Orientation: Global supply chains are increasingly vulnerable to systemic disruptions, especially in port-centric logistics networks in emerging markets. South Africa’s Port of Durban, a critical point for retail supp...

This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the current state, progress, and challenges of thin-film solar cells based on Cu(In,Ga)Se₂ (CIGS) and Cu₂ZnSn(S,Se)₄ (CZTS(Se)) absorber materials. The study highlig...

Additive manufacturing (AM), or 3D printing, is an emerging technology that “adds” materials up and constructs products through a layer-by-layer procedure. Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) is a powder-bed-based AM tech...

Abstract Hydrokinetic turbines are an emerging technology to supply reliable and renewable energy by harnessing kinetic energy from river or tidal flows. They are a potential alternative to current hydropower schemes tha...

Abstract Emotional intelligence is widely used to refer to the capacity to perceive, assess, and manage one’s and others’ emotions to attain personal and collective goals. This study aims to identify current and emer...

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation has been considered a deleterious agent that living organisms must avoid. However, many of the acclimation changes elicited by UV induce a wide range of positive effects in plant physiology thr...

Video consultations constitute an emerging technology in Danish general practice, offering new ways for physicians and patients to interact. While previous studies have shown video consultations to be time-efficient, the...

O CONTÍNUO AVANÇO tecnológico global não parece estar garantindo que as sociedades futuras possam gerar, unicamente por mecanismos de mercado, postos de trabalho - ainda que flexíveis - compatíveis em qualidade e r...

IntroductionThe rapid emergence of the digital workplace has accelerated the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into human resource management (HRM). However, empirical research on the determinants of AI adoptio...

Multi-channel information encryption technology has been implemented by optical metasurfaces owing to their superior ability to control the phase, amplitude, wavelength and polarization of incident light. However, curren...

This study attempts to analyse how the emerging concept of posthumanism is a threat to human identity. In an era characterised by rapid technological advancements, posthumanism surpasses anthropocentric approaches in cha...

The relevance of this study is driven by the rapid digitalisation of payment systems and the growing exposure of the financial system to cyber, operational, and AML/CFT-related risks, intensified by the expansion of non-...
