Programmable Multifunctional Bistable Structures for Energy Transfer and Dissipation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 17, 23 March 2026.
Utilizing the energy conversion characteristics of asymmetric bistable beams, this study develops a programmable multifunctional system composed of multiple bistable beams for energy transfer and dissipation. The high energy density enables the system to demonstrate potential in transient scenarios such as target delivery and shock absorption ...

A Scoping Review of Nudges for Enhancing Agricultural Policy

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 137-159, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Following PRISMA guidelines, we conduct a scoping review on 18 empirical studies on nudging interventions for farmers in Europe and the USA. The evidence on the effectiveness of nudges is mixed. Some studies demonstrate positive outcomes, particularly when nudges are combined with other interventions; others report no effect or negative ...

Dollars for Drops: Abatement Cost of Water for Irrigation in the Colorado River Basin

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 278-293, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The Colorado River is a lifeline for more than 40 million people in the western United States. However, with climate change diminishing snowpacks in the Rocky Mountains and increasing demands from agriculture and urban areas, the river's flow has become insufficient to meet all the competing needs.
