Modeling Supply Networks and Business Cycles as Unstable Transport Phenomena

, 2003
Physical concepts developed to describe instabilities in traffic flows can be generalized in a way that allows one to understand the well-known instability of supply chains (the so-called ``bullwhip effect''). That is, small variations in the consumption

Superlative Objoid Constructions in British and American English

World Englishes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates regional variation in Superlative Objoid constructions (SOCs) and their prepositional variant (at‐SOCs). SOCs combine a possessive pronoun with a superlative adjective. These function as manner‐degree modifiers in a context where the possessive is in postverbal position and correlative with the subject, as in they tried

Capturing State‐of‐Charge‐Dependent Efficiency in Battery Energy Storage Systems: A Bernoulli Model Approach

Battery Energy, Volume 5, Issue 3, May 2026.
Conventional battery energy storage system models assume constant efficiencies, overlooking key physical limitations. This work introduces an analytical model with realistic state‐of‐charge (SOC)‐dependent efficiencies and charge acceptance, predicting that system operation concentrates in intermediate SOC ranges—a critical, overlooked behaviour ...
