Ultra‐Improved Interfacial Strength Between Metallic Surface and Polyurethane via Cost‐Effective Anodizing Process

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
SAA significantly enhanced Al/PU bonding, increasing SLSS by up to 920% and fracture energy by 15 100% through optimized micro‐nano porous surfaces. RSM identified the optimal anodizing conditions, while ML confirmed sulfuric acid concentration and roughness as dominant predictors of strength.

Optimization of land use structure integrating ecosystem service function and economic development—A case study in Dongting Lake Ecological and Economic Zone, China

Environmental and Sustainability Indicators
Currently, land use simulation and optimization show a trend towards spatialization and intelligence. However, regional land use simulation and optimization often neglects the inherent uncertainty of the land use system and the actual impacts of land use

A theory of low inflation in a non Ricardian economy with credit constraints [PDF]

This paper explores the relationship between the severity of credit constraints and long run inflation in a simple non Ricardian setting. It is shown that a low positive inflation can loosen credit constraints and that this effect yields a theory of the ...

R < 1 as an economic constraint

Review of Economic Design
Abstract This paper proposes a novel pandemic response paradigm, and shows that it would have been the right middle ground between lockdown and ignore-the-virus for Covid-19: maximize social welfare subject to $$R\,{\le }\,1$$ R

The impact of financial constraints on innovation: What can be learned from a direct measure? [PDF]

This paper examines the impact of financial constraints on innovation for established firms. We make use of a direct measure of the existence of financial constraints obtained thanks to a specific survey addressed to French established firms (FIT, Sessi).
