David. Die Samuelbücher (Teil 2)
(2017)
Von keiner anderen Figur des Alten Testaments erfahren wir so vieles - und so unterschiedliches - wie von König David. Auch die Lebensgeschichte des Mose nimmt breiten Raum ein - schließlich kann die gesamte Tora als Biographie dieses größten Propheten Israels gelesen werden. David aber erhält mehr Nuancen, mehr Farbe, mehr Gestalt. Die Erzählungen der Samuelbücher zeigen ihn als schillernde Figur: Musiker, Krieger, Verräter, König, Liebhaber, Vater - die Reihe ließe sich noch eine Weile fortsetzen. David erscheint ...

Process and utility systems integration and optimisation for ultra-low energy milk powder production
(2017-04-26)
This study applies a Total Site Heat Integration approach in conjunction with a detailed process and utility model, to develop an innovative ultra-low energy milk powder plant design. The basis for the analysis is a state-of-the-art modern milk powder plant that requires 5265 MJ/tp of fuel and 210.5 kWh/tp (58.5 MJe/tp) of electricity. The model of the modern milk powder plant was validated against industrial data and changes to process and/or utility systems are targeted and implemented into the model to understand ...

Behindertenbewegung/en, Menschenrechte und die UN-Behindertenrechtskonvention
(2017)
Zumindest in sozial- und behindertenpädagogischen Kreisen hat sich inzwischen herumgesprochen, dass es die UN-Behindertenrechtskonvention (UN-BRK), die die allgemeinen Menschenrechte für die Lebenslage Behinderung nachdrücklich „durchdekliniert“, gibt. Einige der Genannten werden auch wissen, dass es seit den 1970er Jahren in (West-)Deutschland eine Behindertenbewegung gibt, die für die gesellschaftliche Anerkennung und rechtliche Gleichstellung behinderter Menschen kämpft/e. Den wenigsten dürfte jedoch bewusst sein, ...

Let’s twist again! Embodiment effects in spatial judgments on human figures rotated along a vertical axis
(2017)
We investigated whether individuals used mental rotation and embodiment for arm laterality judgments of human figures that were stepwise rotated from back view to front view along a vertical axis. In Experiment 1, figures’ heads were always shown in profile, while only the bodies were rotated. Judgments were faster and more correct when figures were presented in back view compared to front view, but the relation between reaction times (RTs) and rotation angles was not strictly linear. In addition, judgments on figures ...

Time-of-Flight Three Dimensional Neutron Diffraction in Transmission Mode for Mapping Crystal Grain Structures
(2017-08-25)
The physical properties of polycrystalline materials depend on their microstructure, which is the nano- to centimeter scale arrangement of phases and defects in their interior. Such microstructure depends on the shape, crystallographic phase and orientation, and interfacing of the grains constituting the material. This article presents a new non-destructive 3D technique to study centimeter-sized bulk samples with a spatial resolution of hundred micrometers: time-of-flight three-dimensional neutron diffraction (ToF ...

Role of Pseudouridine Formation by Deg1 for Functionality of Two Glutamine Isoacceptor tRNAs
(2017-01-26)
Loss of Deg1/Pus3 and concomitant elimination of pseudouridine in tRNA at positions 38 and 39 (ψ38/39) was shown to specifically impair the function of tRNAGlnUUG under conditions of temperature-induced down-regulation of wobble uridine thiolation in budding yeast and is linked to intellectual disability in humans. To further characterize the differential importance of the frequent ψ38/39 modification for tRNAs in yeast, we analyzed the in vivo function of non-sense suppressor tRNAs SUP4 and sup70-65 in the absence ...

Assessment of probabilistic distributed factors influencing renewable energy supply for hotels using Monte-Carlo methods
(2017-04-05)
This paper investigates the use of renewable energies to supply hotels in island regions. The aim is to evaluate the effect of weather and occupancy fluctuations on the sensitivity of investment criteria. The sensitivity of the chosen energy system is examined using a Monte Carlo simulation considering stochastic weather data, occupancy rates and energy needs. For this purpose, algorithms based on measured data are developed and applied to a case study on the Canary Islands.
The results underline that electricity ...

Output 5 ― Evaluation-Tool
(2017)
Purpose – The purpose of this report is to study the success of short-term intensive study programmes (ISPs) over the short-term perspective and highlight additional lessons for students which might be missed without the experience of working face-to-face on sophisticated tasks in multicultural teams.
Approach/ Methodology – The evaluation of our ISPs was conducted using a quantitative methodology, via questionnaires given to students at the beginning, the middle and at the end of a course. The questionnaire development ...
