Online State-of-Health Estimation for Second-Use Lithium-Ion Batteries Based on Weighted Least Squares Support Vector Machine

“…It is essential to deal with retired batteries reasonably. Although retired battery packs do not meet the requirements for EVs, most the battery cells are still healthy and fully functional [4]. Accordingly, instead of disposal, reusing is regarded as the best way to deal with the retired batteries [5].…”

Do chief sustainability officers and CSR committees influence CSR-related outcomes? A structured literature review based on empirical-quantitative research findings

“…Since the financial crisis of 2008/09, unethical and obscure management strategies, which include greenwashing and information overload behaviour, have reduced stakeholder trust in public interest entities' (PIEs') activities in corporate social responsibility (CSR) 1 significantly (Fassin and Gosselin 2011).

However, according to Reinhardt et al (2020, p. 2) “there is a paucity of empirical research on business model innovation … toward more SBMs as the lack of theoretical research is reflected in the scarce number of case studies and empirical analysis in the field.”…”
