A network polymer with photoinduced mending abilities was prepared from cinnamoyl-telechelic prepolymer of poly(butylene adipate), PBAC2, and a tetra-cinnamoyl linker, C4, by photodimerization. The photodimerization reaction of the cinnamoyl groups was analyzed using both ultraviolet (UV)/visible (vis) and infrared (IR) spectroscopy. In the reaction, the isomerization of the cinnamate group fro...

Broadly speaking, there are two kinds of semantics-aware assistant systems for mathematics: proof assistants express the semantic in logic and emphasize deduction, and computer algebra systems express the semantics in programming languages and emphasize computation. Combining the complementary strengths of both approaches while mending their complementary weaknesses has been an important goal o...

The importance of clothing management and care has been discussed for several centuries, during which time strict methods procedures have proposed the selection, storage, laundering, mending in order to prevent fabrics from being impacted by elements that cause them deteriorate, even before their expected functional lifespan. Yet, poorly maintained can harm a person's physical appearance impres...

Contemporary organizations increasingly rely on digital technologies structuring how work gets done. Algorithms in particular are fundamental for such technologies. Management literature transformation has studied algorithms either automate or augment work. In doing so, this treats as largely independent from existing practices. This paper, the contrary, theorizes and empirically illustrates tr...
