Sailing From Penalties to Accountability: Business Strategies and Governance for Firms to Innovate After Environmental Misconduct

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Firms' continuous pursuit of making a profit in the competitive market may ignore the actions related to environmental responsibilities. This set of actions for financial gains constitutes environmental misconduct, which not only harms ecosystems and communities but also brings reputational damage. Negative press and social media amplification

Cyclic response of RC beam-column joints reinforced with plain bars: an experimental testing campaign [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Existing reinforced concrete (RC) buildings constructed until the mid-70’s, with plain reinforcing bars, are expected to behave poorly when subjected to earthquake actions.

Identifying the Crack Nature Using b-Value Acoustic Emission Signal Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Concrete is an important constituent of structures. The strength performance of the concrete decrease due to several factors. Concrete suffers from deterioration at a later stage.

Analysis of FRP shear strengthening solutions for reinforced concrete beams considering debonding failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In this paper, a fiber beam model previously developed by the authors for the nonlinear analysis of strengthened elements, including the effects of shear, is used to predict the response of reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened in shear with fiber ...

A new reinforced concrete beam [PDF]

open access: yesWIT Transactions on The Built Environment, 2012
The introduction of high strength concrete and steel reduces the size of structural members whilst having the same load carrying capacity and a resultant saving on construction time, material, labour and space. Therefore, using both high strength steel and high strength concrete in construction is very important for producing a lightweight structure ...

Eco‐Innovation, Economic Complexity, and Sustainability: A Bibliometric and Systematic Literature Review

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study systematizes the literature on eco‐innovation and economic complexity, aiming to understand how the sophistication of productive structures shapes countries' capacity to develop environmentally responsible innovations, and how eco‐innovation may, in turn, influence productive sophistication.
