Wirbelkammerdioden zur Schwingungsdämpfung in Pumpendruckleitungen – Ergebnisse aus Messungen, Druckstoßberechnungen und Hinweise zur praktischen Anwendung
Authors: Haakh Frieder
Published: February 2022

Das transiente Strömungsverhalten von Wirbelkammerdioden wurde erstmals mit einem Druckstoßprogramm modelliert. Das Modell wurde anhand von experimentell gewonnenen Daten kalibriert und validiert. Darauf aufbauend konnte der Einsatz von Wirbelkammerdioden als asymmetrisches Drosselorgan anstelle der bisherigen Drossel mit By-Pass-Lösung zur Schwingungs- und Druckbegrenzung in Pumpendruckleitungen mit Druckbehältern zur Druckstoßsicherung untersucht werden. Für 3 unterschiedliche Pumpendruckleitungssysteme wurde das transiente Systemverhalten nach einem Pumpenaus ohne Drossel, mit Drossel und By-Pass und mit verschiedenen Wirbelkammerdioden mittels Druckstoßprogramm berechnet. Es zeigt sich, dass Wirbelkammerdioden die Schwingung rasch dämpfen und auch den Druckanstieg wirkungsvoll begrenzen. Schließlich wurde noch ein Pumpenausfall und das transiente Drosselverhalten der im Pumpwerk Amstetten der Landeswasserversorgung eingebauten Wirbelkammerdioden nachgerechnet und Messwerten gegenübergestellt. Der Beitrag enthält den Programmcode und alle für die Auslegung und Berechnung erforderlichen Parameterwerte für Wirbelkammerdioden unterschiedlicher Nennweiten, so dass der Weg für die praktische Anwendung frei ist.
Spurenstoffbelastungen in der Donau - Herkunft und laufende Überwachung auf neue Unbekannte
Authors: Bader Tobias
Published: February 2022

Eine Überwachung von Roh- und Trinkwasser ist für eine sichere Trinkwasserversorgung essentiell. Neben gezielter Target-Analytik werden vermehrt Non-Target-Screening-Ansätze genutzt, um auch unbekannte oder unerwartete Spurenstoffe zu erfassen. Beide Analysenmethoden wurden etabliert, um die Donau sowie deren Zuflüsse im Großraum Ulm zu untersuchen. Die höchsten Mediankonzentrationen wurden für hochpolare Stoffe festgestellt. Diese sind besonders in den Fokus zu rücken, da sie aufgrund ihrer Persistenz und Mobilität oft natürliche und technische Barrieren durchschreiten und bis ins Trinkwasser gelangen können. Mehr als die Hälfte der Positivbefunde in der Donau stellten Arznei- und Röntgenkontrastmittel dar. Hier legen unerwartet hohe Konzentrationsspitzen mit großer zeitlicher Varianz einen industriellen Quellenschwerpunkt nahe. Weitere intelligente Probenahme-, Analytik- und Auswertestrategien zur endgültigen Aufklärung werden angestrebt. Dies wird die Grundlage schaffen, um gezielte Maßnahmen im Sinne des vorsorgenden Umwelt- und Gesundheitsschutzes zu ergreifen.

Towards a Common Public Culture? Boundaries to Belonging in Catalonia
Authors: Sánchez‐Martí Angelina , Pàmies Jordi , Caravaca Alejandro , Llos Berta
Published: February 2022

The tension between the will to build a collective national identity and the increasing diversity of today’s societies is one of the main challenges facing nation‐states today. Catalan society, being no exception, also faces many challenges as diasporic identities and transnational loyalties proliferate, weakening both citizens’ roots and their need to belong. The present article aims to identify situations and social spaces of discrimination and explicit/implicit racism, existing mechanisms and responses aimed at avoiding and dealing with these situations, and the groups they affect most in Catalan society. Through a participatory research, 23 focus groups were carried out—of between six and 12 participants—in eight territories (Pàmies et al., 2020). Results reveal diverse areas of discrimination, ranging from the violation of civil and political rights to that of economic, social, and cultural rights. The situations described and named by some as examples of micro‐racism complicate the sense of belonging for many citizens, challenging the real possibility of achieving a pluricultural collective identity. Thus, to promote belonging and build a common public culture with which everyone feels identified, as promoted by official speeches, it is necessary to recognize plurality and diversity and promote citizen participation—and representation—in devising public actions, as well as encourage interactions that emphasize all common and shared aspects in a context conditioned by the reactive fragmentation of identity politics.

