Simplified Elastic Model for Restraining Effects of Backfill Soil on Integral bridges
, 1999 This paper presents the formulation of a simple method for the prediction of the additional stresses induced in frame type integral bridges due to thermal expansion of the deck. These stresses are controlled to a large extent by the restraint provided to

Free Trade Zones and Corporate ESG: Evidence From a Quasi‐Natural Experiment in China
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines how China's Pilot Free Trade Zones (FTZs) influence corporate ESG performance. Using a staggered difference‐in‐differences model on Chinese listed firms from 2009 to 2024, we combine coarsened exact matching (CEM) and geography‐based instrumental variables to ensure robust identification.
