Entwicklung der TOPCOP Taxonomie für Patientenportale: Forschungsdesign, Methoden und Anleitung zur Entwicklung und Evaluierung einer Taxonomie
by Michael GlögglerTaxonomien sind Modelle, um unübersichtliche Domänen zu analysieren, Komplexität zu reduzieren sowie Unterschiede und Ähnlichkeiten von Objekten zu erkennen. Ferner helfen sie, Wissen zu ordnen und so Wissen zu vergrößern. Da täglich neues Wissen entsteht, ist eine nutzungsorientierte Entwicklung von Taxonomien für die Wissenschaft und die Praxis von fundamentaler Bedeutung. Taxonomien sind unerlässlich für die Erforschung, Beschreibung und Strukturierung von Domänen. Trotz ihrer besonderen Bedeutung gibt es für viele Wissenschaften nur wenige Handlungsanleitungen zur Entwicklung von Taxonomien.In diesem Buch werden die Forschungsergebnisse der Dissertation mit dem Titel „Entwicklung einer Taxonomie für Patientenportale für Health Information Manager“ präsentiert. Aufgrund der detaillierten Darstellung der Entwicklungsschritte und der eingesetzten Methoden kann diese Dissertationsforschung als Anleitung zur Entwicklung von Taxonomien dienen. Dabei ist die Evaluierung für die Nützlichkeit einer Taxonomie maßgeblich. Mit dem „TED Taxonomy-Evaluation-Delphi Approach“ entwickelte der Autor eine neue Methode zur Evaluierung von Taxonomien, welche hier ausführlich beschrieben wird.
Entwicklung und Planung verfahrenstechnischer Anlagen (VDI-Buch)
by Siegfried Ripperger Kai NikolausDieses Fachbuch vermittelt wesentliche Grundlagen für die Entwicklung und Planung verfahrenstechnischer Anlagen, bei der technische, betriebliche, wirtschaftliche und rechtliche Forderungen beachtet werden müssen. Nach einer Einführung in die Anlagentechnik und das Projektmanagement werden wirtschaftliche Aspekte betrachtet, da die notwendigen finanziellen Mittel für eine Anlage in der Regel durch den zu erwartenden wirtschaftlichen Nutzeffekt gerechtfertigt werden. Verfahrenstechnische Anlagen sind oft einzigartig. Um dennoch eine zügige Projektabwicklung zu gewährleisten und um Kosten zu senken kommt der Modularisierung eine immer größere Bedeutung zu. Daher ist diesem Trend ein eigenes Kapitel gewidmet. Nach einer kurzen Einführung in das technische Recht werden zu beachtende rechtliche Aspekte behandelt. Weitere Kapitel beschreiben die Rolle der Normung, die große Palette der verwendeten Werkstoffe sowie bekannte Regeln zur Dimensionierung und Gestaltung von Bauelementen der Apparate.
Entwicklung und Validierung einer Prüfsystematik zur Charakterisierung von additiv gefertigten Thermoplast-Leichtbaustrukturen (Werkstofftechnische Berichte │ Reports of Materials Science and Engineering)
by Patrick StriemannDieses Buch befasst sich mit der Charakterisierung von additiv gefertigten Thermoplast-Leichtbaustrukturen. Die prozessbedingten Eigenheiten der additiven Fertigung beeinflussen die Prüfstrategien und die Charakterisierungsergebnisse. Daher werden einzelne Prüfstrategien zur Beurteilung der Qualität und der Leistungsfähigkeit auf das Verarbeitungsverfahren angepasst. Die qualitative Beurteilung erfolgte oberflächen- und volumenbasiert. Durch die Kombination beider Methoden konnten Ansammlungen von Porenvolumen den Fertigungseffekten zugeordnet werden. Die Bewertung des Verformungsverhaltens erfolgte in einem breiten Dehnratenbereich (statisch, quasistatisch und dynamisch), das Ermüdungsverhalten unter zyklischer Belastung wurde bis 108 Lastwechsel charakterisiert. Für die Untersuchungen im VHCF-Bereich wurde ein Hochfrequenz-Prüfsystem verwendet und die Temperaturentwicklung überwacht. Die adaptierten und neuentwickelten Prüfstrategien lassen sich in einer Prüfsystematik zusammenfassen, die die fertigungsbedingten Einflüsse berücksichtigen und einen sicheren Betrieb von langzeitbeanspruchten Thermoplast-Leichtbaustrukturen gewährleisten.

