The Pleasures and Horrors of Eating: The Cultural History of Eating in Anglophone Literature
(2010)Browsing through books and TV channels we find people pre-occupied with eating, cooking and competing with chefs. Eating and food in today’s media have become a form of entertainment and art. A survey of literary history ... -
The Role of Cognitive and Motivational Processes in Food-Cue Reactivity: Evidence from Behavioural and Electrophysiological Investigations
(2022-10-14)Overeating triggered by food cues is assumed to contribute to the rising numbers of overweight and obesity in obesogenic environments. Thus, food-cue reactivity has become a growing research topic. This thesis aims to ... -
The role of the NLRP3 inflammasome in microglial senescence in tauopathies
(2024-03-12)Background: Tauopathies including Alzheimer’s Disease and Frontotemporal Dementia are neurodegenerative disorders characterized by abnormal tau accumulation. Senescent cells, which present with a potentially ... -
The Significance of Geopolitical Issues for Internal Development and Intervention in Mountainous Areas of Crossroads Asia
(2013-01)This working paper illustrates the process of territorial transformation in time and space. From the period of Silk Road networks to imperial designs for spatial control in Crossroads Asia, external interests for local and ... -
The Signing of the Rome Treaties 65 Years Ago: Origins, Provisions and Effects
(2022)Die Römischen Verträge bildeten die Grundlage für eine jahrzehntelange westeuropäische Einigungsgeschichte. Ihre Entstehung basierte auf einem Kompromiss zwischen Frankreich und der Bundesrepublik in der Begründung einer ... -
The social priorities in unsustainable development: An empirical approach
(2023-01-31)From the late 1980s onwards, a generally accepted conception of sustainable development as a balance between the social system, economic system and biophysical environment has emerged and serves as an underpinning for ... -
The Spanish presidency: Buying more than it can choose?
(2002)The Spanish 2002 Presidency of the European Union set off on January, the 1st. During the six months of this Presidency, the Spanish Government attempted to harmonize its interest with the EU agenda. The EU ... -
The Struggle for Women Empowerment Through Education: in the novels Second Class Citizen (1974) by Buchi Emecheta and Das verborgene Wort (2001) by Ulla Hahn
(2020-07-01)In many cultures, women have always been looked down on. Women are subjected to all kinds of violence, such as rape, forced marriage, forced identity, dependence , and a lack of freedom of expression, giving rise to the ... -
The Term “Lima Bean Vessel” in the Classic Mayan Lexicon
(2018-12-10)This research note, in sum, has proven that the Classic Maya used bowls in which beans were prepared and probably served as food, and designated some ceramics for this purpose with glyphic tags. With the identification of ... -
The Transient Radio Sky: Pulsars and Fast Radio Bursts
(2021-09-17)This thesis focuses on targeted searches of two radio transients associated with neutron stars (NS): Pulsars and Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs), and the study of their properties over different timescales. Pulsars emit beams of ... -
The Transition Steps Needed to Transform Our Food Systems: Food Systems Summit Brief Prepared by Research Partners of the Scientific Group for the Food Systems Summit April 26, 2021
(2021-04-26)Today’s food systems are asked to nourish the world’s growing population in ways that do no harm to either human or planetary health. However, the growing problems facing food systems now amount to a two-fold crisis. ... -
Theodor W. Adornos Theorie des Naturschönen
(2017-09-21)Diese Arbeit unternimmt eine systematische Rekonstruktion der Adornoschen Theorie des Naturschönen. Bei Adorno spielt das Thema vom Naturschönen eine zentrale Rolle. Das heißt, sein Begriff des Naturschönen steht im ... -
Theoretical Analysis of Hierarchical Clustering and the Shadow Vertex Algorithm
(2020-05-05)Agglomerative clustering (AC) is a very popular greedy method for computing hierarchical clusterings in practice, yet its theoretical properties have been studied relatively little. We consider AC with respect to the most ... -
Theoretical and Practical Aspects of Finite Closure Systems for Mining and Learning
(2023-10-04)This thesis investigates the potential and limitations of different adaptations of half-space separations in ordinary Euclidean spaces, one of the most popular paradigms in machine learning, to abstract finite closure ... -
Theoretical Aspects of Cosmic Shear and its Ability to constrain Cosmological Parameters
(2009-03-13)In the last decade weak gravitational lensing by the large-scale structure of the Universe, also called cosmic shear, has become an important tool to constrain cosmological parameters. Despite this success there remain ... -
Theoretical Interpretation of Experimental Data from Direct Dark Matter Detection
(2007)Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) are one of the leading candidates for Dark Matter. Currently, the most promising method to detect many difeerent WIMP candidates is the direct detection of the recoil energy ... -
Theoretical methods for studying charge and spin separation in excited states of large molecules and condensed phase
(2018-02-15)In recent years the GW/BSE approach as a sophisticated many-body method gained considerable attention for ab-initio calculations of a range of properties in finite and infinite systems. For instance, several benchmarks ... -
Theoretical Modeling of Vibrational Spectra in the Liquid Phase
(2016-05-10)In this thesis, the theoretical modeling of vibrational spectra in the liquid phase by ab initio molecular dynamics simulations is discussed. All presented algorithms are implemented in the open-source trajectory analysis ... -
Theoretical Modeling of Water and Aqueous Systems
(2018-07-09)Thermodynamic and kinetic properties of liquid water and a variety of aqueous systems were investigated by means of theoretical methods. Focus was set on the prediction of mixing-induced changes in thermodynamic potentials, ... -
Theoretical Study of C-H Bond Activation by Mononuclear and Dinuclear High-Valent Iron Complexes
(2012-10-24)The C-H bond activation by high-valent iron complexes have been investigated into detail using density functional theory (DFT). The first part of the present PhD thesis concerns with the reaction mechanism of C-H bond ...
