Zum Verständnis der Rolle der Polarregionen im weltweiten Klimageschehen tragen fachübergreifende Betrachtungen wie in diesem interdisziplinären Schwerpunktprogramm in besonderer Weise bei. Das Schwerpunktprogramm gewährleistet, dass sich deutsche Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftler an der inte...

The concept of lightweight design has become more and more important in engineering. Its aim is to reduce the mass of any kind of technical structure to a minimum in order to save resources, costs, and energy during both manufacturing and operation. This often means to make technical components and ...

The computer of our day-to-day environments offer a plethora of interaction techniques. The shift from interacting with dedicated “computers” to interacting with distributed ensembles of computational devices (so-called pervasive computing environments, PCE) will fundamentally change our understandi...

Iron-sulfur (FeS) centers are essential protein cofactors in all forms of life. In particular, FeS centers function as enzyme cofactors in catalysis and electron transfer. Understanding the crosstalk of metal ions on a cellular basis requires multidisciplinary and cooperative approaches that span th...
