Two‐Way Shape Memory Polymer Composite Gripper for Adaptive Robotic Applications
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.A two‐way shape memory polymer (SMP) composite is developed with intrinsic shape‐changing capability driven solely by temperature, eliminating external actuation loads. Embedding the SMP in a low‐stiffness elastomeric matrix enabled reversible transformations during heating and cooling cycles.

Capital taxation and rent seeking [PDF]
Revue d'économie politique, 2019 Nous étudions l’imposition optimale du capital dans une économie en concurrence imparfaite, où le profit économique se transforme en rémunération des facteurs privés utilisés pour la recherche de rente. L’impôt optimal sur le revenu du capital compense la différence entre les rendements marginaux social et privé du capital, résultant de la recherche de

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Lactate in cervical cancer induces HNRNPU K181 lactylation, opposed by NAA50‐mediated acetylation and suppressed by Pazopanib. This lactylation enhances HNRNPU binding to PHGDH pre‐mRNA exon 1, maintaining exon 1‐containing transcripts and mRNA stability, thereby activating serine metabolism.
