description: This mainly empirical work aims to further investigate the distinction between centre and periphery Europe. In the first part the author calculates some indices that shed light on the causes of the distinction shown by Bayoumi and Eichengreen and shows the evolution of these indices over time, trying to infer whether there is a trend towards integration or disintegration. Then, a more detailed analysis of the structure of trade between France, Italy and Germany is proposed. In the second part some indices of trade integration are calculated and two traditional tools from the empirical literature on international trade are used: the intensity indices and gravitation model.

subject: F41

description: The Swedish School, with its representatives Ohlin, Hammarskjöld and Lindahl, madeimportant contributions to the economic theory of the open economy, even if such contributions have never been at the centre of attention of economists, probably due to their dark language style. In particular, it had a vision of the operating of an open economy that was completely different from post-war Keynesian orthodoxy. The exchange rate regime does not isolate a small economy from the repercussions of events that occur in financial markets and from goods at the international level. The other major assumption of open economy macroeconomics was the independence of monetary policy. The Keynesian models in the 1950s included only external money. On the contrary, the Swedes considered the credit system and the working of international banks. JEL: F41

description: Objective: Divalproex sodium is a challenging drug owing to its hygroscopicity, bitter taste, and short in vivo half-life. This study aims to produce stable taste masked divalproex sodium once daily tablets using solvent free hot melt granulation process. Methods: A lab scale high shear mixer granulator employing six meltable lipid binders (compritol®888 ATO, beeswax, gelucire®50/13, precirol® ATO5, stearyl alcohol, and geleol®) were used for the preparation of tablets. Quality control tests were performed on granules and tablets, and Box Behnken design was adopted to investigate the effect of binder concentration, impeller speed, and granulation time on the drug dissolution. Shelf and accelerated stability evaluation, taste assessment and in vivo pharmacokinetic study were conducted on the selected batches. Results: Results revealed that divalproex sodium tablets were successfully prepared, and that the in vitro dissolution of the drug was inversely proportional to the binder concentration. Beeswax and compritol® tablets showed similar dissolution profiles to the marketed product Depakote® 500 ER tablets (F1 50). The selected batches showed lower moisture content (<2%) and successfully masked the bitter taste compared to uncoated tablets based on a hydrophilic matrix. The in vivo pharmacokinetic study delineated relative bioavailability values for Beeswax and Compritol® tablets of 95.6% and 118% respectively compared to the marketed product. Conclusions: The solvent free hot melt granulation process can be employed to formulate 24h extended dissolution divalproex sodium tablets with masked bitter taste and high stability, and comparable or higher bioavailability than the marketed product.

description: The collaboration of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has become a popular research topic for its practicability in multiple scenarios. The collaboration of multiple UAVs, which is also known as aerial swarm is a highly complex system, which still lacks a state-of-art decentralized relative state estimation method. In this paper, we present a novel fully decentralized visual-inertial-UWB fusion framework for relative state estimation and demonstrate the practicability by performing extensive aerial swarm flight experiments. The comparison result with ground truth data from the motion capture system shows the centimeter-level precision which outperforms all the Ultra-WideBand (UWB) and even vision based method. The system is not limited by the field of view (FoV) of the camera or Global Positioning System (GPS), meanwhile on account of its estimation consistency, we believe that the proposed relative state estimation framework has the potential to be prevalently adopted by aerial swarm applications in different scenarios in multiple scales.

description: We construct two models of discrete-time replicator dynamics with time delay. In the social-type model, players imitate opponents taking into account average payoffs of games played some units of time ago. In the biological-type model, new players are born from parents who played in the past. We consider two-player games with two strategies and a unique mixed evolutionarily stable strategy. We show that in the first type of dynamics, it is asymptotically stable for small time delays and becomes unstable for big ones when the population oscillates around its stationary state. In the second type of dynamics, however, evolutionarily stable strategy is asymptotically stable for any size of a time delay.

