Towards a kansei-based user modeling methodology for eco-design [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We propose here to highlight the benefits of building a framework linking Kansei Design (KD), User Centered Design (UCD) and Eco-design, as the correlation between these fields is barely explored in research at the current time.

Bending‐Stable Pressure Sensor Based on Natural Wood Nanofibers for Ultra‐Low Detection Limit

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A wood nanofiber‐based flexible pressure sensor with intrinsic bending‐stable performance is developed through a porous electrospun architecture and interdigital electrode design. The device exhibits an ultra‐low detection limit and stable operation under deformation for physiological monitoring and spatial sensing, providing a sustainable strategy for

Drop‐Location‐Insensitive Droplet‐Based Electricity Generator Using Polydimethylsiloxane Slippery Covalently Attached Liquid Coatings

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Drop‐location sensitivity remains a key barrier to practical droplet‐based electricity generators (DEGs). Here, a polydimethylsiloxane slippery covalently attached liquid (PDMS‐SCAL)‐coated interface promotes droplet sliding instead of splitting or bouncing, allowing stable electricity generation from randomly falling raindrops. The resulting PDMS‐SCAL‐

Groundwater Rise Sustains the World's Largest Alpine Water System Under Global Warming

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Shallow groundwater depth (SGWD) across the non‐permafrost plains of the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau decreased at averagely 0.02 m year−1, adding 31.44 Gt of freshwater storage from 2000 to 2020 and sustaining ∼53 500 km2 of alpine ecosystems. A vadose‐zone capacity of 426.6 Gt reveals these aquifers as promising reservoirs, highlighting groundwater's ...

Suppressing Morphological and Energetic Disorder in Copper Antimony Sulfide‐based Hole‐Transporting Materials via Ligand–Precursor Engineering for Efficient and Stable Perovskite Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sulfur‐precursor and ligand engineering regulate the nucleation, morphology, and energetic disorder of CuSbS2 nanocrystals for dopant‐free inorganic hole‐transport layers in perovskite solar cells. Thiourea‐assisted synthesis combined with optimized OAm/OAc coordination suppresses excessive anisotropic growth, enabling mixed plate‐like/quasi‐spherical ...

Molecular‐Level Pore Engineering for Precise Separation via Active Solvent‐Mediated Interfacial Polymerization

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that microemulsion solvents can actively template molecular‐level pores within selective layer during interfacial polymerization. By creating localized quasi‐homogeneous polymerization zones, the membrane achieved a 7.1‐fold enhancement in water permeance with increased selectivity.

Robust Stitching Interface and Deep Learning Empowered Hydrogel Human‐Machine Interface

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A molecular design strategy is presented that exploits synergistic carboxylate anion–quaternary ammonium interactions to simultaneously strengthen the hydrogel–PET interface and the bulk hydrogel network. Integrated with deep learning signal processing, the stable hydrogel–PET interface enables consistent signal acquisition and reliable human‐machine ...

Aggregate eco-efficiency indices for New Zealand – a Principal Components Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes
Eco-efficiency has emerged as a management response to waste issues associated with current production processes. Despite the popularity of the term in both business and government circles, limited attention has been paid to measuring and reporting eco ...
