The Directional Profit Efficiency Measure: On Why Profit Inefficiency is either Technical or Allocative [PDF]
The directional distance function has been introduced in the efficiency literature with the intention of relaxing the fixed orientations represented by its classical input and output counterparts.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A novel multiscale MD/DFT framework to elucidate microenzyme adsorption and electron transfer is reported. This method reveals distinct configurations for microperoxidase‐11 on graphene and those best suited for electron transfer. Rate constants align with the limited experimental data, establishing this framework as a tool for optimizing microenzyme ...

Efficient Adsorption‐Based Direct Air Capture Via Triply Periodic Minimal Surface Architectures
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Architected triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) contactors reshape direct air capture by replacing straight‐channel diffusion limits with convection‐enhanced CO2 transport. Chaotic advection thins boundary layers and exposes fast adsorption sites, enabling 70%–75% more fast sites, 114% higher productivity, and 51.8% lower energy consumption than ...

Productivity Growth and Efficiency under Leontief Technology: An Application to US Steam-Electric Power Generation Utilities [PDF]
A theoretical framework is developed for decomposing partial factor productivity and measuring technical inefficiency when the underlying technology is characterized by factor non-substitution. With Farrell's (1957) radial index of technical inefficiency

Physics‐Guided Descriptors Enable Data‐Efficient Prediction of Battery Coulombic Efficiency
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This work integrates multiscale simulations with data‐driven approaches to predict Coulombic efficiency (CE). Multiscale simulations of battery systems are performed to extract Physics‐Guided descriptors and construct a dataset. Machine learning models trained on this dataset are then subjected to interpretable analysis to identify the most influential

Equilibrium and inefficiency in fixed rate tenders [PDF]
The fixed rate tender is one of the main procedural formats relied upon by central banks in their implementation of monetary policy. This fact stands in a somewhat puzzling contrast to the prevalent view in the theoretical literature that the procedure ...

Estimating Supply Response in the Presence of Technical Inefficiency Using the Profit Function: An Application to Ethiopian Agriculture [PDF]
Studies of supply response using the profit function have typically maintained the neo- classical assumption of efficiency. Using farm-level data from Northern Ethiopia, this study examines the impact of technical inefficiency on the response of small ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Polydopamine nanoparticles enable a precise, non‐genetic, and transcranial neuromodulation strategy via near‐infrared photothermal stimulation. By activating TRPV1 channels, this approach specifically enhances hippocampal gamma oscillations, thereby rescuing spatial memory deficits in models of perioperative neurocognitive disorder.