description: Europe's bid to improve its competitive advantage is hampered by underutilization of its productive potential, as gleaned from its high unemployment rate, and the dissociation of economic growth and employment, where economic development is no longer accompanied by rise in employment. The Competitiveness Advisory Group addresses these issues in its work program and identifies sectors showing the greatest potential for enhancing competitive edge, among which are infrastructure, trade and investment. It also urges the implementation of key policy programs. The Group's proceedings and the main themes of its first two semi-annual reports (June and December 1995) are discussed. JEL: F00

description: Objective: Radiation therapy treatment planning is a time-consuming, iterative process with potentially high inter-planner variability. Fully automated treatment planning processes could reduce a planner's active treatment planning time and remove inter-planner variability, with the potential to tremendously improve patient turnover and quality of care. In developing fully automated algorithms for treatment planning, we have two main objectives: to produce plans that are 1) Pareto optimal and 2) clinically acceptable. Here, we propose the Pareto optimal projection search (POPS) algorithm, which provides a general framework for directly searching the Pareto front. Methods: Our POPS algorithm is a novel automated planning method that combines two main search processes: 1) gradient-free search in the decision variable space and 2) projection of decision variables to the Pareto front using the bisection method. We demonstrate the performance of POPS by comparing with clinical treatment plans. As one possible quantitative measure of treatment plan quality, we construct a clinical acceptability scoring function (SF) modified from the previously developed general evaluation metric (GEM). Results: On a dataset of 21 prostate cases collected as part of clinical workflow, our proposed POPS algorithm produces Pareto optimal plans that are clinically acceptable in regards to dose conformity, dose homogeneity, and sparing of organs-at-risk. Conclusion: Our proposed POPS algorithm provides a general framework for fully automated treatment planning that achieves clinically acceptable dosimetric quality without requiring active planning from human planners. Significance: Our fully automated POPS algorithm addresses many key limitations of other automated planning approaches, and we anticipate that it will substantially improve treatment planning workflow.

description: Impulse bildet einerseits der Red Bull Ring, der 2011 wieder neu belebt wurde. Andererseits bietet der steirische Bezirk Murtal noch viel mehr, von wunderschönen Wanderausflügen, Radtouren, Skitourengehrouten und vieles mehr. Statistiken zufolge steigen die Tourismusübernächtigungen im Bezirk Murtal stetig an. Die Arbeit befasst sich mit einem Hotel für die Gemeinde St.Marein bei Knittelfeld um einerseits einen Teil des Bedarfs am temporären Wohnen unter anderem wegen der Events am Red Bull Ring abzudecken und anderseits den Ortskern aufzuwerten und das Gemeindeleben zu forcieren. Neben dem temporären Wohnen werden, zusätzlich zu dem reichen Angeboten der sportlichen Betätigung und Erholungsmöglichkeiten in der Natur, sportliche Angebote sowie auch für Entspannung und Erholung auf dem Areal des Hotels angeboten. Auf dem Nachbargrundstück bekommt das Gemeindeamt seinen neuen Standort. Durch die Freiraumgestaltung des Bauplatzes und die Mitgestaltung des Vorplatzes soll eine Verbindung geschaffen werden.
description: In a touristic point of view the Styrian district Murtal has a lot to offer, with beautiful hiking and bicycle tours, skiing facilities and many more. Additionally the presence of the Red Bull Ring has a major impact on reviving the district's social and economic environment, since its reopening in 2011. This trend is also observed in the "area statistics", where the tourism night accommodations rise steadily. The work deals with the design of a Hotel, located in the community St. Marein close to Knittelfeld. It is supposed to cover the need for temporary housing due to additional demand during Red Bull Ring events and upgrade the image of the city center as well as push the communal life. Furthermore the Hotel creates a wide range of sport activities and relaxing opportunities. The town hall settles next to the property. Through the spatial design of building site and the forecourt an optical connection is applied.

