Angesichts einer begrenzten Deponiekapazität der Erde und einer zunehmenden Kritikalität von Ressourcen und Lieferketten gewinnt die Kreislaufführung der Stoffflüsse zentrale Bedeutung. Der Abfall wird zum Wertstoff. Kenntnisse über seine stoffliche Zusammensetzung werden zum zentralen...

This study explores the contrasting impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on various industries in Australia. Considering all daily announced information, we analyzed the diverse impacts of COVID-19 on the sectoral stock returns from 26 January to 20 July 2020. Sixteen out of twenty examined stock...

Most recent research on flywheel rotors has focused on high-speed composite rotors as the storage element of the flywheel energy storage system (FESS). Literature research indicates that this is primarily due to the high specific energy of composites compared to metals. However, a quantitative...

Composite nonwoven materials such as polypropylene are widely used for medical purposes due to their unique properties. During the production process, polymer fibers are created using multiple extruders; the material is formed from a web of polypropylene fibers bonded together by cooling and...

There is substantial within-industry variation, even within industries that use and produce homogeneous inputs and outputs, in the prices that plants pay for their material inputs. I explore, using plant-level data from the U.S. Census Bureau, the consequences and sources of this variation in...

There is substantial within-industry variation in the prices that plants pay for their material inputs. Using plant-level data from the U.S. Census Bureau, I explore the consequences and sources of this variation in materials prices. For a sample of industries with relatively homogeneous...

In this article the authors provide a quantitative definition of evolutionary materials using some different parameters. Attention has been paid about this question, from a technical, commercial and political point of view, but quantitative parameters have never been utilized. Our proposal,...

Nanomaterials are seen as a key technology for the 21st Century, and much is expected of them in terms of innovation and economic growth. They could open the way to many radically new applications, which would form the basis of innovative products. In this context, it seems all the more...

We present the Publication Platform, a component of the PrestoSpace1 project, which provides retrieval and browsing functionalities of enriched audio-visual material. The Prestospace Factory is a system for enriching audio-visual documents in order to provide automated content and semantic...

"Featuring a premiere cast of the leading photovoltaic scientists from around the globe, this book addresses the fundamental challenges in the field and examines the basic fundamental limitation of photovoltaic conversion"--Provided by publisher.

Das erfolgreiche Konzept des Technik-Forums an der Hochschule Pforzheim kann mit der diesjährigen 5. Ausgabe das erste kleine Jubiläum feiern. Auf den seit dem Jahr 2000 jährlich stattfindenden Technik-Foren werden die von der Max- und Erni-Bühler-Stiftung geförderten und finanzierten...

Die Industrie ist ständig bestrebt, die Materialkosten von Produkten und den Materialeinsatz der Produktion zu senken. Welche gesamtwirtschaftlichen Effekte sind von einzelbetrieblich rentablen Materialeinsparungen zu erwarten? Unter welchen Bedingungen entstehen neue Arbeitsplätze?

Das ifo Institut untersuchte im Auftrag der Bundesanstalt für Landwirtschaft und Ernährung (BLE) die Besteuerung bestimmter Produktionsmittel in ausgewählten EU-Mitgliedstaaten. Neben einem steuerrechtlichen Teil, in dem die unterschiedlichen Regelungen in den einzelnen Ländern dargelegt...
