Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The assessment of energy efficiency in water facilities is receiving increasing attention as a key strategy in the transition toward an energy‐neutral urban water cycle. This study evaluates the energy efficiency of 146 drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs) in Chile by applying a latent class stochastic frontier analysis (LCSFA) to account ...

Thin‐Wall Single‐Crystal Gold Nanoelectrodes toward Advanced Chemical Probing and Imaging
Small, EarlyView.We present a template‐assisted, non‐self‐limited polyol‐based growth strategy that realizes single‐crystalline, thin‐walled Au UMEs/NEs, as well as multifunctional probes, with high yield (>80%). The method provides precise control over electrode dimensions, from sub‐100 nm to micron‐scale radii and reliably produces long, continuous single‐crystal ...

Systems Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Structural Complexity is perceived as driving cost in system development, yet managing it effectively requires empirical understanding. This study investigates human decision‐making using a toy transportation‐style network design task, focusing on how Structural Complexity, Effort, and Performance interact. Seventy‐four participants (primarily
