This study introduces polyethylene glycol‐functionalized carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to enhance dispersion, interfacial bonding, and 4D printability in polyvinyl chloride‐PCL nanocomposites. The optimized 4D composite (0.5 wt% CNT) achieves a 25% increase in tensile strength, 95.78% shape fixity, and 5‐s recovery time.

Servitization for a Circular Economy in Construction
ABSTRACT Circular economy is pronounced in UN's Global Goals agenda 2030 as an alternative model for traditional linear production and consumption. Servitization refers to an increased resource efficiency and mitigation of climate effects by adding a service dimension through service‐based offerings (e.g., leasing and rentals), which are key to ...

Human factors and ergonomics in the emergency department
Although health care rapidly adopts technologic advances from other fields, it has been slow to incorporate well-established principles from human factors engineering into the health care workplace. This article demonstrates some of those principles by analyzing an all too routine clinical event from a human factors point of view.
