Molecularly Dissipative Liquid Crystal Elastomer Foams for Impact and Vibration Attenuation
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Liquid crystal elastomer foams integrate cellular deformation with mesogen reorientation to create a dual‐scale energy dissipation mechanism. Progressive pore collapse absorbs mechanical loads, while stress‐induced mesogen reorientation provides additional damping, resulting in reduced impact transmission and broadband suppression of vibrational ...

The impact of varieties of democracy on subjective well-being: Global evidence
Acta PsychologicaThis paper investigates the effect of democracy on subjective well-being (SWB) using panel data from 144 countries from 2005 to 2020. SWB measures the evaluation of life satisfaction, positive and negative emotions. In addition, democracy is conceived as

Changing Perspectives on the Problems of Democracy, 1970 to 2020: An Organizational Approach [PDF]
In this short essay, originally presented at the Center on Organizational Innovation’s COI@25 25th Anniversary Conference, I discuss a number of predominant perspectives on the singular problems posed by liberal democratic polity over the last 50 years ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Trinuclear iron oxo‐bridged catalytic ensembles stabilized by aspartic‐acid‐derived carbon dots provide an effective platform for alkaline oxygen evolution. Mixed‐valence charge balancing, inner‐sphere charge transport, and work‐function alignment within the N/O‐rich carbon framework promote cooperative Fe‐site chemistry and efficient OER ...

, 2002 Throughout recent history, the political ideologies of I iberal ism and democracy have been closely associated with each other. Despite this common association, there is a continuing tension between the two sy stems. The cause of this tension can be best summarized as the distinction between negative and positive liberty, made famous by Isaiah Berlin ...

Democracy, Liberalism and the Middle East : On the Universality of Liberal Democracy
, 2008 Democracy promotion has become a ‘big business’ for foreign policy makers and is generally assumed to foster global peace, political liberty and prosperity. Democratization is closely linked to the process of state-building and liberal peace- building, and is often regarded as a universal ideal which guarantees peace and freedom.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.An amphiphilic GOx nanoamphizyme was constructed by covalently introducing hydrophobic PPNI linkers onto GOx, enabling spontaneous self‐assembly into tunable nanoparticles. Mild crosslinking further stabilized the assemblies and enhanced catalytic performance and stability.

Multidimensional‐Encoded High‐Fidelity Spectrometers With a Floating‐Base Bipolar Junction
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A floating‐base bipolar junction photodetector enables multidimensional spectral encoding through synergistic gate‐ and drain‐bias modulation of interfacial barrier matching. The resulting complementary spectral responses form a diverse, weakly correlated response matrix, enabling robust and high‐fidelity spectral reconstruction even at sub‐nanoampere ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Neuromorphic devices for extreme environments are interpreted through the physical states that store and process information. Radiation, temperature extremes, and vacuum can perturb vacancies, filaments, trapped charges, polarization, interfaces, and readout signals.

Democracias, ciudadanías y formación ciudadana.Una aproximación.
Revista de Estudios Sociales, 2007 This article examines some ofthe ideas developed in Western culture around the political and social organization of democracy. It argues that the way we understand democracy today (the liberal model) by no means exhausts its different meanings or ...
