Gate‐Induced Critical Current Modulation in W–C Nanowires: The Role of Fabrication

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Focused ion beam induced deposition (FIBID) enables precise control of superconducting W–C nanowire devices. Introducing a Ga+ focused ion beam (FIB) cleaning step reduces substrate damage and suppresses leakage currents, shifting gating thresholds to higher voltages.

Price discrimination on syndicated loans and the number of lenders : empirical evidence from the sovereign debt syndication [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Syndicated loans and the number of lending relationships have raised growing attention. All other terms being equal (e.g. seniority), syndicated loans provide larger payments (in basis points) to lenders funding larger amounts.

3D‐Printing Aided Rapid Prototyping of Pretensioned Tensegrity Structures for Robotic Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Printing, injection molding, and assembly (PMA) is a method for rapid prototyping mesoscale, topologically complex, and tensioned tensegrity structures. In combination with PMA method, two mold design strategies: modular mold and compact channel layout, enable efficiency and scalability for tensegrity fabrication.

World corporate loan markets for raising new capital - does distance still matter: Are financial assets priced locally or globally? [PDF]

open access: yesEkonomski Anali, 2006
Though the paper focuses on pricing, as the background I provide some evidence about loan flows across markets in the form of borrowers’ and lenders’ propensity to issue outside their natural home market.

Learning‐Based Soft Robotic Grasping: Recent Progress and Remaining Challenges

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This review analyzes learning‐based soft robotic grasping from a pipeline‐oriented perspective, encompassing soft gripper design, multimodal sensing, and learning‐based planning and control. It surveys key neural network architectures and benchmark datasets and identifies critical challenges such as sim‐to‐real transfer, generalization, and continual ...

Cooperative banks’ social responsibility: the lending activities of a group of cooperative banks in Poland

open access: yesForum Scientiae Oeconomia, 2018
Cooperative banks are traditionally regarded as social economy entities. Their social responsibility includes financing the needs of local communities by means of various types of lending activities.

The Mind From Within: Visceral Roots of Human Cognition

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The physiological activity of visceral organs, such as the heart, the lungs, and the gut, is surprisingly linked to many sophisticated mental operations, such as remembering the past, being aware of ourselves, making choices, and forging social bonds.

unitive Methods for Unfulfilled Taxes in Moldavia (the second half of the 17th and the first half of the 18th century)

open access: yesTyragetia, 2018
The subject of our research is the application of imprisonment as a constraint method applied to debtors in the second half of the 17th century and the first half of the 18th century, using documentary (published and unpublished) and narrative sources ...

Broadening Hard‐Magnet Discovery Beyond Symmetry Constraints via Unified Effective Anisotropy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A unified effective‐anisotropy descriptor (Keff) extends hard‐magnet screening across all seven crystal systems, beyond the uniaxial restriction of conventional searches. Machine‐learning screening of 9320 known ferromagnets and diffusion‐model generation together yield 38 rare‐earth‐free or ‐lean candidates with DFT‐validated magnetic hardness (κ > 1),

Loans or Grants? [PDF]

open access: yes
We argue in this paper that cancelling the debt of the poorest countries was a good thing, but that it should not imply that the debt instrument should be foregone.
