Klausur-Coach Statistik
(2016)
Der "Klausur-Coach Statistik" ist das richtige Buch für alle Bachelor-Studenten, die sich auf eine Klausur im Fach Statistik vorbereiten möchten und besonders gut durch das Lösen vieler anwendungsorientierter Aufgaben lernen. Die Fragestellungen orientieren sich primär – aber nicht ausschließlich – an Themen aus dem Bereich der BWL und VWL sowie verwandter Fächer. Im ersten Teil finden sich thematisch geordnete Übungsaufgaben, welche am besten parallel zum Studium gelöst werden sollten. Der zweite Teil enthält Klausuren, wie sie in Prüfungen im Bachelor-Studium typischerweise vorkommen; hier gibt es immer eine Mischung aus Aufgaben zu allen Themengebieten der Statistik im Grundstudium. Ausführliche Lösungen zu allen Aufgaben im dritten Teil des Buches runden das Coaching ab … und Panik vor der Statistikklausur sollte damit der Vergangenheit angehören!
Significant improvements in module performance are possible via implementation of multi-wire electrodes. This is economically sound as long as the mechanical yield of the production is maintained. While flat ribbons have a relatively large contact area to exert forces onto the solar cell, wires with round cross section reduce this contact area considerably – in theory to an infinitively thin line. Therefore, the local stresses induced by the electrodes might increase to a point that mechanical production yields suffer unacceptably.
In this paper, we assess this issue by an analytical mechanical model as well as experiments with an encapsulant-free N.I.C.E. test setup. From these, we can derive estimations for the relationship between lay-up accuracy and expected breakage losses. This paves the way for cost-optimized choices of handling equipment in industrial N.I.C.E.-wire production lines.
This mature textbook brings the fundamentals of fluid mechanics in a concise and mathematically understandable presentation. In the current edition, a section on dissipation and viscous potential flows has been added. Exercises with solutions help to apply the material correctly and promote understanding.
Sustainable chemical processes should be designed to combine the technological advantages and progress with lower safety risks and minimization of environmental impact such as, for example, reduction of raw materials, energy and water consumption, and avoidance of hazardous waste and pollution with toxic chemical agents. A number of novel eco-friendly chemical technologies have been developed in the recent decades with the help of the eco-innovations approaches and methods such as Life Cycle Analysis, Green Process Engineering, Process Intensification, Process Design for Sustainability, and others. An emerging approach to the sustainable process design in process engineering builds on the innovative solutions inspired from nature. However, the implementation of the eco-friendly technologies often faces secondary ecological problems. The study postulates that the eco-inventive principles identified in natural systems allow to avoid secondary eco-problems and proposes to apply these principles for sustainable design in chemical process engineering. The research work critically examines how this approach differs from the biomimetics, as it is commonly used for copying natural systems. The application of nature-inspired eco-design principles is illustrated with an example of a sustainable technology for extraction of nickel from pyrophyllite.
Do you know that for each banana bunch the complete plant must be cut as well? Only in Brazil 440 million trees are planted annually. With an average weight of 30 kg per banana plant you can estimate about 13,5 million tons of banana residues per year. Although there exist some projects to use these residues for the production of valuable products (e.g fibers for textile and paper production) most of this organic waste material is unused and left for composting on the farmland.
The basic idea of this project is to evaluate this organic waste material for converting it to a renewable and CO2 neutral fuel. Therefore, the different parts of the banana plant (heart, leaves and pseudo stem) were analyzed regarding their biogas potential (specific biogas yield and biogas production kinetics). In further studies the effect of mechanical and enzymatic pretreatments of the different parts of the plants was investigated. This examination could then be the basis for an energetic usage of this organic residue.
The biogas batch experiments were performed according to the german guideline VDI 4630 in 2-L-Batch reactors at 37°C. As biogas substrates, the heart, the leaves and the pseudo stem of the banana plant residue with and without enzymatic/mechanical pretreatment were used.
The different parts of the banana plants result in a specific biogas production yield in the range of 260-470 norm liters per kg organic dry mass.
