The Monetary Policy–Commodities Nexus: A Survey
ABSTRACT This survey synthesizes evidence on the bidirectional links between commodity markets and monetary policy. On the commodities‐to‐policy side, we review how shocks to energy, food, and metals pass through to inflation, inflation expectations, economic activity, and financial stability in state‐dependent ways that vary by shock type, exposure ...

Non-Keplerian orbits using hybrid solar sail propulsion for Earth applications
Half a century of space technology development has provided a wealth of new space applications. However, many still remain to be explored. Examples include increased geostationary coverage and new opportunities to enhance polar observation.

ABSTRACT This article examines the Turkish state's Village Guard system, revived in the 1980s as part of its counterinsurgency strategy against the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK). While often framed as a defensive militia, the Village Guards became central to the state's exceptional governance in Kurdistan, both facilitating military control and ...

Inspired by nature's competitive maneuvers, this study introduces a combustion‐driven soft actuator that powers a multi‐modal “Jump‐and‐Fly Catbot” (JFC). With millisecond response, high‐force output (over 70 times its weight) and precise control (error within 5%), the robot can jump, fly, hover, and escape from challenging environments, achieving ...

A novel approach to hybrid propulsion transfers
This paper introduces a hybrid propulsion transfer termed a Hohmann Spiral, incorporating low and high-thrust technologies, analogous to the high-thrust bi-elliptic transfer.
