Dundee Discussion Papers in Economics 228:A soft edge target zone model: theory and application to Hong Kong [PDF]
, 2009 Hong Kong’s currency is pegged to the US dollar in a currency board arrangement. In autumn 2003,the Hong Kong dollar appreciated from close to 7.80 per US dollar to 7.70, as investors feared that the currency board would be abandoned. In the wake of this

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Aqueous Zn(II) Salphen metallofibers decorated with PNIPAM undergo reversible, multi‐stimuli‐responsive hierarchical bundling. This higher‐order structuring kinetically stabilizes the otherwise fragile assemblies against dilution, acidic hydrolysis, and transmetallation, enables selective sorting of responsive fibers, and programs hydrogelation at ...

Indirect estimation of Markov switching models with endogenous switching [PDF]
Markov Switching models have been successfully applied to many economic problems. The most popular version of these models implies that the change in the state is driven by a Markov Chain and that the state is an exogenous discrete unobserved variable ...

Product innovation when consumers have switching costs [PDF]
Economists have long recognized that in free markets, incentives to innovate will be diluted unless some factors grant innovators with a temporary monopoly. Patenting is the most cited factor in the economic literature.

Autonomous Folding of Soft Matter From Living Polymers
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Origami structures are endowed with “living” polymer creases that grow, remodel, and stiffen in response to nutrient solutions. This post‐fabrication growth enables autonomous folding, iterative regrowth, and mechanical tuning involving origami assemblies, such as cranes, Miura‐ori tessellations, rigid and non‐rigid square‐twist patterns, establishing ...

Europe cosmopolitical or populist : justice and soft power in perspective.
, 2016 Europa afronta hoy un dilema: ser cosmopolita o dejar de serlo. El peligro de desintegración de la Unión Europea anunciado por los resultados del reciente brexit y por el auge de los populismos de derecha en toda Europa reclama un ejercicio de soft power

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This review examines passive, active, and hybrid liquid manipulation strategies, highlighting hybrid approaches as an emerging route to reconcile energy efficiency with adaptive control. By actively reconstructing passive surfaces to store programmable interfacial energy, hybrid systems enable flexible yet low‐power liquid transport, with perspectives ...

Establishing Atomic Coherence in Twisted Oxide Membranes Containing Volatile Elements
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Twisted oxide membranes containing volatile elements often suffer from amorphous interfacial dead layers that suppress coupling. An oxygen‐annealing strategy establishes atomically coherent and chemically bonded interfaces in twisted NaNbO3 membranes, enabling coherent oxide moiré architectures in volatile‐element‐containing systems.

Soft Skins With Reversible Thickness Morphing: Materials, Mechanisms, and Applications
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Evolution of electronic skin (e‐skin) technologies toward adaptive, multifunctional soft skins. Phase I highlights early rigid and discrete sensory interfaces. Phase II shows the transition toward flexible, stretchable, and large‐area e‐skin. Phase III captures the emergence of computational e‐skin.
