Cahn–Hilliard-type Equations: Robust Discretization and Efficient Implementation
Penzler, Patrick (2009-05-11)In this work, a robust and efficient numerical method to simulate Cahn–Hilliard-type equations is presented. The considered equations are of fourth order and contain two nonlinearities: one is the concentration-dependent ... -
Calabi-Yau Manifolds and Feynman Integral Computations: The Family of Banana Feynman Graphs
Nega, Christoph (2022-01-17)In this thesis we use geometrical and string theoretic inspired methods to compute Feynman integrals. We analyze the important family of l-loop banana Feynman graphs. For this we relate the abstract l-loop Feynman integral ... -
Calculating Corrections in F-Theory from Refined BPS Invariants and Backreacted Geometries
Poretschkin, Maximilian (2015-03-31)This thesis presents various corrections to F-theory compactifications which rely on the computation of refined Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) invariants and the analysis of backreacted geometries.
Detailed ... -
Calculating Sparse and Dense Correspondences for Near-Isometric Shapes
Burghard, Oliver (2018-05-29)Comparing and analysing digital models are basic techniques of geometric shape processing. These techniques have a variety of applications, such as extracting the domain knowledge contained in the growing number of digital ... -
Can resilience be built through micro-finance tools?: A case study of coping and adaptation strategies to climate-related shocks in Piura, Peru
Oft, Philine (2009-07-07)This study focuses on the livelihoods of rural households in the region of Piura in northern Peru, who are either farmers or livestock holders. The livelihood systems of these farmers are exposed to and vulnerable to ... -
Can the halo model describe 2nd- and 3rd-order correlation functions of gravitational lensing consistently?
Martin, Sandra Maria (2019-11-07)To understand and model the distribution of and the relation between baryonic and dark matter in the Universe is one of the key challenges in contemporary astrophysics. A well-established theoretical description is given ... -
The cannabinoid receptor 2: from mouse to human
Gennequin, Benjamin (2015-05-13)The endocannabinoid system (ECS) regulates numerous cellular and physiological processes. Nowadays, the system comprises two G protein-coupled receptors named CB1 and CB2 receptor, and the endogenous ligands anandamide ... -
Capturing Hand-Object Interaction and Reconstruction of Manipulated Objects
Tzionas, Dimitrios (2017-04-26)Hand motion capture with an RGB-D sensor gained recently a lot of research attention, however, even most recent approaches focus on the case of a single isolated hand. We focus instead on hands that interact with other ... -
Carbon nanotube composites: mechanical, electrical, and optical properties
Olek, Maciej (2007)In the frame of this thesis novel concepts for the functionalization of nanotubes and fabrication of optimized, homogeneous MWNT/polymer heterostructures are presented. The effects of various dispersion states and morphologies ... -
Carbon Nanotube Substrates for Tissue Engineering Applications: Analysis of surface nanotopography, cellular adhesion, and elasticity
Firkowska, Izabela (2009-01-16)The present study investigates the applicability of multiwalled carbon nanotubes in creating novel nanostructured matrices exhibiting biomimetic designed features. The thus produced CNT-based constructs were employed to ... -
The Carbon Sulfide Anions (C4S4)2− and β-(C3S5)2−: A Crystallographic Study on the Metal Salts and the Hydrolysis and Oxidation Properties
Ben Amer, Younis Omer (2009-02-20)Tetrathiosquarate (C4S4)2− forms water soluble compounds of salt like character with the earth alkaline ions from Mg2+ to Ba2+. While Ca2+ and Sr2+ ... -
Carbon-carbon double-bond shift in the biosynthesis of the antibiotic corallopyronin A: CorJ DH*: a shift domain
Lohr, Friederike (2015-03-13)Corallopyronin A is a myxobacterial compound, which was isolated in our lab from the strain Corallococcus coralloides B035. It is a potent in vivo active antibiotic, which is currently undergoing preclinical studies. ... -
Cardiac Gαi2 Protein Function and Regulation of High-Voltage-Gated L-type Calcium Channels
Dizayee, Sara (2012-05-23)It has been proposed that the highly homologous and pertussis toxin (PTX)-sensitive cardiac Gαi isoforms, Gαi2 and Gαi3, are functionally distinct. Moreover, they are upregulated in heart ... -
Cardiac L-type calcium channels and expression of RGK proteins in mouse models associated with type 2 diabetes
Köth, Jessica (2017-10-19)Introduction: Cardiovascular disease, such as diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) and resulting heart failure (HF), is a leading cause of death for diabetic patients.
In ventricles of non-diabetic HF ... -
Cardinals as Ultrapowers: A Canonical Measure Analysis under the Axiom of Determinacy
Bold, Stefan (2009-11-11)This thesis is in the field of Descriptive Set Theory and examines some consequences of the Axiom of Determinacy concerning partition properties that define large cardinals. The Axiom of Determinacy (AD) is a game-theoretic ... -
Carvedilol-mediated signal transduction at the β2 adrenergic receptor
Benkel, Tobias (2022-07-14)G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) comprise the most prominent family of membrane proteins in the mammalian genome. They are required to relay extracellular cues into a cellular response. The environmental interactions ... -
The CAS protein and Ca2+ signaling in the chloroplast of Arabidopsis thaliana
Pirayesh, Niloufar (2023-03-16)There has been evidence that CAS forms a complex in the chloroplast of Chlamydomonas with PSI, CYTb6/f, and other proteins like PGRL1 and ANR1. However, in A. thaliana, such a CAS complex has not been shown yet. Therefore, ... -