description: One dimensional pinning models have been widely studied in the physical and mathematical literature, also in presence of disorder. Roughly speaking, they undergo a transition between a delocalized phase and a localized one. In mathematical terms these models are obtained by modifying the distribution of a discrete renewal process via a Boltzmann factor with an energy that contains only one body potentials. For some more complex models, notably pinning models based on higher dimensional renewals, it has been shown that other phases may be present. We study a generalization of the one dimensional pinning model in which the energy may depend in a nonlinear way on the contact fraction: this class of models contains the circular DNA case considered in the bio-physics literature. We give a full solution of this generalized pinning model in absence of disorder and show that another transition appears. In fact the systems may display up to three different regimes: delocalization, partial localization and full localization. What happens in the partially localized regime can be explained in terms of the "big-jump" phenomenon for sums of heavy tail random variables under conditioning. We then show that disorder completely smears this second transition and we are back to the delocalization versus localization scenario. In fact we show that the disorder, even if arbitrarily weak, is incompatible with the presence of a big-jump.

description: The generation of non-equilibrium electron spin polarization, spin transport, and spin detection are fundamental in many quantum devices. We demonstrate that a lattice of magnetic nanodots enhances the electron spin polarization in monolayer graphene via carrier exchange. We probed the spin polarization through a resistively-detected variant of electron spin resonance (ESR) and observed resonance amplification mediated by the presence of the nanodots. Each nanodot locally injects a surplus of spin-polarized carriers into the graphene, and the ensemble of all "spin hot spots" generates a non-equilibrium electron spin polarization in the graphene layer at macroscopic lengths. This occurs whenever the interdot distance is comparable or smaller than the spin diffusion length.

Impulse control of chaos in the flexible shaft rotating-lifting system of the mono-silicon crystal puller

description: Chaos is shown to occur in the flexible shaft rotating-lifting (FSRL) system of the mono-silicon crystal puller. Chaos is, however, harmful for the quality of mono-silicon crystal production. Therefore, it should be suppressed. Many chaos control methods have been proposed theoretically and some have even been used in applications. For a practical plant displaying harmful chaos, engineers from a specified area usually face with the challenge to identifying chaos and to suppressing it by using a proper method. However, despite of the existing methods, chaos control method selection in the FSRL system is not a trivial task. For example, for the OGY method, if one cannot find a practical adjustable parameter, then the OGY method cannot be applied. An impulsive control method is being proposed which is efficiently able to suppress chaos in the FSRL system. The selection of the control parameters is obtained by using the Melnikov method. Simulation results show the correctness of our theoretical analysis and the effectiveness of the proposed chaos control method.

description: We present the results of observations from the IRAM array of the submm galaxy SMMJ16359+6612 lying at z=2.516 behind the massive cluster A2218. The foreground gravitational lens produces 3 images with a total mag. of 45 of this faint submm galaxy, which has an intrinsic submm flux of f_850mic=0.8mJy placing it below the confusion limit of blank-field surveys. The substantial magnification provides a rare opportunity to probe the nature of a distant sub-mJy submm-selected galaxy, part of the population which produces the bulk of the submm cosmic far-infrared background. Our observations detect the CO(3-2) line in all 3 images, as well as the CO(7-6) line and the dust continuum at 1.3mm for the brightest image. The CO(3-2) velocity profile displays a double-peak profile which is well fit by two Gaussians with FWHM of 220km/s and separated by 280km/s. We estimate the dynamical mass of the system to be ~1.5 10^10 M_sun and an H2 gas mass of 2.6 10^9 M_sun. We identify a spatial offset of ~1'' between the two CO(3-2) velocity components, modeling of which indicates that the offset corresponds to just ~3kpc in projection at z=2.5. The spatial and velocity properties of these two components are closely related to features detected in previously published Halpha spectroscopy. We conclude that this source is likely to be a compact merger of 2 fairly typical Ly-break galaxies with a maximal separation between the two nuclei of ~3kpc. This system is much less luminous and massive than other high-z submm galaxies studied to date, but it bears a close similarity to similarly luminous, dusty starburst resulting from lower-mass mergers in the local Universe.

