Strategic Sustainability Assessment in the Construction Sector: A Multidimensional Index for Decision Making in Decentralised Economies

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article evaluates the average business performance of construction firms across Spain's 17 autonomous communities within a decentralised governance framework. A regional composite sustainability index is developed, integrating economic, social and environmental intensity indicators.

Quantum Hydrodynamic Model for the enhanced moments of Inertia of molecules in Helium Nanodroplets: Application to SF$_6$ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The increase in moment of inertia of SF$_6$ in helium nanodroplets is calculated using the quantum hydrodynamic approach. This required an extension of the numerical solution to the hydrodynamic equation to three explicit dimensions.

A Systemic Model for Understanding Business Interactions With Biodiversity and Ecosystems

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation represent critical threats to human well‐being and economic resilience, challenging businesses to understand and manage their interdependence with natural systems. This study develops a systemic framework—the BioModel—that elucidates the reciprocal relationship between businesses, biodiversity, and ...

Diffusion principles of SF6 tracer gas: constraints on SF6 mixing distance in mine tunnels

open access: yesScientific Reports
Mine wind measurement work is an important task to ensure the normal operation of mine production and environmental safety. The traditional wind measurement method uses the average wind speed and average cross-sectional area of the tunnel to calculate ...

The black silicon method: a universal method for determining the parameter setting of a fluorine-based reactive ion etcher in deep silicon trench etching with profile control [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Very deep trenches (up to 200 µm) with high aspect ratios (up to 10) in silicon and polymers are etched using a fluorine-based plasma (SF6/O2/CHF3). Isotropic, positively and negatively (i.e.

Ultra‐High‐Efficiency On‐Chip CO2 Conversion by Nanosecond Self‐Pulsing Micro‐Plasma Devices

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
A micro‐plasma chip with sub‐10‐μm electrode gaps is introduced for efficient CO2‐to‐CO conversion. The device self‐converts a DC power supply into nanosecond pulses, producing field‐emission electrons that vibrationally excite CO2, driving dissociation via the ladder‐climbing mechanism. A scaled‐up chip array achieves 30% single‐pass conversion and 50%

QUALITY ASSESSMENT OF SF6 INSULATION AT WARU 150 KV GIS COMPARTMENT USING PARTIAL DISCHARGE ION MOBILITY SPECTROMETER

open access: yesMajalah Ilmiah Teknologi Elektro, 2009
Almost all of modern gas insulated switchgears (GIS) use sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) as insulation material. Therefore, GIS quality much or less depends on quality of its SF6. Failure however can arise within operation of SF6 GIS due to quality decline of

Investigation of insulation properties and synergistic effects in CF3I/N2 gas mixtures using the Boltzmann equation [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Advances
CF3I is regarded as a highly promising substitute for SF6; however, due to its high boiling point, buffer gases such as N2 must be blended. To evaluate the feasibility of replacing SF6 and its mixtures with CF3I/N2, a comparative analysis was conducted ...

Exploring the Interrelationships Among Supply Chain Emissions, Financial Performance, Market Value, and Board Sustainability: An Exploration of the European Landscape

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT National and supranational institutions are establishing emission trading systems and control schemes in an attempt to manage stakeholders' willingness to engage with regulatory systems and reduce greenhouse gas emissions (GHG). Nonetheless, despite the national and supranational focus on carbon neutrality, little research has been centered ...
