Digital Twins for the Design, Interactive Control, and Deployment of Modular, Fiber‐Reinforced Soft Continuum Arms

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A digital twin framework is presented for modular soft continuum arms built from fiber‐reinforced pneumatic actuators. Cosserat rod models describe individual actuators, while virtual assemblies are formed through serial and parallel networks, preserving actuator‐level architecture and arm deformation.

Food inflation pass‐through from agricultural imports in a small open economy

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper develops a new framework for quantifying cost pass‐through in a small open economy by estimating firm‐level markup responses to agricultural import price shocks. We show theoretically that markup adjustments depend on firms' reliance on imported inputs and demand curvature, generating heterogeneous inflationary effects across firm ...

Site‐Specific Molecular Engineering Redirects Radical Pathways for Selective Photocatalytic Coupling of Methane to C2+ Hydrocarbons

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Site‐specific self‐assembly of alkyl thiols on Au/TiO2 enables precise modulation of interfacial electron distribution and the local microenvironment through covalent Au‐thiolate interactions. This site‐specific molecular engineering synergistically promotes surface kinetics and charge separation, suppressing ·O2−‐driven overoxidation and thereby ...
