Predictive Simulation-based Optimisation of Cooling System Including a Sprinkler Tank
(2018)
Prerequisite for an efficient cooling energy system is the knowledge and the optimal combination of different operating conditions of individual compression and free cooling chillers. The performance of cooling systems depends on its part load performance and its condensing temperature, which are often unknown. Recorded energy data remains unused and manufacturers' data significantly differs from the real performance. For this purpose, manufacturer and real data are combined and continuously adapted to form partial ...

‚Ausstellungsmaschinen‘
(2018)
Nach dem Ende des Zweiten Weltkrieges war die europäische Museumslandschaft ein Trümmerhaufen. Die Museumsgebäude, die seit Kriegsbeginn geschlossen gewesen waren, waren schwer beschädigt und bestenfalls teilweise nutzbar, wenn sie nicht zum Opfer einer vollständigen Zerstörung geworden waren. Die kriegsbedingt ausgelagerten Sammlungen mussten zunächst zusammengetragen und in die allmählich wiederhergestellten Gebäude zurückgeführt werden. Obwohl es aufgrund des Kriegsverlaufes erhebliche nationale und regionale ...

Name-informing and distancing sogenannt ‘so-called’: Name mentioning and the lexicon-pragmatics interface
(2018)
This paper aims at a unified analysis of the different interpretations which constructions involving the German name-mentioning modifier soge-nannt‘so-called’ can adopt. In contrast to nouns like Sepsis‘sepsis’, a noun like Hotel ‘hotel’, as insogenanntes Hotel, gives rise to a “distanced” interpretation of the construction rather than one informing about a concept’s name. After a thorough investigation of the lexical-semantic properties, we propose the reading of the construction to emerge from an interplay between ...

Africa’s future: Demarginalizing urban agriculture in the era of climate change
(Section Specialized Partnerships in Sustainable Food Systems and Food Sovereignty at the University of Kassel, Germany and Federation of German Scientists (VDW), 2018-06-05)
Africans are migrating to cities. With the continent’s cities projected to double in population by 2050, the issue of food insecurity in urban areas is increasingly becoming a major concern. To sustain this urban explosion, the question of how to maintain constant food supply to urban residents remains an urgent priority since these locations do not always get access to adequate food. There has, however, been little work on examining urban agriculture (UA) as an alternative means of reducing hunger in Africa, especially ...

Gott erzählen in biblischen Schriften des Alten Testaments
(2018)
In the Bible, God is one of many characters who is subject to the same principles of narrative modelling as the others. At the same time, however, God differs from other characters with regard to his transtextual attendance and the authority of his voice, which in turn influences the authority of the narrator’s voice. Biblical prophecy is conceptualized as a mediating voice between God and humans. In the narrative world, prophecy plays an important role in providing access to an otherwise inaccessible God. Moses, as ...

However, TML providers still struggle in identifying areas for improvement in their TML offerings. One reason for their struggles is inconsistencies in the literature regarding drivers of TML performance. Prior research suggests that these inconsistencies in TML literature might stem from neglecting the importance of considering the process perspective in ...
