Mapping information systems maturity: the case of the Portuguese hospitality industry

Hospitality is a highly competitive market that struggles to improve its performance. Today, the use of technology is a critical factor for more efficient performance. To understand the perception that decision-makers have of information sy...

Consumer purchasing behavior and its organizational evaluation toward solar water heating system

Renewable energy sources are fundamental to a country’s economic growth. Solar energy is one of these resources that has a favorable effect on economic growth. Turkey’s solar energy industry is still in its early stages. Due to its location...

How to Recognize and Measure the Driving Forces of Tourism Ecological Security: A Case Study from Zhangjiajie Scenic Area in China

Rapid regional development and intensified human activities increasingly disturb ecosystems, posing substantial threats to the integrity of large-scale ecological zones. As a World Natural Heritage site and a crucial national ecological zon...

BUSINESS MODEL CANVAS (BMC) APPROACH FOR TOURISM MANAGEMENT STRATEGY OF THE TOP SELFIE KRAGILAN, MT. MERBABU NATIONAL PARK

The tourist spot of the Top Selfie Kragilan, Mt. Merbabu National Park, a conservation area in Indonesia has not been managed with a business strategy despite the community initiatives increase to utilize the surrounding tourist spots for t...

Influence of convectively coupled equatorial Kelvin waves on March-May precipitation over East Africa

Convectively coupled equatorial Kelvin waves (CCEKWs) are those types of equatorially trapped disturbances that propagate eastward and are among the most common intra-seasonal oscillations in the tropics. There exists two-way feedback betwe...

The management of tourism destinations in Karangasem Regency has implemented smart tourism by utilizing information and communication technology to face competition in the tourism sector. This study aims to analyze the effect of human capit...

The strategy of digital scenic area planning from the perspective of intangible cultural heritage protection

Abstract Intangible cultural heritage has the characteristics of regionality, uniqueness, and liveness. Its protection and inheritance are faced with many challenges, and can be resolved by integrating with the scenic areas. The constructio...

Promoting green development through improving fairness: urban-rural income gap and the synergistic reduction of pollution and carbon emission

Intervallic urban-rural income gap (URIG) poses a threat to the synergistic reduction of pollution and carbon emission (SRPC) in pursuit of sustainable development. However, prior studies mainly focused on URIG’s impact on single environmen...

An Examination of the Multiphase Darcy Model of Fluid Displacement in Porous Media Examen du modèle polyphasique de Darcy de déplacement de fluides en milieu poreux

The multiphase Darcy model used to represent two-phase immiscible displacement flow within porous media is critically examined, and the principle assumptions and limitations discussed. We identify some of the main problems which require bet...

Dislocation-Grain Boundary Interaction Dataset for FCC Cu

Abstract Interactions between dislocations and grain boundaries play a major role in controlling the strength and ductility of structural materials. Experimentally, assessing and probing geometric and stress-based criteria at the local leve...

Investigation of dipole emission near a dielectric metasurface using a dual-tip scanning near-field optical microscope

A wide variety of near-field optical phenomena are described by the interaction of dipole radiation with a nanophotonic system. The electromagnetic field due to the dipole excitation is associated with the Green’s function. It is of great i...

Dynamics and resilience of the unconventional charge density wave in ScV6Sn6 bilayer kagome metal

Abstract Long-range electronic ordering descending from a metallic parent state constitutes a rich playground to study the interplay of structural and electronic degrees of freedom. In this framework, kagome metals are in the most interesti...

Baryogenesis and first-order QCD transition with gravitational waves from a large lepton asymmetry

Abstract A large primordial lepton asymmetry can lead to successful baryogenesis by preventing the restoration of electroweak symmetry at high temperatures, thereby suppressing the sphaleron rate. This asymmetry can also lead to a first-ord...

Computational analysis of visible frequency plasmonic properties of graphene on wide band gap heterostructures

Abstract Control over plasmonic properties and local electric field enhancement has become an essential aspect of many modern technologies. Here we investigate these phenomena in graphene / hexagonal boron nitride (G/h-BN) heterostructures ...

Optimal randomness generation from optical Bell experiments

Genuine randomness can be certified from Bell tests without any detailed assumptions on the working of the devices with which the test is implemented. An important class of experiments for implementing such tests is optical setups based on ...

Phosphopeptide binding to the N-SH2 domain of tyrosine phosphatase SHP2 correlates with the unzipping of its central β-sheet

SHP2 is a tyrosine phosphatase that plays a regulatory role in multiple intracellular signaling cascades and is known to be oncogenic in certain contexts. In the absence of effectors, SHP2 adopts an autoinhibited conformation with its N-SH2...

Review of Supramolecular Oleogel Lubricants

Supramolecular oleogel lubricants construct a three-dimensional network structure within base oils through gelator-mediated non-covalent interactions, such as hydrogen bonding, van der Waals forces, and π–π stacking. These materials demonst...
