Managing Mobility for Human Development: The Growing Salience of Mixed Migration [PDF]

open access: yes
In the analysis of migration a basic distinction is often made between those who chose to move and those who are forced to – that is, between ‘voluntary’ and ‘forced’ migrants.

Regulated Ion‐Diffusion Hydrogels for Subtle and Multimodal Temperature‐Strain Sensing in Wound Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A soft, dual‐channel hydrogel patch enables simultaneous detection of wound temperature and strain by integrating ion‐diffusion‐mediated thermoelectric and resistive sensing. The conformal design maintains stable performance during motion, capturing subtle inflammatory and mechanical changes for continuous wound monitoring.

Swelling‐Programmed Topographical Guidance for Dynamic Spheroid Self‐Assembly via a Mechanochemical Hydrogel Niche

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A swelling‐programmed micropatterned hydrogel guides adherent cells through a controlled transition from cell–matrix anchoring to cadherin‐mediated cell–cell compaction, enabling rapid assembly of high‐viability spheroids with defined size and morphology.

Defining ‘forced migration’ in Burma [PDF]

open access: yesForced Migration Review, 2008
Most Burmese people fleeing their homes do so for a combination of reasons. The root causes for leaving, however,determine which ‘category’ they belong to: ‘internally displaced persons’ (IDPs) or ‘economic migrants’.

A new challenge for urban planning in Turkey: socio-spatial impacts of forced migration

open access: yesEuropean Spatial Research and Policy, 2019
In recent decades, forced migration has become a globally salient issue for both developed and developing countries. As a developing country, Turkey is a significant destination for forced migration, with more than 3.6 million Syrian immigrants.

Catástrofes creadas y su invisibilización en los contextos urbanos: la migración forzada al interior de las ciudades en Colombia

open access: yesBulletin de l'Institut Français d'Études Andines, 2014
The change in the logic of Colombian armed conflict —scenes, objectives, actors and warlike strategies— has made forced migration evolve in such a way that it is not possible now to talk only about forced migration from rural environments to urban ones ...

Forced migration in Indonesia: Historical perspectives

open access: yes, 2006
Copyright © 2006 Scalabrini Migration CenterThis paper argues that an historical perspective is important in the understanding of contemporary forced migration in Indonesia. It demonstrates this through an analysis of the major pre 1965 forced migrations

Bio‐Inspired Synthesis of Macroporous Single Crystal Particles as Scattering Agents

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A general strategy is presented that delivers unique, single‐crystal microparticles that combine submicron macroporosity and uniform particle shapes. A bioinspired approach is used to occlude three distinct types of additives – polystyrene microspheres, polymer vesicles and amino acids – within calcite single crystals, and subsequent thermal annealing ...
