The central focus of the paper is to demonstrate that the neoliberalism hasn't succeeded just because it is an economic strategy which better serves the interests of the capitalist class (though it must be stressed that this fact has obviously contributed) but mainly because it has been promoted as an attractive economic strategy by respected, well organized and transnationalized institutions all around the globe, and understand the reasons behind this institutional support. After reviewing the interrelationships between the Bretton-Woods institutions and their relationship with the concepts of neoliberalism and sustainable development, the paper concludes claiming that the so-called neoliberal ideology operates behind the discourses of growth, progress and sustainability and that it is in charge of softening domination by diffusing legitimating ideas and granting concessions to subordinate forces, thus implying significations and values that transcend the possible manipulation of the world as an object.}, subject = {Neoliberalismus}, language = {en} } @article{Stratmann, author = {Stratmann, Bernhard}, title = {Wissenschaft, Forschung und Forschungsprozess - Eine Einf{\"u}hrung}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.1849}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20130212-18498}, pages = {1 -- 33}, abstract = {Der Artikel behandelt f{\"u}nf f{\"u}r das wissenschaftliche Arbeiten besonders relevante Themenfelder: 1) Ziele und Gegenstand wissenschaftlichen Arbeitens, 2) der Zusammenhang von Wissenschaft, Erkenntnis und Fortschritt, 3) eine Darstellung der Forschungslandschaft in Deutschland unter Ber{\"u}cksichtigung der Wissenschaftsorganisation, 4) eine ausf{\"u}hrliche, praxisorientierte Erl{\"a}uterung des typischen Ablaufs eines Forschungsprozesses, 5) eine Skizze zur literaturbasierten Forschung.

Recent Mars observations as well as laboratory investigations suggest that water is a key factor of current physical and chemical processes on the Martian surface, e.g. rheological phenomena. Therefore it is of particular interest to get information about the liquid-like state of water on Martian analogue soils for temperatures below 0 °C. To this end, a parallel plate capacitor has been developed to obtain isothermal dielectric spectra of fine-grained soils in the frequency range from 10 Hz to 1.1 MHz at Martian-like temperatures down to -70 °C. Two Martian analogue soils have been investigated: a Ca-bentonite (specific surface of 237 m2 g-1, up to 9.4\% w / w gravimetric water content) and JSC Mars 1, a volcanic ash (specific surface of 146 m2 g-1, up to 7.4\% w / w). Three soil-specific relaxation processes are observed in the investigated frequency-temperature range: two weak high-frequency processes (bound or hydrated water as well as ice) and a strong low-frequency process due to counter-ion relaxation and the Maxwell-Wagner effect. To characterize the dielectric relaxation behaviour, a generalized fractional dielectric relaxation model was applied assuming three active relaxation processes with relaxation time of the ith process modelled with an Eyring equation. The real part of effective complex soil permittivity at 350 kHz was used to determine ice and liquid-like water content by means of the Birchak or CRIM equation. There are evidence that bentonite down to -70 °C has a liquid-like water content of 1.17 monolayers and JSC Mars 1 a liquid-like water content of 1.96 monolayers.}, subject = {Wasser}, language = {en} } @article{VoelkerBeckmannKoehlmannetal., author = {V{\"o}lker, Conrad and Beckmann, Julia and Koehlmann, Sandra and Kornadt, Oliver}, title = {Occupant requirements in residential buildings - an empirical study and a theoretical model}, series = {Advances in Building Energy Research}, journal = {Advances in Building Energy Research}, number = {7 (1)}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.3813}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20181015-38137}, pages = {35 -- 50}, abstract = {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.}, subject = {Post Occupancy Evaluation}, language = {en} } @article{KnabeDatchevaLahmeretal., author = {Knabe, Tina and Datcheva, Maria and Lahmer, Tom and Cotecchia, F. and Schanz, Tom}, title = {Identification of constitutive parameters of soil using an optimization strategy and statistical analysis}, series = {Computers and Geotechnics}, journal = {Computers and Geotechnics}, pages = {143 -- 157}, abstract = {Identification of constitutive parameters of soil using an optimization strategy and statistical analysis}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{AreiasRabczuk, author = {Areias, Pedro and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {Finite strain fracture of plates and shells with configurational forces and edge rotation}, series = {International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering}, journal = {International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering}, abstract = {Finite strain fracture of plates and shells with configurational forces and edge rotation}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{BanihaniRabczukAlmomani, author = {Banihani, Suleiman and Rabczuk, Timon and Almomani, Thakir}, title = {POD for real-time simulation of hyperelastic soft biological tissue using the point collocation method of finite spheres}, series = {Mathematical Problems in Engineering}, journal = {Mathematical Problems in Engineering}, doi = {10.1155/2013/386501}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20170413-31203}, abstract = {The point collocation method of finite spheres (PCMFS) is used to model the hyperelastic response of soft biological tissue in real time within the framework of virtual surgery simulation. The proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) model order reduction (MOR) technique was used to achieve reduced-order model of the problem, minimizing computational cost. The PCMFS is a physics-based meshfree numerical technique for real-time simulation of surgical procedures where the approximation functions are applied directly on the strong form of the boundary value problem without the need for integration, increasing computational efficiency. Since computational speed has a significant role in simulation of surgical procedures, the proposed technique was able to model realistic nonlinear behavior of organs in real time. Numerical results are shown to demonstrate the effectiveness of the new methodology through a comparison between full and reduced analyses for several nonlinear problems. It is shown that the proposed technique was able to achieve good agreement with the full model; moreover, the computational and data storage costs were significantly reduced.}, subject = {Chirurgie}, language = {en} } @article{NanthakumarLahmerRabczuk, author = {Nanthakumar, S.S. and Lahmer, Tom and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {Detection of flaws in piezoelectric structures using extended FEM}, series = {International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering}, journal = {International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering}, pages = {373 -- 389}, abstract = {Detection of flaws in piezoelectric structures using extended FEM}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{ZhaoWeiFanetal., author = {Zhao, Jun-Hua and Wei, Ning and Fan, Z. and Jiang, Jin-Wu and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {Mechanical properties of three types of carbon allotropes}, series = {Nanotechnology}, journal = {Nanotechnology}, abstract = {Mechanical properties of three types of carbon allotropes}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{PhanDaoNguyenXuanThaiHoangetal., author = {Phan-Dao, H. and Nguyen-Xuan, Hung and Thai-Hoang, C. and Nguyen-Thoi, T. and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {An edge-based smoothed finite element method for analysis of laminated composite plates}, series = {International Journal of Computational Methods}, journal = {International Journal of Computational Methods}, abstract = {An edge-based smoothed finite element method for analysis of laminated composite plates}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} }
