Programmable Microscale Actuation of Hydrogels With Tunable Response via Printing on Particles

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
We fabricate microscale hydrogels with precisely tunable phase transition temperatures (23–60 °C) by particle‐templated two‐photon polymerization using chemically tailored inks. Multi‐material printing enables stepwise thermal actuation through sequential volume changes at distinct VPTTs, while pH‐dependent hysteresis drives anisotropic actuation with ...

Managing Credit Risk with Credit and Macro Derivatives [PDF]

open access: yes
The industrial organization approach to the microeconomics of banking augmented by uncertainty and risk aversion is used to examine credit derivatives and macro derivatives as instruments to hedge credit risk for a large commercial bank.

Should derivatives be privileged in bankruptcy? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Derivatives enjoy special status in bankruptcy: they are exempt from the automatic stay and effectively senior to virtually all other claims. We propose a corporate finance model to assess the effect of these exemptions on a firm's cost of borrowing and ...

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.

WORLD FINANCIAL RELATIONS: UNDERSTANDING THE CREDIT DERIVATIVE SWAPS (CDS) DEPENDENCE STRUCTURE

open access: yesREAd
This study investigates the copula model that best fit to model the dependence structure of Credit Derivative Swaps (CDS) spreads. For the analysis, we consider daily data from the period of January 1, 2009 to December 31, 2014.

Problems and prospects of development of regulation methods of bank investment activity with derivative financial instruments

open access: yesПроблеми теорії та методології бухгалтерського обліку, контролю і аналізу, 2019
The financial crisis of 2007–2009, the effects of which the world is experiencing today, has had a very negative impact on the economies of many developed countries. There are several dozen causes that have led to a downturn in the economy and a start of

Credit derivatives: new financial instruments for controlling credit risk [PDF]

open access: yes
One of the risks of making a bank loan or investing in a debt security is credit risk, the risk of borrower default. In response to this risk, new financial instruments called credit derivatives have been developed in the past few years.

CVA and FVA to Derivatives Trades Collateralized by Cash

open access: yes, 2013
In this article, we combine replication pricing with expectation pricing for derivative trades that are partially collateralized by cash. The derivatives are replicated by underlying assets and cash, using repurchasing agreement (repo) and margining ...

Calibrating risk-neutral default correlation. [PDF]

open access: yes
The implementation of credit risk models has largely relied on the use of historical default dependence, as proxied by the correlation of equity returns. However, as is well known, credit derivative pricing requires risk-neutral dependence.
