Robustness Assessment of Public Transport Networks in Various Graph Representations: Systematic Review, Decision Support, and Case Study

open access: yesNetworks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The analysis of certain properties of the underlying graph of a public transport network generates insights about the network's structure. Hereby, the choice of the graph representation depends on a trade‐off between complexity reduction and information preservation to adequately model a public transport network.

Populism and policy capacity: Evidence from an opposition municipality in Istanbul

open access: yesPublic Administration and Development, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite achievements in its conceptual rigor, policy capacity still represents a relatively depoliticized concept that fails to sufficiently consider the ways in which politics plays a role in its creation, mobilization, or decay. This article seeks to contribute to this debate by investigating the impact of populism on policy capacity, the ...

Do Policy Capacities Matter for Federal Policy Design? Evidence From the Implementation of Three Social Policies in Brazil

open access: yesPublic Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bringing together the literature on policy design, policy capacity and policy making in multilevel systems, this paper argues that the effectiveness of policy design in federal countries depends, ceteris paribus, on the adequacy of federal and local policy capacities.

The effect of compliance assistance on pollution discharges and violations of environmental regulations

open access: yesJournal of Policy Analysis and Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Researchers and policymakers assert competing behavioral models of polluters. One model portrays polluters as best approximated by the perfectly informed, rational actor from economics textbooks. Another model portrays polluters, particularly small and medium facilities, as imperfectly informed, cognitively bounded, pro‐social actors.

What Is a Polyolefin? A Critical Overview of Ethylene Copolymers Used as Solar Photovoltaic Module Encapsulants

open access: yesProgress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, EarlyView.
Polyolefin encapsulants are gaining dominance in PV modules, yet confusion persists around PO, POE, and TPO definitions. This study clarifies terminology, reviews materials, and properties and proposes a taxonomy to improve understanding, communication, and reliability in solar module manufacturing.

The stratospheric gravity wave field produced by a supercell

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Supercells are a class of long‐lasting thunderstorms with rotating updrafts that often cause severe weather, hail, and tornadoes. This study uses numerical simulations to characterize the stratospheric gravity waves that are caused by these storms.
