Estimation of Import Demand Functions of Two Key Food and Feed Commodities (Corn and Soybean) for India

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The derived demand for the increased demand for meat and dairy products is clearly observed in the fast‐paced growth of the Indian feed industry and its increased demand for agricultural commodities (e.g., corn, soybean, rice, wheat, broken rice, millet, etc.) as feed ingredients.

Food Security Strategy, Macroeconomic Dynamics and Food Import Sensitivity in Qatar

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Qatar has limited agricultural land and water resources and therefore remains highly dependent on food imports. This structural dependency makes Qatar vulnerable to external shocks such as the recent Gulf crisis, threatening food security and disrupting global supply chains. In response to previous shocks, Qatar started implementing a National

Domestic and External Drivers of Brazilian Pork Price Volatility Under Russian Trade Policies

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how Russian trade policies and domestic factors influence the volatility of Brazilian live swine prices from 2004 to 2019. We employ a DCC‐MGARCH framework, along with volatility impulse‐response functions and the connectedness approach, to analyze time‐varying co‐movement and dynamic volatility spillovers across pork ...

A stress‐balance‐based critical Weber number for droplets and bubbles

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Predicting droplet and bubble breakup in turbulent flows is critical for optimizing multiphase flow processes such as emulsification and atomization. Traditional models based on a fixed critical Weber number (Wec$$ {We}_c $$) may not capture interfacial‐stress dominance in low‐viscosity fluids or viscous resistance in high‐viscosity droplets ...

A Soft Robotic Finger With Deep Learning‐Enhanced Tactile Sensing for Texture and Softness Recognition

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Inspired by human touch, a tendon‐driven soft robotic finger combines multimodal tactile sensing and deep learning to simultaneously perceive texture and softness on deformable surfaces. A CNN‐LSTM model fuses pressure, accelerometer, and gyroscope signals to accurately classify material properties, achieving up to 95.4% texture and 97.0% softness ...
