In this paper we present a summary of numerical methods for solving free surface and two fluid flow problems. We will focus the attention on level set formulations extensively used in the context of the finite element me...

Given g an α-H¨older continuous function defined on the boundary of a bounded domain Ω and given ψ a continuous obstacle defined in Ω, in this article, we find u an α-H¨older extension of g in Ω with u ≥ ψ....

Abstract Finding a balance between economic growth and environmental protection is a significant challenge for contemporary cities. In the last 30 years, many large cities have started integrating sustainability concept...

Underwater sensor networks are becoming an important field of re- search, because of its everyday increasing application scope. Examples of their application areas are environmental and pollution monitoring (mainly oil s...

Abstract Contractor-related deficiencies remain a critical challenge in workplace health and safety management within high-risk industries, particularly in the oil and gas sector, where heterogeneous safety practices and...

Abstract Employee sustainable performance (ESP) has emerged as a fragmented construct at the intersection of employee performance and sustainability. This review synthesizes and evaluates the ESP literature to clarify it...

Abstract Solar-powered electric-vehicle (EV) charging in tropical, PV-rich regions such as Uganda faces coupled stressors from high ambient temperature and intermittent solar irradiance, which can destabilize conventiona...

Drier conditions have been observed in Northern Patagonia, Argentina, in the last decades, affecting the pastoralism production system. In this context, two laws were promoted to foster goat and sheep production. This re...

Abstract This study investigates the influence of digital leadership skills and dynamic, innovative work environments on firm performance in China’s IT sector, with digital innovation acting as a mediating factor. Draw...

Communicating climate change projections to diverse stakeholders and addressing their concerns is crucial for fostering effective climate adaptation. This paper explores the use of storyline projections as an intermediat...

Abstract India’s ambitious renewable energy targets and its vision for energy self-reliance critically depend on a resilient and competitive solar photovoltaic (PV) manufacturing ecosystem. However, India’s heavy rel...

The purpose of the present paper is to consider the traditional interpretive problems of quantum mechanics from the viewpoint of a modal ontology of properties. In particular, we will try to delineate a quantum ontology ...

Hydrated SiO2(111) has been projected as a competent support of an anticancer drug, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). Theoretical calculations using the Vienna Ab-initio Simulation Package (VASP) were performed to study the drug-si...

The development of a novel microfluidic device that includes a circular microchannel and integrated electrodes for DNA electrophoresis is reported. The geometry of the separation channel and the arrangement of the embedd...

To develop a new strategy to target recombinant proteins to the vacuolar storage system in transgenic plants, the ability of the transmembrane and cytosolic domains of Arabidopsis receptor homology-transmembrane-RING H2-...

In the course of our studies on 3H-1,2-dithiole-3-thione synthesis, a serendipitous reactivity with á-haloketones, in the presence of excess of potassium iodide, has been observed. Instead of the expected reaction of th...

Abstract This systematic review focuses on the Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) related to a PRISMA-guided search of literature published between 2013 and 2024, collected in Scopus, ...

A quantitative interpretation of the schlieren technique applied to a non-thermal atmospheric-pressure oxygen plasma jet driven at low-frequency (50 Hz) is reported. The jet was operated in the turbulent regime with a ho...

Abstract Bangladesh’s rapid economic transformation over the past three decades has been shaped by structural reforms, digital advancements, energy infrastructure expansion, and trade liberalisation. However, sustainin...

Yeast biomass is a novel source for the production of biodegradable films and, joint to the incorporation of certain compounds from essential oils, it is possible to design promising active materials for food preservatio...

Abstract The rapid adoption of AI is transforming industrial wastewater treatment by enabling real-time monitoring, predictive control, and operational optimization. Publications on the subject accelerated sharply betwee...

The aim of this work is to assess the risk of groundwater contamination associated with BTEX dissolution from fuels as a residual phase. Numerical simulations of sixty scenarios were carried out with the software HYDRUS ...

Abstract Achieving sustainable economic growth in resource-dependent economies is vital to balancing competitiveness, attracting investment, and improving environmental performance. This study examines the asymmetric eff...

Abstract As climate change issues escalate, companies face increasing pressure to disclose their environmental impact. In this context, effective corporate governance is critical in promoting transparency and ensuring su...
