Fit-For-Purpose Land Administration and the Framework for Effective Land Administration in Chad

, 2023
The Republic of Chad's land administration system faces many challenges related to the implementation and management of its conventional surveying, mapping, and recording approaches. This situation results in land conflicts, non-productivity of agricultural land, uncontrolled urban development and hinders Chad's development more generally.

Integrating Ecology and Economics in Agent‐Based Models to Support Agricultural Policy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Agent‐based models are valuable tools for studying social‐ecological systems in agriculture. This review maps how existing agent‐based models represent the human and natural domains of agriculture, and discusses developments in economic and ecological agent‐based modeling.

A Versatile‐Designable Framework for Active and Programmable Shape‐Morphing Soft Matter Systems: From Inverse Design to Closed‐Loop Control

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A versatile framework integrates addressable electrothermal actuation and strain‐constraint mechanisms to construct programmable shape‐morphing soft matter systems. By combining an analytical inverse design strategy for high‐fidelity 3D surface reconstruction with deep learning‐based closed‐loop control, this approach enables zero‐energy shape locking,

Development and Applications of a Magnetism‐Aware General‐Purpose Atomic Cluster Expansion Potential for the Fe‐O‐H Ternary System

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hydrogen‐driven iron oxide reduction, water‐iron corrosion, and hydrogen embrittlement of metallic iron share the same Fe‐O‐H chemistry. A general‐purpose Atomic Cluster Expansion potential covers this chemistry across the full concentration range with explicit Ising‐like treatment of magnetism.
