Insurance of local government budgetary units
An insurance contract should ensure receiving a compensation that maximally offsets an incurred loss. This is a role of an insurance program implemented as part of a modern insurance policy, including by local government units and their budgetary entities.

Guided by the golden ratio, a class of aperiodic architected metamaterials is introduced to address the intrinsic trade‐off between strength and toughness. By unifying local geometric heterogeneity with global order, the golden‐ratio‐guided aperiodic architecture promotes spatial delocalization of damage tolerence regions, leading to more tortuous ...

Molecular engineering of a nonconjugated radical polymer enables a significant enhancement of the glass transition temperature. The amorphous nature and tunability of the polymer, arising from its nonconjugated backbone, facilitates the fabrication of organic memristive devices with an exceptionally high yield (>95%), as well as substantial ...

Local Government in the United States
米国の地方政治に関する講義においてボーゲル教授は以下の4点を論じた。1)地方政府制度の特徴(細分化、連邦制度、分権の進んだ地方政府制度)2)アメリカの地方自治(地方自治の限界―ディロンのルール、住民投票、自治憲章、財源なき委任、民間企業に経済的に依存する市、連邦補助金の削減、高歳入創出、地方主義、弱い政党システム、官民のパートナーシップ、個人主義、プラグマティズム)3)政府間関係の最近の変化 4)アメリカの地方分権から日本が学べること(分権化の受け皿となる発達した地方行政制度が必要、分権化は政策に大きな影響を及ぼす、新たな責任を果たす力が地方政府にあるかどうかは経済状況に深く関わっている) identifier:https://repository.tku.ac.jp/dspace/handle ...

Financing local and regional self-government units
Teritorijalna organizacija suvremenih država počiva na načelima decentralizacije, što obuhvaća političku, upravnu i financijsku neovisnost nižih razina vlasti. Temeljno je načelo da ni jedna funkcija, ni jedan posao ni zadatak ne može se dodijeliti određenoj razini vlasti ili tijelu državne vlasti a da se za to ne osiguraju novčana sredstva.

A multivalent antiviral platform based on honeycomb‐shaped DNA nanostructures (HC–Urumin) is developed to enhance the potency and breadth of the host defense peptide Urumin. Through spatially patterned trimeric presentation, HC–Urumin disrupts influenza A virus entry, improves cell viability, and reduces disease severity in vivo‐offering a modular and ...

Mg‐based thermoelectrics are among the most promising candidates for power generation applications but their performance is compromised by Mg loss at device operation temperatures due to the higher chemical potential of Mg (μMg${\mu}_{\mathrm{Mg}}$) inside the material compared to the environment.

Unusual Swelling Behavior of Hydrogels Modified with Spiropyran as Appendage or Crosslinker
Not so innocent after all—spiropyran crosslinkers in methylenebisacrylamide‐crosslinked poly(acrylamide‐co‐acrylic acid) hydrogels increase crosslinking density, but also, counterintuitively, increase swelling. Charge complexation, cooperative chemo‐mechanical effects, and aggregation may explain these observations.

Electroactive Liquid Crystal Elastomers as Soft Actuators
Electroactive liquid crystal elastomers (eLCEs) can be actuated via electromechanical, electrochemical, or electrothermal effects. a) Electromechanical effects include Maxwell stress, electrostriction, and the electroclinic effect. b) Electrochemical effects arise from electrode redox reactions.
