This case study examines the development of a reusable packaging intervention in Banyuwangi, Indonesia, informed by transfer-learning from Alner’s operational reuse model in Jakarta. The case combines insights from a 2024 pilot in Banyuwangi with operational evidence from Jakarta and situates...

Uncrewed Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have become key enabling platforms for low-altitude economic networks, yet achieving efficient and adaptive optimization under resource-constrained and dynamic environments remains challenging. This paper investigates language models for UAV-enabled Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) ...

Synchronization refers to the coordination of different time schemes. How the time schemes held by persons are synchronized towards specific purposes in a social context will depend on the arrangements of power that hold in such contexts. The notion of historicity is also connected...

Three-dimensional digital rock reconstruction is fundamental for characterizing pore-scale processes and simulating subsurface transport phenomena. Conventional imaging techniques face a trade-off between resolution and field of view, limiting their ability to simultaneously capture fine structures and representativ...

High-resolution digital rock images provide the foundation for pore-scale reservoir characterization, seepage simulation, and multi-scale flow analysis. However, the inherent trade-off between field of view and spatial resolution in micro-computed tomography limits the acquisition of high-resolution images over...

This paper examines how efficiently individuals and societies transform economic and social resources into subjective well-being. We propose an ordered probit stochastic frontier model that explicitly accounts for the ordinal nature of life satisfaction data while jointly estimating well-being shortfa...

This report summarises evidence on how placing people at the heart of climate adaptation policy and action can improve outcomes.

This study examines the relationship between country-level digital access and vulnerability to modern slavery, focussing on countries committed to achieving United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 8.7. The study draws on information poverty theory to frame analysis of the role of d...

This paper argues that gasoline price fluctuations affect inflation through changes in consumer expectations about future energy costs. More precisely, we use data from the US Michigan Survey of Consumers and estimate a Structural VAR model to show that long-run gasoline price expectati...
