Dual‐Responsive Yarn‐Based Artificial Muscles for Adaptive Thermal Management

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by the conscious movements of skeletal muscle, a novel hybrid yarn‐based artificial muscle (HYAM) coupling moisture actuation with controllable recovery is developed. This unique design increases actuation stroke by 128% and shortens recovery time by 91%. This unique design enhances the actuation stroke by 128% and reduces the recovery time by

Lattice Dynamics Across the High‐Pressure Phase Transition in CrTe

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT High‐pressure physics provides a powerful means of tuning interatomic interactions, enabling the discovery of novel structural and physical phenomena in materials. Chromium telluride, a transition metal chalcogenide, is particularly responsive to such external stimuli, exhibiting a broad spectrum of pressure‐, temperature‐, and stoichiometry ...

Did the Indian Green Revolution Change the Farm Size–Productivity Relationship?

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine the relationship between farm size and productivity during India's Green Revolution, a period of rapid technological transformation. Using a unique panel of over 5000 Indian farm households that spans the Green Revolution (1971–1999), we show that the classic (linear) inverse farm size–productivity relationship gradually evolved ...
