Low‐Power Control Of Resistance Switching Transitions in First‐Order Memristors

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Joule losses are a serious concern in modern integrated circuit design. In this regard, minimizing the energy necessary for programming memristors should be handled with care. This manuscript presents an optimal control framework, allowing to derive energy‐efficient programming voltage protocols for resistance switching devices. Following this approach,

Physics Informed Generative Surrogate Learning for Full Wave Validated Real Time Beamforming in Programmable Metasurfaces

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
A physics‐guided generative surrogate framework is developed for programmable metasurface beamforming. Mode‐conditioned binary state generation, aperture‐physics prediction, routed residual correction, NSGA‐II optimization, and CST validation are combined to support fast candidate screening and full‐wave beam refinement across single‐beam, dual‐beam ...

How Video‐Based Information Affects Farmers' Willingness to Pay for Drone Services

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Professional service for digital technology like agricultural drones lowers transaction costs and scope thresholds for smallholders. Meanwhile, perceptual adoption barriers remain underexplored. We conduct a two‐stage choice experiment with a randomized video‐based information treatment among 384 Chinese crop farmers to measure its effect on ...

Social Protection, Livelihoods and ‘Structural Gaps’: Impact Assessment as Stories of Social Change

LSE Public Policy Review
Impact assessments form a significant strand of research in development studies because they assess the extent to which policy efforts to bring about desired forms of change in a society succeed in their objectives.

Delaying the Inevitable? U.S. Screwworm Closures and Feeder Cattle Market Dynamics

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biosecurity trade restrictions are commonly framed as preventive measures, yet in many settings they function primarily as policies of delay: they impose immediate market costs while only postponing the arrival of biological risks. This paper evaluates that intertemporal tradeoff using the 2024–2025 US suspension of live cattle imports from ...

Constructing and Validating New County‐Level Cultural Capital Indices for Applied Policy Analysis: Evidence From SNAP Take‐Up

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cultural capital influences a wide range of social and economic outcomes, yet quantitative measures suitable for policy analysis remain limited. We develop county‐level cultural capital indices for the US based on Bourdieu's framework of objectified, embodied, and institutionalized cultural capital.
