Global Modelling of Atmospheric Halogen Chemistry in the Marine Boundary Layer
(2005)
The importance of reactive halogen chemistry in our atmosphere has become evident throughout the last decades. The discovery of the chemical reactions leading to the stratospheric ozone hole over the South Pole in spring ...
Global Modelling of Cloud, Convection and Precipitation Influences on Trace Gases and Aerosols
(2006)
In atmospheric chemistry modelling increasing attention has been paid to the effects of aqueous phase chemistry in the last decade. Even though wet deposition is a considerable sink in the atmospheric budgets of several ...
Analysis and Manipulation of Repetitive Structures of Varying Shape
(2013-05-22)
Self-similarity and repetitions are ubiquitous in man-made and natural objects. Such structural regularities often relate to form, function, aesthetics, and design considerations. Discovering structural redundancies along ...
From cell to robot: A bio-inspired locomotion device
(2014-05-02)
Bionics or biomimetics is an interdisciplinary research field, a scientific approach to applicate naturally developed biological systems, methods and solutions to the study and design of technology and engineering systems. ...
Development and application of coupled THM solvers to estimate rock failure events from laboratory to field scales
(2015-07-14)
In this thesis I present a theoretical and numerical model to simulate complex fluid-rock interactions with a poro- elasto- plastic rheology, multi- phase flow and heat transport (THM- model). Goal of this work is to improve ...
Modeling and Simulation of cracks and fractures with peridynamics in brittle materials
(2017-04-24)
Today, ceramic materials are an essential component of batteries for electric cars. One key feature of this kind of battery is the safety of the ceramic core. Here, the precise approximation of the evolution of damage after ...
Quantifizierung der relativen Meeresspiegelentwicklung entlang der Küsten des Omans
(2019-12-03)
Zentrales Thema dieser Promotion sind die Ursachen und Auswirkungen von Meeresspiegelschwankungen auf die Küste des Omans, welche auf verschiedenen Zeitskalen beleuchtet werden. Anhand der Küstenmorphologie, der Topographie ...
Modeling climate and land use change impacts on water resources and soil erosion in the Dano catchment (Burkina Faso, West Africa)
(2018-07-11)
The study assesses the effect of climate and land use change on water resources and soil ero-sion in the Dano catchment, Burkina Faso. Field measurements and derived process under-standing are complemented by a physically ...
Pore-Scale Modelling of Induced-Polarization Mechanisms in Geologic Materials
(2019-03-20)
This thesis is concerned with mechanistic pore-scale models, which relate the induced-polarization (IP) response of geologic materials to the underlying physical and chemical processes. Although a sound understanding of ...
Automatic Reconstruction of Parametric, Volumetric Building Models from 3D Point Clouds
(2019-05-02)
Planning, construction, modification, and analysis of buildings requires means of representing a building's physical structure and related semantics in a meaningful way. With the rise of novel technologies and increasing ...
