Lurchi
(KinderundJugendmedien.de – Wissenschaftliches Internetportal für Kindermedien und Jugendmedien, 2017-08-15)
Der vorliegende Beitrag beleuchtet Lurchis Abenteuer im Medienverbund aus Produktions- wie Rezeptionsperspektive und legt dabei ein besonderes Augenmerk auf die Sammelbände, die die Einzelhefte unter dem Titel Lurchis Abenteuer zusammenfassen. Methodisch ist dieser Artikel einer comictheoretischen (Narratologie, Multimodalität etc.) sowie literatur- (Lyrikanalyse, Handlungsschemata, Transtextualität) und kulturwissenschaftlichen Ausrichtung (Human-Animal und Gender Studies) bei gleichzeitiger Berücksichtigung der ...

Relationships between Motor and Executive Functions and the Effect of an Acute Coordinative Intervention on Executive Functions in Kindergartners
(2017-05-30)
There is growing evidence indicating positive, causal effects of acute physical activity on cognitive performance of school children, adolescents, and adults. However, only a few studies examined these effects in kindergartners, even though correlational studies suggest moderate relationships between motor and cognitive functions in this age group. One aim of the present study was to examine the correlational relationships between motor and executive functions among 5- to 6-year-olds. Another aim was to test whether ...

The Impact of Visualizing Nested Sets. An Empirical Study on Tree Diagrams and Unit Squares
(2017-01-06)
It is an ongoing debate, what properties of visualizations increase people’s performance when solving Bayesian reasoning tasks. In the discussion of the properties of two visualizations, i.e., the tree diagram and the unit square, we emphasize how both visualizations make relevant subset relations transparent. Actually, the unit square with natural frequencies reveals the subset relation that is essential for the Bayes’ rule in a numerical and geometrical way whereas the tree diagram with natural frequencies does it ...

Structured Eyetracking-based Requirements Validation with the Help of Virtual Prototypes
(INEGI/Faculdade de Engenharia Universidade do Porto, 2017)
Customer requirements form the basis of every product development project. Incomplete requirements and lack of involvement of customers are the main factors for the failure of a product at the buyer's market (Hull et al. 2011). The Quality Function Deployment (QFD) describes a common method for translating customer requirements into product features. For this purpose, the QFD provides various matrices for the prioritization and quantification of the requirements, through the various phases of the product development. ...

Beating the limits with initial correlations
(2017-11-28)
Fast and reliable reset of a qubit is a key prerequisite for any quantum technology. For real world open quantum systems undergoing non-Markovian dynamics, reset implies not only purification, but in particular erasure of initial correlations between qubit and environment. Here, we derive optimal reset protocols using a combination of geometric and numerical control theory. For factorizing initial states, we find a lower limit for the entropy reduction of the qubit as well as a speed limit. The time-optimal solution ...

Fabrication and characterization of ethylene–octene copolymer composites with ionic liquid functionalized carbon nanotubes
(2017-10-16)
Modification of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) by means of imidazolium ionic liquid (IL) was performed. Structural characterization of funtionalized nanofillers (IL-f-MWCNTs) was made by means of Raman spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. MWCNTs and IL-f-MWCNTs were introduced within ethylene octane copolymer (EOC) with octene co-monomer content of 17% by using the masterbatch approach. The efficiency of the carbonaceous nanofiller distribution within the polymer matrix was characterized by means ...

Coinage Metal Complexes of the Carbenic Tautomer of a Conjugated Mesomeric Betaine Akin to Nitron
(2017-07-07)
This study was motivated by our recent observation that the analytical reagent Nitron (2) is an “instant carbene”, whose reaction with coinage metal salts MX afforded complexes of its carbenic tautomer 1,4-diphenyl-3-phenylamino-1,2,4-triazol-5-ylidene (2′). Our aim was to establish an alkyl homologue of 2 in order to achieve a carbenic tautomer of higher donicity. For this purpose 1-tert-butyl-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazol-4-ium-3-tert-butylaminide (6) was synthesized. Its reactions with MX afforded complexes of the carbenic ...

Adoption of Organic Farming as an Opportunity for Syrian Farmers of Fresh Fruit and Vegetables: An Application of the Theory of Planned Behaviour and Structural Equation Modelling
(2017-11-04)
Exporting organic fresh fruit and vegetables (FFV) to the European Union could represent a great opportunity for Syrian farmers and exporters. Yet, the organic sector in Syria is comparatively young and only a very small area of FFV is organically managed. To date, little is known about Syrian farmers’ attitudes towards organic FFV production. Therefore, the aim of this study was to explore the intentions and attitudes of Syrian farmers of FFV towards organic farming and how likely they are to convert their farms to ...

Anforderungsvalidierung unter Nutzung echtzeit simulierter virtueller Prototypen zur Verbesserung der Produktqualität
(FAU University Press, 2017)
Im Rahmen der Anforderungsermittlung werden verschiedene Methoden, wie Befragungs‐ und Beobachtungstechniken eingesetzt, um die bewussten Kundenanforderungen zu erfassen. Verborgene (unbewusste) Kundenanforderungen werden dabei meist nicht berücksichtigt. Aus erhobenen Kundenanforderungen lassen sich z.B. mit einer QFD die späteren Produktmerkmale ableiten. Aufgrund der unscharfen Kundenanforderungslage kommt es bei dem entwickelten Produkt oft zu einer Abweichung von den vom Kunden gewünschten Eigenschaften. Jede ...

Heavy Metals and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Urban Leaf Litter Designated for Combustion
(2017-03-03)
Vast amounts of leaf litter have to be disposed of by city administrations. This biomass has the potential for energy conversion, but contamination with pollutants can adversely affect this usage. We investigated leaf litter samples from the city of Kassel by analyzing their heavy metal and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) concentrations. Leaf samples were indeed contaminated with heavy metals and PAHs and contamination was influenced by provenience and collection technique. A simple cleaning system of washing ...
