TL;DR: In this article, the authors employ a VAR-GARCH model to investigate the return links and volatility transmission between the S&P 500 and commodity price indices for energy, food, gold and beverages over the turbulent period from 2000 to 2011.

TL;DR: In this article, a combination of simplified fuzzy adaptive Resonance theory map (SFAM) neural network and Weibull distribution (WD) is explored to predict the remaining useful life (RUL) of rolling element bearings.

TL;DR: The authors examined the dependence structure between the emerging stock markets of the BRICS countries and influential global factors using the quantile regression approach, and found that the stock markets exhibit dependence with the global stock and commodity markets (S&P index, oil, and gold) as well as changes in the U.S. stock market uncertainty (CBOE Volatility Index).

TL;DR: This review presents the highlighted evidences on the relationship between BPA exposure and human chronic diseases and discusses its eventual mechanisms of action, especially genetic, epigenetic and endocrine disruption mechanisms with the possible involvement of oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction and cell signaling.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the relationship between per capita CO 2 emissions, GDP, renewable and non-renewable energy consumption and international trade (exports or imports) for Tunisia during the period 1980-2009.
Abstract: We use the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) b ounds testing approach for cointegration with structural breaks and the ve ctor error correction model (VECM) Granger causality approach in order to investigate relationships between per capita CO 2 emissions, GDP, renewable and non-renewable energy consumption and international trade (exports or imports) for Tunisia during the period 1980-2009. We show the existence of a short-run unidirectional causality running from tra de, GDP, CO 2 emission and non-renewable energy to renewable energy. Our long-run estimates show that non-renewable energy and trade have a positive impact on CO 2 emissions, whereas renewable energy impacts weakly and negatively CO 2 emission when using the model with exports and this impact is statistically insignificant when using the model wi th imports. The inverted U-shaped environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis is not supported graphically and analytically in the long-run. This means that Tunisia has not ye t reached the required level of per capita GDP to get an inverted U-shaped EKC. Our main policy recommendations for Tunisia are the following: (i) to radically reform the subsidies system granted b y the Tunisian government for fossil fuels consumption; (ii) to encourage the use of renewable energy and ener gy efficiency by reinforcing actual projects and regulatory frame work; (iii) to locate ports near exporting industrial zones (or vice versa) to reduce emission of pollution caused by the transport of merchandise; (iv) to elaborate a strategy for maximizing its benefit from renewable energy technology transfer occurring when importing capita l goods; (v) to encourage the creation of renewable energy projects for export to the EU with a proportion of production for national consumption.
