Mirror-symmetry-induced pseudospin filtering of phonons in graphene nanoribbons

New Journal of Physics
Unlike electrons, phonons do not have the charge and spin degrees of freedom. Consequently, it is a big challenge for the control of phonon currents and the design of quantum phonon devices due to the lack of versatile degrees of freedom.

On the Role of Preprocessing and Memristor Dynamics in Reservoir Computing for Image Classification

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reservoir computing (RC) is an emerging recurrent neural network architecture that has attracted growing attention for its low training cost and modest hardware requirements. Memristor‐based circuits are particularly promising for RC, as their intrinsic dynamics can reduce network size and parameter overhead in tasks such as time‐series ...

Who Is Structurally Able to Participate in the Sustainable Protein Transition and Through What Mechanisms?

AgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, EarlyView.
Participation in transitions toward more sustainable protein consumption is driven primarily by sustainability motivation, whereas behavioural capability determines whether intentions translate into action. Despite high awareness among Chinese consumers, gaps persist, indicating that policies must jointly address motivational and practical barriers to ...

How Competitive Is Myanmar's Rice Sector? A Comparison of Production Costs and Efficiency

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the cost competitiveness of rice production in Myanmar by examining production costs, cost efficiency, and the potential effect of improving cost efficiency on the country's global competitiveness. To achieve this, we conduct a comparative analysis of production costs among major rice‐producing countries and estimate the ...

Heterogeneity in Food Price Inflation Convergence Across the EU: Evidence From Club Dynamics and Structural Breaks

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines food price inflation rate convergence among EU27 Member States from 2005 to 2024, focusing on structural breaks, external shocks, and regional disparities. Using panel unit root tests and club convergence analysis, the findings reveal no overall convergence but identify multiple convergence clubs.

Does a Specialized Niche Market Vegetable Processor Enjoy Bargaining Power?

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agribusiness companies may achieve competitive advantage through specialization within niche markets. One such niche is the fresh‐cut fruit and vegetable market, which has been steadily growing in Germany. This study examines whether the specialization of a German fresh‐cut producer grants it with market power within this niche market.

Animal‐Based Brands Taking the Plant‐Based Opportunity: A Tasting Experiment Exploring Consumer Acceptance of Plant‐Based Brand Extensions

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how consumer taste and brand equity perceptions shape the acceptance of plant‐based milk products. Using a blind/informed tasting experiment, we evaluated consumers' willingness to buy (WTB) and taste perception of a plant‐based milk alternative produced by a traditional dairy brand, compared with competing plant‐based ...

Solid–liquid equilibria in the LiOH–ethanol–water system: Solubility measurements and thermodynamic modeling

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The demand for LiOH is driven by the growth of the electric vehicle industry. Evaporative crystallization of LiOH·H2O is energy intensive, whereas ethanol‐based antisolvent crystallization has emerged as a more sustainable alternative. From a process design perspective, the crystallization yield depends on the ethanol dosage, and thermodynamic

SigmaFormer: Augmenting transformer encoders with COSMO sigma profiles for pure component property prediction

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Transformer‐based molecular models pretrained on SMILES strings demonstrate strong performance in property prediction. However, these model often lack explicit integration of molecular surface charge distributions that govern intermolecular interactions such as hydrogen bonding and polarity.
