A Glimpse of Casual Queerness: The Radical Progress of Queer Visibility in Weimar Film and the Inevitable Backlash That Followed [PDF]

, 2019
In looking back at German history, the Weimar Era and the 1920s, in particular, are often regarded as a time of unrestricted frivolity and the catharsis of post-war anxiety.

PEDOT:PSS—A Key Material for Bioelectronics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
PEDOT:PSS ‐ Poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate ‐ is typically processed from water dispersions to form multifunctional and multidimensional constructs with tunable electronic and ionic conductivity. Throught processing engineering, PEDOT:PSS is intergrated in bioelectronic devices that operate efficiently in physiological conditions

Toward Reliable Metal Halide Perovskite FETs: From Electronic Structure and Device Physics to Stability and Performance Engineering

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Metal halide perovskite field‐effect transistors (PeFETs) offer great promise for flexible, low‐cost, and high‐performance due to their excellent charge carrier properties. However, challenges like ion migration, hysteresis, and instability limit their performance.

Wearable Metamaterials with Embodied Intelligence for Programmable Control of Human Limbs Tremor

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Resulting from alternating muscle contractions, tremors can severely limit human ability to perform everyday tasks like walking or talking, due to their disruptive nature. Medication and surgery may not always effectively address tremor control. A wearable device embodying programmable smart metamaterials with adaptable intelligence to meet the demand ...

Comparative Neuromechanical Wing‐Actuation Architectures of Flapping Flight in Insects, Hummingbirds, and Robots

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Natural fliers achieve remarkable aerial performance through diverse wing neuromechanical systems integrating actuation, sensing, and control. This study synthesizes neuromechanical architectures in insects and hummingbirds, identifying two key functional types‐Dual Neural‐Mechanical Oscillator and Neurally‐modulated Mechanical Oscillator‐ and ...

Who are these youths? Language in the service of policy [PDF]

, 2001
In the 1990s policy relating to children and young people who offend developed as a result of the interplay of political imperatives and populist demands. The ‘responsibilisation’ of young offenders and the ‘no excuses’ culture of youth justice have been

A Markov approach to credit rating migration conditional on economic states

Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract We develop a model for credit rating migration that accounts for the impact of economic state fluctuations on default probabilities. The joint process for the economic state and the rating is modelled as a time‐homogeneous Markov chain. While the rating process itself possesses the Markov property only under restrictive conditions, methods ...

World Court and United Nations Charter: The Principle of Effectiveness in Interpretation [PDF]

, 1962
Can plant seeds disperse with- out wind? This can be said to be the question that sparked this project. Plants and animals use all kinds of appendages to aid their locomotion, e.g. feathers, hairs or fins.
