Downstream Passage Performance of European Silver Eels (Anguilla anguilla): The Importance of Phenotypic Variation and Rack Design

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
During their spawning migration, European silver eels frequently encounter hydropower facilities where successful downstream passage is essential for the conservation of this critically endangered species. In this study, we evaluated how three angled rack designs and individual behavioral variation influenced downstream passage success in large‐scale ...

A Semi‐Analytical Energy Model for Particle‐Based Fluid Simulation Involving Complex Moving Boundaries

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract While semi‐analytical boundary handling techniques have proven effective for modeling particle‐based fluid‐solid interactions, they can become unstable when applied to mesh boundaries undergoing dynamic motion or featuring complex, sharp geometries.

Tubes or Ribbons? Comparing Texture‐space Visualization for Multivariate Line Data

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Multivariate line data is critical for analyzing flow fields, agent systems, and dynamic trajectories. Embedding secondary variables along spatial paths using surface‐based primitives such as ribbons and circular tubes introduces challenges related to perspective, scale, and distortion.

Early Outer Hair Cell Dysfunction Associated With Educational Noise Exposure in Dental Students: Implications for Hearing Conservation in Dental Education

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Dental education involves continuous exposure to high‐frequency noise from clinical instruments, which may cause early outer hair cell damage even before professional practice begins. While noise‐induced hearing loss (NIHL) is a recognised occupational hazard among dentists, evidence regarding subclinical outer hair cell changes ...

Shark preferences: Only subtle effects of electromagnetic field exposure and substrate type on small‐spotted catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula) behaviour

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Offshore wind energy plays a crucial role in the transition to low‐carbon power generation. The expansion of offshore wind farms (OWFs) introduces anthropogenic electromagnetic fields (EMFs) from subsea power cables. Elasmobranchs, including sharks and rays, are sensitive to natural electric and magnetic fields used for navigation and prey ...

Optimal energy harvesting plans in water distribution networks considering the stakeholders’ utilities

open access: yesEnergy Strategy Reviews
This paper delves into identifying the optimal scenario for the implementation of micro-turbines, specifically Pump-as-Turbines (PaTs), in a water distribution network (WDN) by achieving the highest consensus among the involved stakeholders.

Climate Change, Demand Uncertainty, and Firms' Investments: Evidence from Planned Power Plants

open access: yesThe Journal of Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How does demand uncertainty affect firms' investment decisions? We examine this question in the context of electricity‐producing firms' planned investments in new power plants. We measure uncertainty about future electricity demand using plausibly exogenous variation in temperature projections across scientific climate models. The results show

Dynamic Capabilities as Drivers of Circular Business Models: Exploring Direct and Indirect Relationships

open access: yesJournal of Product Innovation Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Academic Summary Despite the urgent need for a circular economy, firms' transition from linear to circular business models (CBMs) remains slow. While previous research suggests that dynamic capabilities are the key drivers of this transition, it assumes a direct link, overlooking that these capabilities can facilitate change but do not ...