To determine the influence of the mechanical pretreatment (particle size 1-15 mm) on the biogas production kinetics, the kinetic constants were defined and calculated. The reduction of the particle size leads to an improved biogas production kinetics. Therefore experiments will demonstrate, if the results from the batch experiments can be converted in the continuous fed biogas reactor. The experiments of the enzymatic pretreatment are still under investigation.

Aufbau/Ansteuerung/Kalibrierung/Pilotierung eines Lautsprecher-Halbkreises für Lokalisationstests
(2019)
Seit September 2018 ist die Hochschule Offenburg im Besitz einer Hörkabine, in der ein Schallquellenlokalisationstest im Rahmen dieser Bachelorarbeit aufgebaut wurde. Eine Schallquellenlokalisation ist im Alltag für Normalhörende in den meisten Fällen keine Schwierigkeit. Wir Menschen sind in der Lage mit einer Genauigkeit von 1° bis 2° eine Schallquelle zu lokalisieren (Feigenspan 2017,S.624). Entfällt jedoch das Hörvermögen auf einer Seite, so verschlechtert sich die Lokalisationsfähigkeit erheb-lich. Um Schallquellen präzise lokalisieren zu können, werden optimaler Weise beide Ohren benötigt. Heutzutage gibt es viele Hörsysteme, um diverse Hörstörungen zu therapieren. Den-noch bleibt die Lokalisationsfähigkeit für Menschen mit einseitiger Taubheit, bezie hungsweise asymmetrischen Hörverlust eine Herausforderung. Ein Schallquellenlo kalisationstest findet Anwendung in der Klinik, um eine bestmögliche Versor gung/Therapie durch Hörsysteme zu gewährleisten. Ziel dieser Bachelorarbeit war der Aufbau eines Lokalisationstestes nach Leitlinien einer wissenschaftlichen Publikation, sowie die Durchführung an fünf freiwilligen Normalhörenden. Die Realisierung umfasste den Aufbau der Lautsprecher, die An-steuerung mithilfe einer externen Soundkarte und MATLAB, eine Kalibrierung der Lautsprecher und die Durchführung der Tests.
Numerous 2,5-dimethoxy-N-benzylphenethylamines (NBOMe), carrying a variety of lipophilic substituents at the 4-position, are potent agonists at 5-hydroxytryptamine (5HT2A ) receptors and show hallucinogenic effects. The present study investigated the metabolism of 25D-NBOMe, 25E-NBOMe, and 25N-NBOMe using the microsomal model of pooled human liver microsomes (pHLM) and the microbial model of the fungi Cunninghamella elegans (C. elegans). Identification of metabolites was performed using liquid chromatography-high resolution-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-HR-MS/MS) with a quadrupole time-of-flight (QqToF) instrument. In total, 36 25D-NBOMe phase I metabolites, 26 25E-NBOMe phase I metabolites and 24 25N-NBOMe phase I metabolites were detected and identified in pHLM. Furthermore, 14 metabolites of 25D-NBOMe, 11 25E-NBOMe metabolites, and nine 25N-NBOMe metabolites could be found in C. elegans. The main biotransformation steps observed were oxidative deamination, oxidative N-dealkylation also in combination with hydroxylation, oxidative O-demethylation possibly combined with hydroxylation, oxidation of secondary alcohols, mono- and dihydroxylation, oxidation of primary alcohols, and carboxylation of primary alcohols. Additionally, oxidative di-O-demethylation for 25E-NBOMe and reduction of the aromatic nitro group and N-acetylation of the primary aromatic amine for 25N-NBOMe took place. The resulting 25N-NBOMe metabolites were unique for NBOMe compounds. For all NBOMes investigated, the corresponding 2,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine (2C-X) metabolite was detected. This study reports for the first time 25X-NBOMe N-oxide metabolites and hydroxylamine metabolites, which were identified for 25D-NBOMe and 25N-NBOMe and all three investigated NBOMes, respectively. C. elegans was capable of generating all main biotransformation steps observed in pHLM and might therefore be an interesting model for further studies of new psychoactive substances (NPS) metabolism.
