The case for nuclear power in the Middle East and North Africa by Shihab-Eldin, A, Rogner, H

“…Several Middle Eastern and North African (MENA) countries have, over the past decades, declared an interest in nuclear power, although aside from some limited R&D; programmes based on research reactors in a few Arab countries (Egypt, Algeria, and Libya, for example) and Iran, until recently no MENA state has committed to a concrete nuclear power programme. …”

Solvability of differential Riccati equations and applications to algorithmic trading with signals by Drissi, F

“…As an application, we solve two algorithmic trading problems in which the agent adopts a constant absolute risk-aversion (CARA) utility function, and where the optimal strategies use signals and past observations of prices to improve their performance. …”

Enhancing the Oxford University Research Archive: compliance, consistency, and challenges in supporting researchers by Mitchell, T, Lindgren, T, Partridge, J

“…This paper examines recent developments made to the Oxford University Research Archive (ORA), which has been in place as the University of Oxford's institutional repository, supporting Oxford researchers, since 2007. Over the past four to five years, ORA has undergone significant updates, including the implementation of a new data model, the adoption of enhanced metadata standards, and the integration of automation tools. …”

Surfactant and polymer-based technologies for water treatment by Shen, L, Hankins, NP, Singh, R

“…In this contribution, we highlight several surfactant and/or polymer-based technologies which have been developed over the past few decades for water treatment. Among these emerging technologies, polymer–surfactant complexation and flocculation is emerging as a new, economical and sustainable process for removing the contaminants from dilute aqueous solutions, and then recovering them into a highly concentrated valuable product, before recycling the polymer and surfactant in the next cycle without deterioration of treatment performance. …”

Dynamic consumer search by Parakhonyak, A, Rhodes, A

“…The optimal search rule has two reservation values, one for newly-searched products, and another for products that were searched in the past. Depending on the search cost, firms either keep price steady over time, or gradually raise price to take advantage of a growing pool of high-valuation repeat customers. …”

Stable isotope ratio analysis: an emerging tool to trace the origin of falsified medicines by Roncone, A, Kelly, SD, Giannioti, Z, Hauk, C, Caillet, C, Newton, PN, Perez-Mon, C, Bontempo, L

“…Falsified medicines pose a serious threat to global public health. Over the past few decades, the number of public health issues and seizures of falsified medicines has dramatically increased across the world. …”

Introduction: exponential inequalities: what can equality law do? by Atrey, S, Fredman, S

“…The chapter shows how the book uses a comparative and interdisciplinary approach to isolate the features of exponential inequalities that have arisen during the pandemic and other past crises, and to lay down a template of thinking about exponential inequalities in future crises such as climate emergencies, democratic deficits, wars, refugee crises, etc. …”

The soma question: interrogating the history of psychedelics with Sanskrit mantras by Moore Gerety, FM

“…Historical narratives tell us as much about the present as they do about the past—and the grand narrative of psychedelics in the ancient world is no exception. …”

Analyzing Malaysian Manufacturing Firm’s Flexibility and New Product Performance by Teoh, Bak Aun, Abu, Noor Hidayah

Comparison product optimization performance of fed-batch fermentation processes for penicillin G production by Noor Asma Fazli, Abdul Samad, Arshad, Ahmad

“…To provide on-line estimates of the difficult to measure penicillin concentration, Partial Least Squares model was employed. These estimates were then used in the control loop and successful control of the product concentration was established. …”

Triadic resonant instability in confined and unconfined axisymmetric geometries by Boury, S., Maurer, P., Joubaud, S., Peacock, T., Odier, P.

“…In both the confined and unconfined cases, we show that sub-harmonics can be spontaneously generated from a primary wave field if they satisfy at least a resonance condition on their frequencies of the form ω0 = ±ω1 ± ω2. …”