Enumerations: Data and Literary Study
by Andrew PiperFor well over a century, academic disciplines have studied human behavior using quantitative information. Until recently, however, the humanities have remained largely immune to the use of data—or vigorously resisted it. Thanks to new developments in computer science and natural language processing, literary scholars have embraced the quantitative study of literary works and have helped make Digital Humanities a rapidly growing field. But these developments raise a fundamental, and as yet unanswered question: what is the meaning of literary quantity? In Enumerations, Andrew Piper answers that question across a variety of domains fundamental to the study of literature. He focuses on the elementary particles of literature, from the role of punctuation in poetry, the matter of plot in novels, the study of topoi, and the behavior of characters, to the nature of fictional language and the shape of a poet’s career. How does quantity affect our understanding of these categories? What happens when we look at 3,388,230 punctuation marks, 1.4 billion words, or 650,000 fictional characters? Does this change how we think about poetry, the novel, fictionality, character, the commonplace, or the writer’s career? In the course of answering such questions, Piper introduces readers to the analytical building blocks of computational text analysis and brings them to bear on fundamental concerns of literary scholarship. This book will be essential reading for anyone interested in Digital Humanities and the future of literary study.

Environment and Development: Challenges, Policies and Practices
by Antonio Augusto Rossotto IorisThis book provides a comprehensive overview of emerging challenges facing different social groups, policy-makers and the international community related to economic growth, social development and environmental change, social inclusion and regional development. The book undertakes a critical assessment of the tensions associated with the failures of mainstream regulatory approaches and impacts of social and economic policies whilst widening the discussion on the interface between the expansion of the socio-environmental demands, equity and justice. These are crucial challenges, of great importance today and of equal relevance to the Global North and South. The book explores one of the main contradictions of development, the simplification of assessments and narrow consideration of alternatives. Taking this dilemma as its departure point, it goes on to examine the justification, trends and limitations of Western-based development and possible alternatives to fundamentally modify the basis and the rationale of the development process. It considers theoretical and lived experiences of development, paying attention to multiple scales, local realities and economic frontiers. Contributing authors explore policy recommendations and discuss effective practical tools for determining the values different people hold for ecosystem services and territorial resources. They cover the monitoring of change in the provision of ecosystem services that might increase the well-being of vulnerable groups as well as strategies to promote innovation and integrated, equitable and sustainable development.

Environment and Social Theory (Routledge Introductions to Environment: Environment and Society Texts)
by John BarryWritten in an engaging and accessible manner by one of the leading scholars in his field, Environment and Social Theory, completed revised and updated with two new chapters, is an indispensable guide to the way in which the environment and social theory relate to one another. This popular text outlines the complex interlinking of the environment, nature and social theory from ancient and pre-modern thinking to contemporary social theorizing. John Barry: examines the ways major religions such as Judaeo-Christianity have and continue to conceptualize the environment analyzes the way the non-human environment features in Western thinking from Marx and Darwin, to Freud and Horkheimer explores the relationship between gender and the environment, postmodernism and risk society schools of thought, and the contemporary ideology of orthodox economic thinking in social theorising about the environment. How humans value, use and think about the environment, is an increasingly central and important aspect of recent social theory. It has become clear that the present generation is faced with a series of unique environmental dilemmas, largely unprecedented in human history. With summary points, illustrative examples, glossary and further reading sections this invaluable resource will benefit anyone with an interest in environmentalism, politics, sociology, geography, development studies and environmental and ecological economics.
Environment and Society (Routledge Introductions to Environment: Environment and Society Texts)
by Erika CudworthAt the start of the twenty-first century, it can be argued that human societies have a greater impact on the environment than ever before. We have always been dependent upon, and interacted with, the 'natural' environment. However, the dramatic social changes of the past three centuries, have altered the form of our relationship with non-human nature to the extent that some would see people/planet relations as in a situation of crisis.Environment and Society provides a comprehensive and critical account of the ways in which we can think about the relationship between human societies and the environments with which they interact. It argues that human societies are ecologically embedded, and that environments are often socially embedded and constituted. It makes the different theoretical positions and empirical studies accessible to students, and includes chapter outlines and summaries, annotated further reading, boxed case-studies and discussion points.
