description: Die Automobilbranche befindet sich im Wandel hin zu einem, auf Dienstleistungen basierenden Geschäftsmodell, das mit einigen Hürden verbunden ist. Gleichzeitig stehen Unternehmen vor der Herausforderung, Customer Engagement zu etablieren. Die Verbindung dieser beiden Faktoren führt zur Zielsetzung dieser Arbeit, die Rolle von Customer Engagement auf den Mobility-as-a-Service-Sektor auszumachen. Auf die Literatur aufbauend wurden halbstrukturierte Interviews, mit 10 Probandinnen und Probanden aus der derzeitigen Zielgruppe – den Early-Adopters – durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass den bisher bekannten Burdens-of-Access eine weitere Hürde bezüglich zukünftiger Folgen der Nutzung einer solchen Dienstleistung hinzugefügt werden kann. Die bisher bekannten Barrieren wurden bestätigt, des Weiteren konnte die Rolle von Customer Engagement auf eben diese erfasst werden. Neben Word-of-Mouth, der Einführung einer App und der Relevanz von Kundenfeedback ist ein professioneller Kundenservice, für die Abschwächung der Hürden, von großer Bedeutung. Die Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit liefern einen Ansatz, wie Unternehmen erfolgreich eine Customer-Engagement-Strategie auf das aufstrebende Geschäftsmodell anwenden können. Weitere Forschung bezüglich der neu erwähnten Hürde sowie eine quantitative Untersuchung der Ergebnisse ist notwendig.
description: The automotive industry is undergoing a transformation to a service-based business model, which comes with some burdens. At the same time, companies are facing the challenge of establishing Customer Engagement. The combination of these two factors leads this thesis to the goal of identifying the role of Customer Engagement on the Mobility-as-a-Service-Sector. Supported by the literature, semi-structured interviews, with 10 test persons from the current target group – the early adopters – were conducted. The results show that another barrier regarding future consequences of using a service can be added to the previously known burdens-of-access. The existing barriers were confirmed and the role of customer engagement on them could be captured. Besides word-of-mouth, the introduction of an app and the relevance of customer feedback, a professional customer service, is of great importance for the mitigation of the barriers. The findings of this paper provide an approach on how companies can successfully apply a customer engagement strategy to the emerging business model. Further research regarding the newly mentioned barrier as well as a quantitative study of the results is needed.

description: Magnetite has attracted increasing attention in recent years due to its promising and diverse applications in biomedicine. Theoretical modelling can play an important role in understanding magnetite-based nanomaterials at the atomic scale for a deeper insight into the experimental observations. However, calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) are too costly for realistically large models of magnetite nanoparticles. Classical force field methods are very fast but lack of precision and of the description of electronic effects. Therefore, a cheap and efficient quantum mechanical simulation method with comparable accuracy than DFT is highly desired. Here, a less computational demanding DFT-based method, i.e. self-consistent charge density functional tight-binding (SCC-DFTB), is adopted to investigate magnetite bulk and low-index (001) surface with newly proposed parameters for Fe-O interactions. We report that SCC-DFTB with on-site Coulomb correction provides results in quantitatively comparable agreement with those obtained by DFT+U and hybrid functional methods. Therefore, SCC-DFTB is valued as an efficient and reliable method for the description magnetite. This assessment will promote SCC-DFTB computational studies on magnetite-based nanostructures that attract increasing attention for medical applications.

description: The solar neutrino data are analyzed in a frequentist framework, using the Crow-Gardner and Feldman-Cousins prescriptions for the construction of confidence regions. Including in the fit only the total rates measured by the various experiments, both methods give results similar to the commonly used Delta chi^2-cut approximation. When fitting the full data set, the Delta chi^2-cut still gives a good approximation of the Feldman-Cousins regions. However, a careful statistical analysis significantly reduces the goodness-of-fit of the SMA and LOW solutions. In the addenda we discuss the implications of the latest KamLAND, SNO and SK data.

