Toward a theory of Bayesian experimentation in early‐stage ventures

Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary The entrepreneurship literature has established the benefits of experimentation but has paid comparatively little attention to its costs. We develop a Bayesian model to illustrate the entrepreneurial choice between direct and experimental entry.

Performance of Closed Cylindrical Parabolic Trough Collector for Solar Thermal Application [PDF]

Iranica Journal of Energy and Environment, 2016
A Cylindrical parabolic trough (CPT) collector of aperture width 1.03 m and length of 1.82m was designed and fabricated. CPT was covered with glass of thickness of 3 mm to avoid convective heat loss.

Advances in Floating Solar Desalination Systems

Water and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
This review critically classifies floating solar desalination systems into five main categories and compares their thermal performance, productivity and technological limitations. Membrane‐based and multieffect systems showed the highest efficiencies, while traditional designs remain limited by heat losses and scaling.

Towards Season‐Specific Feeds: Maximising Protein Digestibility and Reducing Waste in Hybrid Abalone (Haliotis rubra × Haliotis laevigata) Aquaculture

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Australian abalone grow‐out aquaculture relies on formulated feeds to provide for the nutritional requirements of the animal. At the same time, grow‐out systems are subject to seasonal water temperature fluctuations. As such, the economic and environmental performance of cultured abalone is inherently tied to the utilisation efficiency of ...

Dietary supplementation with Kelussia odoratissima extract improves growth performance and modulates intestinal cytokine‐related gene expression in zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Kelussia odoratissima (wild celery) is an endemic medicinal plant containing diverse bioactive phytochemicals; however, its potential as a dietary additive in fish has not previously been investigated. This study evaluated the effects of dietary hydroethanolic K.

Validation of SAM Modeling of Concentrated Solar Power Plants

Energies, 2020
The paper proposes the validation of the latest System Advisor Model (SAM) vs. the experimental data for concentrated solar power energy facilities. Both parabolic trough, and solar tower, are considered, with and without thermal energy storage.
