Parallel Electrical Integration of Photo Bio Electrochemical Systems (photo‐BESs): Performance Gains and Load Dependency

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Parallel wiring of bioelectrochemical devices with conventional generators unexpectedly boosts output. A biophotovoltaic paired with a solar cell delivers up to 50% more power at low loads than their separate contributions; a plant microbial fuel cell shows similar current gains.

Central bank independence and the Westminster model

open access: yesWest European Politics, 1994
The article deals with and traces the current emergence of a ‘Continental European’ model of central bank independence in several European countries as well as in the Maastricht Treaty (modelled along the lines of the Bundesbank's constitution) and juxtaposes this with outright rejection of central bank independence in the UK. It is then asked why this

A Superlubricated Magnetically Steerable Microcatheter with Integrated Optical and Fluidic Channels

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A magnetically steerable microcatheter with integrated optical and fluidic channels is developed for multifunctional navigation in tortuous anatomical environments. A surface‐grafted hydrogel coating enables low‐friction actuation. The device demonstrates stable light and fluid delivery during magnetic manipulation, offering a compact platform for ...

Do We Really Need Central Bank Independence? A Critical Re- examination [PDF]

open access: yes
In this survey, we critically review the argument for central bank independence (CBI). We argue CBI is neither necessary nor sufficient for reaching monetary stability.

Central Bank Independence: Reassessing the Measurements

open access: yesJournal of Economic Issues, 1999
Attempts to test the hypothesis that central bank independence lowers inflation have not produced a way of assessing measures of independence. In practice a measure is often treated as good if and only if it confirms the hypothesis. The most well known measures are much less similar than is often supposed, further suggesting that there is no agreed ...

Multimodal Human–Robot Interaction Using Human Pose Estimation and Local Large Language Models

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A multimodal human–robot interaction framework integrates human pose estimation (HPE) and a large language model (LLM) for gesture‐ and voice‐based robot control. Speech‐to‐text (STT) enables voice command interpretation, while a safety‐aware arbitration mechanism prioritizes gesture input for rapid intervention.

Mesenchymal Stromal Cell‐Mediated Intercellular Communication: Mapping the Interactome for Skeletal Muscle Homeostasis and Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Liu et al. define a systems‐level interactome of fibroadipogenic progenitor (FAP)‐mediated signaling in skeletal muscle by integrating single‐cell transcriptomics with FAP depletion‐based perturbation analysis. Functional interrogation using a conditioned media bioassay links predicted signaling to multicellular outcomes, establishing a framework to ...

EXPERIENCE AND THE CENTRAL BANK OF THE REPUBLIC OF

open access: yes, 1996
This paper primarily aims to investigate the concept of central bank independence as it is stated in the literature. Following the theoretical approach, the true meaning of central bank independence is evaluated with special reference to the Deutsche ...
