Stakeholder roles in sustainable supply chain management: a literature review
(2022-10-25)
Since ecological deterioration and social discrepancy are intensifying, multiple stakeholders are driving companies to incorporate sustainability in their supply chains. Thus, integrating non-traditional supply chain stakeholders, such as non-governmental organizations and competitors, in supply chain practices is essential for achieving a more sustainable supply chain. Hence, this research aims to show how stakeholders and their roles are related to sustainable supply chain management practices. A systematic literature ...

Valence sound symbolism across language families: a comparison between Japanese and German
(2022-12-13)
Vowels are associated with valence, so that words containing /i/ (as in English meet) compared with /o/ (as in French rose) are typically judged to match positively valenced persons and objects. As yet, valence sound symbolism has been mainly observed for Indo-European languages. The present research extends this to a comparison of Japanese-speaking and German-speaking participants. Participants invented pseudo-words as names for faces with different emotional expressions (happy vs. neutral vs. sad vs. angry). For ...

Effect of Thermo-Mechanically Activated Precipitation on the Hot Deformation Behavior of High Strength Aluminum Alloy AA7075
(2022-09-26)
The present study investigates the effect of two different microstructural conditions on the hot deformation behavior of precipitation-hardenable AA7075 by compression tests ranging from 200 °C to 350 °C and strain rates from 0.1 s-¹ to 10 s-¹. The first condition is solution heat-treated and quenched in water, whereas the second condition is achieved by subsequent artificial aging and stabilization for 24 h at the respective intended deformation temperature. Both conditions indicate an increase in flow stress with ...

Investigating Adsorption-Based Atmospheric Water Harvesting Potential for Pakistan
(2022-10-03)
Atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) can provide clean and safe drinking water in remote areas. The present study provides a comprehensive review of adsorption-based AWH by using the scientometric approach. The publication types are mainly composed of articles and reviews, accounting for 75.37% and 11.19% of the total, respectively. Among these publications, ~95.1% were published in English and came from 154 different journals which demonstrates that researchers have shown a great interest in this field. However, much ...

An insight into the runs of homozygosity distribution and breed differentiation in Mangalitsa pigs
(2022-10-18)
Mangalitsa pigs exhibit three distinct coat color patterns based on which they are described as Red, Blond, and Swallow-bellied. The current study investigated genome-wide diversity and selection signatures in the three breeds using fixation index, runs of homozygosity and population structure analyses. The analyses were originally based on quality-controlled data on 77 Mangalitsa animals from Germany, including 23 Blond, 30 Swallow-bellied and 24 Red Mangalitsa genotyped with a customized version of the ProcineSNP60 ...

Kann die Schule die Selbstwertentwicklung Jugendlicher positiv beeinflussen?
(2022-02-22)
Die drei Grundbedürfnisse Autonomie, Kompetenzwahrnehmung und soziale Eingebundenheit wurden wiederholt als mögliche Determinanten eines globalen Selbstwerts untersucht. Doch nur wenige dieser Untersuchungen erfassen explizit eine mehrjährige Selbstwertentwicklung und die Rolle der Schule bei der Erfüllung der Grundbedürfnisse während der Adoleszenz. In der vorliegenden Studie werden die Angaben von 334 Schüler*innen zur Gewährung von Autonomie durch die Lehrkräfte sowie deren Kompetenzrückmeldungen und die soziale ...

Recurrent haploid selection in a population of sweet corn (Zea mays convar. saccharata)
(2022-07-31)
Recurrent haploid selection is based on the phenotype of haploid plants. This selection method was reported to be very effective because of the high selection pressure. The aim of this study was to quantify the effect of five generations of recurrent haploid selection on a sweet corn population developed by intercrossing 40 hybrid cultivars. We compared the initial population, five cycles of recurrent haploid selection, and mass selection after five cycles in six environments. The results indicated that recurrent ...

Effect of Combined Forming and Aging Processes on the Mechanical Properties of the Precipitation-Hardenable High-Strength Aluminum Alloys AA6082 and AA7075
(2022-07-25)
The recently increasing demand for hot stamped aluminum components in the automotive and aerospace industries explains the necessity of designing efficient and resource-conserving thermomechanical processes. Within the thermo-mechanical process, the simultaneous effect of deformation and temperature accelerate the precipitation kinetics. Therefore, this study focuses on the combined effect of forming and aging processes on the mechanical properties of high-strength aluminum alloys AA6082 and AA7075. For this aim, two ...

Composite spatial manipulation framework for redirected walking
(2022-10-31)
In this study, we present a composite spatial manipulation framework for the redirected walking technique. The proposed framework focuses on utilizing two different approaches simultaneously to manipulate the user’s position and orientation in the physical space, aiming to substantially improve their redirection in a confined physical space and reduce the special requirements for the RDW technique. Each approach utilizes different perceptual processes. The first is a discrete spatial manipulation approach that ...

Comparative Analysis of Resource and Climate Footprints for Different Heating Systems in Building Information Modeling
(2022-10-31)
Buildings play an important role to meet Sustainable Development Goals, especially regarding the use of resources and greenhouse gas emissions. They are increasingly designed with energy-efficient solutions regarding their operations, while the related use of natural resources is still insufficiently considered. In this article, a methodology in Building Information Modeling is proposed to measure the resource and climate footprints of buildings’ heating systems. The methodology is applied to a case study building ...
