Stattdessen zeigt die gender-und diversit{\"a}tsbezogene Redaktionsforschung, dass Redaktionen nach wie vor in ihren Strukturen, Praktiken und in ihrer Kultur gesellschaftliche Machtverh{\"a}ltnisse widerspiegeln und (re-)produzieren. Doch im Zuge des „Entrepreneurial Journalism" entstehen heute vielerorts neue Organisationen. Diese journalistischen Neugr{\"u}ndungen zeichnen sich unter anderem durch kleinere, offenere und flexiblere Organisationsstrukturen aus. Ihr ver{\"a}nderter organisationaler Charakter wurde jedoch bislang noch nicht tiefergehend im Hinblick auf seine Potenziale und m{\"o}glichen Risiken f{\"u}r Diversit{\"a}t und (Anti-)Diskriminierung untersucht. Der Beitrag hat somit zum Ziel, journalistische Neugr{\"u}ndungen als neuen Gegenstand auf der Agenda der organisations-und diskriminierungsbezogenen Journalismusforschung zu positionieren. Dazu werden ausgew{\"a}hlte Studien zum „Entrepreneurial Journalism" im Hinblick auf Diversit{\"a}t und (Anti-)Diskriminierung aufgearbeitet und bestehende Desiderata identifiziert. Auf dieser Grundlage wird schließlich eine programmatische Forschungsagenda entwickelt, um empirische Folgeforschung zum Thema anzustoßen.}, subject = {Journalismus}, language = {de} } @article{PartschefeldTutalHalmansederetal., author = {Partschefeld, Stephan and Tutal, Adrian and Halmanseder, Thomas and Schneider, Jens and Osburg, Andrea}, title = {Investigations on Stability of Polycarboxylate Superplasticizers in Alkaline Activators for Geopolymer Binders}, series = {Materials}, volume = {2023}, journal = {Materials}, number = {Volume 16, issue 15, article 5369}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, doi = {10.3390/ma16155369}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20231026-64809}, pages = {1 -- 14}, abstract = {Calcined clays are interesting starting materials to be used as SCMs (supplementary cementitious materials) in cements or to be converted to geopolymers by activation with a high alkaline activator. The adjustment of the properties in the fresh state, especially regarding the consistency of these binders, is almost exclusively achieved by the addition of water, since commercially available superplasticizers seem to be ineffective in low-calcium geopolymer systems. The aim of this study was a systematic investigation of various PCE (polycarboxylate ester/ether) superplasticizers (methacrylate ester PCE: MPEG, isoprenol ether PCE: IPEG, methallyl ether PCE: HPEG) with respect to their stability in different alkaline activators (NaOH, KOH, sodium and potassium silicate solutions). The effectiveness of superplasticizers (SPs) in low-calcium geopolymer binders was verified by rheological tests. Size exclusion chromatography was used to investigate if structural degradation of the superplasticizers occurs. The investigated PCE superplasticizers showed a thickening effect in the low-calcium geopolymer system. Depending on the alkalinity of the activator solution, a degradation process was detected for all the PCEs investigated. The side chains of the PCEs are cleaved off the backbone by basic ester and ether hydrolysis. The highest degree of degradation was found in sodium and potassium silicate solutions. In alkaline hydroxide solutions, the degradation process increases with increasing alkalinity.}, subject = {Geopolymere}, language = {en} } @article{AnsariTartaglioneKoenke, author = {Ansari, Meisam and Tartaglione, Fabiola and K{\"o}nke, Carsten}, title = {Experimental Validation of Dynamic Response of Small-Scale Metaconcrete Beams at Resonance Vibration}, series = {materials}, volume = {2023}, journal = {materials}, number = {volume 16, issue 14, article 5029}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, doi = {10.3390/ma16145029}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20230818-64154}, pages = {1 -- 17}, abstract = {Structures and their components experience substantially large vibration amplitudes at resonance, which can cause their failure. The scope of this study is the utilization of silicone-coated steel balls in concrete as damping aggregates to suppress the resonance vibration. The heavy steel cores oscillate with a frequency close to the resonance frequency of the structure. Due to the phase difference between the vibrations of the cores and the structure, the cores counteract the vibration of the structure. The core-coating inclusions are randomly distributed in concrete similar to standard aggregates. This mixture is referred to as metaconcrete. The main goal of this work is to validate the ability of the inclusions to suppress mechanical vibration through laboratory experiments. For this purpose, two small-scale metaconcrete beams were cast and tested. In a free vibration test, the metaconcrete beams exhibited a larger damping ratio compared to a similar beam cast from conventional concrete. The vibration amplitudes of the metaconcrete beams at resonance were measured with a frequency sweep test. In comparison with the conventional concrete beam, both metaconcrete beams demonstrated smaller vibration amplitudes. Both experiments verified an improvement in the dynamic response of the metaconcrete beams at resonance vibration.}, subject = {Beton}, language = {en} } @article{Coenen, author = {Coenen, Ekkehard}, title = {Anti-Gewalttrainings, Gewaltwissen und die institutionelle Erzeugung gewaltbefreiter Subjekte}, series = {Soziale Passagen}, volume = {2023}, journal = {Soziale Passagen}, publisher = {VS, Verl. f{\"u}r Sozialwissenschaften/GWV-Fachverlag}, address = {Wiesbaden}, doi = {10.1007/s12592-023-00453-9}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20230720-64104}, pages = {1 -- 16}, abstract = {Dieser Beitrag fragt danach, wie Wissen {\"u}ber Gewalt in Anti-Gewalttrainings produziert, vermittelt und sozial wirkm{\"a}chtig wird.

