By developing innovative solutions to social and environmental problems, sustainable ventures carry greatpotential. Entrepreneurship which focuses especially on new venture creation can be developed through education anduniversities, in particular, are called upon to provide an impetus for social change. But social innovations are associatedwith certain hurdles, which are related to the multi-dimensionality, i.e. the tension between creating social,environmental and economic value and dealing with a multiplicity of stakeholders. The already complex field ofentrepreneurship education has to face these challenges. This paper, therefore, aims to identify starting points for theintegration of sustainability into entrepreneurship education. To pursue this goal experiences from three differentproject initiatives between the partner universities: Lapland University of Applied Sciences, FH Aachen University ofApplied Sciences and Turiba University are reflected and findings are systematically condensed into recommendationsfor education on sustainable entrepreneurship.

Das KERAMION beherbergt ein breites Sortiment an historischen Keramikstücken wie auch modernen künstlerischen Keramikarbeiten. Bei der neuen Konzeptionierung des Museums wurde eine Verbindung der historischen Sammlung und der modernen Kunst geschaffen, als Visualisierung dafür steht die eigens für das Museum erstellte Schrift. In dieser Schrift wird eine historische, schwungvolle Kurrentschrift aus dem 16. Jahrhundert mit einer modernen kantigen Serifenschrift verbunden. Daraus entsteht eine Schrift, die die Breite der Keramik widerspiegelt und von Steingut bis Porzellan alle Facetten aufgreift. Gepaart wird die einzigartige Schrift mit einem auf das Zentrum ausgerichteten Layoutprinzip, bei dem 3D Scans der Exponate in den Fokus rücken. Somit können die Besucher*innen auch von zu Hause einen Vorgeschmack auf die einzigartigen Materialien und Keramiktechniken bekommen.
This thesis aims at the presentation and discussion of well-accepted and new
imaging techniques applied to different types of flow in common hydraulic
engineering environments. All studies are conducted in laboratory conditions and
focus on flow depth and velocity measurements. Investigated flows cover a wide
range of complexity, e.g. propagation of waves, dam-break flows, slightly and fully
aerated spillway flows as well as highly turbulent hydraulic jumps.
Newimagingmethods are compared to different types of sensorswhich are frequently
employed in contemporary laboratory studies. This classical instrumentation as well
as the general concept of hydraulic modeling is introduced to give an overview on
experimental methods.
Flow depths are commonly measured by means of ultrasonic sensors, also known as
acoustic displacement sensors. These sensors may provide accurate data with high
sample rates in case of simple flow conditions, e.g. low-turbulent clear water flows.
However, with increasing turbulence, higher uncertainty must be considered.
Moreover, ultrasonic sensors can provide point data only, while the relatively large
acoustic beam footprint may lead to another source of uncertainty in case of
relatively short, highly turbulent surface fluctuations (ripples) or free-surface
air-water flows. Analysis of turbulent length and time scales of surface fluctuations
from point measurements is also difficult. Imaging techniques with different
dimensionality, however, may close this gap. It is shown in this thesis that edge
detection methods (known from computer vision) may be used for two-dimensional
free-surface extraction (i.e. from images taken through transparant sidewalls in
laboratory flumes). Another opportunity in hydraulic laboratory studies comes with
the application of stereo vision. Low-cost RGB-D sensors can be used to gather
instantaneous, three-dimensional free-surface elevations, even in flows with very
high complexity (e.g. aerated hydraulic jumps). It will be shown that the uncertainty
of these methods is of similar order as for classical instruments.
Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) is a well-accepted and widespread imaging
technique for velocity determination in laboratory conditions. In combination with
high-speed cameras, PIV can give time-resolved velocity fields in 2D/3D or even as
volumetric flow fields. PIV is based on a cross-correlation technique applied to small
subimages of seeded flows. The minimum size of these subimages defines the
maximum spatial resolution of resulting velocity fields. A derivative of PIV for
aerated flows is also available, i.e. the so-called Bubble Image Velocimetry (BIV). This
thesis emphasizes the capacities and limitations of both methods, using relatively
simple setups with halogen and LED illuminations. It will be demonstrated that
PIV/BIV images may also be processed by means of Optical Flow (OF) techniques.
