A theory of political divergence and gradual institutional change

American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Why do some societies succeed in breaking away from historical traditions while others remain trapped? This paper proposes a formal theory to investigate the interaction between short‐run and long‐run political dynamics, highlighting a co‐evolution of political institutions and social structures.

Emerging insights into amino acid metabolism in the heart: implications for cardiovascular diseases and therapeutic targeting

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
As a metabolically versatile organ, the heart is capable of generating energy from a wide range of substrates. Although fatty acid and glucose metabolism in the heart have been extensively studied, the contribution of amino acid metabolism to cardiac physiology and disease is gaining increasing attention.

The effects of environmental regulations on performance of firms with heterogeneous resilience

Canadian Journal of Economics/Revue canadienne d'économique, EarlyView.
Abstract This study explores the impacts of environmental regulations on performance of heterogeneous firms through both theoretical modelling and empirical analysis. It further examines the role of firm resilience in moderating these impacts. We develop a dynamic general equilibrium model predicting that a stricter environmental regulation increases ...

Fast Nodal Hessian Computation for Peridynamic Fracture Simulation

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
A fast, exact nodal Hessian computation for Non‐Ordinary State‐Based Peridynamics is introduced through analytical simplification and a warp‐centric GPU strategy. The method accelerates preconditioned solvers and Vertex Block Descent, enabling interactive fracture simulation with physical accuracy.
