Modeling and Characterization of a Self‐Sensing Soft Hydraulic Muscle

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This article presents the self‐sensing soft hydraulic muscle (SSHM), a novel soft actuator capable of simultaneously sensing force and length without external sensors. A comprehensive model accurately predicts SSHM behavior, validated experimentally with minimal errors. Using propylene glycol enhances durability and reduces hysteresis.

Uncovering renewable energy policy impact channels on land values, the local farm structure, and farmland heterogeneity

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Germany's Renewable Energy Sources Act (REA), enacted in 2000 and subsequently amended, subsidized national renewable energy production with fixed feed‐in tariffs for renewable energy sources (RE) from wind, solar, and biogas. Empirical studies suggest that the policy was creating windfall effects for landowners and attribute farmland use ...

A Systematic Review of Adverse Childhood Experiences and Epigenetic Age Acceleration in Later Adult Life Measured With Second and Third‐Generation Epigenetic Clocks

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examined the relationship between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and epigenetic age acceleration (EAA) in adulthood as measured by second and third generation epigenetic clocks by performing a systematic review of the literature. The electronic databases MEDLINE and EMBASE were searched on 17 July 2023.

Building Community Amidst the Institutional Whiteness of Graduate Study: Black Joy and Maroon Moves in an Academic Marronage

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article reflects on the construction of a supportive community of Black Afro‐diasporic graduate students and their supervisors researching issues relating to race in the field of education in Australia. It draws on the concept of marronage—a term rooted in the fugitive act of becoming a maroon, where enslaved people enacted an escape in ...

When Does Alzheimer's Disease Start? Plasma Aβ42/40 Assays Show Steep Changes at Aβ‐PET Centiloid 15, Mean Age of 66 Years

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Sporadic late‐onset Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by a long pre‐clinical phase where amyloid‐beta (Aβ) and tau begin to accumulate in the brain. The primary objective was to determine the age at which AD starts by finding the average population age when both positron emission tomography (PET) Aβ (Aβ‐PET) and plasma Aβ42/40 become ...

Individualized Atrophy‐Based Prediction of Dementia Progression in Familial Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration With Bayesian Linear Mixed‐Effects Modeling

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Age of symptom onset is highly variable in familial frontotemporal lobar degeneration (f‐FTLD). Accurate prediction of onset would inform clinical management and trial enrollment. Prior studies indicate that individualized maps of brain atrophy can predict conversion to dementia in f‐FTLD.

Nanomaterial‐Mediated Near‐Infrared Photothermal Neuromodulation for Neurologic Disorders

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
This review summarizes how near‐infrared light activates photothermal nanomaterials to enable noninvasive neuromodulation with high spatiotemporal precision. It elucidates the underlying mechanisms, explores targeted therapeutic applications for neurological disorders, discusses integration with optogenetics and biosensors, and addresses future ...

MOFs as New Catalytic Platform for Covalent Adaptable Networks: Catalysis Meets Reinforcement

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
A novel heterogeneous catalytic platform for covalent adaptable networks (CANs) is introduced by immobilizing bases of low molecular weight on metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs). The obtained catalyst UiO‐TBD benefits from the high loading capacity of the MOF and demonstrates a higher thermal stability relative to free TBD.