Personal characteristics of patients with tension headache
Authors: Yakupova A. A. , Ismagilov M. F. , Yakupov R. A. , Panchenko M. A.
Published: February 2022

With tension-type headache (THT) with a high frequency (up to 90%), psycho-emotional disorders are detected in the form of increased excitability, anxiety, fear, and depression. At the present stage of studying the problem, the role of depression is especially emphasized. On the one hand, depression is primarily associated with neurotransmitter shifts in the CNS, in particular, with insufficiency of the serotonergic systems of the brain, which determine both the dysfunction of the antinociceptive system and the development of depressive disorders. On the other hand, chronic pain limits a person's capabilities, disrupts his life plans, etc. Such a decrease in the quality of life can give rise to secondary depression. It must be emphasized that the development of emotional-affective disorders, their severity, curability, tendency to relapse largely depend on the personality characteristics of the individual, which are determined by the constitutional features of the CNS reactivity.

Education and Healthcare Reforms in Post-Conflict Setting: Case Studies in Kosovo
Authors: Han Alex E
Published: February 2022

Kosovo is a small country that was first declared an independent state on 17 February 2008. Albanians make up 90% of the overall population, whereas the Serbs, Turks, Bosnians, and Roma make up to 10% of the total population as the minority group. Before 1999, Kosovo was part of the Yugoslav organization, but after the March –June 1999 conflicts, the North Atlantic Treaty Forces (NATO), thus bringing Kosovo under United Nations administration (Solana, 114-120). Post-conflict recovery is heavy for Kosovo as it entails rebuilding numerous systems' infrastructure for both the healthcare system and education system (Solana, 114-120). The infrastructure and procedures need to be carefully reorganized to curb both communicable and non-communicable diseases to restructure family care and also to better the education provided in Kosovo. The new state is experiencing a slow economic growth rate of less than 4% causing a slow growth rate of both the education and the healthcare system. This rate of economic growth is caused by almost half of the Kosovo people being unemployed and young. The state of the education system in Kosovo has been affected by many different players that have over the years disintegrated the education system and particularly left adverse effects on children and women. According to the PISA international exam for international students OECD exam that was conducted to test the ability of learners to study, Kosovo students became the last three position out of the 73 counties that took the test for math and reading. This shows that the quality of education at these schools is still low. This indicated poor planning in the Kosovo education system for instance the high congestion in schools since due to the overcrowding, students do not get to experience the personalized teaching they require hence both the learners and teachers end up feeling stressed, poor funding for schools in Kosovo, poor working standards and low salaries for teachers. These reforms were to help Albania to reform from the adverse effects of conflict by the Serbians. The aim of these reforms for both healthcare and education was to improve the current unfavorable conditions like lack of equipment as the learners would sit on the floor and write on each other’s backs and hospitals lacked equipment for work.

Published: February 2022

Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) has a spectrum of severity from no symptoms to serious complications. Coagulopathy is a serious complication of COVID-19, and that condition is a marker of poor prognosis. Anticoagulant drugs are often used as prophylaxis and thrombosis therapy to treat COVID-19 patients. Anticoagulant therapy is indicated for moderate-severe COVID-19 patients. Low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) and Unfractionated Heparin (UFH) are anticoagulant drugs of choice for prophylaxis and thrombosis therapy in COVID-19 patients. When administering anticoagulant drugs, monitoring bleeding, renal function, and platelet count needs to be done, even if only as thromboprophylaxis. LMWH and UFH have good clinical efficacy with minimal side effects in managing COVID-19 patients.

The paper presents results of using a neural network classifier to analyze images of malignant skin lesions obtained using a hyper-spectral camera. Using a three-block neural network of VGG architecture, we conducted the classification of a set of two-dimensional images of melanoma, papilloma and basal cell carcinoma, obtained in the range of 530 – 570 and 600 – 606 nm, characterized by the highest absorption of melanin and hemoglobin. The sufficiency of the inclusion in the training set of two-dimensional images of a limited spectral range is analyzed. The results obtained show significant prospects of using neural network algorithms for processing hyperspectral data for the classification of skin pathologies. With a relatively small set of training data used in the study, the classification accuracy for the three types of neoplasms was as high as 96 %.

