Understanding the Role of Political Staff and Parliamentary Administrations

open access: yesPolitics and Governance
The staff working in parliaments represent a highly relevant, yet significantly understudied group of actors. While political scientists have sought to understand the activities of elected representatives in parliaments, the role of the administration ...

Forms of manifestation of contemporary political clientelism. An analytical approach from the perspective of the specialized literature

open access: yesSfera Politicii, 2021
Political parties and candidates are engaging various methods and efforts to mobilize voters during electoral campaigns. Some of them are buying votes, offer jobs while others are using threats, intimidation and violence.

Quantifying Consumer Tradeoffs Across Firm‐Level Strategic Positioning Dimensions: Evidence from US Craft Beer Consumers

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Strategic positioning becomes increasingly important as markets mature, particularly in consumer‐facing industries that offer similar products, experiential cues, and values‐based messages. This study offers a conceptual model to examine the strategic positioning factors that motivate consumers to visit one local business over another before ...

Resolving passive heat transfer and phase‐change heat in cryogenic CO2 deposition (Desublimation) from CO2/N2 mixtures

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract In cryogenic CO2 desublimation systems where phase change dominates both heat transfer and separation, conventional lumped thermal‐resistance treatments embed interfacial latent heat into an overall heat‐transfer coefficient, obscuring how phase‐change heat is partitioned between the gas phase and the coolant and limiting diagnostic insight ...

Sampling Strategy: An Overlooked Factor Affecting Artificial Intelligence Prediction Accuracy of Peptides’ Physicochemical Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
This study reveals that sampling strategy (i.e., sampling size and approach) is a foundational prerequisite for building accurate and generalizable AI models in peptide discovery. Reaching a threshold of 7.5% of the total tetrapeptide sequence space was essential to ensure reliable predictions.

Self‐Driving Laboratory Optimizes the Lower Critical Solution Temperature of Thermoresponsive Polymers

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
A low‐cost, self‐driving laboratory is developed to democratize autonomous materials discovery. Using this "frugal twin" hardware architecture with Bayesian optimization, the platform rapidly converges to target lower critical solution temperature (LCST) values while self‐correcting from off‐target experiments, demonstrating an accessible route to data‐

Political Parties in the Global Context [PDF]

open access: yesOvidius University Annals: Economic Sciences Series, 2018
In a more connected world than ever, with an expanding global market, old businesses that once used to dominate the markets found themselves facing big problems when new business models emerged, when the internet led to the birth of e-commerce and ...

A Two‐Stage Characterization Pipeline and Open‐Source Framework for Reproducible Tactile Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The same soft tactile sensor returns different numbers when embodied in different robots. This is an Embodiment Gap that no shared framework currently captures transparently. A two‐stage characterization pipeline, paired with a FAIR open‐source digital datasheet, decouples intrinsic sensor behavior from embodiment effects and condenses cross‐laboratory

Soft Active Electromyography Interface for Machine Learning‐Enabled Silent Speech Recognition

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A soft, hand‐worn electromyography interface enables intent‐driven silent speech recognition without continuous facial attachment. The device integrates liquid‐metal interconnects, a transparent flexible circuit, and elastomer encapsulation with a fingertip electrode that contacts perioral muscles only on demand.
