Effects of Multiple Mechanical Recycling Loops on the Material Properties of Liquid Silicone Rubber

open access: yesPolymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Mechanical recycling of liquid silicone rubbers was investigated by grinding LSR production waste to small pieces, which are then used as filler in new products with varying percentages of recycled content. Four consecutive reprocessing cycles showed that multiple mechanical recycling loops are possible without significant loss of material performance.

Introgressed Brassica napus × Sinapis alba enhance resistance to the crucifer flea beetle (Phyllotreta cruciferae)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that Brassica napus lines with Sinapis alba introgressions enhanced resistance against Phyllotreta cruciferae, resulting in reduced feeding damage and improved seedling physiological performance. The introgressed lines showed strong potential as genetic resources for developing more resilient and sustainable canola varieties ...

The benefits of a hybrid‐3DEnVar data assimilation scheme for the convection‐permitting NWP model AROME–Austria

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
The climatological‐error covariance matrix used in three‐dimensional variational data assimilation (3DVar) provides smooth and isotropic increments spread to long distances. In contrast, three‐dimensional ensemble variational data assimilation (3DEnVar) with a purely ensemble‐error covariance matrix provides inhomogeneous increments and contains the ...

Education for Problems of Sustainable Development

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Cynefin framework for decision‐making categorizes problem environments into simple (known knowns), complicated (known unknowns), complex (unknown unknowns), and chaotic (unknowables). Simple and complicated problem environments enable best and good solutions, but complex and chaotic problem environments require emergent and novel solutions.

Two hearts that beat as one: Signals, narratives, and financing (less) novel ventures via equity crowdfunding

open access: yesStrategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Financial resource acquisition is crucial for ventures but hindered by uncertainty. While signaling mitigates this uncertainty, its effectiveness hinges on venture novelty and the narratives used to clarify embedded information. Adopting a configurational lens, we examine the interplay among novelty, signals, and narratives in

Dancing to multiple tunes: Establishing legitimacy with first‐time and repeat backers in crowdfunding campaigns

open access: yesStrategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Using 14,108 Kickstarter crowdfunding campaigns, we examine three strategies to gather support from first‐time versus repeat backers: narrative distinctiveness aligning with backers' expectations of novelty, endorsement from Kickstarter staff, and campaign leadership's reciprocity of funding other campaigns.

Seek and Ye Might Not Find: The Effects of Contract Framing on Knowledge Sharing and Knowledge Seeking Qui cherche ne trouve pas toujours : les effets liés à la formulation des contrats sur le partage et la recherche de renseignements

open access: yesContemporary Accounting Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We conduct two experiments to examine whether and how the framing (bonus vs. penalty) of a target‐based incentive contract affects knowledge sharing and knowledge seeking. In the first experiment, we predict and find that penalty‐framed contracts increase employees' stress due to the fear of potential loss, which in turn reduces their ...
