3D numerical study of race-tracking and air entrapment phenomena in polymer filling process
Abstract The race-tracking effect and air entrapment are two important phenomena that restrict the quality and performance of injection molded parts. This study considers two types of parts with different wall-thickness distributions. Through numerical simulations combined with e...

Endogenous strategy spaces in sequential- and simultaneous-move duopoly games
Abstract Duopoly markets are widely discussed in industrial economics under the assumptions of quantity and price competition in sequential- and simultaneous-move duopoly games with differentiated goods. We compare Nash and Stackelberg equilibria in which the firms endogenously c...

Reduced contrast volume in coronary CT angiography: effects on coronary attenuation
Abstract Background Coronary CT angiography (CCTA) requires intravenous iodinated contrast to achieve diagnostic intraluminal opacification. Because reducing the contrast volume administered per examination is an exposure-reduction strategy of practical interest, institutions hav...

Shelter or Capital? Reconstructing the “Best Interests of the Ward” in Chinese Property Guardianship
Abstract The financialisation of household wealth has sharpened a tension between family collectivism and individual property rights in China, where Article 35 of the Civil Code permits a guardian to dispose of a ward’s property only for the ward’s benefit while the indigenous To...

Enabling monocular collision avoidance in a smart hangar
Abstract Hangar-based maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) operations expose aircraft to close-proximity interactions with ground support equipment (GSE), where operator errors can cause structural damage and disruption. This study presents a monocular vision framework for coll...

Reading in healthy aging: how attentional components drive age-related changes
Abstract Background Reading represents a cognitively engaging activity that supports the maintenance of cognitive functioning in older adults. Even though it has been extensively documented that reading is influenced by the aging process itself, the high-level cognitive mechanism...

Integrating temperature and CO2-concentration impact on crops into an input–output framework
Abstract Environmental Input–Output Analysis (IOA) incorporates feedbacks in coupled economic-environmental systems, driven by an exogenous demand and fixed input–output coefficients with a linearity assumption. For some environmental problems, or over longer time periods, the IO...

Land carbon sinks in the European Union are not keeping pace with carbon neutrality expectations
Abstract The European Union has substantially reduced greenhouse-gas emissions since 1990, yet the land use, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF) sink has not strengthened in parallel. The EU-27 LULUCF balance was approximately −231 MtCO₂e in 2024, while the latest Member State...
