SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE INVESTING AS THE DI-RECTION OF CAPITAL MARKET DEVELOPMENT by Grażyna Michalczuk, Urszula Konarzewska

“…Socially responsible investing (SRI) is becoming an increasingly fast-growing segment of the capital market. It refers to transactions in which the investment objective is determined not only by financial criteria (expected rate of return and risk) but also by non-financial aspects related to environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) issues.The aim of the article is to diagnose socially responsible investing in the capital markets in spatial terms. …”

Chaetophiloscia sicula Verhoeff, 1908 (Isopoda, Oniscidea), an invasive isopod currently spreading in North America by Katalin Szlavecz, Nathan T. Jones, Franck Noël, Pepijn Boeraeve, Pallieter De Smedt

“…The affinity of C. sicula to urban environments, including residential areas and urban parks, is reinforced by citizen-science data and is most likely key to its fast spread throughout North America. Keeping isopods as pets and trading them among hobbyists may also play a role especially in establishing core populations in urban centers. …”

Motorcycle Ban and Traffic Safety: Evidence from a Quasi-Experiment at Zhejiang, China by Jingjing Chen, Qian Wang, Jie Huang

“…Motorcycle bans have been implemented in many cities across China for long time, one of the main reasons for which is the high death rate of the traffic accidents related to motorcycles’ fast speed and weak safety. This study applies a quasi-experiment on whether or not and when motorcycle bans are implemented in the 11 prefecture cities in Zhejiang Province, taking the prefecture-level cities with motorcycle bans as the experimental group and the others as the control group, so as to identify whether such bans can effectively reduce the number of traffic accidents and deaths, as well as the related internal mechanism. …”

Robust Control of Aeronautical Electrical Generators for Energy Management Applications by Giacomo Canciello, Alberto Cavallo, Beniamino Guida

“…In this paper, the field voltage is fed to the generator windings by using a second-order sliding mode controller, resulting into a stable, robust (against disturbances) action and a fast convergence to the desired reference. By using this strategy, an energy management strategy is proposed that dynamically changes the voltage set point, in order to intelligently transfer power between two voltage busses. …”
