Abstract
This paper describes the results for magnetic damping in torsional mode (TEAM problem 16). A total of six solutions are presented and compared with experimental results. The problem is treated as a coupled electromagnetomechanical one. In general numerical predictions agree well with experiment.

Abstract
Purpose
To provide a selective bibliography for researchers and graduate students who have an interest in induction processes applied to the electromagnetic processing of materials.
Design/methodology/approach
The objective is to provide references that identify seminal, early work, and references that represent the current state of the art. References are listed in categories that cover the broad range of induction modeling and application issues.
Findings
A brief overview of the key areas in induction processing of materials is provided, but greater emphasis and space is devoted to the references provided.
Research limitations/implications
The middle years of each topic area are not covered.
Practical implications
A very comprehensive coverage of material is provided to those with an interest in induction processing of materials.
Originality/value
This paper fulfils an identified information/resources need.

Abstract
Solves a coupled electromagnetic‐mechanical problem ‐ that of a cantilevered conductive plate in crossed steady and time‐varying magnetic fields ‐ by using a semi‐analytical method and an eddy current model. Assumes that the magnetic flux variation induces two electromotive forces to the plate; one due to the time‐varying magnetic field and the other to the plate movement in the steady magnetic field. Considers two equivalent LR circuits and notes that the superposition of their currents yields the total circulating current in the plate. Couples this electromagnetic model to the one‐dimensional beam bending model, adopted for the structural analysis of the problem and derives the system of the coupled electromagnetic‐mechanical equations. Calculates analytically some of the parameters involved in these equations so that the numerical computation of the remaining unknowns is very rapid. Concludes that the results are in agreement with the experiment and with results obtained by numerical methods treating, in three dimensions, the electromagnetic aspects of the problem. Notes that the fully numerical methods are very much CPU time consuming.

Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this study is to empirically analyse the fiscal revenue implications for oil-dependent African countries in the face of low-carbon energy transition (LET).
Design/methodology/approach
The study combined the novel fully modified ordinary least squares, dynamic ordinary least squares and canonical cointegrating regressions estimators to analyse secondary data between 1990 and 2020 for the three major oil-dependent African Countries (Algeria, Angola and Nigeria).
Findings
The result shows that LET reduces oil revenue and non-revenue for specific countries (Algeria, Angola and Nigeria) and the panel, suggesting that low-carbon energy transiting is lowering the fiscal revenue of oil-dependent African nations.
Research limitations/implications
The seeming weakness of this study is its inability to broaden the scope to include all oil-producing African economies. However, since the study selected Africa’s top three oil-producing states, the sample can serve as a model for others with lesser crude oil outputs.
Practical implications
Oil-dependent African countries must urgently engage in sincere economic diversification in sectors like industry and manufacturing, the service sector and human capital development to promote economic transformation that will enhance fiscal revenue.
Originality/value
With the pace of energy transition towards low-carbon energy, it is not business as usual for oil-rich African countries (Algeria, Angola and Nigeria) due to fluctuating demand and price. As a result, it becomes worthy to examine how the transition is affecting oil-dependent economies in Africa. Also, this study’s method is unique as it has not been used in a similar study for Africa.

Abstract
Japanese‐focused management papers were examined to answer four questions: (1) Has there been a relative increase in the proportion of Japanese‐focused papers published? (2) Has there been a relative increase in the proportion of Japanese‐focused Organizational Behavior (OB) papers published? (3) What is the nature of Japanese‐focused OB papers? and (4) Are there “gaps” in the Japanese‐focused OB literature? The paper particularly reports current content appearing between 1994 and 2001 juxtaposed with that reported earlier by Godkin, Endoh, and Cahill (1995) appearing between 1981 and 1993.

Abstract
Purpose
This study aims to enhance knowledge on marketing strategies to increase repeat visitors. Furthermore, the authors suggest using appropriate destination information tailored to first-time visitors and repeat visitors as social capital.
Design/methodology/approach
This study compares the differences in satisfaction between first-time foreign tourists and those repeat visiting. The authors apply a theoretical framework based on optimal distinctiveness theory (ODT) and consumer knowledge to determine which actions maximize the satisfaction of each group. Then, the relationships among assimilation desire, differentiation desire and satisfaction are quantitatively analyzed.
Findings
The results show the difference in the relationship between assimilation and travel satisfaction for first-time visitors and repeat visitors. First-time visitors are satisfied with popular sightseeing spots with higher assimilation level, whereas repeat visitors are satisfied with moderately unpopular sightseeing spots with lower assimilation level. The results clarify that information reflecting only the popularity of destinations is significantly effective for first-time visitors, but unsuitable for repeat visitors. Therefore, it would be possible to propose to repeat visitors a combination of “moderately differentiated” destinations.
Originality/value
The first contribution is that on the basis of Brewer (1991), the quantitative analysis confirmed that the social identity of an individual changes from assimilation to differentiation with the accumulation of experience until the optimal point is found. The second contribution is that we combined several fields such as ODT (Brewer, 1991), familiarity (Alba and Hutchinson, 1987), trial/repeat behavior (Iyengar et al., 2015) and reference groups (Peter & Olson, 2010). The third contribution is that the authors proposed marketing strategies on the basis of the empirical analysis to increase the number of inbound tourists.
