Blockchain‐Based Smart Contracts in US Specialty Crop Marketing: Grower Preferences and Adoption Potential

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using survey and discrete choice experiment data, we examined US specialty crop growers' preferences for marketing contract attributes in the context of emerging blockchain‐based technologies and expanding traceability initiatives. Results show that farmers preferred traditional written contracts but might be willing to accept digital ...

Livelihood Diversification as an Adaptation Strategy to Climate Change and Household Food Security of Livestock Holders in Pakistan

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rural farm households continue to face significant risks from climate change, resulting in many of them diversifying their livelihood sources into other income‐generating activities to increase their incomes and improve food and nutrition security. In this study, we examine the drivers and impact of farm households' participation in livelihood

Quantifying Consumer Tradeoffs Across Firm‐Level Strategic Positioning Dimensions: Evidence from US Craft Beer Consumers

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Strategic positioning becomes increasingly important as markets mature, particularly in consumer‐facing industries that offer similar products, experiential cues, and values‐based messages. This study offers a conceptual model to examine the strategic positioning factors that motivate consumers to visit one local business over another before ...

Dictionary‐based weak‐form training for noise‐robust series hybrid models with multiplicative unknowns

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hybrid modeling combines first‐principles equations with a data‐driven subcomponent. Training for the data‐driven part is sensitive to measurement noise when training targets are constructed using pointwise time derivatives. Beyond differentiation errors, hybrid models involve solving an inverse problem to estimate the data‐driven term, which ...

CFD modeling and sensitivity‐guided design of silicon filament CVD reactors

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Filament‐based chemical vapor deposition (CVD) for silicon (Si) coatings is often treated as an adaptation of planar deposition. But this overlooks fundamental shifts in transport phenomena and reaction kinetics. In filament CVD, the filament acts as a substrate, heat source, and flow disruptor simultaneously. In this work, we ask: What really

A new drag and lift correlation for spherocylinders from fully resolved Immersed Boundary Method

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Many industrial processes deal with non‐spherical particles, e.g., mineral mining and biomass conversion. It is crucial to understand the particles' hydrodynamics to control and optimize these processes. To extend the current state‐of‐the‐art from arrays of spherical particles to spherocylindrical particles, we performed extensive particle ...
