Technology adoption and club convergence [PDF]

open access: yes
Although the importance of technology adoption has been acknowledged, nevertheless, at a more general level, a critical question arises: how do the overall infrastructure conditions affect the absorptive ability of a regional economy?

Corporate tax rates in the European Union: convergence peculiarities

open access: yesEntrepreneurship and Sustainability Issues
This paper analyses the convergence dynamics of statutory and effective corporate income tax rates within the European Union (EU) from 2004 to 2023, with the goal of determining whether member states are moving toward a single common tax level or forming

Nitride MXenes Beyond Carbides: Bridging the Gap Between Computational Prediction and Experimental Realization

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Nitride MXenes remain constrained by a persistent gap between computational prediction and experimental realization. This Review identifies the thermodynamic, kinetic, and chemical barriers limiting their synthesis, critically evaluates emerging fabrication routes, and proposes a multidimensional computational‐experimental framework to accelerate the ...

The Maastricht Criteria and the Euro. Has the Convergence Continued? [PDF]

open access: yes
We analyze the performance of the Maastricht convergence criteria (inflation, long-term interest rate, annual and overall public debt) of the European Monetary Union (EMU) that led to the introduction of the Euro on Jan.

CONDITIONAL CONVERGENCE: AN ANALYSIS OF MUNICIPAL CONVERGENCE CLUBS IN BRAZIL

open access: yes, 2020
This paper analyzes the dynamics of municipal economic growth in Brazil based on the conditional convergence model in clubs. Framed on the theory of conditional convergence, changes in convergence speeds´ are analyzed under the hypothesis of conditional convergence in clubs. There are two municipal groups of analysis based on regional inequalities: the

Out‐of‐Plane Strain‐Decoupled Architecture for High‐Fill‐Factor Stretchable OLED Displays

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A vertically decoupled multilayer SOLED architecture separates emissive pixel islands from deformable interconnects, allowing low‐modulus elastomeric layers to accommodate applied strain and suppress strain transfer to the OLED region. This design, combined with transparent hybrid encapsulation, enables a high fill factor (∼75%), stretchability ...

The European Regional Convergence Process, 1980-1995: Do Spatial Regimes and Spatial Dependence Matter? [PDF]

open access: yes
We show in this paper that spatial dependence and spatial heterogeneity matter in the estimation of the b-convergence process among 138 European regions over the 1980-1995 period.

Mechanics of Telson Ridges in Mantis Shrimp for Impact Analysis and Implications for Bioinspired Elastic Shell Designs

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The mantis shrimp telson reveals how ridged biological shields control deformation under impact. Inspired by this architecture, telson‐inspired ridged curved shells transform ridge geometry and macroscopic curvature into bidirectional snap‐through, tunable stiffness, and enhanced hysteretic energy dissipation for multifunctional architected materials ...
