A Complexity‐Based Approach to Migration Policy Change: The Case of the German Residence Act
Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper adapts and applies existing indicators to measure the complexity of German migration policy over time. Building on recent scholarship that conceptualizes migration policy as multidimensional, I adapt a measurement strategy from the EUPLEX Project to capture three key components of regulatory complexity: structural, linguistic, and ...

Ratcheting of 316L stainless steel thin wire under tension-torsion loading
Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2016 A series of cyclic tension-torsion tests under symmetric shear strain and asymmetric axial stress control in various loading paths are conducted on 100 ?m-diameter 316L steel wires applying a micro tensiontorsion fatigue testing apparatus. The ratcheting

The Environmental Race to the Bottom, Revisited
Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study revisits the environmental race to the bottom thesis in the United States, which argues that states compete for mobile capital by relaxing environmental regulations. Examining state‐level enforcement of federal surface mining and air pollution control regulation over a 35‐year period, we find robust evidence of strategic interaction

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...
