Rethinking Public Administration Reform: Institutional Layering of Bureaucratic, Managerial and Community Logics Over Time in Nigeria's Tax Administration

Public Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The reform of public institutions has attracted sustained attention in both scholarship and policymaking. Increasingly, however, there is growing recognition that reforms are rarely implemented in an institutional vacuum. Instead, new reforms are layered onto existing arrangements, producing hybrid institutional landscapes shaped by prior ...

Process‐Structure‐Morphing Coupling in Thermally Activated ABS 4D Printing

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Graphical abstract illustrating thermally induced shape morphing in FDM‐printed ABS beams. ABSTRACT Predictable thermally induced morphing in fused deposition modeled thermoplastics remains difficult because the deformation response is highly sensitive to processing and activation conditions.

Predicting the Tensile Behavior of Basalt Fiber‐Reinforced Polylactic Acid (PLA) Biocomposites Using a Multiscale Modeling Approach

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Multi‐scale modeling approach for predicting the tensile behavior of basalt fiber reinforced PLA biocomposites. ABSTRACT This study develops a micromechanical‐based multiscale modeling approach to predict the tensile behavior of basalt fiber (BF)‐reinforced polylactic acid (PLA) biocomposites.

Application of Non‐Isothermal Network Theory With Curved‐Channel Element Characteristics to Predict Melt Conveying in High‐Performance Single‐Screw Extruders

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a fast and accurate calculation tool to predict conveying of polymer melts in single‐screw extruders. Integrating generalized sub‐models into network theory allows to represent the complex screw shapes and material behavior more realistically. Tests on an industrial extruder show close agreement with experiments, outperforming older

Refining the boundaries of the nodal CTV in the middle neck for nasopharyngeal carcinoma

Precision Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
This study proposes fascial‐based optimizations for middle neck clinical target volume (CTV) in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), excluding the para‐pharyngeal space (PPS) and adjusting boundaries to reduce radiation volume while ensuring at‐risk nodal coverage.
