The Civil Law of Contract

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2011
The general thesis put forward in this chapter is that there is no reason to expect the economic analysis of law to be any less applicable to civil law systems than it is to common law systems, once structural differences between the two families are taken into account. Civil law systems aim at bringing together all rules pertaining to a given field in

Ionic Control of Microstructure and Lubrication in Charged, Physically Cross‐Linked Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, charged, physically cross‐linked poly(methacrylamide‐co‐methacrylic acid) hydrogels stabilized by a short‐range attractive, long‐range repulsive potential is investigated. This work uncovers how salt addition alters not only swelling, but also the microstructure and dynamics, near‐surface stiffness and charge, and ultimately, its lubricity. Salts

Photoresponsive Gas‐Permeable Membranes: Fundamentals, Innovations, and Prospects

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Photoresponsive gas‐permeable membranes can be potentially used for smart packing, carbon capture, hydrogen purification, and optical gas valves due to their remote and non‐contact activation, precise spatial and temporal control, and reversible switching capabilities.

Jewish Law: Finally, a Useable and Readable Text for the Noninitiate [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
Why would anyone not studying religion be interested in Jewish law? It will be surprising for some to learn that some twenty to twenty-five law schools now offer courses in Jewish law. The literature in English is growing year after year. And the area is

A Biologically‐Architected Wear and Damage‐Resistant Nanoparticle Coating From the Radular Teeth of Cryptochiton stelleri

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The ultrahard teeth of mollusks that feed on rocky substrates contain a wear‐resistant coating on their surfaces consisting of densely packed mesocrystalline magnetic nanoparticles within an organic matrix. These coatings display significant hardness and toughness through their highly controlled mesocrystalline architectures.

Impact of Strain in Free‐Standing PtSe2 in Scalable 2D MEMS

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Strain tuning of 2D materials such as PtSe2 opens new opportunities for micro‐ and nanoelectromechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS). This study introduces a fabrication method for free‐standing, as‐grown thin‐film channels that bypass mechanical transfer, offering a scalable, universal platform for strain engineering.
