In this paper we present a study of a Phase Change Material type Perovskite Layerwhich have solid-solid transitions and thermal properties suitable for Thermal EnergyStorage. Structural study shows that organic chain in this organic-inorganic compoundpresents “trans” and “gauche”...

In this article we examine social neuroeconomics from a complex systems point of view, that is rooted in the theory and methods of informationally coupled self-organizing dynamical systems. Our contribution focuses on establishinng a theoretical perspective within which one can interpret...
