In order to do so an attempt to define the currently still vague notion of "shrinking city" was made. The urban development of Eastern Germany was thoroughly examined both in a short term perspective and in a wide historical as well as international context, with the Polish urban development used as reference. 25 cities (kreisfreie St{\"a}dte) in Eastern Germany and depopulating Polish cities: Ł{\´o}d{\'{z}} and the Metropolis Silesia were chosen as case studies. On the basis of the gathered information a "shrinking city" in Eastern Germany was defined as a city with a long-lasting population decrease coupled with over-dimensioned, growth-oriented development policies carried out for decades. Such a development path is triggering negative consequences in the spatial, economic and also demographic dimension, which tend to intensify each other. The thesis postulates that the definition of the "shrinking city in Eastern Germany" is not appropriate to depopulating cities in Poland. Polish cities are characterized by a short-lasting population decrease and this trend is not triggering negative spatial and economic consequences. Oversized growth development policies were never present in the cities and they still suffer from great deficiencies in housing and other basic infrastructure, which derive from the socialist period. Furthermore, radical de-economization, known from Eastern German cities, did not occur in the Polish cities. Both Ł{\´o}d{\'{z}} and the Metropolis Silesia remain main production centers of the country. This doctoral thesis presents a contradictory view to contemporary publications on "shrinking cities", in which this phenomenon is regarded as having occurred suddenly after the collapse of the socialism. It proved that "shrinking cities" in Eastern Germany are not the outcome of short-lasting processes, but are deeply rooted in the past. Moreover, they represent a very distinct development pattern that highly differentiates from the one found in Central Eastern Europe and the one in Western Europe. In this way the doctoral thesis provided a new, critical approach to the discourse on "shrinking cities" in Germany. It also draws attention to the importance of the historical analysis in cities' development research, particularly in cross border studies. In time of European integration peculiarities resulting from centuries of different spatial, economic and social development paths should not be underestimated.}, subject = {Stadtplanung}, 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.

In approaching this subject, two major questions are raised: what was the role of ancient Chinese rural clans in the spatial formation of their settlements and, nowadays, do they still play the same role as before? To approach these answers, this dissertation sets out to draw on systematically interdisciplinary research from the perspectives of socio-culture and architecture- planning to have an overall understanding of a Chinese clan organization and clan settlement. Then, the basic characteristics of traditional Chinese clans and their importance to the Chinese people are discussed by tracing the history and evolution of Chinese clan organizations in the dissertation. Two old villages, Furong and Cangpo in now Wenzhou, Zhejiang Province, are selected for case study research. And the research reveals that it was the clans that took charge of planning and managing the various construction activities, especially those of communal buildings and facilities, within their own settlements, and the clan lives exerted a decisive impact on shaping the settlement spaces, branding the characteristics of the clan lives clearly and deeply on the spaces. Following that, in the dissertation is described the transformation process of traditional Chinese clans in modern and contemporary China. The clan lives in rural areas have been reshaped and this exerts a great impact on clan settlement spaces.

The process of the Post Conflict Development is to be very hard to investigate, primarily for the combination of socio-cultural phenomena, war and political instability; having difficulties of conducting solid empirical analysis (obtaining reliable data) and dealing with war-torn communities. The multifaceted process of the reconstruction is ought to touch a lot of countries vital segments, whereas each of them requires different approach; coordination with one another; and unification in their common aim. The emergency of the assistance programs are not equal, same as with the priority and weight when compared with each other, therefore occasionally there are programs for the success of which the other less important actions are violated or neglected. The case is with the International Community presence ( the set up), which aside from their mission and projects, it is considered to play a very important role on the urban development of a post conflict city; the setting was never planned or considered in a holistic manner, therefore IC establishment was done ad hoc and it was guided by issues which did not help at its greatest to the urban development of the city and more over to the citizens who were most in need. The study is about the Urban Development, due to the fact that the biggest concentration of the International Community is likely to be in the urban centers, and the experienced changes are of a much considerable magnitude. The reconstruction phase is likely to be lasting at about 10 years and more , consequently the International Community for that time being tends to be recognized as temporary citizens of the city, and it is inevitably that they will be having an impact on the urban development of the city; in that basis it is considered to be significant that the International Community Establishment/Set Up be included into the International Organizations mission and assist in the overall mission of the reconstruction.}, subject = {Stadtplanung}, language = {en} } @article{LorekWagner, author = {Lorek, Andreas and Wagner, Norbert}, title = {Supercooled interfacial water in fine-grained soils probed by dielectric spectroscopy}, series = {Cryosphere}, journal = {Cryosphere}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.3149}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20170425-31490}, pages = {1839 -- 1855}, abstract = {Water substantially affects nearly all physical, chemical and biological processes on the Earth.