Nach den bisherigen Analysen gehört der Flughafen Banja Luka zu den 11 strategischen Flughäfen in Südosteuropa, die Potenzial für eine weitere Entwicklung des Verkehrs bieten. Der Flughafen verfügt derzeit über keine Frachtladungseinrichtungen. Das Ziel dieser Arbeit ist sowohl einen Überblick über den aktuellen Status des Flughafens Banja Luka zu bieten - seine Bedeutung für die Umwelt, Möglichkeiten und Potenziale - als auch neue Parameter für die Gestaltung des neuen Terminal-gebäudes mit Nebeninsfrastruktur auzuzeigen. Da es sich bei der Revitalisierung des bestehenden Flughafengeländes um eine komplexe Aufgabe handelt, richtet sich mein Augenmerk auf das touristische Potential der Region. Denn der Tourismus und das Verkehrswesen sind eng miteinander verbundene Zweige. Das Wiederbeleben des einen wertet automatisch auch das andere auf.
description: Banja Luka Airport is a medium-developed international airport, which is located in the northwestern part of the Republika Srpska and offers a very good strategic position. According to previous analyzes of the Airport Banja Luka, it is one of the 11 strategic airports in South East Europe, offering the potential for further development of traffic. The airport has currently no freight cargo facilities. The aim of this work is to give an overview of the current status of the Airport Banja Luka- to describe its importance for the environment, possibilities and potentials as well as to determinate new parameters for design of a new terminal building with additional infrastructure. Since the revitalization of the existing airport field is a complex task, I turn back to the touristical potentials of the area, because transport and tourism represent tightly bound branches. The revival of one branch influences the revival of another one.

description: We explore the role of proximity-induced odd-frequency pairing in the thermoelectricity of a ferromagnet when coupled to a conventional $s$-wave spin-singlet superconductor through a spin-active interface. By varying both the polarization and its direction in the ferromagnet and the interfacial spin-orbit interaction strength, we analyze the behavior of all proximity-induced pair amplitudes in the ferromagnet and their contributions to the thermoelectric coefficients. Based on our results for the Seebeck coefficient, we predict that odd-frequency spin-triplet Cooper pairs are much efficient than the conventional spin-singlet even-frequency pairs in enhancing thermoelectricity of the junction, especially mixed-spin triplet pairing is favorable. Our results on the thermoelectric figure of merit show that ferromagnet/superconductor junctions are very good thermoelectric systems when superconductivity is dominated by odd-frequency pairing.

description: A hegemon-by-committee, or a group of nations playing the role of a dominant financial power, is necessary for the international financial system to withstand crises arising from drastic shifts of funds among national currencies, accompanied by large movements of exchange rates. These wide fluctuations in exchange rates and subsequent financial transactions can trigger a collapse of prices in dollar-denominated financial assets in US financial markets, thus undermining the global economy. With no single nation apparently capable of playing the hegemon, international cooperation is imperative. An important theme of the paper is that allocative efficiency may not be compatible with adequate financial stability efficiency. JEL: F31, G28

description: Before the 1980s, Vietnam was modelled as a centrally-planned economy (CPE) along the same lines as the Soviet economy. During the 1980-88 period a kind of 'modified' planned economy (MPE) developed in which some partial reforms were effected within the CPE framework. These reforms and Vietnam's latest plans and reforms are surveyed. Economic reform measures in 1985 focused on the insignificant monetary overhang problem, which involved 'forced' money holdings by households owing to shortages in consumer goods. At the same time, it failed to address the problem of 'flow' of net domestic credit extended to the government and state-owned enterprises. Confiscatory monetary reform aggravated the situation as it reduced the demand for real balances. Budgetary and credit limits and shifts in asset portfolio choices by the Vietnamese, on the other hand, were responsible for the success of the 1989 reforms. JEL: P26, E52

