tracking buoys for oil spills

open access: yes, 2005
pgs. 8523-8534The use of tracking buoys in oil spill response, planning, and training and criteria for the selection of these buoys were studied in conjunction with an experiment conducted in the Gulf of Mexico during March 1994 on the relative motions ...

Do Investors React Differently to GHG Emission in Stock Pricing Across Firms? Evidence From Commonwealth African Countries Using a Novel Wavelet‐Enhanced QQR Approach

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the intricate and asymmetric relationship between corporate greenhouse gas emission disclosure and stock returns and crash risks, focusing on listed firms in six Commonwealth African countries characterized by regulatory fragility, limited investor protection, and growing climate vulnerability.

Natural attenuation and bioremediation of Prestige fuel oil along the Atlantic coast of Galicia (Spain)

open access: yes, 2006
Heavy fuel oil spilled from the oil tanker Prestige in November 2002 affected hundreds of km of Spanish shoreline. We carried out a two year study at two highly contaminated sites in order to monitor natural attenuation of the residues coating shore ...

CEO Duality and Corporate Social Responsibility. A Literature Review With a Focus on Country Effects

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent years, many researchers have become interested in the relationship between CEO duality (where one individual serves as both CEO and board chair) and CSR outcomes. Given the varied research results, this structured literature review concentrates on the country effects of this dynamic link.

Failure characteristics analysis of the inclined interlayer during water‐soluble cavity construction of underground salt caverns for large‐scale energy storage

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
In the process of water‐soluble cavern construction of salt cavern energy storage, since the interlayer does not dissolve in water easily, sudden collapse will cause engineering accidents such as bending and damage of the inner tube of the cavern.

Research progress and current status of dynamic wave propagation characteristics in rock mass: A review

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This review elucidates the velocity–dispersion–attenuation coupling mechanisms of wave propagation in rock masses, compares six representative models, and reveals how pressure, temperature, mineral composition, and anisotropy jointly control dynamic responses in complex geological media.