description: An ultralight scalar field is one of the dark matter candidates. If it couples with Standard Model particles, it oscillates mirrors in gravitational-wave detectors and generates detectable signals. We study the spectra of the signals taking into account the motion of the detectors due to the Earth's rotation/the detectors' orbital motion around the Sun and formulate a suitable data-analysis method to detect it. We find that our method can improve the existing constraints given by fifth-force experiments on one of the scalar field's coupling constants by a factor of $\sim 30$, $\sim 100$ and $\sim 350$ for $m_ϕ= 2 \times 10^{-17}~\mathrm{eV},~10^{-14}~\mathrm{eV}$ and $10^{-12}~\mathrm{eV}$ respectively, where $m_ϕ$ is the scalar field's mass. Our study demonstrates that experiments with gravitational-wave detectors play a complementary role to that Equivalence Principle tests do.

description: Construct a Her-2 nanobody modified nanoplatform as a versatile carrier of cisplatin and evaluate its anti-tumour effects. Size, morphology, cellular uptake, in vitro release, cell viability, bio-distribution and antitumor efficacy were respectively measured by dynamic light scattering, transmission electron microscopy, confocal microscopy, HPLC, MTT assay, ICP-Mass and tumour volume. Nb-CDDP NPs was prepared with average diameter 60.4 ± 8.4 nm, PDI 0.2 ± 0.02, Zeta potential −35.74 mV, entrapment efficiency 89.5%±0.8% and drug loading 28.7%±1.3% (w/w). From which cisplatin could release more rapidly in acidic solution. NPs could be easily phagocytised and exhibited stronger cytotoxic effect in HCT-116 cells with IC50 1.46 ± 0.019 μg/mL. The concentration of Nb-CDDP NPs in tumour and its inhibition ratio on tumour volume were both higher than without Nb modification, with hardly any influence on body weight. This cisplatin nanoplatform exhibits exceptional properties and high targeting anti-tumour efficacy in colon cancer cells and mice, which maybe provide a promising strategy for precise chemotherapy.

description: A model of localized classical electrons coupled to lattice degrees of freedom and, via the Coulomb interaction, to each other, has been studied to gain insight into the charge and orbital ordering observed in lightly doped manganese perovskites. Expressions are obtained for the minimum energy and ionic displacements caused by given hole and electron orbital configurations. The expressions are analyzed for several hole configurations, including that experimentally observed by Yamada et al. in La_{7/8}Sr_{1/8}MnO_3. We find that, although the preferred charge and orbital ordering depend sensitively on parameters, there are ranges of the parameters in which the experimentally observed hole configuration has the lowest energy. For these parameter values we also find that the energy differences between different hole configurations are on the order of the observed charge ordering transition temperature. The effects of additional strains are also studied. Some results for La_{1/2}Ca_{1/2}MnO_3 are presented, although our model may not adequately describe this material because the high temperature phase is metallic.

description: The present diploma thesis deals with the solar heating of spaces with thermal seasonal storage. A system has been modeled at the program TRNSYS and it is examined parametrically. Initially, all the sources of energy are presented, conventional and renewable, with emphasis in the solar energy. In the next chapter basic significances are presented with regard to the solar radiation. Follows the description of solar systems, such as thermosyphonic, combi, solar air conditioning and systems with seasonal storage. Finally, there is a presentation of the program and the models that were used in the simulations. In the second part, a system of solar heating with seasonal storage in the region of Athens is studied. The system is examined parametrically by modifying the surface of the solar collectors, the volume of the tank and heat load of the residence. The results are shown with diagrams and tables and the relative conclusions are made.

