Dual‐Mode Magnetic Elastomer for On‐Demand Motion and Degradation
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A dual‐mode magnetic elastomer is introduced, enabling DC field‐driven programmable actuation and AC field‐driven magnetothermal degradation. GHz‐range magnetic fields generate ultrafast heating of magnetic nanoparticles that activates cleavage of the silicone elastomer matrix.

On modeling pollution-generating technologies [PDF]
Distinguishing between intended ("good") production and unintended or residual ("bad") generation, we introduce the concept of by-production. In by-production technologies, pollution is an output that satises a "costly disposability" assumption and ...

Assessment of Mixed Network Processes with Shared Inputs and Undesirable Factors
Operations Research and Decisions, 2020 In the real world, there are processes whose structures are like a parallel-series mixed network. Network data envelopment analysis (NDEA) is one of the appropriate methods for assessing the performance of processes with these structures.

A Family Law of Contemporary and Possible Weaknesses: Disposal Parental Forward or Backward?
, 2015 Hard work is define where and how the family institution had begun. Although it has gone through numerous and constant transformations, family resisted the time and suited the needs of society. The end of patriarchy, equality of rights and duties between men and women, the equitable division of tasks and shared responsibilities entailed numerous ...

Water‐Stable Paper‐Based Laser‐Induced Graphene With Asymmetric Water Adhesion and Wettability
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Paper‐based electronics are attractive for sustainable and disposable devices, but often fail in wet environments. By introducing Parafilm into cellulose paper combined with laser conversion, two graphene surfaces with different water interactions are created.
