Reinventing concrete construction with textile-reinforced concrete, this innovative composite material allows engineers new possibilities for filigree, yet durable constructions in concrete. This work of research examines the bond behaviour of this new composite material, and in particular, the cause of longitudinal cracks which can occur in the textile-reinforcement layer of this concrete. Experimental and numeric examinations show that the magnitude of the splitting tensile forces, which lead to the aforementioned cracking, is largely dependent on the geometry of the individual fibre strands. In order to characterise the fibre strands, geometrical parameters were introduced, which were assigned to Laser Scans of textile reinforcements. Based on the evidence collected, a mechanical model, in which the input parameters are of geometric nature, was presented allowing calculation of the splitting tensile force. This method has made it possible to better understand the bond behaviour of textile reinforcements in concrete and has progressed the effort to establish this new material in construction.

Der aktuelle Versorgungsreport geht der Frage nach, welche Auswirkungen der Klimawandel auf unsere Gesundheit hat und welche Konsequenzen sich daraus für die medizinische Versorgung in Deutschland ergeben. Dabei bringt er die unterschiedlichen Perspektiven von Umweltepidemiologie, Medizin und Gesundheitspolitik zusammen. Expertinnen und Experten analysieren in insgesamt 16 Fachbeiträgen den Einfluss des Klimawandels auf Erkrankungshäufigkeiten, gefährdete Bevölkerungsgruppen und Infrastrukturen der Gesundheitsversorgung. Der Report verfolgt das Ziel, aktuelle wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse für die Versorgungspraxis aufzubereiten und so zu einer stärkeren Sensibilisierung für die gesundheitlichen Folgen des Klimawandels in der Gesellschaft beizutragen. Dargelegt werden: - klimawissenschaftliche Grundlagen und Gesundheitsfolgen der Klimaveränderungen - versorgungsbezogene Analysen zu bedeutsamen Gesundheitsrisiken und Präventionsempfehlungen - Verhalten der Bevölkerung auf Basis einer aktuellen deutschlandweiten Befragung - Anpassungsbedarf auf infrastrukturell-organisatorischer Ebene Der Teil "Daten und Analysen" informiert umfassend über die Häufigkeit von Erkrankungen und Behandlungen in Deutschland.

This accessible text provides an overview of different social influence techniques, which people use in order to make others meet various requests, suggestions and commands. Author Dariusz Dolinski does not merely describe these techniques, but also explores the research behind them: how do we know that they work, and under what conditions are they more or less likely to be effective. A perfect introduction for psychology graduates and undergraduates studying social influence and persuasion, this original text will also appeal to scholars and students in neighboring disciplines, as well as interested practitioners in the field of sales and marketing.
