Designing for construction procurement: an integrated Decision Support System for Building Information Modelling
Authors: Babaeian Jelodar Mostafa , Wilkinson Suzanne , Kalatehjari Roohollah , Zou Yang 
Published: September 2021

PurposeMany applications of Building Information modelling (BIM) are already integrated into project management processes. However, the construction industry is suffering from poor decision-making, especially during procurement where fundamental decisions are made. To make the best decisions at earlier project stages, such as design, large amount of information needs to be processed and classified. Therefore, this study seeks to create a Decision Support System (DSS) for construction procurement through the application of existing informatics infrastructure and BIM applications.Design/methodology/approachLiterature review expert interviews and case studies with complex procurement considerations were used to identify and validate attributes and criterions for procurement decision-making. Accordingly, Multi-Attribute Utility Theory (MAUT) methodology was used and mathematical models were driven as the foundation for a DSS.FindingsFive major criterions of time, cost, relationship quality, sustainability and quality of work performed was identified for complex construction procurement decision-making. Accordingly, a DSS structure and mathematical model was proposed. Based on this a model architecture was developed for the integration of the DSS into Autodesk Revit as a BIM platform, and assist in pre-contract decision-making.Practical implicationsThe results can be used in pre-contract selection processes via currently used BIM applications. The model architecture can integrate DSS outputs to nD models, cloud systems and potentially virtual reality facilities to facilitate better construction operations and smarter more automated processes.Originality/valueThis study formulates and captures complex and unstructured information on construction procurement into a practical DSS model. The study provides a link to integrate solutions with already available platforms and technologies. The study also introduces the concept of designing for procurement; which can be expanded to other challenging decisions during construction.
Toward understanding three phases of individual responses to paradox
Authors: Birkelund Gunnar 
Published: September 2021

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to further paradox research at the individual level through applying a framework of three phases of individual response to paradox – recognition, understanding and behaviour.Design/methodology/approachCritical and integrative review of previous studies of individual responses to paradox.FindingsThe role of individual understanding is limited in extant research on individual responses to paradox. Individual understanding tends to be equated with behaviour, and thus knowledge of understanding is not differentiated enough, neither is the link between understanding and behaviour sufficiently developed.Research limitations/implicationsThe review does not consider the relationship to interactional, organisational and environmental contexts. The recommendation for future research is to explore individual responses to paradox more entirely, to provide an adequate ground for extending paradox theory across individual and broader levels of analysis.Originality/valueThe review contributes to paradox theory by separating individual understanding and then providing a framework in which recognition, understanding and behaviour can be reintegrated in new ways. In addition to more accurate discernment of individual understanding and of combinations of responses across phases, the three-phase framework facilitates investigation of more intricate influences across phases and paths of evolution of such responses over time.
The social network antecedents to consumer engagement: revealing how consumers' conversations influence online engagement behaviors
Authors: Qu Yan , Saffer Adam J. , Riffe Daniel 
Published: September 2021

PurposeConsumer engagement has become a critical component to many brands' relationship and promotional efforts. Empirical studies have documented the psychological elements that can drive consumers to engage with brands. However, there is a knowledge gap regarding how consumer engagement is influenced by the social environment consumers are embedded in. Taking an egocentric network approach, this study explores the social network factors that affect different dimensions of consumers' online engagement behaviors with a brand.Design/methodology/approachAn online survey with an egocentric network design was employed, and 263 completed responses were collected from college students in US. The dimensionality of consumer engagement was validated using exploratory factor analysis. The hypotheses were tested through three sets of hierarchical regression models.FindingsThe results suggest that consumer engagement with a brand was partially shaped by the attributes of consumers' brand discussion networks that emerge from their conversations about a brand with others in everyday life. Specifically, the size, heterogeneity, and density to consumers' discussion networks were associated with certain engagement behaviors.Originality/valueThis study introduces a novel type of network method known as egocentric network analysis to explore and investigate the social network antecedents to consumer engagement behavior. It advances the conception of consumer engagement as a dynamic process influencing and is influenced by consumers' social interactions rather than merely a product of their psychological mechanisms. The study contributes to a social network approach to examining and conceptualizing consumer engagement.
Sustainable corporate governance and new auditing issues: a preliminary empirical evidence on key audit matters
Authors: Fera Pietro , Pizzo Michele , Vinciguerra Rosa , Ricciardi Giorgio 
Published: September 2021

