Der Trend zu leichteren Konstruktionen und größeren Spannweiten macht es notwendig, den dynamischen Charakter der Einwirkungen auf die Tragsicherheit und Gebrauchstauglichkeit der Bauwerke stärker als bisher zu berücksichtigen; neben aerodynamischen und seismischen Einflüssen sind es solche aus Maschinenanlagen, aus dem Straßen- und Eisenbahnverkehr sowie von Menschen induzierte Einwirkungen, und nicht zuletzt Katastrophenlastfälle, wie Anprall, Flugzeugabsturz und anderes.
Ausgehend von den Grundlagen der Dynamik werden Berechnungs- und Bewertungsverfahren unterschiedlicher Strenge dargestellt und anhand zahlreicher Beispiele praxisbezogen erläutert. Die mathematischen Verfahren werden in einem ausführlichen Anhang dargelegt, die einzelnen Kapitel sind jeweils durch umfangreiche Hinweise auf die Fachliteratur ergänzt.
Marketingrecht
(2018)
Dieses Buch legt eine umfassende Gesamtdarstellung des Marketingrechts vor und sensibilisiert für mögliche Rechtsprobleme im Marketing. Verantwortliche im Marketingmanagement, die Entscheidungen oft auch schnell treffen müssen, werden hier mit den Grundlagen rechtlicher Rahmenbedingungen vertraut gemacht. Der marketingspezifische Aufbau und die Entscheidungsorientierung gewährleisten dem Marketingmanagement als Hauptzielgruppe einen hohen Praxisnutzen. Der Leser erhält wertvolle Hinweise, wie er im Marketing effektiver und zielgerichteter mit der Rechtsabteilung oder externen Rechtsberatern kommunizieren kann.
According to the World Food Organization, nearly half of all root and tuber crops worldwide are not consumed, but are lost due to inappropriate storage and post-harvest losses. In developing countries such as Ethiopia, potatoes have not been dried, but are traditionally stored in potato clamps. So far, dried potatoes have not been converted into usable foods.
The aim of the present work is to convert potatoes - perishable rootlets and tubers - into stable products by hot air drying. Hot air dryers are economical to operate in industrialized countries. In Africa, this is reserved for larger industrial companies only. In regions with a tropical climate, however, the use of solar tunnel dryers is worthwhile. These are a good choice for farming and small industries and wherever electrical energy is difficult or impossible to obtain.
In a first part of the work, the drying process of potatoes was investigated, in particular with regard to the change of thermal, mechanical and chemical quality parameters. In an evaluation of the literature it was found that potatoes are not subject to quality changes if the water activityis below a value of 0.2. In order to determine the water content associated with this value at storage temperature, the known equations for the sorption equilibrium were evaluated and verified with own experimental investigations. This determined the end point of the drying process.
The following experimental investigations showed a process-dependent change of the quality criteria such as color, shrinkage, and mechanical properties as well as the content of valuedetermining substances such as vitamin C and starch. The differences in the course and magnitude of the quality changes were attributed to the glass transition that takes place during the drying process. For the determination of the glass transition temperature a new, simple method based on the measurement of mechanical properties could be developed. The knowledge of the glass transition temperature allowed optimizing the drying process. The drying process could be carried out in the rubbery or glassy region, depending on the expected quality changes. Thus, all information was available to produce high quality dried potatoes in an industrial process.
Since the production of potato products in less industrialized regions without sufficient supply of electrical energy should be included, potatoes were dried with a solar tunnel dryer. Examination of the quality properties mentioned above confirmed the process-dependent quality changes.
Finally, the dried product was ground and with the flour thus produced, wheat flour was replaced for baking bread. An evaluation of the finished bread by a panel showed that the acceptance of the bread according to the new recipe was high, also with regard to baking volume, taste, texture and color.
This work shows that by drying potatoes can be transformed a well accepted, storable and easily transportable product. The risk of losses or degradation is minimized. It can be produced on an industrial as well as on farm level. If the influence of the glass transition is taken into account, it is possible to optimize the quality of the product.
Energiewirtschaft und Wassernutzung stehen aufgrund der großen Bedeutung von Kohle-, Kern-, und Wasserkraftwerken in Baden-Württemberg in einem engen Zusammenhang. Niedrige Flusswasserstände können in Trockenzeiten zu Konflikten zwischen den verschiedenen Wassernutzern z.B. der Kühlwassernutzung (Abbildung 1), Bewässerung sowie der Nutzung des Neckars als Schifffahrtsstraße führen. Seit dem Trockensommer 2003 nimmt das Bewusstsein für die Relevanz konkurrierender Wassernutzungen, u.a. von Kühlwassernutzung, Bewässerung für die Landwirtschaft, Nutzung der Wasserwege für den Transport von Massengütern sowie für Belange des Naturschutz zu.
Stress is becoming an important topic in modern life. The influence of stress results in a higher rate of health disorders such as burnout, heart problems, obesity, asthma, diabetes, depressions and many others. Furthermore individual’s behavior and capabilities could be directly affected leading to altered cognition, inappropriate decision making and problem solving skills. In a dynamic and unpredictable environment, such as automotive, this can result in a higher risk for accidents. Different papers faced the estimation as well as prediction of drivers’ stress level during driving. Another important question is not only the stress level of the driver himself, but also the influence on and of a group of other drivers in the near area. This paper proposes a system, which determines a group of drivers in a near area as clusters and it derives the individual stress level. This information will be analyzed to generate a stress map, which represents a graphical view about road section with a higher stress influence. Aggregated data can be used to generate navigation routes with a lower stress influence to decrease stress influenced driving as well as improve road safety.
Sleep is an important aspect in life of every human being. The average sleep duration for an adult is approximately 7 h per day. Sleep is necessary to regenerate physical and psychological state of a human. A bad sleep quality has a major impact on the health status and can lead to different diseases. In this paper an approach will be presented, which uses a long-term monitoring of vital data gathered by a body sensor during the day and the night supported by mobile application connected to an analyzing system, to estimate sleep quality of its user as well as give recommendations to improve it in real-time. Actimetry and historical data will be used to improve the individual recommendations, based on common techniques used in the area of machine learning and big data analysis.
