Ultra‐White Elastomeric Coatings for Daytime Radiative Cooling

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Passive daytime radiative cooling meets elasticity in a new class of ultra‐white silicone coatings. Combining high solar reflectance with strong sky‐window emission, they hold surfaces below ambient temperature under full sunlight while remaining flexible and stretchable. This combination of cooling performance and mechanical flexibility enables energy‐

A Review of Willingness to Pay Studies for Climate Change Mitigation in the Energy Sector

Energies, 2019
A wide range of climate change mitigation policies have been developed around the world and these policies have become one of the major concerns, however there is still debate among scientists about what are the main external benefits and how to account ...

Self‐Sealing Microneedles Improve Precision and Reduce Reflux in Subretinal Cell Transplantation

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Ultrafine 49G microneedles enable subretinal delivery of induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived retinal pigment epithelial cells through a 50 µm outer diameter tip. Compared with conventional 38G microcannulas, these microneedles reduce cell suspension reflux in a rabbit model, highlighting the potential of microinvasive delivery instruments to improve ...

Voluntary climate change mitigation actions of young adults: a classification of mitigators through latent class analysis.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Encouraging individuals to take action is important for the overall success of climate change mitigation. Campaigns promoting climate change mitigation could address particular groups of the population on the basis of what kind of mitigation actions the ...

Parameter Investigation for Stamp Manufacturing of Complex 3D Geometries Using Nanoimprint Lithography

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Nanoimprint lithography can replicate complex 3D microstructures with undercuts using single‐layer polymer stamps of different elasticities. By combining experiments and simulations, T‐shaped geometries and suitable undercut radii were identified that minimize stress and defects during demolding.

Mutual Adaptation and Influence: Review of Latent Dynamics Models in Human–Robot Interaction

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robots are becoming better teammates by learning hidden patterns in how people act. This review covers how state‐of‐the‐art approaches leverage these patterns to help robots not only react but also anticipate and guide cooperation. Here, we synthesize a unifying framework for these approaches, classify and review existing works, and highlight key ...

The role of monitoring and evaluation in climate change mitigation and adaptation interventions in developing countries

African Evaluation Journal, 2018
Background: Although the role of monitoring and evaluation (M&E) in enhancing evidence-based management in development work is increasingly recognised, M&E remains under-utilised as a vital tool in informing climate change mitigation and adaptation ...