Research has been carried out on the modal identification of rather simple truss structures. So far, less attention has been given to complex three-dimensional truss structures. This work develops a vibration-based methodology for determining modal information of three-dimensional space truss structures. The method uses a relatively complex space truss structure for its verification. Numerical modelling of the system gives modal information about the expected vibration behaviour. The identification process involves closely spaced modes that are characterised by local and global vibration mechanisms. To distinguish between local and global vibrations of the system, modal strain energies are used as an indicator. The experimental validation, which incorporated a modal analysis employing the stochastic subspace identification method, has confirmed that considering relatively high model orders is required to identify specific mode shapes. Especially in the case of the determination of local deformation modes of space truss members, higher model orders have to be taken into account than in the modal identification of most other types of structures.}, subject = {Fachwerkbau}, language = {en} } @article{KreskowskiRendleFroehlich, author = {Kreskowski, Adrian and Rendle, Gareth and Fr{\"o}hlich, Bernd}, title = {Efficient Direct Isosurface Rasterization of Scalar Volumes}, series = {Computer Graphics Forum}, volume = {2022}, journal = {Computer Graphics Forum}, number = {Volume 4, Issue 7}, publisher = {Wiley Blackwell}, address = {Oxford}, doi = {10.1111/cgf.14670}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20230525-63835}, pages = {215 -- 226}, abstract = {In this paper we propose a novel and efficient rasterization-based approach for direct rendering of isosurfaces. Our method exploits the capabilities of task and mesh shader pipelines to identify subvolumes containing potentially visible isosurface geometry, and to efficiently extract primitives which are consumed on the fly by the rasterizer. As a result, our approach requires little preprocessing and negligible additional memory. Direct isosurface rasterization is competitive in terms of rendering performance when compared with ray-marching-based approaches, and significantly outperforms them for increasing resolution in most situations. Since our approach is entirely rasterization based, it affords straightforward integration into existing rendering pipelines, while allowing the use of modern graphics hardware features, such as multi-view stereo for efficient rendering of stereoscopic image pairs for geometry-bound applications. Direct isosurface rasterization is suitable for applications where isosurface geometry is highly variable, such as interactive analysis scenarios for static and dynamic data sets that require frequent isovalue adjustment.}, subject = {Rendering}, language = {en} } @article{SanderWeissermel, author = {Sander, Hendrik and Weißermel, S{\"o}ren}, title = {Urban Heat Transition in Berlin: Corporate Strategies, Political Conflicts, and Just Solutions}, series = {Urban Planning}, volume = {2023}, journal = {Urban Planning}, number = {Volume 8, No 1}, publisher = {Cogitatio Press}, address = {Lissabon}, doi = {10.17645/up.v8i1.6178}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20230524-63845}, pages = {361 -- 371}, abstract = {In the field of urban climate policy, heat production and demand are key sectors for achieving a sustainable city. Heat production has to shift from fossil to renewable energies, and the heat demand of most buildings has to be reduced significantly via building retrofits. However, analyses of heat transition still lack its contextualization within entangled urban politico-economic processes and materialities and require critical socio-theoretical examination. Asking about the embeddedness of heat transition within social relations and its implications for social justice issues, this article discusses the challenges and opportunities of heat transition, taking Berlin as an example. It uses an urban political ecology perspective to analyze the materialities of Berlin's heating-housing nexus, its politico-economic context, implications for relations of inequality and power, and its contested strategies. The empirical analysis identifies major disputes about the future trajectory of heat production and about the distribution of retrofit costs. Using our conceptual approach, we discuss these empirical findings against the idea of a more just heat transition. For this purpose, we discuss three policy proposals regarding cost distribution, urban heat planning, and remunicipalization of heat utilities. We argue that this conceptual approach provides huge benefits for debates around heat transition and, more generally, energy justice and just transitions.}, subject = {Berlin}, language = {en} } @article{Bockelmann, author = {Bockelmann, Leo}, title = {Impacts of Change: Analysing the Perception of Industrial Heritage in the Vogtland Region}, series = {Urban Planning}, volume = {2023}, journal = {Urban Planning}, number = {Volume 8, No 1}, publisher = {Cogitatio Press}, address = {Lissabon}, doi = {10.17645/up.v8i1.6025}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20230524-63814}, pages = {30 -- 38}, abstract = {Beyond metropolitan areas, many peripheral regions and their cities in Europe have, in manifold ways, been significantly shaped by industrialisation.

Hence, this article seeks to analyse the perception of the industrial heritage in the Vogtland region, located alongside the border of three German federal states and the Czech Republic. It inquires as to the perception of the industrial heritage by the local population and related potential future narrations. Based on spontaneous and explorative interviews with local people as an empirical base, a discrepancy between the perception of the tangible and intangible dimensions of the industrial heritage can be observed. On the one hand, the tangible heritage like older factories and production complexes are seen as a functional legacy and an "eyesore" narrative is attributed to them. On the other hand, people often reference the personal and familial connection to the industry and highlight its importance for the historical development and the wealth of the region. But these positive associations are mainly limited to the intangible dimension and are disconnected from the material artefacts of industrial production.}, subject = {Vogtland}, language = {en} } @article{DamirMeyerAziz, author = {Damir, Mirhan and Meyer, Martin and Aziz, Hellen}, title = {Patterns of Detachment: Spatial Transformations of the Phosphate Industry in el-Quseir, Egypt}, series = {Urban Planning}, volume = {2023}, journal = {Urban Planning}, number = {Volume 8, No 1}, publisher = {Cogitatio Press}, address = {Lissabon}, doi = {10.17645/up.v8i1.6053}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20230524-63805}, pages = {1 -- 16}, abstract = {The establishment of phosphate mines and processing plants by Italian entrepreneurs in el-Quseir in 1912 revitalized a town that had faced a steady decline after the opening of the Suez Canal and re-linked it to the world economy.