description: Digital image sensors are ubiquitous in astronomical instrumentation and it is well known that they suffer from issues that must be corrected for data to be scientifically useful. I present discussion on errors resulting from digitization and characterization of nonlinearity and ADC errors of the PhotonFocus MV-D1024E cameras selected for the K-Coronagraph of the Coronal Solar Magnetism Observatory. I derive an analytic expression for quantization errors. The MV-D1024E camera has adequate bit depth for which quantization error is not an issue. I show that this is not the case for all cameras, particularly those with deep wells and low read noise. The impact of nonlinearity and ADC errors on science observations of the K-Coronagraph is analyzed using a simplified telescope model. Errors caused by the camera ADCs result in systematic errors in the measurement of the polarimetric signal of several times $10^{-9}~B_\odot$, which is about an order of magnitude above the desired sensitivity. I demonstrate a method for post-facto data correction using a lookup table and derive parameters from camera characterization measurements that were made with a lab setup. Nonlinearity is traditionally addressed with a global correction. I show through analysis of calibration data that for the MV-D1024E this correction leaves residual systematic errors after dark and gain correction of up to 1% of the signal. I demonstrate that a pixel-wise correction of nonlinearity reduces the errors to below 0.1%. These corrections are necessary for the K-Coronagraph data products to meet the science requirements. They have been implemented in the instrument data acquisition system and data reduction pipeline. While no other instruments besides the K-Coronagraph or cameras besides the MV-D1024E are discussed here, the results are illustrative for all instruments and cameras.

description: We compare the fully nonlinear and perturbative evolution of nonrotating black holes with odd-parity distortions utilizing the perturbative results to interpret the nonlinear results. This introduction of the second polarization (odd-parity) mode of the system, and the systematic use of combined techniques brings us closer to the goal of studying more complicated systems like distorted, rotating black holes, such as those formed in the final inspiral stage of two black holes. The nonlinear evolutions are performed with the 3D parallel code for Numerical Relativity, {Cactus}, and an independent axisymmetric code, {Magor}. The linearized calculation is performed in two ways: (a) We treat the system as a metric perturbation on Schwarzschild, using the Regge-Wheeler equation to obtain the waveforms produced. (b) We treat the system as a curvature perturbation of a Kerr black hole (but here restricted to the case of vanishing rotation parameter a) and evolve it with the Teukolsky equation The comparisons of the waveforms obtained show an excellent agreement in all cases.

Muon Anomalous Magnetic Moment and Leptoquark Solutions

description: The recent measurement on the muon anomalous magnetic moment $a_μ$ shows a $2.6σ$ deviation from the standard model value. We show that it puts an interesting bound on the mass of the second generation leptoquarks. To account for the data the leptoquark must have both the left- and right-handed couplings to the muon. Assuming that the couplings have electromagnetic strength, the mass is restricted in the range $0.7 {\rm TeV} < M_{\rm LQ} < 2.2$ TeV at 95% C.L. We also discuss constraints coming from other low energy and high energy experiments. If the first-second-generation universality is assumed, constraints come from the atomic parity violation and charged-current universality. We show that coexistence with other leptoquarks can satisfy these additional constraints and at the same time do not affect the $a_μ$.
description: References added. The part on the atomic-parity violation is re-analyzed with the updated data. A discussion on the radiative correction to muon mass is addressed

Dimensional Crossovers in the Doped Ladder System: Spin Gap, Superconductivity and Interladder Coherent Band Motion

description: Based on the perturbative renormalization group (PRG) approach, we have studied dimensional crossovers in Hubbard ladders coupled via weak interladder one-particle hopping, $t_{\perp}$. We found that the one-particle crossover is strongly suppressed through growth of the intraladder scattering processes which lead the isolated Hubbard ladder system toward the spin gap metal (SGM) phase. Consequently when $t_{\perp}$ sets in, there exists, for any finite intraladder Hubbard repulsion, $U>0$, the region where the two-particle crossover dominates the one-particle crossover and consequently the d-wave superconducting transition, which is regarded as a bipolaron condensation, occurs. By solving the scaling equations for the interladder one-particle and two-particle hopping amplitudes, we give phase diagrams of the system with respect to $U$, $t_{\perp0}$ (initial value of $t_{\perp}$) and the temperature, $T$. We compared the above dimensional crossovers with those in a weakly coupled chain system, clarifying the difference between them.

