Fatigue‐Driven Adaptive Assistance for a Semi‐Active Upper‐Limb Occupational Exoskeleton
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Physical fatigue during a physical activity is estimated in real time to enable adaptive exoskeleton assistance. By continuously adjusting the level of support according to the user’s fatigue, this approach reduces physical demand and provides a pathway toward personalized exoskeleton assistance.

Mirror versus Inversion Symmetry Breaking in Mesogenic Dimers: NTB versus NF Phase
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Two non‐conventional nematic phases, twist‐bend NTB and ferroelectric NF, are observed within the same homologous series of dimers built of two strongly dipolar mesogenic units linked by a flexible spacer. The type of the phase formed depends on the molecular geometry, defined by parity of internal linkage.

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract While multiple factors explain low adoption rates of improved varieties by small‐scale farmers in sub‐Saharan Africa, a key supply‐side constraint is the limited availability of seed embodying new traits in the volume, quality, price, and timeliness required by farmers. This constraint is partly attributable to classical failures in the market

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract Large‐scale land reforms constitute a substantial redistribution of wealth and reallocation of agricultural land, which is a major form of asset and production input in developing countries. While land redistribution (from the rich to the poor) remains a highly controversial issue, extensive evidence on its effect is limited.
