Determining the utility of radio frequency identification (RFID) technology for disaster victim identification (DVI)

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Radio frequency identification (RFID) technology was evaluated as a method for electronically tracking human remains and associated identifying information during mass fatality incidents. Conventional tags are prone to physical damage and failure, which can compromise identification processes and hinder the repatriation of bodies.

L'envolée épistémique de la recherche comptable en économie financière : une étude historique sur la conception de l'utilité de la comptabilité* The Epistemic Rise of Accounting Research in Financial Economics: A Historical Study on the Conception of the Usefulness of Accounting

Contemporary Accounting Research, EarlyView.
RÉSUMÉ L'étude publiée par Ball et Brown en 1968 (ci‐après « BB68 ») est principalement reconnue pour son affirmation selon laquelle la comptabilité de l'époque était utile pour les investisseurs, s'inscrivant alors en contradiction avec la littérature comptable normative faisant office d'autorité. Or, une telle affirmation n'allait pas de soi.

Psychological change processes in alcohol use disorder: A qualitative study of 5‐methoxy‐N,N‐dimethyltryptamine (5‐MeO‐DMT) with cognitive behavioural therapy

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims This study qualitatively explored psychological change processes as described by participants and therapists within a phase 2a clinical trial evaluating the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of a single dose of intranasal 5‐methoxy‐N,N‐dimethyltryptamine (5‐MeO‐DMT; BPL‐003) administered alongside psychological

Yardstick competition under fiscal and administrative asymmetries: Rent‐seeking and local cooperation

Annals of Public and Cooperative Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper develops a two‐period model to investigate how fiscal and bureaucratic asymmetries shape yardstick competition (YC), inter‐municipal cooperation (IMC), and rent‐seeking in local public service provision. Unlike previous approaches, we allow incumbents to invest in bureaucratic efficiency, influencing both service quality and ...

Circular Business Models in Luxury: Impacts on Consumer Perceptions

Business Ethics, the Environment &Responsibility, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how the adoption of circular business models impacts consumer perceptions of luxury companies. Through two factorial scenario‐based experiments applied to a total sample of 736 participants from the UK, we analyse how the introduction of circular initiatives may impact corporate credibility (expertise and ...

Design Method for Local Buckling Resistance of Double Steel Plate–Concrete Composite Walls with Stiffening Ribs and Tie Plates

Buildings
An ordinary double steel plate–concrete composite wall (ODSC wall) is composed of core concrete, the faceplates, and shear connectors such as studs, etc. Based on an ODSC wall, a new type of stiffened double steel plate–concrete composite wall (SDSC wall)

The role of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) in the pathogenesis and progression of cardiovascular disease

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading global cause of death, driven by complex mechanisms, in which chronic inflammation plays a central role. Inflammatory pathways contribute to all stages of CVD, from endothelial dysfunction and plaque formation to erosion, rupture and myocardial injury.

Skeletal‐Driven Animation of Anatomical Humans via Neural Deformation Gradients

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Most real‐time animation techniques for digital humans are limited to deforming the outer skin surface. Geometric skinning methods are highly efficient but struggle with artifacts such as collapsing joints or self‐intersections when animating inner anatomy along with the outer skin.
