E.g., an author of an article included some figures, tables from this published article into his new article or his new book. In the last case, the author may have "a profit".
A published article as i usually know:
1) they are read by specific persons (academic mostly due to some answers being awaited
2) available in some type of environment ; that is a high status office , they mostly read because of a general interest as there no bias figures in the published article
3) In academic libraries ( universities or other governmental bodies which can take reference)
overall, they are being split but not in a commercial manner. there is a small income that the publisher will receive as there are relevant information being input in the article.
profit will be available but not in a huge amount. atleast they try to cover 50% of the budget expenses and the rest is just for the sake of academia or some sponsors help them a %
The data and results reached in the article could not be used in an electronic nor print form with a “commercial” aim, which means not for making propaganda nor for marketing use.
