Environmental policy and time consistency - emissions taxes and emissions trading [PDF]

The authors examine policy problems related to the use of emissions taxes, and emissions trading, two market-based instruments for controlling pollution by getting regulated firms to adopt cleaner technologies. By attaching an explicit price to emissions,

Reconcile the perfectly elastoplastic model to simulate the cyclic behavior and ratcheting

International Journal of Solids and Structures, 2006
AbstractPerfectly elastoplastic constitutive model is modified through a smoothing factor introduced by Liu [Liu, C.-S., 2003. Smoothing elastoplastic stress–strain curves obtained by a critical modification of conventional models. Int. J. Solids Struct. 40, 2121–2145].

Climate Change and Labor in a Globalized World: Mitigation, Adaptation, Vulnerability

WIREs Climate Change, Volume 17, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Brick workers stack bricks in a Bangladeshi bull trench kiln. Credit: Mahmud Hossain Opu/Disaster Trade. ABSTRACT Climate change is increasingly recognized as a labor issue. The world of work is not only a major site of environmental risk, but also a means by which environmental risks are structured and intensified.

Study on local cyclic plastic behavior of 3D printed titanium alloy notched parts

Jixie qiangdu
The main purpose was to study the local cyclic plastic behavior of 3D printed titanium alloy notched parts. Firstly, the local stress and strain field near the 3D printed titanium alloy notch was analyzed in detail by finite element method， and the ...

Porosity‐Permeability Evolution of Carbonate Rocks Under Cyclic Hydrostatic Loading: Creep‐Fatigue Interaction and Implications for Hydrogen Storage

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Underground hydrogen storage in porous formations (UHSP) subjects reservoir rocks to long‐term cyclic effective stress variations, potentially altering storage capacity and injectivity. In this study, we conduct hydrostatic loading tests on 18 Saint‐Maximin limestone (SML) samples (connected porosity 31.9%–37.2%) under various loading paths ...

Seasonal dynamics in terrestrial insect communities after the impact of the Brumadinho tailings dam disaster

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 634-646, May 2026.
Despite severe habitat loss, insect species richness, seasonal fluctuations in richness and temporal β‐diversity did not differ significantly among forests adjacent to the mudflow and reference sites. We found higher wet‐season species richness for ants, bees, butterflies and dung beetles, while termites showed no seasonal change; β‐diversity was ...

Laparoscopic Embryo Transfer in Swine: An Effective Alternative to Traditional Open Surgery

Reproduction in Domestic Animals, Volume 61, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT While embryo transfer (ET) has not yet been widely adopted in the commercial swine industry, it is an essential tool in biomedical research, including the creation of gene‐edited pigs. Traditionally, ET in pigs is performed by open surgery (laparotomy), an effective but invasive and time‐consuming method associated with risks such as infection