description: The attempts by a number of countries to partially or totally liberalise their trade on a discriminatory basis have long been documented. Despite the wide spread of the GATT in both geographical and temporal terms, regionalism has never easily co-existed with commercial multilateralism. The Uruguay Round has taken place in a period in which several key countries have radically changed trade policies. In this light, the search for a new balance between the multilateralism de jure and the regionalism de facto practiced by many members of the GATT took on importance as a test of their intentions to continue or not with the existing multilateral order or rather to modify it in a regional sense. This paper reviews the problems of coexistence between regionalism and multilateralism in the international trade order and demonstrates how few concrete conclusions can be drawn from an examination of both the theory and the empirical evidence.

description: Recent constraint logic programming (CLP) languages, such as HAL and Mercury, require type, mode and determinism declarations for predicates. This information allows the generation of efficient target code and the detection of many errors at compile-time. Unfortunately, mode checking in such languages is difficult. One of the main reasons is that, for each predicate mode declaration, the compiler is required to appropriately re-order literals in the predicate's definition. The task is further complicated by the need to handle complex instantiations (which interact with type declarations and higher-order predicates) and automatic initialization of solver variables. Here we define mode checking for strongly typed CLP languages which require reordering of clause body literals. In addition, we show how to handle a simple case of polymorphic modes by using the corresponding polymorphic types.

description: Exotic quantum vacuum phenomena are predicted in cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) systems with ultrastrong light-matter interactions. Their ground states are predicted to be vacuum squeezed states with suppressed quantum fluctuations. The source of such phenomena are antiresonant terms in the Hamiltonian, yet antiresonant interactions are typically negligible compared to resonant interactions in light-matter systems. We report an unusual coupled matter-matter system of magnons that can simulate a unique cavity QED Hamiltonian with coupling strengths that are easily tunable into the ultrastrong coupling regime and with dominant antiresonant terms. We found a novel regime where vacuum Bloch-Siegert shifts, the hallmark of antiresonant interactions, greatly exceed analogous frequency shifts from resonant interactions. Further, we theoretically explored the system's ground state and calculated up to 5.9 dB of quantum fluctuation suppression. These observations demonstrate that magnonic systems provide an ideal platform for simulating exotic quantum vacuum phenomena predicted in ultrastrongly coupled light-matter systems.

description: A great deal of recent attention has been devoted towards the relationship between central bank independence and economic performance. The degree of central bank independence is said to determine cross-country inflation differences. However, several factors have been raised that cast doubts on such a relationship. First, the link between independence and inflation may not be as tight as previously declared. Also, predictive validity tests show that the link does not score favourably. Relevant variables also appear to have been omitted in using central bank independence as the determinant of cross-country inflation differences. This paper investigates the stylised facts regarding central bank independence and inflation performance. The structure of the labor market, the regulatory burden of the central bank and the exchange rate regime are found to be significant determinants as well. JEL: E58

description: Recent studies on superconductivity in NbSe$_2$ have demonstrated a large anisotropy in the superconducting critical field when the material is reduced to a single monolayer. Motivated by this recent discovery, we use density functional theory (DFT) calculations to quantitatively address the superconducting properties of bulk and monolayer NbSe$_2$. We demonstrate that NbSe$_2$ is close to a ferromagnetic instability, and analyze our results in the context of experimental measurements of the spin susceptibility in NbSe$_2$. We show how this magnetic instability, which is pronounced in a single monolayer, can enable sizeable singlet-triplet mixing of the superconducting order parameter, contrary to contemporary considerations of the pairing symmetry in monolayer NbSe$_2$, and discuss approaches as to how this degree of mixing can be addressed quantitatively within our DFT framework. Our calculations also enable a quantitative description of the large anisotropy of the superconducting critical field, using DFT calculations of monolayer NbSe$_2$ in the normal state

description: We apply the technique of reinforcement learning to the control of nonlinear matter waves. In this method, an agent controls the position, strength, and shape of an external Gaussian potential to create and manipulate quantized vortices in a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) trapped in a harmonic potential. The density and velocity distributions of the BEC at each moment obtained by the Gross-Pitaevskii evolution are directly input into a convolutional neural network to determine the next action of the agent. We demonstrate that a stationary single-vortex state can be produced in a two-dimensional system, and a stationary vortex-ring state can be produced in a three-dimensional system.