The methods of X-ray computed tomography allow us to study the internal morphological structure of objects in a non-destructive way. The evolution of these methods is similar in many respects to the evolution of photography, where complex optics were replaced by mobile phone cameras, and the computers built into the phone took over the functions of high-quality image generation. X-ray tomography originated as a method of hardware non-invasive imaging of a certain internal cross-section of the human body. Today, thanks to the advanced reconstruction algorithms, a method makes it possible to reconstruct a digital 3D image of an object with a submicron resolution. In this article, we will analyze the tasks that the software part of the tomographic complex has to solve in addition to managing the process of data collection. The issues that are still considered open are also discussed. The relationship between the spatial resolution of the method, sensitivity and the radiation load is reviewed. An innovative approach to the organization of tomographic imaging, called “reconstruction with monitoring”, is described. This approach makes it possible to reduce the radiation load on the object by at least 2–3 times. In this work, we show that when X-ray computed tomography moves towards increasing the spatial resolution and reducing the radiation load, the software part of the method becomes increasingly important.

Equal Access to Vaccines within the Scope of the Health Policies Carried out in the COVID 19 Pandemic: A Financing Proposal
Authors: AYTAÇ Deniz
Published: February 2022

The COVID-19 virus, which caused a global pandemic in 2020, caused 248 million people to get sick and 5 million people to die in the last quarter of 2021. It has been stated that the way out of the global pandemic is to vaccinate 70% of the world's population, but vaccination levels have remained very low, especially in low and middle-income countries. $50 billion in funding to enable low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) access to the COVID-19vaccine and to accelerate vaccination, and rich countries' reluctance to share vaccines. Increasing the vaccine supply will provide an important solution in ensuring equal access to the vaccine. R&D investment expenditures in healthcare and biotechnology are expected to have an impact on increasing the supply of high-tech vaccines. In the process from the development of the vaccine to its production, biotechnology companies may encounter financing problems. In this context, venture capital may be a solution to the solution of the financing problem and to increase the vaccine supply. In this context, the global increase in venture capital investments, which is an important method of financing innovation, and the direct support of the public to companies producing vaccine technologies, either alone or through public-private partnerships, will make a significant contribution to increasing the vaccine supply, which is a major problem in accessing COVID-19 vaccines. In this context, ıt can be suggested that the state provides investment, screening and advice (guidance) services in the field of innovation by funding companies directly as venture capitalists or through public-private partnerships.
Are Civilisation Diseases Chronic Silent Inflammations?
Authors: Doepp Manfred
Published: February 2022

The causes of chronic civilisation diseases are still unclear. This article examines and supports the hypothesis that chronic silent inflammation is likely to be the underlying cause. Reactions of the immune system that are excessive and can no longer be controlled by the organism are involved. Triggers can be pathogens, but then the processes continue as autoaggressions. A number of natural remedies are presented that are more than symptomatically effective.

Authors: M. Njeru Fridah , Kassilly Janet , Matanga Frank K.
Published: February 2022

Election violence has the potential to threaten the peace and security of many nations and destabilize the social fabric. Scholars have argued that women and children bear the greatest burden in times of violence compared to men. The main purpose of this study was to assess the nature and aspects of gender integration during election violence in Kibera slum, Kenya. The study was guided by social integration theory by Emille Durkheim and employed the descriptive research design. Fischer formulae as suggested was used to arrive at the sample size of 384 respondents;

S = X2 NP (1-P) / d2 (N-1) + X2 P (1-P). Data were collected by use of interviewee assisted questionnaires and unstructured interview schedules. Data were analyzed by use of the statistical packages for social scientists (SPSS version 17). Data were presented in form of frequency tables, bar graphs, pie charts and verbatims, Measures of data analysis used included the chi square, mean, R spearman’s rank order correlation. The study established that Kibera residents had a moderately cordial relationship with each other during election violence. Majority could seek help or be helped, buy property or land, marry or be married and employ or be employed by someone outside their ethnic, social class political and religious affiliations. Election violence had a negative relationship with ethnic affiliations, social class, political affiliation and religious affiliation aspects of gender integration, that is, an increase in election violence would lead to a decrease in gender integration. Generally, women were more integrated compared to men. The study recommends that NGOs, CBOs and FBOs enhance their non-partisan advocacy and carry out civic education to enlighten Kibera residents and Kenyans at large on the importance of gender integration especially during the elections.
Socio-Political Resistance in Sindh: From Ancient times to British India
Authors: Chandio Abdul Shakoor , Chang Ali Qasim
Published: February 2022

