How to waste a crisis : budget cuts and public service reform [PDF]
, 2011 In the aftermath of the financial crisis, governments have proposed sav-ing money by reforming public services. This paper argues that tight budget constraints make reform harder. Governments are uncertain which depart- ments are effective.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Developing recyclable materials for magnetic robotics that combine rapid response and self‐healing properties is challenging. Hence, this study focuses on the integration of magnetothermal nanoparticles into a dynamic sorbitol‐based vitrimer, a recyclable composite capable of remote actuation and self‐healing by magnetic heating.

Factors determining the occurrence of Flat Bugs (Aradidae) in beech dominated forests [PDF]
, 2007 The habitat requirements of most Aradidae and the decisive factors that influence their occurrence are still poorly understood. To reduce this lack of knowledge a standardised survey of Aradidae in two large beech forest areas of Bavaria (northern ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This paper presents a digital microfluidics‐based technique for transferring and reconfiguring soft nanomembranes. Laser‐machined nanothin membranes are picked up, transported, and aligned via tailored surface tension and the actuation of water droplets, enabling the development of flexible electronics, the integration of functional materials on 3D ...

The effect of size of black cherry stumps on the composition of fungal communities colonising stumps
Open Life Sciences, 2019 We investigated fungal communities colonising black cherry stumps. We tested the hypothesis that black cherry stumps of greater diameter should be characterised by more diverse fungal communities than stumps of smaller diameter. The material for analyses
