How Multiple Streams Influence Agenda‐Setting for Water Reuse in Swiss Substates

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As climate change creates significant challenges for both the environment and society, potential mitigation and adaptation solutions are widely discussed. Yet, neither challenges nor their potential solutions automatically reach the political agenda or lead to a policy decision.

Employing the Moving Least‐Squares Aided Finite Element Method to Study Heat Transfer Phenomenon in Closed‐Cell Polymeric Foam

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
Employing the moving least‐squares aided finite element method (MLS‐FEM) allows detailed thermal analysis in complex porous structures, such as polymeric foams, where the conductive heat transfer mechanism governs in the solid matrix and the convective mechanism dominates within the gas‐filled voids.

Immersed Boundary Projection Method for Boundaries With Slip Velocities

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
A formulation of the immersed boundary method for incompressible flow over arbitrarily‐shaped bodies with surface slip described by the Navier boundary condition is presented. The wall slip velocity and the boundary force are determined implicitly through a projection to satisfy both the boundary condition and the divergence‐free condition of the ...

A Multi‐Objective Periodic Vehicle Routing Model for Sustainable Healthcare Waste Collection

open access: yesThe International Journal of Health Planning and Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The collection of infectious waste from healthcare facilities (HCF) constitutes a recurring operational challenge. Indeed, despite the inherent health risks posed by the storage and the transportation of infectious materials, most of the existing waste collection systems tends to prioritise cost optimization and to underaddress the safety ...

New Thermal Lattice Boltzmann Method for Modeling Heat Transfer Problems Considering Temperature‐Dependent Properties

open access: yesHeat Transfer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Several engineering problems involve the need to model conjugate heat transfer processes considering the temperature‐dependence of the material properties. Consequently, a simulation tool capable of modeling this process is of great interest. In this context, the present work proposes a thermal lattice Boltzmann method (TLBM) for modeling the ...