If there is a discussion about the resistance in Sindh it had played an important role in history. It helped Sindh on the two fronts.  One of the fronts of resistance had helped Sindh to preserve and maintain the age-old separate and distinct Identity from the foreign aggressions. Sindhi people have boldly stood against foreign invaders. It is another matter that like any other nation, Sindhi people sometimes succeeded in this regard to defend their motherland, and sometimes, they failed. But it is clear evidence that Sindh has staunchly opposed the foreign plunderers and attackers. The second important level of resistance is within the society. Sindhi people have initiated individual and collective levels movements against prevailing exploitation and injustice in the society. Sufis have played their part in this regard to curtail religious extremism and to strive hard to bring religious tolerance, harmony, and peace loving society. Besides the Sufis movement, Sindhi scholars, students, women, peasants have long struggled for the major contradictions and injustice in society. Like every other society, now there are various political parties and organizations working in Sindh. A variety of leftist political parties and innumerable rightist political parties are doing their politics. There exists civil society, women’s organizations, and student organizations working for the downtrodden class of society. Nationalist politics with respect to the vested interests of Sindh is commonplace. This was the brief nature of resistance which had remained insignificant in shaping and preserving the separate and distinct identity of Sindh.
The American Withdrawal from Afghanistan: Consequences and Perspectives
Authors: Malick BA Papa , FAYE Diome
Published: February 2022

After twenty years of war against al-Qaida and the Taliban, the US and its allies have withdrawn from Afghanistan, causing much ink to flow, for the return to power in Kabul on Sunday 15 august 2021 and the runaway of President Ashraf Ghani have exposed all the flaws that explain the American fiasco in Afghanistan. The consequences of the withdrawal are numerous and various. In Afghanistan, desolation and disenchantment were the most common feelings among many Afghans, immediately after the fall of Kabul. The new measures taken by the new authorities such as the abolition of mixed classes in the education system and the attacks on certain civil society authorities, women, and journalists, show that many democratic gains are being questioned. In the United States, the debacle in Afghanistan has not only prompted much of the public to question the chaotic management of the war by U.S political authorities, but also prompted a call for them to come home and manage domestic affairs. The recognition of the new afghan authorities by China, Russia, Pakistan and Iran foreshadows geopolitical prospects in the sub-region. The ineffectiveness and uselessness of the use of force to instill democratic and peaceful values are lessons to be learned from American foreign policy.

The development of a software tool for finding the optimal sequence of technological operations of the production process of a logging enterprise, as well as the principles of its operation, is considered. Planning of logging production is quite a complex process, since it is necessary to determine the optimal strategy of activity, taking into account a large number of factors, increasing revenue and reducing costs. There are many options for organizing the technological process of harvesting and hauling wood. The program is developed on the basis of the algorithm given in the scientific literature for solving the problem of finding the optimal technological sequence of logging operations in order to automate calculations that are time-consuming. The application is created in the Delphi programming language in the Delhi XE2 RAD Studio development environment. The data used for the calculations is presented in an Excel table. To find the minimum cost flow, the program implements the Basaker — Gowan and Ford — Bellman algorithms. The result of the software tool is the optimal technological chain of delivery of wood from the cutting area to the consumer and corresponding costs. The results are displayed on the screen and can be saved to an Excel file. It is possible for the user to get help information about working with the program. With the help of the developed application, the technological chain of operations for the primary processing and transportation of harvested wood from the cutting area to the consumer is determined, which is characterized by a minimum cost for performing all types of work. The testing showed that the software can be used in practical activities by the head of the logging process at the enterprises of the forest industry.

Aristotle’s "Nicomachean Ethics": Laying the Foundations for a Pragmatist Consideration of Human Knowing and Acting
Authors: Prus Robert
Published: February 2022

Whereas a great many academics have presumed to speak knowledgeably about Aristotle's work, comparatively few have actually studied his texts in sustained detail and very few scholars in the social sciences have examined Aristotle's work mindfully of its relevance for the study of human knowing and acting on a more contemporary or enduring plane.

Further, although many people simply do not know Aristotle's works well, even those who are highly familiar with Aristotle's texts (including Nicomachean Ethics) generally have lacked conceptual frames for traversing the corridors of Western social thought in more sustained pragmatist terms. It is here, using symbolic interactionism (a sociological extension of pragmatist philosophy) as an enabling device for developing both transsituational and transhistorical comparisons, that it is possible to establish links of the more enduring and intellectually productive sort between the classical scholarship of the Greeks and the ever emergent contemporary scene.

