Symbols of Climate Action: Audit Labor and the Production of Carbon Credits

Economic Anthropology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Voluntary carbon markets (VCMs) are promoted as tools for financing climate mitigation, yet their effectiveness and credibility remain contested. This article examines how carbon credits are produced and destabilized as symbols of climate action, emphasizing the forms of ecological and audit labor that sustain their legitimacy.

Toward a theory of Bayesian experimentation in early‐stage ventures

Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary The entrepreneurship literature has established the benefits of experimentation but has paid comparatively little attention to its costs. We develop a Bayesian model to illustrate the entrepreneurial choice between direct and experimental entry.

Sampling, Mobility, and Anchoring in Small‐Body Sampling Robots: A Comprehensive Review

SmartBot, EarlyView.
Small‐body sampling robots are exploration systems that perform contact, sampling, and stable operations on microgravity bodies such as asteroids and comets. The authors review representative robot architectures and key technologies, focusing on the mechanisms, evolution, and coupling of sampling, mobility, and anchoring.

Resource reallocation across successive systemic innovations: How Rolls‐Royce shaped the evolution of the turbojet, turboprop, and turbofan

Strategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Despite the importance of resource reallocation in shaping a variety of strategic outcomes, strategy scholars have paid only limited attention to the processes by which firms reallocate their resources across successive systemic innovations.

Unified Steep‐Slope Switching and Non‐Volatile Memory in a Complementarily Stabilized van der Waals Ferroelectric Transistor

Small, EarlyView.
We present a van der Waals FeNC‐FET that simultaneously achieves sub‐60 mV/dec steep switching and non‐volatile memory within a single transistor. A CIPS/h‐BN/α‐In2Se3 bi‐ferroelectric gate stack enables a stabilized negative‐capacitance state in FE1 while maintaining the bistable polarization of FE2.

A Generalized Automated Framework for Thermal Characterization: From Bulk Materials to Complex Heterostructures

Small, EarlyView.
An automated MATLAB framework for inverse photoacoustic analysis enables precise thermal characterization of complex multilayer films. Application to electrodeposited CuxSe reveals a stoichiometry‐dependent thermal conductivity governed by lattice anharmonicity, not grain‐size scattering, in these superionic materials. ABSTRACT Precise determination of

Liquid Crystal Polymers as Intrinsically Magnetic and Programmable Soft Materials for Microrobotics

Small, EarlyView.
Liquid crystal polymers (LCPs) are proposed as intrinsically magnetic, programmable, soft materials for microrobotics. Magnetic torque‐driven manipulation of LCP microobjects is achieved and characterized in terms of the step‐out frequency, reaching ∼0.6 Hz in a ∼250 mT magnetic field. The orientation of LCP microobjects in the magnetic field and their

A Multi‐Node Wearable Monitoring System for Firefighters With Edge AI and LoRa‐BLE Heterogeneous Communication

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
A multinode wearable system tailored for firefighters is presented, featuring LoRa‐BLE heterogeneous communication and edge‐side deep learning. It integrates a lightweight 1D‐CNN for real‐time posture recognition and an adaptive Physiological Strain Index (aPSI) model, ensuring reliable status monitoring and safety warning in complex fireground ...

Identification of invisible damage in prestressed concrete bridges—A demonstrator case using coda wave interferometry

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract During their life cycle, prestressed concrete bridges are prone to wire breaks of their tendons due to fatigue or stress corrosion cracking. However, not all structures show visible cracking on the surface, which would provide timely warning of otherwise invisible damage. Brittle failure may occur.

Looking for Trouble: Pre‐Intervention Monitoring in Human and AI Driver Training

Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
We compare two types of situations involving monitoring of car driving: a driving instructor overseeing a trainee driver and a safety driver overseeing the performance of autonomous vehicle (AV) software. Our focus is on instances of monitoring that precede (1) interventions that are aborted before impacting the driving and (2) actual interventions on ...
