Vibration Analysis of Railroad Vehicle by Evaluating the Coupled Passenger-Carbody Vibration

TRANSACTIONS OF THE JAPAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS Series C, 2006
Although the weight of passengers can be considered as an increment of carbody mass itself in design of train carbodies, it has been shown that the passengers mass does not behave as a mere increase in mass because of the existing coupled vibration between passengers and carbody.

From liquid learning to weaving learning: Negotiating meanings of Children's learning in family travel

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Children's learning increasingly extends into everyday informal settings, but what counts as learning in these contexts remains insufficiently understood. Focusing on family travel as a mobile and socioculturally situated informal learning context, this study adopts a sociocultural perspective and uses liquid learning as a sensitising concept ...

Tunable vibration energy harvester [PDF]

, 2013
Machinery condition monitoring is an established application for wireless sensor networks and energy harvesting technologies. However, vibration energy harvesters are generally applicable only to fixed-frequency vibration sources, as commercial vibration

Corporate ESG Greenwashing: Does Regulatory Proximity Matter?

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) greenwashing undermines sustainable development, yet the influence of regulatory proximity on oversight is understudied. By introducing the “distance decay effect” from geoeconomics into ESG misconduct research and using a sample of Chinese listed firms from 2009 to 2022, this study reveals a ...

Pneumatic-Piezoelectric Hybrid Vibration Suppression For a Flexible Translating Beam Using Adaptive Fuzzy Sliding Mode Control Algorithm [PDF]

, 2017
A translating flexible beam system driven by a rodless cylinder using a proportional valve is proposed. Active vibration control of the flexible beam is developed by using a pneumatic cylinder and a surface-bonded piezoelectric actuator. The experimental

Data‐Driven Analysis of Green Logistics Strategies for the Logistics and Transportation Companies: A Bipolar Fuzzy Methodology

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global imperatives, such as climate change, environmental concerns, and carbon emissions, make green transformation an inevitability in the logistics sector. Green logistics strategy formulation is an economic choice problem, but it also turns out to be a multicriteria decision‐making (MCDM) process that encompasses the triple bottom line (TBL)

Broad Skills, Smaller Footprints? Generalist CEOs and Firm Biodiversity Exposure

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine whether CEO generalist skills predict firm‐level biodiversity risk exposure, an emerging strategic and financial concern. Using the biodiversity indicator developed based on textual analysis and the General Ability Index, we find that firms led by generalist CEOs are associated with significantly lower disclosed biodiversity risk ...
