Therefore, historical water channels in inner-Alpine dry valleys were used as century-long irrigation experiments to investigate adjustments in tree growth to contrasting water supply. This involved quantifying the tree-ring growth of irrigated and non-irrigated (control) Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) in Valais (Switzerland), as well as European larch (Larix decidua Mill.) and black pine (Pinus nigra Arnold) in Vinschgau (Italy). Furthermore, the adjustments in radial growth of Scots pine and European larch to an abrupt stop in irrigation were analyzed. Irrigation promoted the radial growth of all tree species investigated compared to the control: (1) directly through increased soil water availability, and (2) indirectly through increased soil nutrients and humus contents in the irrigated plots. Irrigation led to a full elimination of growth responses to climate for European larch and black pine, but not for Scots pine, which might become more sensitive to drought with increasing tree size in Valais. For the control trees, the response of the latewood increment to water availability in July/August has decreased in recent decades for all species, but increased in May for Scots pine only. The sudden irrigation stop caused a drop in radial growth to a lower level for Scots pine or similar level for larch compared to the control for up to ten years. However, both tree species were then able to adjust to the new conditions and subsequently grew with similar (Scots pine) or even higher growth rates (larch) than the control. To estimate the impact of climate change on future forest development, the duration of manipulation experiments should be on longer time scales in order to capture adjustment processes and feedback mechanisms of forest ecosystems.}, language = {en} } @article{FredebeulKreinSteingroever2014, author = {Fredebeul-Krein, Markus and Steingr{\"o}ver, Markus}, title = {Wholesale broadband access to IPTV in an NGA environment : how to deal with it from a regulatory perspective?}, series = {Telecommunications Policy}, volume = {38}, journal = {Telecommunications Policy}, number = {3}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0308-5961 (Print)}, doi = {doi:10.1016/j.telpol.2013.04.002}, pages = {264 -- 277}, year = {2014}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FrotscherKochRaatschenetal.2014, author = {Frotscher, Ralf and Koch, Jan-Peter and Raatschen, Hans-J{\"u}rgen and Staat, Manfred}, title = {Evaluation of a computational model for drug action on cardiac tissue}, series = {11th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM XI) ; 5th European Conference on Computational Mechanics (ECCM V) ; 6th European Conference on Computational Fluid Dynamics (ECFD VI) ; July 20 - 25, 2014, Barcelona}, booktitle = {11th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM XI) ; 5th European Conference on Computational Mechanics (ECCM V) ; 6th European Conference on Computational Fluid Dynamics (ECFD VI) ; July 20 - 25, 2014, Barcelona}, editor = {Onate, E.}, organization = {World Congress on Computational Mechanics <11, 2014, Barcelona>}, pages = {1 -- 12}, year = {2014}, language = {en} } @article{FrotscherStaat2014, author = {Frotscher, Ralf and Staat, Manfred}, title = {Stresses produced by different textile mesh implants in a tissue equivalent}, series = {BioNanoMaterials}, volume = {15}, journal = {BioNanoMaterials}, number = {1-2}, publisher = {De Gruyter}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {2191-4672 (E-Journal); 2193-066X (E-Journal); 0011-8656 (Print); 1616-0177 (Print); 2193-0651 (Print)}, doi = {10.1515/bnm-2014-0003}, pages = {25 -- 30}, year = {2014}, abstract = {Two single-incision mini-slings used for treating urinary incontinence in women are compared with respect to the stresses they produce in their surrounding tissue.

Here we perform 2D finite element analyses to compare the shear stresses and normal stresses in the tissue equivalent for the two meshes and to investigate their failure behavior. The results clearly show that the Gynecare TVT fails for increasing loads in a zipper-like manner because it gradually debonds from the surrounding tissue. Contrary to that, the tissue at the ends of the DynaMesh-SIS direct may rupture but only at higher loads. The simulation results are in good agreement with the experimental observations thus the computational model helps to interpret the experimental results and provides a tool for qualitative evaluation of mesh implants.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FuchsRitz2014, author = {Fuchs, Britta and Ritz, Thomas}, title = {Usability for Blended Shopping - Solving Major Flaws by Applying Usability Engineering and Proven Integration Technologies}, series = {Proceedings of the 11th International Conference on e-Business, ICE-B 2014, Vienna, Austria}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 11th International Conference on e-Business, ICE-B 2014, Vienna, Austria}, isbn = {978-989-758-043-7}, doi = {10.5220/0005113502160223}, pages = {216 -- 223}, year = {2014}, language = {en} } @article{FuestKotliarWalteretal.2014, author = {Fuest, Matthias and Kotliar, Konstantin and Walter, Peter and Plange, Niklas}, title = {Monitoring intraocular pressure changes after intravitreal Ranibizumab injection using rebound tonometry}, series = {Ophthalmic and physiological optics}, volume = {34}, journal = {Ophthalmic and physiological optics}, number = {4}, publisher = {Wiley-Blackwell}, address = {Oxford}, issn = {1475-1313 (E-Journal); 0275-5408 (Print)}, doi = {10.1111/opo.12134}, pages = {438 -- 444}, year = {2014}, language = {en} } @article{FunkeDickhoffKeinzetal.2014, author = {Funke, Harald and Dickhoff, J. and Keinz, Jan and Anis, H.
