Managing Risk, Performance and Sustainability in Textile & Apparel Supply Chains.
(2023)
The thesis at hand analyzes sustainability prerequisites, practices, risk and performance in textile and apparel (T&A) supply chains (SCs). Given the growing awareness of sustainability risks by various stakeholders, T&A firms are required to implement and adapt sustainability practices along their SCs, while at the same time measuring their performance to counteract the (re)emergence of risks. Appropriate management strategies are therefore needed to ensure sustainable transformation in T&A SCs. While the state of ...

Land tenure in a changing climate
(2023)
Climate change and extreme weather have far-reaching impacts on agriculture. They do not only affect agricultural production, but also fundamental assets that shape agricultural livelihoods. In this dissertation, I study the relation of weather and climate with agricultural land tenure in low- and middle-income countries. Secure access to land is of vital importance for farmers, but insecure tenure is a reality for millions of farmers around the globe. They are unsure whether they will be able to continue farming ...

Neo-institutionalism and business sustainability in emerging economies
(2022)
This dissertation deals with the institutional environment surrounding the private sector in the various emerging markets and developing economies (EMDEs) worldwide where most of the global population lives. Its primary purpose is to identify and combine theoretical aspects of new (sociological) institutionalism/neo-institutionalism to better understand the role of institutional environments in shaping business impacts on sustainable development. Institutions shape the behaviour of individuals as well as entire groups ...

Darstellung, Eigenschaften und Reaktivität phosphorreicher Ferrocenophane
(2022-05)
Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wurde ein präparativer Zugang zu phosphorreichen Ferrocenophanen entwickelt, die Substituenten mit variierenden sterischen und elektronischen Eigenschaften tra-gen und die Reaktivität dieser gegenüber Elektrophilen untersucht.
Die Reaktivitätsuntersuchungen des als Modellverbindung ausgewählten Diphospha-[2]fer-rocenophans L6a gegenüber Elektrophilen haben gezeigt, dass sowohl ein als auch beide Phos-phoratome selektiv, durch stöchiometrische Kontrolle mit Monoboran oder unterschiedlichen ...

The Representation of Motion Events
(2022)
The thesis at hand approaches the conceptualization of motion events from a theoretical point of view as well as on the basis of a corpus study and two experimental designs. The research focuses on the investigation of different factors determining the conceptualization and verbalization of motion events by examining both cognitive variables and grammatical factors.

Industry 4.0-driven additive manufacturing for operations in the circular economy
(2023-06)
This dissertation focuses on exploring how key elements of Industry 4.0 (I4.0), such as additive manufacturing (AM) and quantitative techniques/simulation, instigate the operations of an organisation towards the circular economy (CE). AM represents the technological foundation of future manufacturing which efficiently utilises materials avoiding unnecessary waste. Further, it could positively impact the transition towards CE by addressing issues related to the operations and supply chains while positively influencing ...

Managing Collaboration in Circular Supply Chains
(2023-05)
The dissertation focuses on understanding the application of the circular economy (CE) concept to the supply chain management (SCM) domain as ‘circular supply chains’ (CSCs) and the role of collaboration in this application. While CE is an emerging approach for sustainable production and consumption, its application in the SCM domain as CSCs could assist in improving the overall sustainable performance. Collaboration with internal and external partners is crucial to achieve this improvement. Hence, with the aim to ...

Herausforderungen bei der Analyse von Unterrichtsqualität und deren Wirkungen auf Lernende
(2023-07)
Die empirische Unterrichtsforschung stellt Forschende vor zahlreiche Herausforderungen. Eine besondere Herausforderung besteht darin, dass wissenschaftliche Ergebnisse in hohem Maße von den Entscheidungen der Forschenden im Forschungsprozess abhängen – ein informiertes Vorgehen ist für jeden Schritt guter wissenschaftlicher Forschung fundamental. Ziel der kumulativen Dissertation ist es daher, aus einer Metaperspektive theoretisch-konzeptionelle Grundlagen und forschungsmethodische Fragen der Unterrichtsforschung zu ...

Beam powder bed fusion for direct microstructure design – In-depth analysis of prospects and limitations of the multi spot scanning strategy
(2023)
The electron beam powder bed fusion process generally results in a strong 〈001〉 texture alongside the build direction for Inconel 718. This is a result of prevailing high thermal gradients between the melted surface and the solid material. However, based on specific beam movement patterns, the solidification behaviour can be altered towards an equiaxed, isotropic microstructure. The present study focuses on the “multi spot scanning” strategy directly provided by the machine manufacturer. The operation mode of the ...

Parameter recommendation for injection molding based on similarity analysis of injection molded parts
(2023)
Injection molding is a widespread manufacturing process for producing complex plastic shapes. The process is controlled by a large number of parameters, which show interactions with each other. Thereby the determination of an optimal operating point during sampling is a resource-consuming and demanding task. The data, which is generated during sampling, is usually not used for subsequent sampling processes. In the context of Industry 4.0, manufacturing companies attempt to optimize production efficiency to save time ...
