First-principles electronic transport properties of Ti and Ti-6Al-4V for modeling ultrashort-pulse laser ablation

Predictive modeling of ultrashort-pulse laser ablation requires temperature-dependent material parameters derived from the electronic structure, namely the electronic thermal conductivity, electron-phonon coupling, and heat capacity. These parameters are well documented for eleme...

Business Cycle Effects of Firms’ Uncertainty Under Low and High Uncertainty

Abstract Non-linearities in the uncertainty-output relationship may help to explain pronounced business cycle fluctuations. We suggest that the level of uncertainty itself influences the reaction of real activity to a surprise increase in uncertainty. We base our analysis on a me...

Assessment of adhesion and durability of laminated safety glass made from end-of-life float glass

Abstract As part of urban mining initiatives aimed at reducing waste, CO 2 emissions and the extraction of raw materials, the demand for sustainable resource recovery and repurposing of construction materials is growing. With many European buildings due to be renovated to meet cu...

Freiwilligentourismus aus der Perspektive von Ethik und Moral

Zusammenfassung Der vorliegende Beitrag bietet eine konzeptionelle und vergleichende Analyse des Freiwilligentourismus aus ethischer Perspektive. Während sich die bestehende Forschung überwiegend auf die Motivationsfaktoren der Freiwilligen sowie auf die wahrgenommenen Auswirkung...

Uncertainties of GRACE/GRACE-FO Satellite Gravimetry Data and Thereof Derived Products

Abstract Inter-satellite ranging by space gravimetry missions, such as from the Gravity Recovery And Climate Experiment (GRACE) mission and its successor mission GRACE Follow-On, has been established to observe mass variations in the Earth system from space globally. A complex pr...

What constitutes successful collaborative conjecturing-and-proving processes? Relations between beginning undergraduates’ resources, conjecturing-and-proving processes, and performance

Abstract Students’ difficulties with mathematical argumentation, conjecturing, and proving, as well as with collaborating effectively, have long been documented in the literature. While there is some research on what constitutes successful proving processes, systematic investigat...
