Circular Innovations in Complex Systems: A Blueprint of Four Design Archetypes

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circular innovations (CI), defined as the redesign of products, services or practices to minimise waste, reduce resource use and regenerate natural systems, are essential for advancing the circular economy. Despite growing recognition, their deployment in systems of linked parts with unpredictable interactions (complex systems) remains limited

The Adoption of Sufficiency Practices in Sustainability‐Oriented Businesses: A Mixed‐Methods Study of Enablers, Challenges, and Benefits

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sufficiency is increasingly seen as a necessary complement to efficiency and circularity strategies to help prevent the transgression of planetary boundaries. However, empirical evidence on their broader relevance in business remains limited.

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.

Regulatory Research Priorities for AI Use in the Medicine Lifecycle: A European Perspective with Global Relevance

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Regulatory bodies play a central role in providing guidance that enables safe and effective use of artificial intelligence tools in medicine development and evaluation. Regulators can also act as catalysts for regulatory science research. To inform these efforts, a European‐wide survey was conducted to solicit stakeholder perspectives on the priority ...

Kinetic Contribution to the Arbitrary Order Odd Frequency Moments of the Dynamic Structure Factor

Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An exact expression is derived for the kinetic contribution to the odd (arbitrary order) frequency moments of the dynamic structure factor via a finite summation that features averages of even (all lower orders) powers of the momentum over the exact momentum distribution.
