Shared digital artifacts – Co-creators as beneficiaries in microlearning development
(2023-08-11)
Continuing vocational training benefits from the employees’ ability to share individual experience and expertise with their co-workers, as these assets constitute competitive advantages for companies. IT-supported systems can facilitate processes of knowledge elicitation (e. g. as part of collaborative co-creation) to ensure retainment of preferred qualitative characteristics of the resulting knowledge artifacts and provide ample opportunities to manage and configure a growing number of such artifacts in a company’s ...

Impact of Pea necrotic yellow dwarf virus (PNYDV) on nodulation, N₂ fixation and yield in faba bean (Vicia faba, L.)
(2022-08-09)
Pea necrotic yellow dwarf virus (PNYDV) is a novel nanovirus in Europe, affecting various grain legumes. The impact of PNYDV on nodulation, symbiotic N₂ fixation and yield parameters in faba bean (Vicia faba L.) was investigated at controlled conditions in the greenhouse (2017), on-farm in natural infection foci (2018, 2019) and in a small-scale field experiment (2020). In the latter, the standard variety ‘Fuego’ was compared with the variety ‘GL Sunrise’ in early and late infections. In addition, the analogous effects ...

Receding-Horizon Control of Constrained Switched Systems with Neural Networks as Parametric Function Approximators
(2022-11-21)
This work studies receding-horizon control of discrete-time switched linear systems subject to polytopic constraints for the continuous states and inputs. The objective is to approximate the optimal receding-horizon control strategy for cases in which the online computation is intractable due to the necessity of solving mixed-integer quadratic programs in each discrete time instant. The proposed approach builds upon an approximated optimal finite-horizon control law in closed-loop form with guaranteed constraint ...

Reliabilität und Validität des OPD-KJ-Konfliktfragebogens bei stationär behandelten Jugendlichen
(2021-06-15)
Mit dem OPD-KJ-Konfliktfragebogen (OPD-KJ-KF) können intrapsychische Konflikte gemäß der Operationalisierten Psychodynamischen Diagnostik im Kindes- und Jugendalter (OPD-KJ-2) einfach und zeitökonomisch erfasst werden. Der Fragebogen existiert in zwei Fassungen: als Selbstbeurteilungsinstrument für Jugendliche und als Fremdbeurteilungsinstrument für Therapeutinnen und Therapeuten. In einer Stichprobe stationär behandelter Jugendlicher wurden psychometrische Gütekriterien (interne Konsistenz, Konstruktvalidität, ...

Characterization of charcoal and firewood ash for use in African peri-urban agriculture
(2020-03-05)
Background
Ample quantities of ashes generated from domestic biomass energy combustion in Ghanaian kitchens are currently disposed of despite their potential agricultural value. This study aimed to investigate the potential agricultural value of charcoal and firewood ashes in terms of differences in the chemical and mineralogical compositions, and to identify the suitability of aqua regia, H2SO4, vinegar and distilled water to extract plant nutrients (Ca, Mg, K, Na, and P). The chemical compositions were determined ...

Peanut monoculture-induced decline in fertility of Andosols in Nicaragua
(2022-08-23)
Background: Andosols are generally characterized by strong resilience to degradation and high soil fertility. This may decline during long-term peanut (Arachis hypogea) monoculture, as indicated by soil chemical and biological properties. Aims: The study investigated the monoculture-induced changes in soil chemical environment as driver for the decline in soil fertility. Methods: In this on-farm study, soils from seven sites cropped with peanut monoculture for different periods between 1 and 20 years were analyzed ...

Why has animal science not led to improved farm animal health and welfare?
(2024-01-05)
To sustain the economic viability of a livestock farm in a global market, characterised by a price undercutting competition, farmers are forced to adapt to what the market demands. At the same time, they have to care for the functionality of the farm system as a whole and of the subsystems, such as the farm animals, so that they for their part they can contribute to an economic success. Now, that animal health and welfare (AHW) has become an increasingly important issue for citizens and consumers, not only the decision ...

Conditional Freedoms: Non-State Labour in Cuba between Institutional Delegitimisation and Civic Recognition
(2023-09-11)
During the height of its power over everyday life, between 1968 and 1993, the Cuban Communist Party outlawed virtually all non-state labour and exchange. Since then, however, its continuity in power has increasingly depended on devolution: shifting responsibility for the provision of basic goods and services from failing state enterprises back to the self-employed. The latter now produce the majority of food and basic products; receive most of the national income from tourism, remittances and foreign investment; and ...

New Skills Unlocked
(Verlag Werner Hülsbusch, 2024)
Wie kommunizieren die »Lego«-Spiele mit uns ganz ohne Sprache? Spielen wir in »Die Sims« wirklich Gott, wie es die Werbung verspricht? Was macht historische Spiele authentisch und wie lenkt die Kamera unseren Blick auf Körper in Videospielen?
Diesen und noch vielen anderen Fragen geht der Sammelband nach und zeigt damit Verbindungen von Game Studies und fachwissenschaftlichen Perspektiven auf. Dafür werden Theorien, Methoden und Impulse aus den Geistes- und Kulturwissenschaften und angrenzenden Gebieten (u.a. ...

Ultra-high performance alkali-activated slag as a reusable mold for light metal casting
(2023-12-06)
Light metal die casting is usually performed using steel molds. However, these lead to a reduced quality of the casting due to the occurrence of metal corrosion on the surface and the incorporation of hydrogen into the casting as a result of required process chemistry. Ultra-high performance concrete based on alkali-activated slag can be used to produce mineral molds for aluminum casting. The use of reusable mineral molds not only enables the production of various thin-walled geometries. The risk of metal corrosion ...
