Voices From the Coast: Stakeholder Participation and Perception on Creating a Marine Protected Area
ABSTRACT This study explores participatory processes in the context of marine conservation, with a specific focus on recent initiatives undertaken by the Apulia region in Italy to establish a new Marine Protected Area (MPA). Employing a qualitative cross‐sectional methodology, the study investigates how local communities perceive and engage with the ...

Standard Inelastic Shocks and the Dynamics of Unilateral Constraints [PDF]
This paper is devoted to mechanical systems with a finite number of degrees of freedom let $q^1, \ldots, q^n$ denote (possibly local) coordinates inthe configuration manifold $Q$. In addition to the constraints, bilateral and frictionless, which have permitted such a finite-dimensional parametrization of $Q$ , we assume the system submitted to a finite

ABSTRACT In a macroeconomic environment characterised by systemic disruptions and global uncertainty, companies are forced to reconfigure their sustainability strategies. This study examines the combined impact of geopolitical and climate risks on corporate commitment to and actual progress toward the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals ...

Analysis of a contact problem with unilateral constraint and slip-dependent friction
International audienceWe consider a mathematical model which describes the equilibrium of an elastic body in frictional contact with an obstacle. The contact is modelled with normal compliance and unilateral constraint, associated with a slip-dependent ...

Implant‐related orofacial pain managed with implant apicoectomy: A case report
Abstract Background In recent years, the use of implants has emerged as a widely accepted method for the replacement of missing teeth. Although rare, chronic pain associated with implant placement has been reported in the literature. Conversely, apicoectomy, the removal of the apical portion has been integrated into the implantology field in cases with

In this manuscript, we study a contact problem between an elasticviscoplastic body and an obstacle. The contact is quasistatic and it is described with a normal damped response condition with friction and unilateral constraint.

ABSTRACT Background Percutaneous femoral access serves as the cornerstone of endovascular therapy of lower extremity arterial disease. In complex cases, the arterial disease of lower extremity are involve in ipsilateral iliac artery pathology, which conventional treatment strategies typically require multiple punctures or staged procedures.

Friction-induced reverse chatter in rigid-body mechanisms with impacts
The focus of this paper is on the possibility of formulating a consistent and unambiguous forward-simulation model of planar rigid-body mechanical systems with isolated points of intermittent or sustained contact with rigid constraining surfaces in the ...

ABSTRACT The relationship between board governance and corporate carbon emission disclosure remains persistently inconsistent across the empirical literature, despite decades of accumulated evidence. Drawing on agency, stakeholder, legitimacy, institutional, and upper echelons perspectives within a single analytical framework, we conduct a three‐level ...

A novel graphene‐based broad‐spectrum infrared (BSIR) device is developed for the noninvasive treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC). BSIR irradiation effectively alleviates colonic inflammation and accelerates mucosal recovery by inducing the systemic relocation of T lymphocytes to the spleen.