OF is another method originating from the computer vision discipline, based on the
assumption of image brightness conservation within a sequence of images. The
Horn-Schunck approach, which has been first employed to hydraulic engineering
problems in the studies presented herein, yields dense velocity fields, i.e. pixelwise
velocity data. As discussed hereinafter, the accuracy of OF competes well with PIV
for clear-water flows and even improves results (compared to BIV) for aerated flow
conditions. In order to independently benchmark the OF approach, synthetic images
with defined turbulence intensitiy are used.
Computer vision offers new opportunities that may help to improve the
understanding of fluid mechanics and fluid-structure interactions in laboratory
investigations. In prototype environments, it can be employed for obstacle detection
(e.g. identification of potential fish migration corridors) and recognition (e.g. fish
species for monitoring in a fishway) or surface reconstruction (e.g. inspection of
hydraulic structures). It can thus be expected that applications to hydraulic
engineering problems will develop rapidly in near future. Current methods have not
been developed for fluids in motion. Systematic future developments are needed to
improve the results in such difficult conditions.
The major advantage of labyrinth weirs over linear weirs is hydraulic efficiency. In hydraulic modeling efforts, this strength contrasts with limited pump capacity as well as limited computational power for CFD simulations. For the latter, reducing the number of investigated cycles can significantly reduce necessary computational time. In this study, a labyrinth weir with different cycle numbers was investigated. The simulations were conducted in FLOW-3D HYDRO as a Large Eddy Simulation. With a mean deviation of 1.75 % between simulated discharge coefficients and literature design equations, a reasonable agreement was found. For downstream conditions, overall consistent results were observed as well. However, the orientation of labyrinth weirs with a single cycle should be chosen carefully under consideration of the individual research purpose.

Today’s society is undergoing a paradigm shift driven by the megatrend of sustainability. This undeniably affects all areas of Western life. This paper aims to find out how the luxury industry is dealing with this change and what adjustments are made by the companies. For this purpose, interviews were conducted with managers from the luxury industry, in which they were asked about specific measures taken by their companies as well as trends in the industry. In a subsequent evaluation, the trends in the luxury industry were summarized for the areas of ecological, social, and economic sustainability. It was found that the area of environmental sustainability is significantly more focused than the other sub-areas. Furthermore, the need for a customer survey to validate the industry-based measures was identified.
Next-generation aircraft designs often incorporate multiple large propellers attached along the wingspan. These highly flexible dynamic systems can exhibit uncommon aeroelastic instabilities, which should be carefully investigated to ensure safe operation. The interaction between the propeller and the wing is of particular importance. It is known that whirl flutter is stabilized by wing motion and wing aerodynamics. This paper investigates the effect of a propeller onto wing flutter as a function of span position and mounting stiffness between the propeller and wing. The analysis of a comparison between a tractor and pusher configuration has shown that the coupled system is more stable than the standalone wing for propeller positions near the wing tip for both configurations. The wing fluttermechanism is mostly affected by the mass of the propeller and the resulting change in eigenfrequencies of the wing. For very weak mounting stiffnesses, whirl flutter occurs, which was shown to be stabilized compared to a standalone propeller due to wing motion. On the other hand, the pusher configuration is, as to be expected, the more critical configuration due to the attached mass behind the elastic axis.
Messenger apps like WhatsApp and Telegram are frequently used for everyday communication, but they can also be utilized as a platform for illegal activity. Telegram allows public groups with up to 200.000 participants. Criminals use these public groups for trading illegal commodities and services, which becomes a concern for law enforcement agencies, who manually monitor suspicious activity in these chat rooms. This research demonstrates how natural language processing (NLP) can assist in analyzing these chat rooms, providing an explorative overview of the domain and facilitating purposeful analyses of user behavior. We provide a publicly available corpus of annotated text messages with entities and relations from four self-proclaimed black market chat rooms. Our pipeline approach aggregates the extracted product attributes from user messages to profiles and uses these with their sold products as features for clustering. The extracted structured information is the foundation for further data exploration, such as identifying the top vendors or fine-granular price analyses. Our evaluation shows that pretrained word vectors perform better for unsupervised clustering than state-of-the-art transformer models, while the latter is still superior for sequence labeling.
