Actuating and Sensing Composites of Liquid Crystal Elastomers and Poly(ionic liquid)s
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Ionic conductive, mechanically tough, flexible, and stretchable filaments of a composite material comprising a liquid crystal elastomer and a poly(ionic liquid) are produced through 3D printing, which exhibit large actuation strain under stimulation and electrical resistance variation in response to deformation or environmental condition changes. Their

Key aspects of investment analysis
Apstract: Applied Studies in Agribusiness and Commerce, 2007 This paper reviewed principally accepted methods applied to investment analysis. To describe every aspect of investment analysis fully would require far more space than available here, so we highlight only of few of its aspects.

Should we teach old dogs new tricks? the impact of community college retraining on older displaced workers [PDF]
This paper estimates the returns to retraining for older displaced workers--those 35 or older--by estimating the impact that community college schooling has on their subsequent earnings.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Atomically engineered layered 2D Ti3CNTz carbonitride MXene exhibits ultrahigh heat and pressure sensitivity, enabling dual‐mode sensors with 300%–400% performance enhancement and durability for real‐time health‐monitoring interface devices. Precise nitrogen incorporation (e.g., Ti3C1.8N0.2Tz) boosts conductivity, enhancing temperature response, while ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A 3D anisotropic hydrogel derived from heart extracellular matrix guides cytoskeletal alignment and nuclear remodeling in reprogrammed cardiomyocyte‐like cells. This study reveals how matrix alignment modulates nuclear envelope dynamics and chromatin state, triggering transcriptional and functional maturation.

The Life-Cycle Personal Accounts Proposal for Social Security: A Review [PDF]
The life-cycle accounts proposal for Social Security reform has been justified by its proponents using a number of different arguments, but these arguments generally involve the assumption of a high likelihood of good returns on the accounts.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A soft, dual‐channel hydrogel patch enables simultaneous detection of wound temperature and strain by integrating ion‐diffusion‐mediated thermoelectric and resistive sensing. The conformal design maintains stable performance during motion, capturing subtle inflammatory and mechanical changes for continuous wound monitoring.

Efeitos econômicos de diferentes programas de desbaste em povoamentos de pinus elliottii
Ciência Florestal, 2000 The effect of different thinning programs (light thinning, medium and heavy thinning) on the internal rate of return was studied in stands of Pinus elliottii. The sampled stands were planted in 1976 with an inicial spacing of 2 x 2 m.
