A behavioural model of the adoption and use of new telecommunications media: the effects of communication scenarios and media product/service attributes [PDF]
Recent years have seen the dramatic growth of new modes of communication. Above and beyond using land line and mobile phone for voice real-time communication, people spend increasing amounts of time receiving and sending messages through social networks (

Bioinspired Shape‐Memory Hook Fasteners With Programmable Interlocking and Silent Release
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Bioinspired hook fasteners made from epoxy shape‐memory polymers are shown to switch between strong, secure attachment and gentle, silent release when heated. By combining programmable geometry and material response, these adaptive fasteners outperform commercial systems in strength and noise control, enabling new solutions for robotics, medical ...

Covariance estimation via Fourier method in the presence of asynchronous trading and microstructure noise [PDF]
We analyze the effects of market microstructure noise on the Fourier estimator of multivariate volatilities. We prove that the estimator is consistent in the case of asynchronous data and robust in the presence of microstructure noise.

Confucianism And Stock Price Synchronization
Frontiers in Business, Economics and ManagementThis paper empirically examines the effect of Confucian culture on stock price synchronization by selecting data from listed companies from 2008-2021. The results show that Confucian culture can significantly reduce the level of stock price synchronization and does so mainly by suppressing managers' self-interested motives and improving the quality of ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...

Shareholder activism in Japan: social pressure, private cost and organized crime [PDF]
Prior research provides mixed results on the capacity of American shareholder activists to improve managerial behavior. In Japan, however, alternative means of external control (e.g. take-over, litigations) are not as effective as in the U.S. Challenging

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Edible electronics needs integrated logic circuits for computation and control. This work presents a potentially edible printed chitosan‐gated transistor with a design optimized for integration in circuits. Its implementation in integrated logic gates and circuits operating at low voltage (0.7 V) is demonstrated, as well as the compatibility with an ...

Time-Entanglement Between Mind and Matter [PDF]
, 2003 This contribution explores Wolfgang Pauli's idea that mind and matter are complementary aspects of the same reality. We adopt the working hypothesis that there is an undivided timeless primordial reality (the primordial "one world'').

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A chiral photodetector capable of selectively distinguishing left‐ and right‐handed circularly polarized light is experimentally demonstrated. The device, which features a nanopatterned electrode inverse‐designed by a genetic algorithm within a metal–dielectric–metal nanocavity that incorporates a vacuum‐deposited small‐molecule multilayer, exhibits ...
