Ting Zhang and co-workers from the Suzhou Institute of Nano-Tech and Nano-Bionics at the Chinese Academy of Sciences develop a novel superhydrophobic and piezoresistive coating for wearable sensing devices. The coating is durable in harsh conditions and can be used to detect real-time human movement when fabricated as a wearable strain sensor.
Household Electricity Pricing: Dynamic Pricing under Different Taxation Schemes
The observed behavior in the Danish electricity retail market is considered, arguing that benefits of dynamic pricing should be analyzed with consumers’ adoption decisions in mind.