description: In this work we study white dwarfs where $30\,000\,\text{K} {>} \mathrm{T}_{\rm{eff}} {>} 5\,000\,\text{K}$ to compare the differences in the cooling of DAs and non-DAs and their formation channels. Our final sample is composed by nearly $13\,000$ DAs and more than $3\,000$ non-DAs that are simultaneously in the SDSS DR12 spectroscopic database and in the \textit{Gaia} survey DR2. We present the mass distribution for DAs, DBs and DCs, where it is found that the DCs are ${\sim}0.15\,\mathrm{M}_\odot$ more massive than DAs and DBs on average. Also we present the photometric effective temperature distribution for each spectral type and the distance distribution for DAs and non-DAs. In addition, we study the ratio of non-DAs to DAs as a function of effective temperature. We find that this ratio is around ${\sim}0.075$ for effective temperature above ${\sim}22\,000\,\text{K}$ and increases by a factor of five for effective temperature cooler than $15\,000\,\text{K}$. If we assume that the increase of non-DA stars between ${\sim}22\,000\,\text{K}$ to ${\sim}15\,000\,\text{K}$ is due to convective dilution, $14{\pm}3$ per cent of the DAs should turn into non-DAs to explain the observed ratio. Our determination of the mass distribution of DCs also agrees with the theory that convective dilution and mixing are more likely to occur in massive white dwarfs, which supports evolutionary models and observations suggesting that higher mass white dwarfs have thinner hydrogen layers.

description: This doctoral research project by art practice examines a former site of exclusion, a nineteenth-century county pauper lunatic asylum, in particular its methods of containment and coercion. It involves an initial unearthing of narratives relating to the site's histories, including its recent redevelopment as a gated residential community, and consideration of other similar institutional settings. An exploration is subsequently developed through appropriation and interrogation of spatial and durational processes involved in selected mechanisms of control, and the impact of their repetition on those present, constituting the core of this practice-based research, and evidenced in the artworks arising from the enquiry. These are described and considered through a text in which methods and approaches are articulated and reflected upon. Through art practice and related theoretical research the concepts of trace, boundary and surface contribute to this engagement with site, i. e. trace as: movement; association; memory; unconscious material; and inhabitation, provides one trajectory, whilst exclusion - predicated on the existence of boundaries, whether physical, perceived or psychological - provides another, including the ways in which boundaries come into being, function and are transgressed. Surfaces and surfacing - as symptom and meaning - provide a further interlinking theme for the research.

description: Obwohl die Präsenz von Markenaktivismus und die damit einhergehenden polarisierenden Diskussionen in den sozialen Medien, einschließlich negativer elektronischer Mundpropaganda, zunehmen, ist nur wenig über die zugrundeliegenden Absichten der Konsument*innen bekannt. Ausgehend von der Literatur zu Markenaktivismus und elektronischem Word-of-Mouth untersucht diese Studie die negativen Intentionen anhand einer qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse von 2.627 YouTube-Kommentaren zu drei Kampagnen. Dabei legt die Forschung nahe, dass soziale Interaktion, mangelnde Markenauthentizität, Fehlinterpretation der Botschaft, persönliche Überzeugungen und die wahrgenommene Einschränkung der Meinungsfreiheit Faktoren sind, die negative Mundpropaganda-Absichten gegenüber Markenaktivismus in sozialen Medien beeinflussen. Damit ergänzt die Studie die bisher begrenzte Markenaktivismusforschung aus Sicht der Konsument*innen und trägt zu einem besseren Verständnis negativer elektronischer Word-of-Mouth-Absichten bei.
description: Despite growing attention to brand activism and the divergent consumer reactions including highly polarized discussions on social media that result in negative electronic word-of-mouth, little is known about the underlying consumer intentions. Thus, drawing from the literature of brand activism and electronic word-of-mouth intentions this study investigates dominant themes underlying consumer comments towards brand activism campaigns. Based on a qualitative content analysis of 2,627 YouTube comments across three brand activism campaigns, the study suggests social interaction, lack of brand authenticity, misinterpretation of the message, personal beliefs, and perceived limitation of free speech as factors influencing negative electronic word-ofmouth intentions towards brand activism on social media. Thereby, the study adds to the so far limited literature of brand activism research from the consumer point of view and contributes to a better understanding of negative electronic word-of-mouth intentions.

