Design, Analysis, and Experimental Validation of a Variable‐Gap Magnetorheological Damper for Seat Suspension

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To address the dual challenges of routine driving vibration and impact loads in vehicle seat suspensions, a novel variable‐gap magnetorheological damper (VGMRD) is proposed. By combining a tapered piston with a conformal variable‐diameter cylinder, stroke‐dependent, dual‐mode damping characteristics are achieved without the need for complex ...

A Chance‐Constrained Model for a Production Routing Problem With Uncertain Availability of Vehicles

open access: yesNetworks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Production Routing Problem (PRP) is a complex integrated problem that allows for the achievement of competitive advantages, such as better management of inventory, reduction in operational costs and lead times, improvement in efficiency and customer service, and better response to market changes.

Capacities and Games on Lattices: A Survey of Result [PDF]

open access: yes
We provide a survey of recent developments about capacities (or fuzzy measures) and ccoperative games in characteristic form, when they are defined on more general structures than the usual power set of the universal set, namely lattices. In a first part,

Different Stakeholders, Different Pathways: How Capacity Profiles Shape Managerial Priorities for Beneficiaries and Staff in Decision‐Making

open access: yesNonprofit Management and Leadership, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how combinations of organizational capacities shape nongovernmental organization (NGO) managers' prioritization of staff and beneficiaries. While stakeholder theory identifies which stakeholders' interests attract attention, it offers limited guidance on how managers ultimately prioritize among stakeholders in decision ...

3D effects of seawater on electrical resistivity tomography near shorelines—Challenges and possible solutions inferred from synthetic and field data

open access: yesNear Surface Geophysics, EarlyView.
Abstract Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) is one of the most widely used geophysical techniques for hydrogeological questions, such as investigating the groundwater transition zone between land and sea. The interpretation of 2D coast‐parallel ERT profiles is challenging because most of the electrical current flows through the highly conductive ...

Fostering Women's Political Leadership Through Government Accountability: Evidence From OECD Countries

open access: yesPublic Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Women remain significantly underrepresented in political leadership worldwide. This study examines how different combinations of government accountability mechanisms enhance women's political representation (WPR) as a pathway to leadership in 30 OECD countries.
