Sharing Competences: The Impact of Local Institutional Settings on Voter Turnout [PDF]
Institutions are common predictors of voter turnout. Most research in this field focuses on cross-country comparisons of voting systems, like the impact of compulsory voting or registration systems.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A new phase‐change material encapsulated membrane offers more thermal resilience stability and safety than the conventional separators for batteries. ABSTRACT Thermal runaway in lithium‐ion batteries arises from the intrinsic coupling between heat generation and ion transport, yet conventional shutdown separators primarily rely on passive pore collapse

Does Voting History Matter? Analysing Persistence in Turnout [PDF]
Individuals who vote in one election are also more likely to vote in the next. Modelling the causal relationship between past and current voting decisions however is intrinsically difficult, as this positive association can exist due to habit formation ...

Sky‐Directional Radiative Cooling Meta‐Films for Daylighting Windows
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A geometry‐mediated microprism meta‐film enables transparent, sky‐directional radiative cooling for daylighting windows. By decoupling control of visible transmittance from mid‐infrared emissivity, ground‐emitted heat absorption is suppressed while skyward heat dissipation is enhanced.

Turnout and the modeling of economic conditions: Evidence from Portuguese elections [PDF]
This paper analyzes the impact of economic conditions on voter turnout at Portuguese legislative and municipal elections. We use four extensive datasets to estimate an economic turnout model in which local economic variables are included in quadratic ...

, 2014 Voters that come of age at roughly the same time share common influences because of the specific political context during their formative years. We can therefore assume the errors in a model explaining their political behavior to be dependent.

Why Is Participation Low in Referendums? Lessons from Latin America
Latin American Research ReviewWhether referendums, initiatives, and other mechanisms of direct democracy enhance representative systems is a matter of debate. Skeptics note—among other criticisms—that turnout tends to be low in referendums, often lower than in candidate elections in ...

Diagnostics of railway turnout systems using tools of centralization blocking system
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018 Turnout systems are one of the few most important components of the railway infrastructure. Recently there has been a revival of research aimed at prognostics and health management of railway turnout systems.
