Accounting for animal health in efficiency analysis: An application to Swedish dairy farms

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Poor animal health is a central concern in modern livestock production. Despite the necessity to incorporate animal health in efficiency analysis, the theoretical and empirical developments are limited on this subject. This article appropriately characterizes the axiomatic properties of animal health within a production framework.

CD14 Plays a Critical Role in Pain and Inflammation Across Multiple Models of Post‐traumatic Osteoarthritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective We employed global genetic deletion of CD14 and intra‐articular CD14 blockade across multiple murine osteoarthritis (OA) models that vary in severity of pathology and rate of progression to test the hypothesis that CD14 inhibition attenuates synovial inflammation and associated pain during disease progression.

Operations Research‐Based Formalisation and Design of Sustainable Reverse Logistics for E‐Waste Supply Chains

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study demonstrates how a profitable, lean, and environmentally responsible e‐waste reverse logistics system can be designed using integrated Operations Research (OR) techniques. Addressing the growing urgency of responsible consumption (UN SDG 12) and the projected rise of the e‐waste sector to USD 137.60 billion by 2029, the research ...

Two-Player Nonzero-Sum Stochastic Differential Games with Switching Controls

Mathematics
In this paper, a two-player nonzero-sum stochastic differential game problem is studied with both players using switching controls. A verification theorem associated with a set of variational inequalities is established as a sufficient criterion for Nash

An Indicator‐Based Decision Framework for Circular Bioeconomy Transition in the Steel Industry: Integrating Multiphase Learning and Cooperative Game Modelling

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite growing attention to the circular bioeconomy (CBE), the steel industry currently lacks a standardised, sectoral measurement framework to facilitate a low‐carbon transition. In this study, a decision‐support framework for evaluating CBE performance in the steel industry is proposed.

Government Subsidies for Industrial Symbiosis: Is It Always Worth It? Assessing Effectiveness and Efficiency Through Agent‐Based Modeling

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Policy intervention can be a driver for industrial symbiosis (IS). However, given the wide variety of policy instruments available, policymakers should be guided in the policy design process to ensure that their intervention is effective and efficient. In this paper, we propose an agent‐based (AB) model intended to assess the effectiveness and

Evaluation of Circular Pathways for Heavy‐Duty Vehicle Batteries in Europe Using a Multi‐Method Simulation Approach

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circular battery strategies have become of major interest focusing on material availability while increasing economic and environmental benefits. In this context of circular economy, one main challenge for automotive original equipment manufacturers is that the most profitable handling strategy along the lifecycle is unknown.

Generative Artificial Intelligence Performance on University‐Level Human Anatomy Examinations: A Structured Narrative Review and Proposed MATRIX‐Anatomy Framework

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) can perform strongly on written anatomy examinations, but whether such scores represent anatomical competence remains uncertain because results vary with the model, assessment, protocol, modality, scoring, and comparator.

A Stackelberg Differential Game with Overlapping Generations [PDF]

We study a differential game, for the extraction of a renewable resource, in which players are overlapping generations of extractors. The framework of overlapping generation allows us to consider both intragenerational (players in the same generation ...

Harnessing machine learning and optimization for informed chemical engineering decisions: A styrene reactor analysis

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
This study shows that integrating multiple machine learning models with optimization and decision‐making improves chemical process design, and that a consensus‐based strategy across models provides more robust and reliable operating recommendations than any single model, especially under limited or noisy data conditions.