After (1) overviewing the theoretical emphasis of symbolic interactionism, this paper (2) locates Aristotle's works within a broader historical context, (3) situates Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics within the context of his own work and that of his teacher Plato, and (4) takes readers on an intellectual voyage through Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics. Not only does his text address a great many aspects of human lived experience, but it also has great instructive value for the more enduring study of human group life. Accordingly, attention is given to matters such as (a) human agency, reflectivity, and culpability; (b) definitions of the situation; (c) character, habits, and situated activities; (d) emotionality and its relationship to activity; (e) morality, order, and deviance; (f) people's senses of self regulation and their considerations of the other; (g) rationality and judgment; (h) friendship and associated relationships; (i) human happiness; and (k) intellectual activity.

In concluding the paper, one line of inquiry that uses contemporary symbolic interaction as resource for engaging Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics is suggested. However, as indicated in the broader statement presented here, so much more could be accomplished by employing symbolic interactionism as a contemporary pragmatist device for engaging Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics.
Telling Tales of Oppression and Dysfunction: Narratives of Class Identity Reformation
Authors: Hurst Allison L.
Published: February 2022

I compare experiences and class identity formation of working-class college students in college. I find that all working-class students experience college as culturally different from their home cultures and have different understandings and interpretations of this difference based on race, class, and gender positions. I find that students develop fundamentally different strategies for navigating these cultural differences based on the strength or weakness of their structural understandings of class and inequality in US society. Students with strong structural understandings develop Loyalist strategies by which they retain close ties to their home culture. Students with more individual understandings of poverty and inequality develop Renegade strategies by which they actively seek immersion in the middleclass culture of the college. These strategic orientations are logical responses to the classed nature of our educational system and have very significant implications for the value and experience of social mobility in an allegedly meritocratic society.
Still Killing Mockingbirds: Narratives of Race and Innocence in Hollywood’s Depiction of the White Messiah Lawyer
Authors: Moore Wendy Leo , Pierce Jennifer
Published: February 2022

Through a narrative analysis of movies confronting issues of race and racism in the post-civil rights era, we suggest that the movie To Kill a Mockingbird ushered in a new genre for movies about race which presented an image of a white male hero, or perhaps savior, for the black community. We suggest that this genre outlasted the era of the Civil Rights Movement and continues to impact popular cultural discourses about race in post-civil rights America. Post-civil rights films share the central elements of the anti-racist white male hero genre, but they also provide a plot twist that simultaneously highlights the racial innocence of the central characters and reinforces the ideology of liberal individualism. Reading these films within their broader historical context, we show how the innocence of these characters reflects not only the recent neo-conservative emphasis on “color blindness,” but presents a cinematic analogue to the anti-affirmative action narrative of the innocent white victim.

A prática como componente curricular
Authors: Schmitz Gabriela , Tolentino Neto Luiz Caldeira Brant
Published: February 2022

A Prática como Componente Curricular (PCC) foi instituída em 2002, como uma forma de articular as dimensões teóricas e práticas na formação de professores. Neste estudo bibliográfico, do estado do conhecimento, tivemos como objetivo investigar os contextos das publicações em periódicos, indexados no Portal de Periódicos da Capes, que tratam da PCC, traçando um panorama das mesmas. Os trabalhos foram analisados segundo a Análise de Conteúdo. Observamos, que a maior parte dos estudos publicados ocorreu em contextos de instituições públicas, concentrados, principalmente, nos últimos 5 anos, e buscaram analisar como a PCC está descrita e como se realiza nas instituições. A partir dos resultados encontrados, pudemos observar que os formadores de professores pouco conhecem sobre a PCC ou sentem dificuldades em realizá-la, confusões sobre o sentido da prática e, ainda, desvalorização desse componente por parte de licenciados, o que demonstra a necessidade de diálogos e esclarecimentos sobre a prática como componente curricular dentro das instituições.

