A new fast multi-domain BEM to model seismic wave propagation and amplification in 3D geological structures [PDF]

, 2009
International audienceThe analysis of seismic wave propagation and amplification in complex geological structures raises the need for efficient and accurate numerical methods. The solution of the elastodynamic equations using traditional boundary element

The flexible, the stereotyped and the in‐between: putting together the combinatory tool use origins hypothesis

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tool use research has long made the distinction between tool using that is considered learned and flexible, and that which appears to be instinctive and stereotyped. However, animals with an inherited tool use specialisation can exhibit flexibility, while tool use that is spontaneously innovated can be limited in its expression and facilitated

Integrating Life Cycle Assessment, Monetised Externalities and Value Alignment for Strategic Reconfiguration of Circular Business Models: The Case of Smartphones

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The smartphone industry faces sustainability challenges from greenhouse gas emissions and resource depletion to growing e‐waste volumes. Circular business models have been proposed as a pathway to address these issues, yet their adoption remains limited, lacking integrative assessment frameworks that connect environmental performance with ...

Industry 4.0 Integration for Sustainability and Value Creation: Moderating Role of Digital and Environmental Strategy

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the combined impacts of Industry 4.0 (I4.0) technologies and digital transformation (DT) on sustainable consumption and production (SCP) and on the value creation (VC). It also examines the moderating influence of digital and environmental strategies on these outcomes.

Assessment and Hydrological Validation of Merged Near-Real-Time Satellite Precipitation Estimates Based on the Gauge-Free Triple Collocation Approach

Remote Sensing, 2022
Obtaining accurate near-real-time precipitation data and merging multiple precipitation estimates require sufficient in-situ rain gauge networks. The triple collocation (TC) approach is a novel error assessment method that does not require rain gauge ...

More Than 10 Years on: Does a State‐of‐the‐Art Review and Synthesis Offer New Frameworks to Guide Future Design for Remanufacturing Research?

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is strong evidence that design for remanufacturing (DfRem) can reduce initial‐design carbon emissions by up to 30%, and that product design can critically affect remanufacturing feasibility, yet academic adoption of DfRem remains limited.

Validating CYGNSS Wind Speeds with Surface-Based Observations and Triple Collocation Analysis

Remote Sensing
Existing validation of mean wind speed estimates via reflectometry from global navigation systems of satellites (GNSS-R)—has been largely limited in spatial coverage to equatorial buoys or tropical cyclone events near continental United States.

Blending Satellite Observed, Model Simulated, and in Situ Measured Soil Moisture over Tibetan Plateau

Remote Sensing, 2016
The inter-comparison of different soil moisture (SM) products over the Tibetan Plateau (TP) reveals the inconsistency among different SM products, when compared to in situ measurement.

Sustainability‐Oriented Innovation and Circular Economy Transitions: Evidence From the UK Textile and Clothing Industry

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transition to a circular economy (CE) in the textile and clothing (TC) industry is frequently attributed to sustainability‐oriented innovation (SOI), yet empirical understanding of the systemic conditions under which SOI enables CE remains underdeveloped.
