Red Fluorescent Protein‐Metal Organic Framework Hybrids for Lighting Applications
Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.We demonstrate the encapsulation in a metal‐organic framework (MOF) of two red fluorescent proteins, DsRed and mCherry. The materials conserve all spectroscopical and structural properties of the underlying components, which allows for their implementation as color down‐converting materials in bio‐hybrid light‐emitting diodes, which exhibit average 3 ...

Athenea Digital. Revista de pensamiento e investigación social, 2006 This article explores some basic features of the methodology used by Paul E. Willis in his great work "Learning to Labour" from 1976. Through a backward approximation from the presentational form the article tries to comprehend the consistency of Willis' analytical and conceptual apparatus applied in his research process.

WP 59 - Globalization and working time: Work-place hours and flexibility in Germany [PDF]
This paper examines how economic globalization affects work-place arrangements regulating working time in industrialized countries. Exposure to foreign direct investment and trade can have off-setting effects for work-place bargaining over standard hours

Child labor : cause, consequence, and cure, with remarks on International Labor Standards [PDF]
At least 120 million of the world's children aged 5 to 14 worked full-time in 1995, most of them under hazardous, unhygienic conditions, for more than 10 hours a day. This is an old problem worldwide but particularly so in Third World countries in recent

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This work presents a state‐adaptive Koopman linear quadratic regulator framework for real‐time manipulation of a deformable swab tool in robotic environmental sampling. By combining Koopman linearization, tactile sensing, and centroid‐based force regulation, the system maintains stable contact forces and high coverage across flat and inclined surfaces.

The Timing of Labor Demand [PDF]
We examine the timing of firms' operations in a formal model of labor demand. Merging a variety of data sets from Portugal from 1995-2004, we describe temporal patterns of firms' demand for labor and estimate production-functions and relative labor ...
