How Supply Networks Influence Sustainable Innovation: Evidence From Ghana's Public Works Procurement
ABSTRACT Recent environmental and sustainability standards in procurement increase short‐term production and operational costs to suppliers, which are often recouped by charging price premiums for innovative solutions. However, public buyers are less likely to pay such price premiums, resulting in a disincentive among suppliers to bid for innovation ...

Behavior of Long‐Slotted Perforated Steel Plate Fuses in Timber Brace End Connections
ABSTRACT Steel perforated plate fuses have emerged as a promising solution for mass timber seismic force‐resisting systems, offering tunable energy dissipation mechanisms, such as flexural and shear yielding, through geometric adjustments. This study examines the cyclic performance of perforated steel plate fuses employed in timber braced frames, with ...
