HeaTrace: A Parametric Design‐to‐Fabrication Workflow for Thermally Programmable Soft Robots

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A programmable thermal actuation workflow enables soft robots to be designed and fabricated with embedded heaters that drive multiple responses. By combining performance‐driven heater design with multimaterial fabrication, the system supports thermally triggered shape change, stiffness tuning, and thermochromic visual response, as demonstrated through ...

Interbody Wire for Reconfigurable Robots: Bridging Integrated Morphological Reconfiguration and Distributed Wire‐Mediated Cooperation

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
TwinX shows how a single interbody wire connecting two robots can support both integrated morphological reconfiguration and distributed wire‐mediated cooperation. When the robots dock, they reconfigure into different forms for locomotion and manipulation.

Crystallography‐Dependent Plating/Stripping Kinetics and Interfacial Morphologies in Zn Metal Anodes

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
SECCM coupled with fast‐scan cyclic voltammetry enables facet‐resolved measurements of Zn plating/stripping kinetics on single‐crystal (002), (100), and (101) surfaces. The close‐packed (002) facet exhibits the lowest exchange current density, whereas the more open (100) facet is kinetically fastest.

Crop insurance and irrigation behavior: The conditional role of pumping costs

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Excessive water use for irrigation can accelerate the depletion of water resources, undermining agriculture's resilience to weather‐related shocks. Understanding how farmers make water use decisions is essential for developing effective water management policies.

Risk management externalities in agrifood supply chains

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Firms may under‐ or over‐invest in risk management from the social planner's perspective, resulting in a negative externality on other economic agents in the supply chain. The externality of risk management is particularly relevant for agrifood supply chains, which frequently experience disruptions and play a primary role in preventing major ...

The effect of extreme wildfire exposure on energy poverty: Evidence from Australia's Black Saturday bushfires

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study assesses the effects of the 2009 Black Saturday Bushfires (BSB), which primarily occurred in rural regions of Victoria and represent the deadliest bushfire event in Australia's history, on household energy poverty. Using a linear panel event‐study, an entropy‐balanced event‐study, and a staggered difference‐in‐differences (DiD ...