description: Das Thema dieser Arbeit beleuchtet den Entwurf eines Wohn- und Hotelkomplexes in Lech am Arlberg, der gleichzeitig als Schutzhütte dient. Lech erfreut sich in den Hauptsaisonen über zahlreiche Touristen, wohingegen die Nebensaisonen Großteils ungenutzte Flächen aufweisen. Um dieser Problematik entgegenzuwirken werden Lösungen in einer mobilen Architektur gesucht, die Ansätze aus der Eisenbahnindustrie heranzieht und die einzelnen Komponenten dementsprechend neu interpretiert und einsetzt. Es entsteht eine Gebäudekonfiguration aus einzelnen kompakten Schichten, die sowohl die Addition, als auch die Subtraktion genutzter und ungenutzter Flächen ermöglicht und im Verein ein großzügiges Raumerlebnis bildet. Durch die genormten Achsabstände der Räder kann jede Schicht über die Eisenbahngleise an diverse Standorte transportiert werden und geht somit auf den stetig steigenden Wunsch der globalen Vernetzung ein. Neben dem Thema der energieeffizienten Nutzung der Flächen mittels mobiler Räumlichkeiten, liegt der Fokus insbesondere auch auf dem Einsatz nachhaltiger Rohstoffe und Autarkie und gibt einen Anstoß zu zukunftsorientiertem Denken anpassungsfähiger, nachhaltiger Architektur.
description: This thesis explores the design of a residential and hotel complex in Lech am Arlberg. This complex is designed for hikers and skiers but can also be used as mountain refuge during inclement weather conditions. Lech welcomes a large amount of tourists in the high seasons whereas the low seasons show idle facilities. To counter these unused spaces and to save energy, solutions focus on mobile architecture based on principles found in the railway industry as well as interpreting and using individual components in new ways. This leads to a configuration of individual compact modules, which allow the addition as well as elimination of used and unused spaces and thus create a generous experience of the space. Due to a standardized wheelbase, these modules can be transported via railway lines to different sites and are therefore responsive to the increasing desire for global integration. In addition to the topic of energy-efficient use of spaces, the focus is on renewable resources and self-sufficiency, and should also encourage forward-looking thinking in regards to adaptable and sustainable architecture.

description: Ästhetik als philosophische Disziplin ist untrennbar vom architektonischen Schaffen, da Architektur sich unter anderen an ästhetische Kriterien orientiert und immer auch in ästhetischem Aspekt beurteilt wird. Egal wie man Ästhetik versteht - als allgemeine Theorie der Sinneswahrnehmung, oder als eine philosophisch-soziologische Theorie über das Schöne in Kunst und Design - Architektur findet hier ihren Platz. Deswegen ist erstmal nicht verwunderlich, dass ein Philosoph, der sich mit Themen der Ästhetik beschäftigt, sich auch in Mitten einer architektonischen Aufgabe um die Villa von Margaret Stonborough- Wittgenstein findet und sich in dieser Arbeit für das Halten an strenge ästhetische Kriterien stark einsetzt. Um dieser Strenge näher zu kommen und ihrem Uhrsprung einer Erklärung zu bieten, wird in die Person Ludwig Wittgenstein hineingeschaut, aber auch in sein philosophisches Werk und Auseinandersetzung mit der frühen Moderne in Wien, besonders mit der Architektur Adolf Loos, als ihre Vertreter.
description: Aesthetics as a sub-discipline of philosophy can`t be separated from architectural work, because, among others factors, architecture orients towards aesthetic criteria and is always assessed in an aesthetic sense. No matter how aesthetics is understood- as a general theory of sensual perception or as a socio-philosophical theory about beauty in art and designarchitecture finds its place into this discourse. This is the reason why its not surprising that a Philosopher, whose work also developed around questions of aesthetics, finds himself in the middle of a architectural project concerning the villa of Margaret Stonborough- Wittgenstein and in this work campaigns for strict aesthetic criteria. In order to get closer to his strictness and offer an explanation for it, the arguments in this paper will develop around the person of Ludwig Wittgenstein, but also around his work in philosophy and his interaction with early modern in Vienna, in particular with the architecture of Adolf Loos, as its representative.

