Systematic {\em ab initio} study of the phase diagram of epitaxially strained SrTiO$_3$
We use density-functional theory with the local-density approximation to study the structural and ferroelectric properties of SrTiO$_3$ under misfit strains. Both the antiferrodistortive (AFD) and ferroelectric (FE) instabilities are considered.

Abstract Lactic acid is a valuable organic compound with wide applications in the pharmaceutical, food, and biodegradable plastics industries. As Côte d’Ivoire seeks to strengthen its industrial capacity and promote sustainable practices, the development of efficient and environmentally benign methods for the recovery and purification of lactic acid ...

ABSTRACT How do governments' discursive credit‐claiming and blame‐deflection strategies shape perceived policy legitimacy in times of crisis? Despite the importance of legitimacy in conflictual times, systematic analyses of officeholders' credit‐claiming and blame‐deflection strategies and their effect on perceived legitimacy are still rare.

From Empire to Aid: Analysing Persistence of Colonial Legacies in Foreign Aid to Africa
ABSTRACT For decades now, Western development agencies and donors have been castigated for their colonial biases in providing aid to Africa. It is well established that donors provide considerably more foreign aid to their former colonies relative to other countries.

Effect of quantum fluctuations on structural phase transitions in SrTiO_3 and BaTiO_3
Using path-integral Monte Carol simulations and an ab initio effective Hamiltonian, we study the effects of quantum fluctuations on structural phase transitions in the cubic perovskite compounds SrTiO3 and BaTiO3.

Performance Limits of Fluid Antenna Systems [PDF]
Fluid antenna represents a concept where a mechanically flexible antenna can switch its location freely within a given space. Recently, it has been reported that even with a tiny space, a single-antenna fluid antenna system (FAS) can outperform an L ...
