Mind the gap: The interplay between external and internal actions in the case of corporate social responsibility
(2016)
Research summary: We explore the effect of the interplay between a firm's external and internal actions on market value in the context of corporate social responsibility ( CSR). Specifically, drawing from the neo-institutional ...
Drugs degrading photocatalytically: Kinetics and mechanisms of ofloxacin and atenolol removal on titania suspensions
(2010)
The conversion of the antibiotic ofloxacin and the ß-blocker atenolol by means of TiO2 photocatalysis was investigated. Irradiation was provided by a UVA lamp at 3.37×10-6einstein/s photon flux, while emphasis was given ...
A simplified updated Lagrangian approach for combining discrete and finite element methods
(2005)
This paper proposes the use of a specific combination of discrete and finite element methods for the simulation of systems of deformable bodies in order to reduce the computational cost, when certain assumptions can be ...
Light-induced catalytic transformation of ofloxacin by solar Fenton in various water matrices at a pilot plant: Mineralization and characterization of major intermediate products
(2013)
This work investigated the application of a solar driven advanced oxidation process (solar Fenton), for the degradation of the antibiotic ofloxacin (OFX) in various environmental matrices at a pilot-scale. All experiments ...
Spatial seismic modeling of base-isolated buildings pounding against moat walls: effects of ground motion directionality and mass eccentricity
(2017)
Summary Structural impact between adjacent buildings may induce local and, in some extreme cases, severe damage, especially in the case of seismically isolated buildings. This study parametrically investigates in the ...
