The analysis of complex phonetic elements in Bura and the syllable

Studies in African Linguistics, 1983
This paper examines those complex phonetic elements in Bura (and related languages such as Margi) which have been described by earlier scholars as unitary segments having a labial-alveolar double articulation.

Government Subsidies for Industrial Symbiosis: Is It Always Worth It? Assessing Effectiveness and Efficiency Through Agent‐Based Modeling

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Policy intervention can be a driver for industrial symbiosis (IS). However, given the wide variety of policy instruments available, policymakers should be guided in the policy design process to ensure that their intervention is effective and efficient. In this paper, we propose an agent‐based (AB) model intended to assess the effectiveness and

Decarbonization in Financial Turbulent Times: Global Value Chains and Regulatory Framework

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how participation in global value chains (GVCs) influences carbon emissions amid financial turbulence, with attention to cross‐country heterogeneity and distributional dynamics. Although existing research has explored trade–environment linkages, limited attention has been given to how GVC integration interacts with ...

Asymptotic behaviour of massless fields and kinematic duality between interior null cones and null infinity

Journal of High Energy Physics
The relation between two branches of solutions (radiative and subradiative) of wave equations on Minkowski spacetime is investigated, for any integer spin, in flat Bondi coordinates where remarkable simplifications occur and allow for exact boundary-to ...

An Integral Representation of Standard Automorphic L Functions for Unitary Groups

International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2007
Let F be a number field, G a quasi-split unitary group of rank n. We show that given an irreducible cuspidal automorphic representation π of G(A), its (partial) L function LS(s,π,σ) can be represented by a Rankin-Selberg-type integral involving cusp ...

Conceptualizing Corporate Political Activity for Sustainability Governance—The CPA Cube

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainability transformations in the economy, and related public policy decisions, are highly contested, attracting business involvement. To better understand how business influence on government impacts the success or failure of sustainability governance efforts, this paper extends the literature on corporate political activity (CPA) by ...

Quantifying the Unitary Generation of Coherence from Thermal Quantum Systems

Entropy, 2019
Coherence is associated with transient quantum states; in contrast, equilibrium thermal quantum systems have no coherence. We investigate the quantum control task of generating maximum coherence from an initial thermal state employing an external field ...

Spouted bed drying parameters and adjuvant effects on polyphenol retention and antioxidant activity in mango peel powders

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Spouted bed drying of mango peels with colloidal SiO2 and corn starch produces a free‐flowing powder with reduced agglomeration, increased drying yield, and preserved antioxidant and polyphenol content. Abstract The production of polyphenol‐rich powders is a promising strategy for valorizing agro‐industrial byproducts. This study evaluated drying yield,

Economic and environmental implications of the development of UASB reactors in Mexico for sustainable industrial wastewater treatment

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The objective of this work is to demonstrate that the inclusion of an up‐flow anaerobic sludge bed (UASB reactor) within an industrial wastewater treatment plant reduces the plant's investment and operating costs compared to a system based solely on conventional complete‐mix activated sludge (CMAS), operating under the same design principles ...

Tokenism or Catalytic? Exploring Board Gender Diversity Through the Lens of SDG 9 Outcomes in the EU Context

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explores the relationship between Executive gender diversity (EGD) and the achievement of Sustainable Development Goal 9 (SDG 9—Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure) in the European Union. It investigates whether female representation in corporate governance contributes to innovation‐driven sustainability.