Ziel der Arbeit war die Kl{\"a}rung, wie eine unterschiedliche Kationenbelegung mit Cu2+ und NH4+ die Eigenschaften der Bentonite bei Raumtemperatur und nach moderater W{\"a}rmebehandlung (300 - 450°C) beeinflusst. Im Blickpunkt stand insbesondere die gleichzeitige Pr{\"a}senz von Kupfer- und Ammoniumionen, die als Vertreter f{\"u}r h{\"a}ufig auftretende Inhaltsstoffe von W{\"a}ssern in der Umgebung von technischen Bentoniten ausgew{\"a}hlt wurden. Die Untersuchungen zur Cu2+-Sorption bei Raumtemperatur und nach moderater W{\"a}rmebehandlung (300 - 450°C) erfolgten an Pulverproben von zwei technischen Bentoniten, die sich in der urspr{\"u}nglichen Kationenbelegung, Art und Anteil an Nebengemengteilen, sowie der Schichtladungsverteilung in den Montmorilloniten unterscheiden. Vor der W{\"a}rmebehandlung wurden die Bentonite durch Kontakt mit verschieden konzentrierten Kupfer- und Ammoniuml{\"o}sungen mit unterschiedlichen Gehalten der Kationen Cu2+, NH4+, Na+, Ca2+, Mg2+ belegt. Der Eintrag von Kupferionen in die Bentonite durch Kationenaustausch bei Raumtemperatur wurde erwartungsgem{\"a}ß durch pr{\"a}sente Nebengemengteile (wie Carbonat) beeinflusst, so dass die Kupferionen zus{\"a}tzlich spezifisch adsorbiert und in festen Phasen angereichert wurden. Die Cu2+-Fixierung infolge der W{\"a}rmebehandlung wurde vom Cu2+-Totalgehalt in den Bentoniten, der Pr{\"a}senz von Nebengemengteilen und die Schichtladungsverteilung in den Montmorilloniten beeinflusst. Es waren generell Behandlungstemperaturen von > 400°C erforderlich, um Cu2+-Fixierungsraten von > 95\% zu erzielen. Waren w{\"a}hrend der W{\"a}rmebehandlung neben Cu2+-Ionen gleichzeitig NH4+-Ionen in den Bentoniten pr{\"a}sent, konnte die Cu2+-Fixierungstemperatur herabgesetzt werden. Die Deammonisierung (NH4+ --> NH3 + H+) der NH4+-belegten Bentonite fand gr{\"o}ßtenteils unterhalb der Dehydroxylierungstemperatur der Bentonite statt. Durch Untersuchungen (XRD, FTIR, NMR, ESR) zum Mechanismus der Cu2+-Einbindung in die Bentonite an speziell aufbereiteten Proben (carbonatfrei, < 2 µm) konnte nachgewiesen werden, dass in den Cu2+-belegten Montmorilloniten die Cu2+-Ionen infolge der W{\"a}rmebehandlung nicht bis in die Oktaederschicht der Tonminerale vordringen, sondern nur bis in die Tetraederschicht wandern. In den NH4+-belegten Montmorilloniten treten im Zusammenhang mit der Deammonisierung keine zus{\"a}tzlichen Struktur{\"a}nderungen (wie Aufl{\"o}sung der Oktaederschicht) infolge der W{\"a}rmebehandlung auf.}, subject = {Bentonit}, language = {de} } @book{Fehr, author = {Fehr, G{\"u}nter}, title = {Siedlungswasserwirtschaft im l{\"a}ndlichen Raum - Abwasserentsorgung}, editor = {Londong, J{\"o}rg}, edition = {3.

In ihrer ersten Ausgabe bereits hat die ZMK sich damit befasst, die philosophische Leitfrage nach dem Menschen medientheoretisch und kulturtechnisch neu zu grundieren. Eine solche Wendung ist daran erkennbar, dass sie von der Frage, was der Mensch sei, umstellt auf Fragen nach dem Werden und Gemachtwerden des Menschen, nach seiner Hominisierung und ihren Diskursen, ihren Verfahren, Werkzeugen und Orten in Raum und Zeit. Nicht so sehr was, sondern wo und wann, unter welchen Bedingungen und mithilfe welcher Instrumente und Operationen der Mensch sei, darum, so der Ausgangsgedanke, geht es der Medienanthropologie. Damals, in der ersten Ausgabe der ZMK, bestand die Leitidee darin, sich diesen Fragen zun{\"a}chst von der Peripherie her zu n{\"a}hern und die so verstandenen Bedingungen des Menschseins von der Gef{\"a}hrdung des Menschen, von einem exemplarischen Grenzzustand aus zu betrachten, in dem diese Bedingungen problematisch werden k{\"o}nnen, n{\"a}mlich demjenigen der Angst. Heute, und mit der vorliegenden Ausgabe, wird ein anderer, zus{\"a}tzlicher und zugleich weiter greifender Aspekt gesetzt. Denn das Feld der Medienanthropologie hat sich in den vergangenen Jahren ver- {\"a}ndert; die Debatten sind intensiviert und die Forschungen diversifiziert worden.
