ABSTRACT This study evaluates the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, integrated with controlled fire experiments, to investigate combustion processes in semi‐closed spaces. The framework enables systematic modeling of smoke dispersal, particulate transport, and hearth performance under variable morphologies and ventilation ...

Does conservation status predict research output?
Abstract The Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973 uses the best available science to protect threatened and endangered species, but limited knowledge of listed species can undermine conservation success. This study examined whether ESA‐listed species receive more peer‐reviewed publications than ecologically similar non‐listed species.

Chasing the perfida Albione: Anglo‐Italian productivity gap in the late 1930s
Abstract This paper presents new estimates of Anglo‐Italian labour productivity levels in manufacturing in the late 1930s, derived using the standard single‐deflation approach. The findings confirm a substantial productivity gap between Italy and the United Kingdom at the aggregate level, alongside pronounced intersectoral heterogeneity.
