Femtosecond‐Laser‐Induced Physical Unclonable Random Maze Structure for Storage‐Free Encryption

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Femtosecond‐laser‐induced gold random maze structures serve as multimodal physical unclonable functions for storage‐free encryption. Their stochastic optical, electrical, and Raman responses are generated by plasmon‐assisted Marangoni formation and converted into AES‐compatible keys without permanent secret‐key storage, offering a portable route toward

Tracking the South African marketing index

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Business Management, 1997
This study analyses marketing and marketing activities from a consumer's point-of-view. It measures consumer attitudes towards the so-called 4 Ps (product, price, promotion and retailing) and converts these scores to an overall 'attitude towards ...

Life Cycle Management of Port Structures

open access: yesZairyo-to-Kankyo, 2003
Whole life costing (WLC) is probably the best tool available, provided that the input is sensible and the output tempered with engineering judgment. However, in general, there appeared to be a lack of information about the cost of maintenance and shutdown activities.

Field‐Frustrated Cooperative Distortions: Suppressing Jahn‐Teller Ordering via Microwave Annealing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Microwave annealing decouples local Jahn‐Teller distortions from long‐range cooperative ordering in CuFe2O4, stabilizing a metastable cubic phase that remains locally distorted yet globally symmetry‐frustrated. Synchrotron XRD, PDF, XPS, and in situ thermal cycling reveal how non‐equilibrium MW‐phonon interactions suppress cooperative orbital‐lattice ...

Does higher remuneration equal higher job performance?: An empirical assessment of the need-progression proposition in selected need theories

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Business Management, 2000
Improving employee job performance is central to almost all management activity. To this end, the need theories of motivation have been the foundation of many interventions to increase employee job performance.

Pressure‐Induced Drift Artifacts in Stretchable Liquid Metal ThinFilm Electrocardiogram Electrodes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A stretchable LM electrode integrated with a strain sensor enables in situ quantitative investigation of drift artifact and skin deformation. This reveals the significance of pressure‐induced drift artifact and its intimate relationship with the skin potential model.

The management of the early stages of restructuring in a tertiary-education institution: An organisational commitment perspective

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Business Management, 2004
Restructuring in business firms is often characterised by uncertainty, anxiety, low morale, tardy job performance and high levels of absenteeism and staff turnover.

Unconstrained Coordination of Pt Single Atoms on Distorted g‐C3N4 Enables Electronic Flexibility and Enhanced Microplastics Photoreforming

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals Pt single atoms anchored on distorted graphitic carbon nitride, exhibiting flexible coordination and enhanced interfacial charge transfer. Combined spectroscopy and DFT reveal asymmetric Pt─N environments that promote photoreforming of microplastics into hydrogen, demonstrating a solar‐driven pathway for plastic upcycling with ...

Physics-Informed Exploratory Factor Analysis of Flow-Rate Impedance in Box Ship Hour Productivity [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
Box Ship Hour (BSH) can be interpreted as a discrete flow rate variable because it measures the number of container boxes handled per vessel working hour.