La actividad física y la percepción de calidad de vida tienen importancia para conocer los problemas del sedentarismo, enfermedades no transmisibles e inactividad física en la población. El COVID-19 es causante de la emergencia sanitaria según la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS). En Perú, el estado de emergencia sanitaria establecido obligó a enfrentar desafíos laborales, por ende, inició el teletrabajo como alternativa laboral, la cual asocia a una vida sedentaria sin actividad física y dolores crónicos al aspecto biopsicosocial. Objetivo: Determinar la asociación entre el nivel de actividad física y la percepción de la calidad de vida en el personal administrativo durante la pandemia del COVID-19 en una Universidad Privada del Perú. Material y métodos: Estudio de naturaleza observacional, analítico de corte transversal. Se utilizó los cuestionarios IPAQ y WHOQOL-BREF. Resultados: se observó que en la mayoría de los participantes se encontraban en nivel vigoroso de actividad física. Se halló que la mayoría trabaja de manera sedentaria entre menor o igual de 4 al día con una mediana de edad de los participantes de 37 años. Respecto a la calidad de vida en el domino de salud física y psicológica “bueno”, relaciones sociales “regular” y medio ambiente “malo”. Conclusiones: en nuestro estudio no se encontró una asociación significativa entre el nivel de actividad física y la percepción de la calidad de vida en el personal administrativo durante la pandemia del COVID-19.
Effects of gibberellic acid on the stem and root growth patterns of Abelmoschus esculentus
Authors: Lal Sanjeev , Chauwan Aradhna , Chandra Vipin
Published: February 2022

The seeds of Abelmoschus esculentus were grown in sandy loam soil of three field plots for the treatment of GA3 hormone concentration such as control plot (A), no treatment was given to this plot. Plot (B) was treated by GA3 (10-2 M) concentration and plot (C) was treated by GA3 (10-3 M) concentration daily and compared to the control field plot. The plants of Abelmoschus esculentus, for the growth analysis were taken regularly and randomly at the 15 days interval from the seedling emergence stage till to maturity. The length of Abelmoschus esculentus stem and root growth pattern (Okra) was observed with two concentrations of these plant hormones such as GA3 (10-2 M) and GA3 (10-3 M)) concentration and to evaluate the best concentration of these growth regulators as (GA3 (10-3 M)) only, which showed the maximum stem and root length of the Abelmoschus esculentus as compared to the control.

The extract showed antimicrobial activity against Aspergillus niger, Escherichia coli, and Klebsiella pneumoniae with a range of 8-16 mm zone of diameter, This study gives a new route to discovery of new drug for the control of microorganisms.
Robotics for children
Authors: Trültzsch-Wijnen Christine W. , Velicu Anca , Liubiniene Vilmante
Published: February 2022

This article explores the issue of introducing children between six and ten years of age to robotics and investigates the use of robots in schools and in extracurricular activities. The central questions are 1) whether and how the introduction of robotics is addressed in political strategies and educational policies (RQ1), and 2) what the main actors in the introduction of robots in educational settings are (RQ2). Therefore, a pilot study in three European countries (Austria, Lithuania, Romania) was conducted, which included an analysis of national policy strategies, as well as interviews with three stakeholders per country. The article illustrates the specificities of the investigated countries presented as case studies and discusses them in a comparative way. The findings show that the investigated countries’ educational policies aim at mirroring the Digital Agenda for Europe and that two opposite approaches to implementation of robotics (bottom-up vs. top-down) can be identified.
Roadmap to Neutrality – What Foundational Questions Need Answering to Determine One’s Ideal Decarbonisation Strategy
Authors: Buettner Stefan M.
Published: February 2022

Considering increasingly ambitious pledges by countries, pressure from society, investors, and clients further up the supply chain, the question for companies is not so much whether to take decarbonisation action, but what action and by when. However, determining an ideal mix of measures to apply ‘decarbonisation efficiency’ requires more than knowledge of technically feasible measures and how to combine them to achieve the most economic outcome: In this paper, the author describes seven aspects which heavily influence the composition of an ‘ideal mix’ that executive leadership needs to take a (strategic) position on. These aspects consider underlying motivations and span across (socio-)economic, technical, regulatory, strategic, corporate culture and environmental factors and further underline the necessity of clarity of definitions. How these decisions influence the determination of the decarbonisation-efficient ideal mix of measures, both in principle but also in terms of specific impact is further explored by providing examples. What choices are taken by German manufacturers in several of the aspects is disclosed by insights from about 850 responses to the ‘Energy Efficiency Index of German Industry’. Knowledge of the status quo, and clarity in definitions, objectives, time frames and scope are key.
