Generation of entropy in spark ignition engines

open access: yes, 2007
Recent engine development has focused mainly on the improvement of engine efficiency and output emissions. The improvements in efficiency are being made by friction reduction, combustion improvement and thermodynamic cycle modification. New technologies such as Variable Valve Timing (VVT) or Variable Compression Ratio (VCR) are important for the latter.

Decoding the Circular Economy Job Market in the EU: A Quantitative and Comparative Analysis

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The circular economy (CE) is increasingly promoted as a pathway to sustainable development, yet systematic evidence on the structure of the CE labor market remains limited. Little is known about how CE‐related job opportunities are distributed across countries, which job characteristics dominate this market, and how such patterns compare with ...
