Executive Function and Entrepreneurial Opportunity Exploitation Under Risk and Uncertainty
Strategic Change, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines how executive functions shape entrepreneurial opportunity exploitation under different knowledge environments. Drawing on Knight's distinction between risk and uncertainty, we conducted a vignette experiment with 200 working adults.

On the presence of giant particles downwind of ships in the marine boundary layer [PDF]
, 2015 This study examines large oceangoing ships as a source of giant cloud condensation nuclei (D_p > 2 µm) due to wake and stack emissions off the California coast.

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigates the hydrodynamic influence of forward transom tapering on a displacement catamaran hull using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. Five taper configurations ranging from a vertical transom base design to a fully tapered stern (1.00B) were evaluated over a wide Froude number range (Fr = .3 to 1.0).

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.‘Greening’ is often depicted as an inherently benevolent practice, turning arid stretches of land into arable and fertile plots. However, by considering a longer history of place and taking archival records into account, such transformations are rendered more complex and, often, more fraught.

CHARACTERIZING TRAILING WAVES FROM CARGO SHIP WAKE
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 2023 Low-frequency (LF) cargo ship wake is a major source of hydrodynamic energy in shipping channels, where it has increasingly been linked to shoreline erosion. The LF wake consists of a drawdown called the “Bernoulli depression,” a return surge, and finally a series of trailing waves that may persist longer than 30 minutes after the vessel passage. While

Forces on Obstacles in Rotor Wake – A GARTEUR Action Group [PDF]
, 2017 The paper describes the objectives and the structure of the GARTEUR Action Group HC/AG-22 project which deals with the basic research about the forces acting on obstacles when immersed in rotor wakes.

Formation of corner waves in the wake of a partially submerged bluff body [PDF]
, 2015 We study theoretically and numerically the downstream flow near the corner of a bluff body partially submerged at a deadrise depth Δh into a uniform stream of velocity U, in the presence of gravity, g. When the Froude number, Fr=U/√gΔh, is large, a three-

The Gender of Fossil Fuels: Oil and Domestic Perils in Mandate Palestine
Gender &History, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article explores the gender dynamics behind the rise of kerosene – an oil derivative – as the main domestic fuel in Mandate Palestine. It argues that these dynamics were constitutive in determining who began to use oil, where and for what purposes, in turn demonstrating that women in Palestine were the promoters and targets of a campaign ...

Simulation Analysis of KCS Wake Induced Electromagnetic Field
水下无人系统学报In order to more systematically study the wake induced electromagnetic field caused during the navigation of the ship, based on the finite element method, the induced electromagnetic field generated by the wake motion of the Kriso container ship(KCS) was
