Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Carbon nanomaterial‐reinforced epoxy composites exhibit pronounced piezoresistive behavior, enabling intrinsic damage sensing under cyclic and fatigue loading. This review critically compares carbon nanotube and graphene systems, correlating filler content, percolation threshold, and gauge factor with sensing stability and damage evolution.

Optimal Opt-in “Climate” Contracts [PDF]
Journal of Applied Economics, 1998 The paper studies the design of a tradeable permit system with voluntarily opt-in possibilities for LDCs in the context of climate change. In setting the optimal opt-in rule, the social planner faces a trade-off between production efficiency (minimization of control costs) and information rent extraction (reduction of excess permits).

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Phase‐changing liquids enable untethered pneumatic actuation in soft robotics but suffer from volatility and storage challenges. This work reports a simple method to encapsulate Novec 7000 within micron‐thin alginate shells via in situ injection and ionic crosslinking.

Optimal Reinsurance with Heterogeneous Reference Probabilities
Risks, 2016 This paper studies the problem of optimal reinsurance contract design. We let the insurer use dual utility, and the premium is an extended Wang’s premium principle.

"Strategic Default Jump as Impulse Control in Continuous Time" [PDF]
This paper presents a new approach for modeling an optimal debt contract in continuous time. It examines a competing contract design in a continuous-time environment with Markov income shocks and costly veri able information.

Inequity aversion and team incentives [PDF]
, 2002 We study how the optimal contract in team production is affected when employees are averse to inequity in the sense described by Fehr and Schmidt (1999).

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.The wettability of aluminum droplets (Al) on different copper substrates (Cu), where liquid Al spreads on solid Cu surfaces to form a liquid–solid interface, is studied numerically and experimentally. The experimental and numerical results show good agreement in the fast‐spreading regime.

Stock Options and Chief Executive Compensation [PDF]
Although stock options are commonly observed in chief executive officer (CEO) com- pensation contracts, there is theoretical controversy about whether stock options are part of the optimal contract.

Surface Tension Measurement of Ti‐6Al‐4V by Falling Droplet Method in Oxygen‐Free Atmosphere
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.In this article, the temperature‐dependent surface tension of free falling, oscillating Ti‐6Al‐4V droplets is investigated in both argon and monosilane doped, oxygen‐free atmosphere. Droplet temperature and oscillation are captured with one single high‐speed camera, and the surface tension is calculated with Rayleigh's formula.
