We perform both classical molecular dynamics simulations and beam model calculations to investigate the Young's modulus of kinked silicon nanowires (KSiNWs). The Young's modulus is found to be highly sensitive to the arm length of the kink and is essentially inversely proportional to the arm length. The mechanism underlying the size dependence is found to be the interplay between the kink angle potential and the arm length potential, where we obtain an analytic relationship between the Young's modulus and the arm length of the KSiNW. Our results provide insight into the application of this novel building block in nanomechanical devices.
Das Bauwesen hat sich in den letzten Jahren durch die Globalisierung des Marktes verbunden mit einer verstärkten Nutzung moderner Technologien stark gewandelt. Die Planung und die Durchführung von Bauvorhaben werden zunehmend komplexer und sind mit erhöhten Risiken verbunden. Geld- und Zeitressourcen werden bei einem immer härter werdenden Konkurrenzkampf knapper.
Das Projektmanagement stellt Lösungsansätze bereit, um Bauvorhaben auch unter erschwerten Bedingungen und erhöhten Risiken erfolgreich zum Abschluss zu bringen. Dabei hat ein systematisches Risikomanagement beginnend bei der Projektentwicklung bis zum Projektabschluss eine für den Projekterfolg entscheidende Bedeutung.
Ziel der Arbeit ist es, eine quantitative Risikoerfassung für Projektmanager als professionelle Bauherrenvertretung und die Simulation der Risikoauswirkungen auf den Verlauf eines Projektes während der Planungs- und Bauphase zu ermöglichen. Mit Hilfe eines abstrakten Modells soll eine differenzierte, praxisnahe Simulation durchführbar sein, die die verschiedenen Arten der Leistungs- und Kostenentstehung widerspiegelt. Parallel dazu soll die Beschreibung von Risiken so abstrahiert werden, dass beliebige Risiken quantitativ erfassbar und anschließend ihre Auswirkungen inklusive mögliche Gegenmaßnahmen in das Modell integrierbar sind.
Anhand zweier Beispiele werden die unterschiedlichen Einsatzmöglichkeiten der quantitativen Erfassung von Projektrisiken und der anschließenden Simulation ihrer Auswirkungen aufgezeigt. Bei dem ersten Beispiel, einem realen, bereits abgeschlossenen Schieneninfrastrukturprojekt, wird die Wirksamkeit einer vorbeugenden Maßnahme gegen ein Projektrisiko untersucht. Im zweiten Beispiel wird ein Planspielansatz zur praxisnahen Aus- und Weiterbildung von Projektmanagern entwickelt. Inhalt des Planspiels ist die Planung und Errichtung eines privatfinanzierten, öffentlichen Repräsentationsbaus mit teilweiser Fremdnutzung.
A more careful consideration of food waste is needed for planning the urban environment. The research signals links between the organization of individuals, the built environment and food waste management through a study conducted in Mexico. It recognizes the different scales within which solid waste management operates, explores food waste production at household levels, and investigates the urban circumstances that influence its management. This is based on the idea that sustainable food waste management in cities requires a constellation of processes through which a ‘people centered’ approach offers added value to technical and biological facts. This distinction addresses how urban systems react to waste and what behavioral and structural factors affect current sanitary practices in Mexico. Food waste is a resource-demanding item, which makes for a considerable amount of refuse being disposed of in landfills in developing cities. The existing data shortage on waste generation at household levels debilitates implementation strategies and there is a need for more contextual knowledge associated with waste. The evidence-based study includes an explorative phase on the culture of waste management and a more in-depth examination of domestic waste composition. Mixed data collection tools including a household based survey, a food waste diary and weighing recording system were developed to enquire into the daily practices of waste disposal in households. The contrasting urban environment of Mexico City Metropolitan Area holds indistinctive boundaries between the core and the periphery, which hinder the implementation of integrated environmental plans. External determinants are different modes of urban transformation and internal determinants are building features and their consolidation processes. At the household level, less and more affluents groups responded differently to external environmental stressors. A targeted planning proposition is required for each group. Local alternative waste management is more likely to be implement in less affluent contexts. Further, more effective demand-driven service delivery implies better integration between the formal and informal sectors. The results show that efforts toward securing long-term changes in Mexico and other cities with similar circumstances require creating synergy between education, building consolidation, local infrastructure and social engagement.
Occupant needs with regard to residential buildings are not well known due to a lack of representative scientific studies. To improve the lack of data, a large scale study was carried out using a Post Occupancy Evaluation of 1,416 building occupants. Several criteria describing the needs of occupants were evaluated with regard to their subjective level of relevance. Additionally, we investigated the degree to which deficiencies subjectively exist, and the degree to which occupants were able to accept them. From the data obtained, a hierarchy of criteria was created. It was found that building occupants ranked the physiological needs of air quality and thermal comfort the highest. Health hazards such as mould and contaminated building materials were unacceptable for occupants, while other deficiencies were more likely to be tolerated. Occupant satisfaction was also investigated. We found that most occupants can be classified as satisfied, although some differences do exist between different populations. To explain the relationship between the constructs of what we call relevance, acceptance, deficiency and satisfaction, we then created an explanatory model. Using correlation and regression analysis, the validity of the model was then confirmed by applying the collected data. The results of the study are both relevant in shaping further research and in providing guidance on how to maximize tenant satisfaction in real estate management.
