Mathematical Modelling and Adaptive Finite Element Simulation of Viscoelastic Fluid-Structure Interaction Systems and Chemical Processes with Applications to Ophthalmology
(2023)
The aim of this thesis is the numerical analysis of nonlinear coupled partial differential equations and their application to ophthalmology. Firstly, we consider fluid-structure interaction problems where the fluid is either Newtonian or viscoelastic. The structure is modelled as a hyperelastic material. The application to ophthalmology lies in the interaction of the vitreous with its surrounding elastic structures like the sclera and the lens. The underlying flow in the vitreous is modelled by a viscoelastic Burgers ...

Magnetic Textures and Magnetization Reversal Processes in Arrays of Ferromagnetic and Exchange-Biased Hollow Hemispheres
(2022)
The main objective of this thesis is to investigate hemispherical caps prepared by thin film deposition of magnetic material compositions on top of nano- and micrometer sized silica spheres. When compared to flat magnetic discs, these microcaps differ in their magnetic properties due to the curved and therefore three-dimensional shape. However, under certain conditions, both microstructures have previously been proven to express the famous magnetic vortex texture because of the confinement into a circular shape. ...

Electronic Theory of the Magnetic Order, Anisotropy and Reversal Processes in Rolled-Up Stripes and Thin Films
(2022)
A comprehensive multiscale approach consisting of a combination of state of the art, first principles quantum theory and the flexible statistical methodologies of complex systems is applied in order to achieve a detailed microscopic understanding of the magnetic properties of rolled-up transition-metal [TM] ultrathin films and stripes. A quantum electronic investigations of the effective interactions between the local magnetic moments is performed as a function of composition and rolling radius R including the limit ...

Investigations on Diamond Thin Films as Implant Coating and Biosensing Platform
(2021)
Diamond is researched in biological context for decades. Fundamental research has established diamond as a material that combines a pronounced compatibility with biological entities and resilience against even the harshest chemical and physical conditions. The present dissertation strives to improve the abilities of diamond in this matter even further by utilizing methods of nanostructuring and biochemical functionalization. Numerous characterization methods are used to monitor each step in detail and to evaluate the ...

Pollen Metabarcoding: Theory and Application
(2022-01)
Der vom Menschen verursachte Verlust der biologischen Vielfalt bedroht die Versorgungssicherheit durch Ökosystemleistungen, wie beispielsweise Bestäubung. Da unser Überleben als Spezies hiervon abhängt, ist es notwendig, unser Wissen über die Biodiversität in beschleunigter Weise zu erweitern, um dieser Bedrohung zu begegnen. Im Gegensatz zu dem Barcoding, bei welchem ein unbestimmter Organismus mit Hilfe eines Teils seiner DNS durch Abgleich mit einer Referenzdatenbank bestimmt wird, handelt es sich beim Metabarcoding ...

Optimal Control of Quantum Information Tasks in Open Quantum Systems
(2020-07-30)
Every quantum system inevitably interacts with its environment. This is a fundamental requirement that allows us to control, measure and, in general, interact with quantum systems. In that respect, a quantum system's openness can be interpreted as prerequisite that enables quantum technologies in the first place. The latter are built to harness the intrinsic quantum mechanical behavior of quantum devices in order to build new, powerful technologies. However, a quantum system's openness also causes it to interact ...

Development of Carrier-Envelope-Phase-Stabilized, mJ-Class Laser Sources Generating Intense, Few-Cycle Laser Pulses
(2020-05-19)
Over a decade ago the frontiers of ultrashort physics and nonlinear optics have reached the attosecond timescale ($1 as = 10 ^ {-18} s$) . Currently, in order to generate isolated attosecond pulses, an intense femtosecond pulse is focused in a jet of a noble gas. Given the sufficient intensity, this leads to high harmonic generation (HHG), which can be filtered (gated) to create a single isolated attosecond pulse. The laser source for the driver pulses has to fulfill two requirements: the pulses need to be limited ...

Morphological and functional examination of neuropeptides in the circadian system of Rhyparobia maderae with special focus on myoinhibitory peptides
(2021)
Die circadiane Uhr terrestrischer Organismen erlaubt die Anpassung von Physiologie und Verhalten an 24 h Rhythmen der Umwelt wie beispielsweise den täglichen Licht-Dunkel-Wechsel. Rhyparobia maderae wurde als Organismus zur Forschung an der inneren Uhr etabliert. Die circadiane Uhr der Madeira Schabe ist die akzessorische Medulla (AME) im optischen Lobus, welche von etwa 240 Neuronen innerviert wird. Diese Neuronen exprimieren und kolokalisieren auffällig viele Neuropeptide, die als Neuromodulatoren/Neurotransmitter ...

Synthese von Ester- und Etherlipiden durch die GPAT/AGPAT-Proteinfamilie und Lipin in Dictyostelium
(2021-05-12)
The synthesis of glycerolipids starts with the acylation of lipid backbones. Two structurally different glycerolipids emerge in the cell: ether-lipids and ester-lipids. In the case of ether-lipids the first fatty acid is substituted with a fatty alcohol inside the peroxisome. By the characterization of the protein FARAT in this thesis, a key enzyme in etherlipid-synthesis was identified for D. discoideum. FARAT shows a peroxisomal localization and is in principle able to do two jobs. Firstly, it initiates the peroxisomal ...
