Open markets, international trade and foreign direct investments are a source of prosperity in challenging times. This Special Section looks at developed economies and emerging markets, also taking into account the role of trade for impactful capacity-building in least developed countries (LDCs). Specific emphasis is placed on financing economic development and trade, analysing what roles trade and development finance should play in the quest for an efficient mobilisation of private capital for growth, trade and development.
The development of new processes and materials for additive manufacturing is currently progressing rapidly. In order to use the advantages of additive manufacturing, however, product development and design must also be adapted to these new processes. Therefore it is suitable to use structural optimization. To achieve the best results in lightweight design, it is important to have an approach that reduces the volume in the unloaded regions and considers the restrictions and characteristics of the additive manufacturing process. In this contribution, a case study using a humanoid robot is presented. Thus, the pelvis module of a humanoid robot is optimized regarding its weight and stiffness. Furthermore, an integrated design is implemented in order to reduce the number of parts and the screw connections. The manufacturing uses a new aluminum-based material that has been specially developed for use in additive manufacturing and lightweight construction. For the additive manufacturing by means of the Selective Laser Melting (SLM) process, different restrictions and the assembly concepts of the humanoid robot have to be taken into account. These restrictions have to be considered in the setting of the individual parameters and target functions of the structural optimization. As a result, a framework is presented that shows the steps of the redesign and the optimization of the pelvis module. In order to achieve high accuracy with the product, the redesign of the pelvis module is demonstrated with regard to mechanical and thermal postprocessing. Finally, the redesigned part and the different assembly concepts are compared to analyze the economic and technical effects of the optimization.

LG Frankenthal (Pfalz), Urteil vom 10.07.2018 – 6 O 322/17 (nicht rechtskräftig, Az. des OLG Zweibrücken 4 U 114/18)
Growing demands for cleaner production and higher eco-efficiency in process engineering require a comprehensive analysis of technical and environmental outcomes of customers and society. Moreover, unexpected additional technical or ecological drawbacks may appear as negative side effects of new environ-mentally friendly technologies. The paper conceptualizes a comprehensive ap-proach for analysis and ranking of engineering and ecological requirements in process engineering in order to anticipate secondary problems in eco-design and to avoid compromising the environmental or technological goals. For this purpose, the paper presents a method based on integration of the Quality Func-tion Deployment approach with the Importance-Satisfaction Analysis for the requirements ranking. The proposed method identifies and classifies compre-hensively the potential engineering and eco-engineering contradictions through analysis of correlations within requirements groups such as stakehold-er requirements (SRs) and technical requirements (TRs), and additionally through cross-relationship between SRs and TRs.
Printed systems spark immense interest in industry, and for several parts such as solar cells or radio frequency identification antennas, printed products are already available on the market. This has led to intense research; however, printed field-effect transistors (FETs) and logics derived thereof still have not been sufficiently developed to be adapted by industry. Among others, one of the reasons for this is the lack of control of the threshold voltage during production. In this work, we show an approach to adjust the threshold voltage (Vth) in printed electrolyte-gated FETs (EGFETs) with high accuracy by doping indium-oxide semiconducting channels with chromium. Despite high doping concentrations achieved by a wet chemical process during precursor ink preparation, good on/off-ratios of more than five orders of magnitude could be demonstrated. The synthesis process is simple, inexpensive, and easily scalable and leads to depletion-mode EGFETs, which are fully functional at operation potentials below 2 V and allows us to increase Vth by approximately 0.5 V.
The Future of FDI: Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals 2030 through Impact Investment
(2019)
Publicized as a global call for action in 2015, the United Nations General Assembly passed a resolution on the Sustainable Development Goals 2030 (SDGs). Before issuing the SDGs in 2015, the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) has already identified in 2014, as part of their World Investment Report, that especially developing countries are facing an estimated USD 2.5 trillion funding gap annually in the efforts to achieve the SDGs. Yet, the investment opportunities and challenges for investors, when contributing to the closure of this funding gap while benefiting from its economic potential have not been widely discussed. Despite that Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) are a key driver to sustainable economic growth and prosperity of a nation, policies and a holistic framework linking the 2030 Agenda to actionable investment opportunities for private investors are missing. Furthermore, a global platform capturing, channeling and promoting investment projects aiming to achieve the SDGs through impact investment has not been established. Utilizing global financial resources more effectively while developing new approaches and tools to promote impact investments, which demonstrate the benefits for investors to tap into the funding gap of the 2030 Agenda, will have the potential to significantly shape and influence the future of FDI.

The Humboldt Portal has been designed and implemented as part of an ongoing research project to develop an information system on the Internet to share the documents and rare books of Alexander von Humboldt, a 19th century German scientist and explorer, who viewed the natural world holistically and described the harmony of nature among the diversity of the physical world. Even after more than two centuries he is admired for his ability to see the natural world and human nature in the context of a complex network of relationships. The design and implementation of the Humboldt Portal are also oriented to support further research on Humboldt’s intellectual perspective.
Although all of Humboldt's works can be found on the internet as digitized documents, the complexity and internal inter-connectivity of his vision of nature cannot be adequately represented only by digitized papers or scanned documents in digital libraries.
As a consequence a specific portal of the Humboldt's documents was developed, which extends the standards of digital libraries and offers a technical approach for the adequate presentation of highly interconnected data.
Due to the continuous scientific and literary research, new insights and requirements for the digital presentation of Humboldt documents are constantly emerging, so that this article only provides a summary of the concepts realized at now. Consequently, the design and implementation of the Humboldt Portal is both: a consequence of a continuing research project and oriented to support more research on Humboldt´s intellectual holistic perspective, which was an anticipation to the System Approach of the last Century.
Sweaty has already participated four times in RoboCup soccer competitions (Adult Size) and came second three times. While 2016 Sweaty needed a lot of luck to be finalist, 2017 Sweaty was a serious adversary in the preliminary rounds. In 2018 Sweaty showed up in the final with some lack of experience and room for improvements, but not without any chance. This paper describes the intended improvements of the humanoid adult size robot Sweaty in order to qualify for the RoboCup 2019 adult size competition.
