“…In this study, in addition to the RCA index, normalised RCA (NRCA) index and revealed symmetric comparative advantage (RSCA) index were measured, which removes some of the criticisms of the RCA index (Hoang et al , 2017; Kılıçarslan, 2021; Cele et al , 2022). In addition, the trade balance index (TBI) was measured to evaluate the trade balance and to create a production map (Rossato et al , 2018).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the global competitiveness of the top ten wooden furniture exporting countries with several approaches and to test the effect of export prices (EXPRs) on the global competition. Design/methodology/approach Countries' competitiveness levels were measured with revealed comparative advantage (RCA), normalised RCA (NRCA), revealed symmetric comparative advantage (RSCA) and trade balance index. Furthermore, panel regression analysis techniques were used to test the effects of EXPR on RCA, NRCA and RSCA in the wooden furniture industry (WFI). Findings Although the comparative advantage approaches give different results, the global competitiveness of Poland and Vietnam is at a high level in all approaches. Canada has been the country with the weakest global competitiveness in all approaches. According to the results of the analysis, EXPRs positively affect all the competitive advantage indexes. As a result, the competitiveness of the WFI is affected by the non-price factors instead of the EXPR. Research limitations/implications The framework allows us to measure and illustrate the export competitiveness of the WFI and permits a global comparison. Similar analyses can be made for different labour-intensive sectors. In addition, analysis can be made to identify non-price factors for the WFI sector. Thus, more specific inferences can be made. Practical implications This study is useful for policymakers, government officials, the industry associations and the company executives to assess their export competitiveness in the WFI. Thus, they can determine whether to shift scarce resources to this industry or other industries. In addition, this study may affect the price competition policy of the sector representatives in the global market. Originality/value This study deals with the competitiveness of the WFI with different approaches. And this study determines the importance of price for global competition in this sector.

“…For countries like China, which is one of the world's largest steel makers, a lot of steel slag that is produced as a byproduct of steelmaking also detrimentally contributes to environmental degradation, including land occupation problems, disposal issues, water contamination, etc. [8][9][10]. To aid in conserving the limited natural resources, address disposal problems, competing land use issues, and minimize environmental pollution, research into recycling and re-use of steel slag waste has become a hot topic in the past decades [11][12][13][14].…”

A steel slag porous asphalt (SSPA) mixture, as the surfacing layer of permeable asphalt pavements, not only ensures the pavement surface drainage and noise reduction functions, but also improves the comprehensive utilization of steel slag resources and the inherent protection of the ecological environment. However, compared with ordinary asphalt mixtures, SSPA is more susceptible to water damage, such as scouring and frost swelling caused by external rainwater intrusion, resulting in the deterioration of the pavement performance. Therefore, it is of good practical imperative to study the water stability and moisture damage mechanism of SSPAs. In this study, the water stability of SSPA, that was subjected to a series of time–temperature H2O-immersion schemes, was investigated using the pull-out and H2O-immersion Marshall tests, whilst the microscopic mechanism of moisture damage was studied using the scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) tests. The corresponding results showed that: (a) with the increase in the H2O immersion time, the water stability of SSPA first increased and then decreased; and (b) the water stability of SSPA was strong under medium-temperature H2O-immersion or short-term high-temperature H2O-immersion. SEM, on the other hand, showed that the transition zone spacing was closely related to the chemical adhesion mechanism between the asphalt and steel slag aggregate. Additionally, the FTIR analysis further showed that the steel slag asphalt mastic spectra had new absorption peaks at 3200~3750 cm−1, inherently indicating the existence of chemical bonding between the asphalt and steel slag, with the XRD results showing that CaSO4·2H2O had a beneficial effect on the water stability of SSPA.