Purpose
This paper aims to investigate the relationship between the quality of internal corporate governance mechanisms and the audit issues disclosed by external auditors in their report, assuming the beneficial effect related to the adoption of a sustainable corporate governance system.

Design/methodology/approach
This paper investigates the impact of the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board’s ISA 701 in the European context as a new auditing principle supporting the key audit matters (KAMs) in reporting and disclosing auditing activities. The analysis is carried out through a quantitative methodology using a sample composed of non-financial companies listed on the Italian Stock Exchange.

Findings
Empirical findings highlight that firms having a high quality and sustainable corporate governance system tend to have fewer KAMs arising from the audit process and then disclosed in the audit report. To ensure the reliability of the empirical analysis, the authors controlled for a set of variables that could affect the audit function and for the mediating role of the overall business complexity (as proxied by the firm size).

Originality/value
This study is of interest to academics, practitioners and regulators, as it highlights the role of a higher quality internal corporate governance on the perceived corporate riskiness and complexity. It contributes to the recent debate on sustainable corporate governance, corporate sustainability and auditing streams.
Dynamic warpage simulation of molded PCB under reflow process
Authors: Edmund Sek Chun Hei , Abdullah M.Z. , Hwa Yu Kok Hwa , Wong Shaw Fong 
Published: September 2021

Purpose
This study aims to simulate molded printed circuit board (PCB) warpage behavior under reflow temperature distribution. Simulation models are used to estimate dynamic warpage behavior for different form factor sizes.

Design/methodology/approach
This study analyzes warpage during the reflow process. The shadow moiré experiment methodology is used to collect data on the dynamic warpage performance of a model with a form factor of 10mm × 10mm × 1mm. The temperature profile with heating from 25°C to 300°C at intervals of 50°C is used, and the sample is made to undergo a cooling process until it reaches the room temperature. Subsequently, ANSYS static structural simulation is performed on similar form factor models to ascertain the accuracy of the simulation results.

Findings
Results show that the deformation and total force induced by coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) mismatch are examined based on the warpage performance of models with different sizes, that is, 45mm × 45mm × 1mm and 45mm × 15mm × 1mm. Compared with the experimental data, the simulated modeling accuracy yields a less than 5% deviation in the dynamic warpage prediction at a reflow temperature of 300°C. Results also reveal that the larger the model, the larger the warpage changes under the reflow temperature.

Research limitations/implications
The simulated warpage is limited to the temperature and force induced by CTE mismatch between two materials. The form factor of the ball-grid array model is limited to only three different sizes. The model is assumed to be steady, isothermal and static. The simulation adopts homogenous materials, as it cannot accurately model nonhomogeneous multilayered composite materials.

Practical implications
This study can provide engineers and researchers with a profound understanding of molded PCB warpage, minimal resource utilization and the improved product development process.

Social implications
The accurate prediction of molded PCB warpage can enable efficient product development and reduce resources and production time, thereby creating a sustainable environment.

Originality/value
The literature review points out that warpage in various types of PCBs was successfully examined, and that considerable efforts were exerted to investigate warpage reduction in PCB modules. However, PCB warpage studies are limited to bare PCBs. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, the examination of warpage in a molded PCB designed with a molded compound cover, as depicted in Figure 3, is yet to be conducted. A molded compound provides strong lattice support for PCBs to prevent deformation during the reflow process, which is a topic of considerable interest and should be explored.

