Do dogs preferentially encode the identity of the target object or the location of others’ actions? by Lonardo, L, Völter, CJ, Hepach, R, Lamm, C, Huber, L

“…We conclude that dogs, lacking motor experience with the observed actions of grasping or kicking performed by a human or inanimate agent, might interpret such actions as directed toward a specific location rather than a specific object. …”

Learning design for short-duration e-textile workshops: outcomes on knowledge and skills by Ioannou, Andri, Miliou, Ourania, Georgiou, Yiannis, Timotheou, Stella, Barkhuus, Louise, Rode, Jennifer

“…We further document a series of emerging challenges, including the children’s unwillingness to engage or lack of adeptness with software, a tension between aesthetics and construction, creativity limited by samples of previous e-textile projects, and the difficulty in grasping the materiality of e-textiles. We propose that some direct instruction and facilitation is not incompatible with the making ethos; the approach can help address these challenges, allowing young children to benefit from their participation in short-duration e-textile workshops.…”

Mitigating initial capacity loss for practical lithium-ion battery by Cao, Shengkai

“…While numerous promising anode materials with optimized electrochemical performance, such as fast-charging capability and long-term stability have been developed, they still suffer from low initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) due to solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) formation and lithium trapping, which impede their commercialization. In this thesis, new insights and strategies for the two mechanisms leading to initial capacity loss (ICL) based on different type of anode materials were investigated.…”
