Green Versus Brown Assets Under Stress: Who Hedges Energy and Market Risk?

Sustainable finance increasingly treats green assets as instruments for climate-risk hedging; however, it remains unclear whether they protect investors during energy-market shocks and financial-market stress or merely transmit different transition, equity-market, and growth risk...

Heat transfer and entropy analysis of shaped nanoparticles in stratified binary nanofluid flow over an exponentially curved Riga surface

The problem of controlling heat transmission and flow efficiency in advanced engineering systems, such as aerospace thermal management and next-generation cooling devices, is critically hampered by energy losses due to friction and thermal irreversibility. This study addresses th...

Decoding organic food choices: exploring brand identification, credibility, ambiguity tolerance in shaping consumer attitudes and intentions using SEM and fsQCA

Purpose This study examines the influence of consumers' brand image identification, credibility towards organic food brands and ambiguity tolerance on the attitude-intention link, grounded in the stimulus-organism-response (S-O-R) framework. It also explores the mediating role of...

Quad port MIMO antenna design for WLAN and N78 application using regression machine learning validation

This paper presents the design and analysis of a compact four-port MIMO antenna intended for 5G communication systems, specifically targeting the n78 band (3.5 GHz) and the WLAN band (5.25 GHz). The proposed antenna has dimensions of 88.2 mm × 88.2 mm (1.03λ 0 × 1.03λ 0 ). It ach...

A student-led living laboratory as work-integrated learning: an action research study of professional identity development in Malaysian higher education

Purpose Higher education faces a growing imperative to develop graduates who possess not only academic expertise but also the resilience and practical readiness demanded by today’s complex professional landscapes. While work-integrated learning (WIL) is commonly advocated to brid...

Occupational strain and post-retirement rehabilitation among older factory workers

Background Long-term factory work involves repetitive, physically demanding tasks that contribute to musculoskeletal degeneration in later life, particularly affecting the knee and cervical spine among ageing workers. Qualitative evidence on how retired industrial workers perceiv...

A hybrid machine learning framework using fractional order dynamics to predict fish toxicity in aquatic ecosystems

Accurate prediction of chemical toxicity to aquatic organisms remains a critical challenge in environmental risk assessment. Traditional machine-learning (ML) models capture static correlations but cannot represent time-dependent, memory-driven processes such as bioaccumulation a...

Corporate ESG Performance, Green Innovation, and Financial Performance: The Moderating Role of Financial Risk

ABSTRACT In view of China's “dual carbon goals” (carbon neutrality and carbon peaking), the mechanisms and boundary conditions that form the basis of the relationship between corporate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance and financial performance have not been...

Exploring factors influencing gen Z tourists’ smartphone app usage using a UTAUT2–TPB model

In this study, we explore factors affecting the intention of Generation Z tourists to use smartphone apps in tourism marketing, based on the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model. A voluntary, online-administered survey that was promoted through social...

Experimental and thermal performance evaluation of a PCM-enhanced solar water heater with a spiral coil heat exchanger

Latent heat thermal energy storage is an effective approach for enhancing the performance of solar water heating (SWH) systems by storing surplus thermal energy and delivering it during periods of low solar availability. In this study, the thermal performance of a solar water hea...

Application of information retrieval system based on knowledge graph in education

To solve the problem that the information retrieval system in advanced higher mathematics teaching cannot deeply analyze the logical relationship of complex concepts, theorems, and formulas, which makes it difficult for users to understand the knowledge system fully, this article...

A Bioactive Fraction of Euphorbia antiquorum Stem Powder Ameliorates High‐Fat High‐Fructose Diet/Streptozotocin‐Induced Diabetes via GLUT‐4 Modulation

Euphorbia antiquorum L. (Euphorbiaceae), a traditionally used Asian medicinal plant, was systematically evaluated for its antidiabetic efficacy through a bioactivity-guided approach integrating in vitro, in vivo, and in silico studies. Among the four solvent fractions of the etha...