Authors: Chen Chiao-Chieh , Chiu Yu-Ping 
Published: September 2021

PurposeSocial media have become famous platform to search and share the COVID-19-related information. The objective of this research is to bridge the gap by proposing the effects of network cluster and transmitter activity on information sharing process.Design/methodology/approachData were collected by using Facebook application, which was available for 14 days (May 1–14) in 2020. These data were analyzed to determine the influence of the network cluster and transmitter activity.FindingsThe results showed that network cluster is positively related to transmitter activity on social media. In addition, transmitter activity partially mediated the effect of network cluster on the extent of information liked and shared. That is, transmitter activity can affect COVID-19-related information sharing on Facebook, and the activity effect is plausible and should become stronger as social network become denser.Originality/valueThis study has contributed to the knowledge of health information sharing in social media and has generated new opportunities for research into the role of network cluster. As social media is firmly entrenched in society, researches that improve the experience or quality for users is potentially impactful.

Published: September 2021

PurposePublic participation is essential for mitigating local resistance faced by the environmentally stigmatized facilities. The purpose of this study is to investigate public participation intention in the decision-making of waste incineration power (WIP) projects by examining the role of perceived corporate social responsibility (PCSR) and public knowledge (PK) based on the theory of planned behavior (TPB).Design/methodology/approachA theoretical model correlating PCSR with public participation intention was developed by using the constructs of TPB as the mediators and PK as the moderator. Drawing on structural equation modeling (SEM), the data collected from 485 local residents of the WIP projects in Jiangsu, China were analyzed to test the model.FindingsCompanies' CSR practice went through public attitude, subjective norm and personal norm as mediating steps towards promoting participation intention. PK positively moderated the indirect relationships between PCSR and participation intention. Moreover, attitude, subjective norm and personal norm were found to have a positive effect on participation intention.Originality/valueThis study advances the understanding of public participation intention and enriches the literature relating to CSR and TPB involved in infrastructure development. In order to improve public participation intention, companies should take strategic social responsibility actions and present the benefits and moral values of the activities to the public, and as well make effort to diffuse WIP-related knowledge through interactive activities with the public. Authorities should establish social and personal value systems that praise public participation and improve their expectations of participation outcomes.

Entropy generation and heat transport of Cu–water nanoliquid in porous lid-driven cavity through magnetic field
Authors: Marzougui Souad , Mebarek-Oudina Fateh , Magherbi Mourad , Mchirgui Ali 
Published: September 2021

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effects of Ha and the Nanoparticles (NP) volume fraction over the irreversibility and heat transport in Darcy–Forchheimer nanofluid saturated lid-driven porous medium.

Design/methodology/approach
The present paper highlights entropy generation because of mixed convection for a lid-driven porous enclosure filled through a nanoliquid and submitted to a uniform magnetic field. The analysis is achieved using Darcy–Brinkman–Forchheimer technique. The set of partial differential equations governing the considered system was numerically solved using the finite element method.

Findings
The main observations are as follows. The results indicate that the movement of horizontal wall is an important factor for the entropy generation inside the porous cavity filled through Cu–water nanoliquid. The variation of the thermal entropy generation is linear through NPs volume fraction. The total entropy generation reduces when the Darcy, Hartmann and the nanoparticle volume fraction increase. The porous media and magnetic field effects reduce the total entropy generation.

Practical implications
Interest in studying thermal interactions by convective flow within a saturating porous medium has many fundamental considerations and has received extensive consideration in the literature because of its usefulness in a large variety of engineering applications, such as the energy storage and solar collectors, crystal growth, food processing, nuclear reactors and cooling of electronic devices, etc.

Originality/value
By examining the literature, the authors found that little attention has been paid to entropy generation encountered during convection of nanofluids. Hence, this work aims to numerically study entropy generation and heat transport in a lid-driven porous enclosure filled with a nanoliquid.
