There is an abundance of research on the impact of various student level covariates on teacher value-added scores; however, less is known about the impact of teacher-level and school-level covariates. This study uses hierarchical linear … more

Switchable and Memorable Adhesion of Gold-Coated Microspheres with Electrochemical Modulation

Description: Switchable adhesives using stimuli-responsive systems have many applications, including transfer printing, climbing robots, and gripping in pick and place processes. Among these adhesives, electroadhesive surface can spontaneously adjust their adhesion in response to an external electric field. However, electroadhesives usually need high voltage (e.g. kV) and the adhesion disappears upon turning off the signal. These limitations make them complicated and costly. In this research, we demonstrate… more
