The effect of compliance assistance on pollution discharges and violations of environmental regulations

Journal of Policy Analysis and Management, Volume 45, Issue 3, Summer 2026.
Abstract Researchers and policymakers assert competing behavioral models of polluters. One model portrays polluters as best approximated by the perfectly informed, rational actor from economics textbooks. Another model portrays polluters, particularly small and medium facilities, as imperfectly informed, cognitively bounded, pro‐social actors.

Bioinspired Hierarchical Architecture with Water Transport Channels for Strong Adhesion at the Sweating Interface

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 28, 18 May 2026.
To address adhesion failure in sweaty epidermal electronics, this study proposes a cross‐species, multi‐scale biomimetic interface. By modeling staged wet adhesion, it integrates self‐regulating liquid bridges with directional drainage. This design ensures stable, high‐performance flexible sensing in complex physiological environments, offering a ...

Quasi-Stationary Strength of ECAP-Processed Cu-Zr at 0.5 T_m

Metals, 2019
The influence of the grain structure on the tensile deformation strength is studied for precipitation-strengthened Cu-0.2%Zr at 673K. Subgrains and grains are formed by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) and annealing.

Influence of Back Pressure on the Microstructure and Texture Characteristics of AA5083 During Equal Channel Angular Pressing Under Thermal Effect

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
The study focused on the microstructural evolution and the effects of temperature on the ECAP process. The alloy's response to grain refinement and its relationship with ECAP at elevated temperatures were thoroughly examined. ABSTRACT In the current investigation was to examine how the microstructure of AA5083 changed under various processing settings ...

Joining UFG Copper by Means of the W2Mi Machine [PDF]

Archives of Metallurgy and Materials
Joining metals with ultra-fine grains (UFG) is very difficult. UFG metals have a grain size of less than 1 µm. Exceeding the recrystallization temperature causes the growth of ultra-fine grains and degradation of the material’s mechanical properties. The

No longer true (ECAP)

, 2014
A common picture of the metaphysics of time has it that the past cannot change. For example, if it is now the case that Obama was born in 1961, it will never be the case that he was not born in 1961. A semantic consequence of this view is the following: (TP) Context-insensitive, temporally specific sentences about the past are truth-value-persistent ...
