Legacy effects of redlining on the distribution of greenspaces in US cities

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
We investigated how a discriminatory housing policy—redlining—has shaped the spatial patterns and configurations of greenspaces throughout 177 cities in the contiguous US. Housing segregation has been a long‐term development practice that has sequestered communities of color to areas with elevated environmental and public health risks.

Synergistic effects of supplementary cementitious materials and compressive strength prediction of concrete using machine learning algorithms with SHAP and PDP analyses

Case Studies in Construction Materials
In order to reduce the CO2 associated with cement production, this study explored the potential of rice husk ash (RHA) and fly ash (FA) as supplementary cementitios materials for partially replacing cement in concrete production.

Influence of carbonation depth on the estimation of compressive strength of reinforced concrete structure by rebound hammer.

XVIII Congreso Iberoamericano de Patología de la Construcción, XX Congreso de Control de Calidad en la Construcción
The study aims to correlate the rebound hammer and carbonation tests to estimate the compressive strength of a reinforced concrete structure. It began with the rebound hammer test, which determines the surface hardness of the concrete through impacts ...

Beyond political risk: Toward a holistic understanding of multinational enterprise resilience in the era of cascading crises

Global Strategy Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary This article develops a conceptual framework for understanding multinational enterprise (MNE) resilience in the era of cascading crises. We define resilience as the MNE's capacity to absorb disruption, maintain or restore functioning, and reconfigure operations as conditions shift.

Geopolitics and global strategy: Making money under anarchy

Global Strategy Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Multinational firms conduct cross‐border trade and investment in a world of anarchy, where nation‐states must secure their survival in the absence of a world government. We develop a geopolitical‐economic order (GEO) framework to argue that the extent of geopolitical competition incentivizes states to create one of two types ...

Prompting, Facilitating, and Legitimizing: How Work‐Life Flexibility Policies and Relational Others Shape Boundary Management

Human Resource Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As hybrid working blurs boundaries between work and nonwork, it is critical we understand how these boundaries are negotiated by employees. Existing literature establishes that work‐life flexibility policies and relational others shape their boundary management, yet the mechanisms through which they do so remain underspecified.

Partnerships for Social Cohesion and Social Impact: How Corporate‐Community Co‐Development Constitutes an Impactful HR Initiative

Human Resource Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Organizational scholars have begun to recognize the importance of social cohesion, but we know little about how it can lead to broader social impact, and even less about the role of human resource management (HRM) in these processes. To investigate this link, we examined corporate community co‐development as a particularly impactful HRM ...