We find that for small enough r_H, this mass is negative as in the case of the regular global monopoles, but that for large enough r_H the mass becomes positive encountering an intermediate value for which we have a Black Hole with zero ADM mass.

A Review of Recent Observations of Galactic Winds Driven by Star Formation

description: Galaxy-scale outflows of gas, or galactic winds (GWs), driven by energy from star formation are a pivotal mechanism for regulation of star formation in the current model of galaxy evolution. Observations of this phenomenon have proliferated through the wide application of old techniques on large samples of galaxies, the development of new methods, and advances in telescopes and instrumentation. I review the diverse portfolio of direct observations of stellar GWs since 2010. Maturing measurements of the ionized and neutral gas properties of nearby winds have been joined by exciting new probes of molecular gas and dust. Low-$z$ techniques have been newly applied in large numbers at high $z$. The explosion of optical and near-infrared 3D imaging spectroscopy has revealed the complex, multiphase structure of nearby GWs. These observations point to stellar GWs being a common feature of rapidly star-forming galaxies throughout at least the second half of cosmic history, and suggest that scaling relationships between outflow and galaxy properties persist over this period. The simple model of a modest-velocity, biconical flow of multiphase gas and dust perpendicular to galaxy disks continues to be a robust descriptor of these flows.

description: Der Fokus dieser Studie bezieht sich auf akustische Schwierigkeiten und Mängel geeigneter Tongestaltung im interaktiven Theater „Narrenschloss“ für Kinder und Jugendliche in Wien, Österreich.Die Studie kann als eine Neugestaltung des Raumes- beziehungsweise als eine Neugestaltung des akustischen Ambientes eines künstlerischen Raumes beschrieben werden. Das Ziel ist es, Defizite der akustischen Umgebung aufzuzeigen, in der das Publikum Künstler und Schauspieler während der Vorführung richtig hören soll. Das Fallbeispiel zeigt das Endergebnis in Form eines Vorschlages für die Installation geeigneter akustischer Materialien und Elemente, die nötig sind, um eine Gesamtverbesserung der Klangdeformationen in der akustischen Umgebung des Theatersaales zu erreichen.Die Studie bietet eine Idee für die Raumsanierung und Raumgestaltung, um die Bedürfnisse der Kinder bestmöglich zu befriedigen. Sie basiert sowohl auf einer wissenschaftlichen Betrachtungsweise als auch auf pragmatischen Lösungsansätzen, die vom Theaterdirektor diskutiert und zugelassen wurden. Diese Masterarbeit beschreibt die akustische Nachrüstung des Theatersaales – interaktiven Theater „Narrenschloss“ für Kinder und Jugendliche.
description: The focus of the study is concentrated towards acoustical difficulties and lack of proper sound design in the main hall of the improvisatory children and youngsters ́ interactive theatre “Narrenschloss” in Vienna, Austria. The study can be defined as a redesign of space with an agenda to improve sound ambient. The goal is to reveal and improve an acoustical deficit of the improvised theater hall. Young actors and artists though visual acts and performance must be properly heard by an audience as the key factor. This case study concludes with a proposal to improve the sound distorting surrounding by adding adequate acoustical elements and materials within.This study is offering an idea how to best deal with refurbishing and redesigning of given space to fit the needs of performers. It is based on scientific approach, and also on pragmatic solutions, discussed and approved by the managing director of the theatre. This master thesis describes the acoustical retrofit of the improvised youth theater hall “Narrenschloss”.

