ABSTRACT Although firms that integrate a sustainability orientation (SO) may experience a significant improvement in their resource efficiency, many, particularly small‐ and medium‐sized enterprises (SMEs), still struggle with the complexities of incorporating sustainability into their business models.

Preconditioned iterative methods for Navier-Stokes control problems [PDF]
PDE-constrained optimization problems are a class of problems which have attracted much recent attention in scientific computing and applied science. In this paper, we discuss preconditioned iterative methods for a class of Navier-Stokes control problems,

Absolute value preconditioning for symmetric indefinite linear systems [PDF]
We introduce a novel strategy for constructing symmetric positive definite (SPD) preconditioners for linear systems with symmetric indefinite matrices.

ABSTRACT While industry platforms are widely recognized as enablers of circular innovation, we still know little about how they evolve to scale and sustain innovation as economic conditions tighten and circular economy funding schemes become more selective.

Connecting Thoughts and Actions: A Managerial Process Model on Circular Business Model Innovation
ABSTRACT Addressing environmental grand challenges such as resource scarcity requires circular business model innovation (CBMI) that enables firms to efficiently close and slow resource cycles through novel activity systems. Drawing on a grounded theory approach based on 59 in‐depth interviews with top managers from Swiss SMEs, we developed a process ...

ABSTRACT This study examines how plastics manufacturing firms can be classified according to their level of implementation of circular economy (CE) and industrial symbiosis (IS) practices and how such adoption influences sustainability performance. Using data from plastics manufacturing firms, we integrate cluster analysis with partial least squares ...

Preconditioners for state constrained optimal control problems\ud with Moreau-Yosida penalty function tube [PDF]
Optimal control problems with partial differential equations play an important role in many applications. The inclusion of bound constraints for the state poses a significant challenge for optimization methods.

Robust isogeometric preconditioners for the Stokes system based on the Fast Diagonalization method
In this paper we propose a new class of preconditioners for the isogeometric discretization of the Stokes system. Their application involves the solution of a Sylvester-like equation, which can be done efficiently thanks to the Fast Diagonalization ...

ABSTRACT Policy intervention can be a driver for industrial symbiosis (IS). However, given the wide variety of policy instruments available, policymakers should be guided in the policy design process to ensure that their intervention is effective and efficient. In this paper, we propose an agent‐based (AB) model intended to assess the effectiveness and
