Abstract:
... We find that firms that change their corporate names to include buzzwords related to cryptocurrencies experience large and permanent valuation gains. We document cumulative abnormal returns of 30 percent in 3 days surrounding such name change announcements. These abnormal returns cannot be explained by industry factors and the small firm effect. The results are robust to outliers and to the choice ...

Abstract:
... The so-called coffee-ring effect (CRE) is extraordinarily common, problematic in industry and attractively puzzling for researchers, with the accepted rule that it requires two key-ingredients: solvent evaporation and contact line pinning. Here, we demonstrate that the CRE also occurs when the solvent of a pinned sessile drop transfers into another liquid, without involving any evaporation. We sho ...

The objective of this paper is to analyze the impression management strategies that practitioners in the sustainability rating industry use to build confidence in the reliability of ratings and explain these ratings’ lack of convergence. Based on semi-structured interviews with 36 practitioners, this study sheds more light on the socially constructed nature of sustainability ratings and the rhetor ...

Abstract:
... Industry 4.0 has had a strong influence on the debate on the digitalization of industrial processes, despite being criticized for lacking a proper definition. However, Industry 4.0 might offer a huge chance to align the goals of a sustainable development with the ongoing digital transformation in industrial development. The main contribution of this paper is therefore twofold. We provide a de-fact ...

Abstract:
... Cryptocurrencies are characterized by very high volatility, which makes them unlikely candidates for institutional investors’ portfolios. Our paper examines whether the application of industry stop-loss rules makes investment in cryptocurrencies more feasible for institutional investors. We show that volatility and returns on investment in a single cryptocurrency or a portfolio of cryptoassets are ...

Abstract:
... Bioplastics are considered to be an ideal replacement for conventional plastic packaging, but there seem to be considerable barriers to further development of the industry due the mismatch between the characteristics of bioplastics packaging and the products they are intended for. The collaboration between the bioplastic packaging producers and the product manufacturers should, therefore, result i ...

Abstract:
... Recently, it has been indicated that systematics is of no value to the traditional Chinese medicinal studies and industry of macrofungi. As a fungal taxonomist, I use three genera of the most famous medicinal macrofungi, viz. Sanghuangporus, Ganoderma and Ophiocordyceps, as examples to rebut this opinion. Generally, the well-established systematics are helpful in using correct Latin names for fung ...

However, they are not fully explored. In this paper, we investigate the effect of bend angle (θ) in the chute flow using three-dimensional Discrete Element Method (DEM) simulations. We observed a significant d ...

Abstract:
... Rotary Vane Expanders (RVE) are very suitable prime movers for ORC-based power units in on-the-road transportation sector. RVEs suffer volumetric efficiency deficits due to leakages which limit the overall expander efficiency and can vanish their intrinsic benefits with respect to the other prime movers. Making reference to a 2 kW Sliding RVE type (SRVE), the paper presents a theoretical and exper ...

Abstract:
... Screw feeders are widely used in industries to transfer granular materials at relatively precise rates. Often, granular materials can have a certain level of cohesiveness which can significantly affect the transport among other factors. The critical mechanism that can stop granular flow is the formation of bridge or arching. In this work, novel screw designs are proposed to promote cohesive solid ...