description: In present study, multi-target and multi-pathway mechanisms of Jasminum lanceolarium Roxb (JL) on primary dysmenorrhea (PDM) treatment were predicted by the approach of network pharmacology and molecular docking, leading to the obtaining of 22 predicted targets for 69 compounds in JL. The Compound-Target analysis displayed intimate association among targets and compounds. Meanwhile, the Compound-Target-Target revealed PTGS2, OPRD1 and NOS3 were the key targets with intensive interaction. The Compound-Target-Pathway network indicated these pathways were closely related to hormone regulation, central analgesia, spasmolysis and inflammation. The anti-inflammation pathways might be the key mechanism of JL for the treatment of PDM based on KEGG pathway enrichment analysis and pharmacological experiment, and 10-hydroxyoleoside dimethyl ester might be a promising leading compound due to its good molecular docking scores and previous experimental evaluation.
The Edwards Aquifer Water Wars: The Final Chapter?

description: On December 28, 2011, the Edwards Aquifer Authority’s Board of Directors approved the recommendations of the Edwards Aquifer Recovery Implementation Program with respect to a historic Habitat Conservation Plan. The Habitat Conservation Plan could resolve decades of acrimonious rancor and litigation over the use of the Edwards Aquifer. It provides the protection required by the federal Endangered Species Act for 8 listed species stemming from the use of the Edwards Aquifer and associated Comal and San Marcos springs while recognizing the region’s ever-growing need for water. The plan was developed by a diverse group of stakeholders through a consensus-based process and submitted to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service on January 5, 2012, in support of the Edwards Aquifer Recovery Implementation Program’s application for an Incidental Take Permit. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service noticed the availability of the Draft Environmental Impact Statement for public comment and conducted 7 public meetings to receive public comment. The public comment period closed on October 18, 2012. On February 15, 2013, the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service issued its Record of Decision approving the issuance of the Incidental Take Permit and the Habitat Conservation Plan. This paper discusses the history of the dispute over the use of the aquifer, previous attempts to resolve the dispute, the strategic plan for protecting the aquifer, and the decision-making process used to develop the plan.

description: Στη συγκεκριμένη διπλωματική εργασία επιχειρείται να δοθεί ένας σχεδιασμός σε ολόκληρο το αρχαιολογικό πάρκο της Κ. Πάφου με τη μορφή στρατηγικού σχεδίου (masterplan) και με βάση αυτό, σχεδιάζεται το Νέο Αρχαιολογικό Μουσείο για το συγκεκριμένο πάρκο. Η κεντρική συνθετική ιδέα στηρίζεται σε μια εγκάρσια πορεία η οποία έχει αφετηρία την πόλη, διασχίζει το πάρκο και καταλήγει στη θάλασσα με μια απόληξη σε μορφή μπαλκονιού. Πάνω σε αυτή την εγκάρσια πορεία (ροή), τοποθετείται το Νέο Αρχαιολογικό Μουσείο του χώρου το οποίο ακολουθεί την γραμμικότητα της ροής. Το μουσείο στηρίζεται πάνω σε δύο προδιαγραφές. Η πρώτη είναι ότι πρέπει να ίπταται ώστε να μπορέσει να σεβαστεί οποιαδήποτε καινούρια ευρήματα είναι πιθανόν να βρεθούν κάτω από αυτό. Η δεύτερη έχει να κάνει με τη σχέση του κτιρίου σε σχέση με την κλίμακα της πόλης. Επειδή πρόκειται για ένα πολύ μεγάλο κτίριο, περίπου 6000 τ.μ., εφαρμόζεται η τεχνική της ρηγμάτωσης μέσα στην ροή, εκμεταλλευόμενος την υψομετρική διαφορά που δημιουργεί ένας λόφος ο οποίος βρίσκεται μέσα στο αρχαιολογικό πάρκο. Έτσι το κτίριο ίπταται, αλλά την ίδια ώρα κρύβεται μέσα σε ένα ρήγμα ώστε να μπορεί να συνδιαλέγεται αρμονικά με την πόλη και το αρχαιολογικό πάρκο.
description: The diploma thesis project tries to redesign the archaeological park of Kato Paphos at Cyprus as a masterplan and designs also the New Archaeological Museum for the park, based on the masterplan. The main idea is based on a transverse direction which begins from the town, goes across the park and finishes near to the limits of the sea. The New Archaeological Museum is placed on this transverse path (flow) and follows its linearity. The museum relies on two specifications. The first one is that it must be soaring so it can be able to face cases of new findings under it. The second is the relation of the building comparing to the scale of the building environment of town. The building program requires a huge museum close to 6000 sq.m. In this case it is applied the technique of a rift into the flow, taking advantage of the height difference created by a hill which is located inside the archaeological park. So the same time, the building can "fly" while it can be hidden in a rift and can converse in harmony with the city and the archaeological park.