description: Diese Arbeit setzt sich mit dem Architekturwettbewerb in der Rathausstraße 1 im ersten Wiener Gemeindebezirk aus dem Jahr 2013 auseinander, welcher die Entwicklung eines Planungsvorschlages für ein zeitgemäßes und nachhaltiges Bürogebäude als Aufgabenstellung definiert. Die Analyse des Bauplatzes führt zu der Erkenntnis einer notwendigen Zurückhaltung des Entwurfsansatzes hinsichtlich der Positionierung, Höhenentwicklung und Formensprache. In den weiteren Schritten der Konzeptfindungsphase werden die Potentiale an diesem Standort untersucht, was eine Weiterentwicklung einzelner Entwurfsparametern mit sich bringt. Diese Arbeit versucht anhand von konkreten Beispielen und konzeptuellen Überlegungen ein funktionsoffenes Gebäude zu generieren, welches sich neben dem ständigen Nutzer auch dem Stadtpublikum auf mehreren Ebenen öffnet. Die Erweiterung des städtischen Freiraums soll sämtlichen Benutzergruppen zusätzliche Flächen zur Verfügung stellen und der Ausübung ihrer Tätigkeiten eine neue Flexibilität verleihen.
description: This work focuses on the 2013 architectural competition in the Rathausstraße 1 in the first district of Vienna. The premise of the competition was to develop a proposal for a modern and sustainable office building. As shown in the analysis the site dictates the parameters of the design not only in terms of positioning and modelling, but also in the later conceptual design phase resulting in the development of individual project parameters. This work uses concrete examples and conceptual considerations to generate a functionally open building, which is not only focused on the permanent user but also open to the city audience on several levels. The expansion of open urban space provides all user groups with additional areas in order to increase their flexibility.

description: In this Letter, we demonstrate that it is possible to form a two-dimensional (2D) silicene-like Si$_5$Ge compound by replacing the Si atoms occupying on-top sites in the planar-like structure of epitaxial silicene on ZrB$_2$(0001) by deposited Ge atoms. For coverages below 1/6 ML, the Ge deposition gives rise to a Si$_{6-x}$Ge$_{x}$ alloy (with $x$ between 0 and 1) in which the on-top sites are randomly occupied by Si or Ge atoms. The progressive increase of the valence band maximum with $x$ observed experimentally originates from a selective charge transfer from Ge atoms to Si atoms. These achievements provide evidence for the possibility of engineering the bandgap in 2D SiGe alloys in a way that is similar for their bulk counterpart.

description: We present a rectifying manganite-titanate heterojunction exhibiting a magnetic field tunable depletion layer. This creates a large positive magnetocapacitance, a direct measure of the field-induced reduction of the effective depletion width across the junction. Furthermore, the reduction of the junction barrier shifts the forward bias characteristics, giving exponentially-enhanced differential magnetoresistance, occurring despite the absence of a spin filter. These results provide a unique probe of a Mott insulator/band insulator interface, and further suggest new electronic devices incorporating the magnetic field sensitivity of these strongly correlated electron materials.
