Study on the electrical resistance of the sleeper-fastening elements system in railway tracks

open access: yesMateriales de Construccion, 2012
The electrical resistance of the sleeper-fastening elements system in a wet railway track is a very important parameter. This is because the rails are electric conductors in the circuit of signaling and traction systems.

Changing a Winning Team—Replacement of Brominated Flame Retardant and Antimony Trioxide in Acrylonitrile–Butadiene–Styrene

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
This comprehensive study investigates reducing the amount of brominated flame retardant (Br) and/or antimony trioxide (ATO) in acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene. Therefore, condensed‐phase flame‐retardant mechanisms are introduced into the flame‐inhibition system.

Circular Economy Pathways for Airport Climate Change Mitigation

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Airport operators face growing climate‐change pressures; the circular economy offers pathways to reduce impacts and recover resources. We examine how airport operators apply the circular economy in practice. We use an exploratory qualitative multicase design based on practitioner‐generated documents (e.g., press releases and sustainability ...