description: We test the impact of the ATLAS and CMS multi-lepton searches performed at the LHC with 8 as well as 13 TeV center-of-mass energy (using only the pre-2018 results) on the chargino and neutralino sector of the NMSSM. Our purpose consists in analyzing the actual reach of these searches for a full model and in emphasizing effects beyond the MSSM that affect the performance of current (MSSM-inspired) electroweakino searches. To this end, we consider several scenarios characterizing specific features of the NMSSM electroweakino sector. We then perform a detailed collider study, generating Monte-Carlo events through Pythia and testing against current LHC constraints implemented in the public tool CheckMATE. We find e.g. that SUSY decay chains involving intermediate singlino or Higgs-singlet states can modify the naive MSSM-like picture of the constraints by inducing final-states with softer or less-easily identifiable SM particles -- reversely, a compressed configuration with singlino NLSP occasionally induces final states that are rich with photons, which could provide complementary search channels.

Quantum Mechanical Carrier of the Imprints of Gravitation
Creators: name: Gerlach, Ulrich H.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1999
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We exhibit a purely quantum mechanical carrier of the imprints of gravitation by identifying for a relativistic system a property which (i) is independent of its mass and (ii) expresses the Poincare invariance of spacetime in the absence of gravitation. This carrier consists of the phase and amplitude correlations of waves in oppositely accelerating frames. These correlations are expressed as a Klein-Gordon-equation-determined vector field whose components are the ``Planckian power'' and the ``r.m.s. thermal fluctuation'' spectra. The imprints themselves are deviations away from this vector field.

description: Four new prenylflavonol glycosides (1–4) along with two known analogues (5–6) were isolated from the leaves of Cyclocarya paliurus for the first time. The structures of these compounds were characterized by comprehensive analysis of 1 D, 2 D NMR, HRESIMS, UV data and enzymatic hydrolysis. In bioassays, compounds 1–4 were evaluated for inhibitory effects on xanthine oxidase (XOD) and effects on the inhibition of nitric oxide (NO) production in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced RAW264.7 cells. Moreover, compounds 1 and 2 showed outstanding XOD inhibitions with IC50 values of 18.16 ± 3.91 and 37.65 ± 5.67 µM, and exhibited inhibitions against LPS-induced NO production with IC50 values of 80.50 ± 3.09 and 82.28 ± 2.87 µM.

description: Converting source or unit test code to English has been shown to improve the maintainability, understandability, and analysis of software and tests. Code summarizers identify important statements in the source/tests and convert them to easily understood English sentences using static analysis and NLP techniques. However, current test summarization approaches handle only a subset of the variation and customization allowed in the JUnit assert API (a critical component of test cases) which may affect the accuracy of conversions. In this paper, we present our work towards improving JUnit test summarization with a detailed process for converting a total of 45 unique JUnit assertions to English, including 37 previously-unhandled variations of the assertThat method. This process has also been implemented and released as the AssertConvert tool. Initial evaluations have shown that this tool generates English conversions that accurately represent a wide variety of assertion statements which could be used for code summarization or other NLP analyses.
