Abstract Research Summary Modular systems play a central role in technological innovation. Such systems emerge when interdependencies among modules in a complex system are isolated through interfaces. While early seminal work highlighted the importance of interface design, subsequent research on modularity has largely overlooked it.

Strategic search: Adaptation of internal fit and market positioning under competition
Abstract Research Summary Firms seeking competitive advantage need both internal fit and a distinctive market position, yet strategy research says little about how the search for the two is related. We develop a model of strategic search that integrates an NK landscape with differentiated Cournot competition, allowing a firm's position to shape both ...

Income Mobility, Automation, and Occupational Licensing
ABSTRACT Technological change has long been tied with distributional concerns due to displacement against certain skills on labor markets. Short‐run dislocations could create scarring in the long run. For example, shifts against less skilled workers with children could limit their ability to improve the inter‐generational income mobility of their ...

Fire Testing and Hazard Assessment for Flame Retardant Polymer Composites
Flame retardant polymer composites are now being evaluated with more than pass or fail flammability tests. Heat release, smoke, toxicity, and system‐level behavior are receiving more attention, and multi‐scale methods are being used to describe fire hazard under more realistic conditions.

Concrete in architecture: Redefining form, space, function, and insights from bibliometric analysis
Abstract Concrete has become a cornerstone in architectural and engineering innovation, as it seamlessly integrates structural performance with artistic expression. Its evolution from ancient opus caementicium to contemporary ultra‐high‐performance concrete illustrates its adaptability to the change in technological, environmental, and design paradigms.

“Who Is Watching me?”: Recovering the Grammar of Stigma in Interaction
This article offers a praxeological respecification of stigma. I argue that the term “stigma” is a category term and glossing device, used to gather together and stand in for a diverse range of interactional experiences, including, but not limited to, degradation, discrediting, discrimination, marginalization, and being demeaned.
