A Design Method for Rail Profiles in Switch Panel of Turnout Based on the Contact Stress Analysis

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2020
Contact stress between wheel and rail is believed to cause damage to the rail. The relationship between the contact stress and the radius of the rail is initially based on the Hertz contact theory.

Firm turnover under asymmetric information: Tanzania's agro‐dealer sector

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract We study firm turnover (i.e., entry and exit) and its consumer implications in a market characterized by asymmetric information. Using a three‐round census of agro‐dealers in Tanzania's Morogoro Region, we document annual firm entry and exit rates of 33% and 17%, respectively.

Corporate ESG Greenwashing: Does Regulatory Proximity Matter?

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) greenwashing undermines sustainable development, yet the influence of regulatory proximity on oversight is understudied. By introducing the “distance decay effect” from geoeconomics into ESG misconduct research and using a sample of Chinese listed firms from 2009 to 2022, this study reveals a ...

Safety Envelope Management Method for Marshaled Trains Based on Time Delay Protection

open access: yesChengshi guidao jiaotong yanjiu
[Objective] In flexible marshaled trains, the communication delay between the master railcar, subordinate railcar and ZC (zone controller) exhibits asynchrony, leading to potential issues such as overlapping, misalignment, and discontinuity in the safety

Influence of Wheel Profile Wear Coupled with Wheel Diameter Difference on the Dynamic Performance of Subway Vehicles

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2021
In view of the coexistence of wheel profile wear (WPW) and wheel diameter difference (WDD) on an actual subway line, a dynamic analysis method based on coupling between WPW and equivalent in-phase WDD was proposed. Based on the measurements from a subway

How Circular Innovation Is Learned: A Process Study of Modularity‐Based Initiatives in Industrial Firms

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circular innovation (CI) research has identified a wide range of circular strategies and design approaches, yet offers limited insight into how CI evolves as a learning process within firms and which governance mechanisms guide this progression. Drawing on organizational learning (OL), this study examines how exploration and exploitation shape
