Orientation‐Engineered Insulator‐Metal Transition in Vanadium Dioxide

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Crystallographic orientation engineering in VO2/TiO2 heterostructures enables tunable insulator‐metal transitions. The high‐Miller‐index (102) orientation breaks in‐plane mirror symmetry, inducing anisotropic transport, while its inclined oxygen channels accelerate protonation kinetics.

Modelling a potential zoonotic spillover event of H5N1 influenza

open access: yesBMC Public Health
Background Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) is a prominent candidate for a future human pandemic arising from a zoonotic spillover event. Its best-known subtype is H5N1, with South- or South-East Asia a likely location for an initial outbreak ...

Modeling the Global Dynamic Contagion of COVID-19

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health, 2022
The COVID-19 infections have profoundly and negatively impacted the whole world. Hence, we have modeled the dynamic spread of global COVID-19 infections with the connectedness approach based on the TVP-VAR model, using the data of confirmed COVID-19 ...

Learning Work Function via Implicit Reasoning on Electrostatic Potential Landscapes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
StructPot‐CLR establishes a cross‐modal contrastive learning framework that aligns the crystal structures of 2D materials with plane‐averaged electrostatic potential landscapes for physically informed work‐function prediction. The model achieves an MAE of 0.265 eV and an R2 of 0.902 on the held‐out test set while accurately preserving key morphological

When Rivals Are Absent: Male Aggression Towards Females in Bluefin Killifish

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
The process of obtaining mates, mating, and (potentially) caring for offspring is costly. While there are inherent costs to reproduction, behavioral interactions among individuals are often the primary drivers of reproductive costs.

Abenomics' Trade Spillover [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2013
There is no escaping Japan’s competition in the world markets for goods, particularly in the automotive and electronics industries. Countries exporting to these markets are bound to feel the competitive pressure from a marked fall in the value of the yen.

Surface Neuronal‐Like Structuring of High‐Strength CFRP for Enhanced Electromagnetic Interference Shielding

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study elucidates the microstructural evolution at the material interface of Ni‐plated plain‐weave carbon fiber fabric following vacuum heat treatment at 500°C–900°C under different current densities, as well as the mechanism underlying the synergistic enhancement of electromagnetic shielding and ductility.

Strong Metal‐Support Interaction Driven Janus Reconstruction in PtRu Alloys for Low‐Temperature Hydrogen Storage

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Strong metal‐support interactions (SMSI) drive the spontaneous segregation of RuPt alloy into Janus nanoparticles on CeO2, spatially partitioning Pt‐rich domains for H2 dissociation and Ru‐rich domains for toluene adsorption. This Janus nanocatalysts yield a turnover frequency of 10 906 h−1 for toluene hydrogenation at 50 °C, which is 6.7 times that of

Border Crossing and the Logics of Space: A Case Study in Pro-Environmental Practices

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2018
We investigate whether and how workers in a transnational oil corporation carry practices, meanings, and identities between the places of work and home, focusing on environmental and health and safety practices, in order to understand the larger question,
