Revealing the biotoxicity of phosphorene oxide nanosheets based on the villin headpiece by Zhang, Wei, Gou, Yuanyuan, Cheng, Li, Dong, Kaiwei, Sheng, Yijie, Ye, Chao, Yang, Xianqing, Mu, Yuguang

“…Compared with the dispersion interaction, the electrostatic interaction between PO and the protein has a negligible effect on the structural damage of HP35. These findings might shed light on the biological toxicity of PO nanosheets and would be helpful for future potential biomedical applications of PO nanosheets, such as nanodrugs and antibacterial agents.…”

Avoiding sovereign default contagion: A normative analysis by De Ferra, S, Mallucci, E

“…First, we look at cross-country bailouts. We find that whenever agents anticipate them, bailouts induce higher borrowings, and yet still enhance welfare. …”

House price expectations and inflation expectations: evidence from survey data by Dhamija, V, Nunes, R, Tara, R

“…Housing is a closely monitored and prominent sector for households. We find that households tend to overweight house price expectations when forming inflation expectations with a coefficient of 25–45 percent, significantly above the weight of house prices in the inflation index. …”

Suppressing condensation frosting using micropatterned ice walls by Zuo, Zichao, Zhao, Yugang, Li, Kang, Zhang, Hua, Yang, Chun

“…The proposed surface shows reasonable durability when exposed to varying substrate supercooling, and frost coverage may increase due to covering and fracturing of the out-of-plane growth of feather-like ice clusters at large substrate supercooling. Our findings provide an effective anti-frosting surface design that doesn't require any chemical or mechanical modifications on the targeted surfaces, showing great advantages compared to conventional icephobic surface designs.…”
