Economics studies cover the source, measure, consequence of noise pollution, as well as the econometric methods used to identify the causal impact of noise pollution on socioeconomic welfare. There are broad… arXiv — econ.GN (General Economics preprints) · 22 Jul 2026 Research & science The Price of Quietness: How a Pandemic Affects City Dwellers' Response to Road Traffic Noise arXiv:2607.18677v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Using the outbreak of COVID-19 in Singapore as a quasi-natural experiment, we investigate tenants' changing responses to road traffic noise in the rental housing market, using 46,980 transaction records between 2006 and 2022. Our difference-in-differences estimates show that road traffic noise decreases housing rents by 3.8% immediately after the … arXiv — econ.GN (General Economics preprints) · 22 Jul 2026 Research & science Measuring AI innovation with trademark data arXiv:2607.18795v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Researchers, managers and policymakers are exploring different approaches and data sources to map the development and the diffusion of Artificial Intelligence (AI). In this research note, we illustrate the opportunities offered by trademark data. We argue that AI trademarks can complement AI patents to capture different dimensions of AI innovation… arXiv — econ.GN (General Economics preprints) · 22 Jul 2026 Research & science Dead Reckoning: Counting Your Customers Who Never Say Goodbye arXiv:2607.18623v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Firms in non-contractual commerce face the challenge of knowing how many customers they actually have because customers can stop buying without ever saying they have left. Buy-Till-You-Die models address this by estimating each customer's probability of being alive, a quantity called P(alive) and used in every major software tool for dashboards,… arXiv — econ.GN (General Economics preprints) · 22 Jul 2026 Research & science vop_poc_nz: A Python Framework for Distributional Cost-Effectiveness and Value of Perspective Analysis arXiv:2512.03596v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Health economic evaluations are sensitive to the choice of analytical perspective (e.g., health system vs. societal). We present vop_poc_nz, a Python package for Distributional Cost-Effectiveness Analysis (DCEA), Markov cohort modeling, probabilistic sensitivity analysis, value of information, and explicit comparison of analytical perspectives… arXiv — econ.GN (General Economics preprints) · 22 Jul 2026 Research & science Global Automation Atlas arXiv:2605.17086v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Automation can displace or complement labour, but this need not be constant across economies. Existing exposure measures typically assign fixed scores to tasks or occupations and capture cross-country variation through employment structure. Here we show that feasible automation depends jointly on task content and country-level conditions.

This being a phenomena where the resonant modes of a scattering object produce total destructive interference in the backscatter direction. Our design consists of a dielectric shell and an interior metal element that provide the … arXiv — physics.app-ph (Applied Physics preprints) · 22 Jul 2026 Research & science Ambient Pressure-Driven Actuators and Shape-Morphing Metamaterials arXiv:2607.18982v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Actuators which change shape in response to ambient pressure have great potential for use in extreme environments, from space to the deep ocean. Bi-layer actuators have so far not been explored to this end, despite their lightness and mechanical simplicity (there is no requirement for a separate power source or pump, for example) making them ideal… arXiv — physics.app-ph (Applied Physics preprints) · 22 Jul 2026 Research & science The Butterfly Defect Effect in Cylindrical Shell Buckling: Non-localized Interactions of Localized Imperfections arXiv:2607.19245v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We investigate the buckling of axially compressed cylindrical shells containing localized defects, focusing on interactions among multiple defects and between them and the shell edges. Using high-fidelity finite-element simulations, we first characterize the parameter space of single-dimple sensitivity, defect-edge coupling, and pairwise defect-de… arXiv — physics.app-ph (Applied Physics preprints) · 22 Jul 2026
