From Policy to Practice: A Global Review of Circular Economy Strategy Documents in Construction Using NLP

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explores how circular economy (CE) principles are incorporated in construction‐related policy roadmaps worldwide, addressing the growing need for effective resource strategies in a highly material‐intensive sector. National strategic CE documents from 57 countries were analyzed using natural language processing techniques, and then ...

Nonmonotone Curvilinear Line Search Methods for Unconstrained Optimization [PDF]

, 1995
We present a new algorithmic framework for solving unconstrained minimization problems that incorporates a curvilinear linesearch. The search direction used in our framework is a combination of an approximate Newton direction and a direction of negative ...

Reciprocity on the Edge of Distance Paradox: How Sustainability Motives and Hypocrisy Shape Consumer Responses to Nearshoring

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite growing interest in corporate relocation decisions and sustainability, the existing literature is limited in its consumer‐centric approach. Integrating social exchange theory and construal level theory, this research investigates how consumers perceive sustainability‐driven nearshoring motives (i.e., socio‐economic vs.

Beyond Structural Interventions: The Human Architecture Shaping ESG Integration in Corporate Systems

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the promotion of ESG in corporate discourse, substantive integration of ESG principles into business practices remains challenging. This study applies and extends Meadows' leverage framework to examine ESG integration in UAE‐listed firms.

How Big Data Orientation and Affordances Drive Environmental Collaboration in Internationalizing SMEs

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Building on the affordance and the resource‐based view (RBV) theories, we empirically test a conceptual model, which considers how big data orientation and affordances impact the development of environmental collaboration in internationalizing SMEs. The study considers the moderating effects of competitive intensity on the relationship between

Mechanistic deconvolution of BSA size variants by constrained Raman pseudo‐Voigt hard modeling during anion‐exchange chromatography

Biotechnology Progress, EarlyView.
Abstract In biopharmaceutical manufacturing, protein aggregation is a critical quality attribute, necessitating rapid and reliable analytical strategies during downstream processes like anion‐exchange chromatography (AEX). While Raman spectroscopy enables continuous monitoring of protein secondary structure, standard data‐driven regression models ...

Gibbs energy minimization thermodynamics for CO2 capture by aqueous amines: Conservation laws, concentration variables, and parameter consistency

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
We clarify how Gibbs‐energy‐minimization models for aqueous‐amine CO2 capture fail when conservation constraints and concentration conventions are inconsistent. Exact standard‐state conversions and Reaktoro case studies show that P(CO2)‐loading fits can mask non‐unique parameters and wrong speciation, motivating complete water‐inclusive formulations ...

An optimal procedure for the unconstrained max-NPV project scheduling problem with generalized precedence relations. [PDF]

The unconstrained max-npv project scheduling problem involves the scheduling of the activities of a project in order to maximize its net present value. Assume a project represented in activity-on-mode (AoN) notation, in which the activities have a known ...

Harnessing machine learning and optimization for informed chemical engineering decisions: A styrene reactor analysis

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
This study shows that integrating multiple machine learning models with optimization and decision‐making improves chemical process design, and that a consensus‐based strategy across models provides more robust and reliable operating recommendations than any single model, especially under limited or noisy data conditions.
