Who Holds the Strings? Hybrid Governance in Small States

open access: yesPublic Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines how governance in Caribbean small island developing states (SIDS) is reshaped by enduring postcolonial legacies, recurrent crises, and deepening global interdependence. It highlights turbulence, understood as a structural, generative condition of fragmented and recombining authority, as its central analytical contribution ...

Towards more reliable interdisciplinary modelling of global human–environment dynamics driving biodiversity change

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Environmental problems are typically vast, urgent and complex. Confronted with such problems, we are often tempted to act fast by pulling together little bits and pieces from different fields and simply adding these to pre‐existing models and frameworks.

Structure and Dynamics of Ultra‐Low‐Crosslinked Microgels

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals the relationship between microgel internal architecture, zero‐shear viscosity, structural relaxation time, and the ability of ultra‐soft colloidal suspensions to remain viscous fluids under overcrowded conditions. This interplay between microgel compressibility and zero‐shear viscosity is further highlighted by a colloid‐polymer ...

Method for the Determination of Dynamic Domains in Proteins From Structural Pairs and Conformational Ensembles

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A straightforward method for the determination of dynamic domains from pairs of conformations or general conformational ensembles of proteins is presented. The method applies metric multi‐dimensional scaling (MDS) to distance‐differences or root‐mean square‐fluctuations of inter‐atomic distances (RMSFIDs).

Stair‐Climbing Wheelchairs for Enhanced Mobility: A Comprehensive Review of Fundamental Mechanisms, Design Concepts, and Performance Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT People with physical disabilities face significant mobility challenges while climbing uneven surfaces and staircases. In these circumstances, traditional wheelchairs do not provide stable, safely controlled mobility, underscoring the importance of building superior stair‐climbing wheelchairs for both medical and infrastructure purposes.
