Overview: Sozialwissenschaftliche Studie.Includes supplementary material: Anhand von 35 qualitativen Interviews mit jugendlichen Akteuren aus linksaffinen politischen Gruppen untersucht diese Studie, wie sich politisches Engagement im biografischen Verlauf herausbildet, weiterentwickelt und welche prägenden Erfahrungen Jugendliche dabei machen. Darüber hinaus wird erforscht, welches Selbst- und Gesellschaftsverständnis die Jugendlichen vertreten, wie sie zum politischen System stehen, welche Ziele sie verfolgen und mit welchen Aktionsformen sie diese umzusetzen versuchen.978-3-658-08519-3978-3

Overview: Sozialwissenschaftliche Studie.Includes supplementary material: .Christopher Meinecke setzt sich mit der Frage auseinander, inwieweit private Haushalte in einem von erneuerbaren Energiequellen getragenen digitalen Stromnetz (Smart Grid) adaptive Stromverbraucher sein können. Basierend auf einem einjährigen Feldtest mit mehr als 650 Privathaushalten untersucht er unter Anwendung multivariater statistischer Längsschnittverfahren, welche Wirkung Smart Meter-basierte Feedback-Systeme und variable Tarif-Modelle auf ihren Stromverbrauch haben. Darüber hinaus werden die politischen, rechtli

Overview: In order to adapt the properties of living materials to their biological functions, nature has developed unique polyelectrolytes with outstanding physical, chemical and mechanical behavior. Namely polyampholytes can be suitable substances to model protein folding phenomenon and enzymatic activity most of biological macromolecules due to the presence of acidic and basic groups. The ability of linear and crosslinked amphoteric macromolecules to adopt globular, coil, helix and stretched conformations and to demonstrate coil-globule, helix-coil phase transitions, and sol-gel, collapsed­

By highlighting the latest theories and models, as well as cutting-edge technologies and applications, and by combining findings from a range of disciplines including engineering, design, robotics, healthcare, management, compute

Overview: .Location-based applications refer to those that use location data in a prominent manner. Location data can be very effective for service provisioning, enabling the birth of a new generation of information services. Although data security and privacy issues have been extensively investigated in several domains, current techniques are not readily applicable to location-based applications. Conciliating the effectiveness of these applications with privacy concerns constitutes a unique challenge, mostly due to the semantic richness of location and time information. Research in this field

Overview: Examines the legacy of Pseudo-Dionysius and his impact on the development of Christian visual culture.Explores the relation of the Dionysian philosophical system to the materiality and visualization o.This book uses Pseudo-Dionysius and his mystic theology to explore attitudes and beliefs about images in the early medieval West and Byzantium. Composed in the early sixth century, the .Corpus Dionysiacum, .the collection of texts transmitted under the name of Dionysius the Areopagite,. .developed a number of themes which have a predominantly visual and spatial dimension.  Pseudo-Dionys

Overview: Parallel computer architectures are now going to real applications! This fact is demonstrated by the large number of application areas covered in this book (see section on applications of parallel computer architectures). The applications range from image analysis to quantum mechanics and data bases. Still, the use of parallel architectures poses serious problems and requires the development of new techniques and tools. This book is a collection of best papers presented at the first workshop on two major research activities at the Universitiit Erlangen-Niirnberg and Technis­ che Univ

Werden vergleichsweise gut belegte, wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse umfassend der breiten Öffentlichkeit mitgeteilt, oder dringen nur Sensationsmeldungen zu den Lesern vor? Florian Bamberg geht diesen Fragen am Beispiel der Suizidwelle bei der France Télécom nach. Er analysiert Artikel, die über die tagesaktuelle Berichterstattung hinaus die aktuellen Zahlen und Fakten in den Kontext der psychischen Gesundheit am Arbeitsplatz stellen. Seine Ergebnisse bel

Overview: .This book highlights the theoretical foundations of and experimental techniques in photothermal heating and applications involving nanoscale heat generation using gold nanostructures embedded in various media. The experimental techniques presented involve a combination of nanothermometers doped with rare-earth atoms, plasmonic heaters and near-field microscopy. The theoretical foundations are based on the Maxwell’s and heat diffusion equations. In particular, the working principle and application of AlGaN:Er3+ film, Er2O3 nanoparticles and β-NaYF4:Yb3+,Er3+ nanocrystals for nanother

Overview: The humoral response of the immune system to a foreign antigen usually requires the recognition of two antigenic determinants. The one, called the carrier, is recognized by T-Iymphocytes, the other, called the hapten, by B-Iympho­ cytes. As a consequence, T - and B-Iymphocytes proliferate, B-Iymphocytes produce hapten-specific antibodies, and the system develops memory to the antigens. It was long thought that antigens would form a bridge to mediate the cooperation of T - and B-Iymphocytes. However, it now appears that antigens are broken down to fragments which then act as carrier d
