Noch so 'ne Phrase, Faust auf die Nase! – Eine phraseologische Untersuchung des Nerv-Sprech

The so called "Nerv-Sprech" is a newly coined term classifying a specific group of colloquial phrasemes considered annoying by many German speakers. Apart from this affective evaluation of these phrasemes, their main common characteristic is the fact that they are the result of different processes of modification and/or incorporate paradoxical meaning.The online edition of the German magazine Der Spiegel has published a web dictionary of "Nerv-Sprech"-units, which functions as a ready-made corpus. This article categorizes these phraseological units as slogans, pragmatic or predicative phrasemes. Furthermore, in order to evaluate the validity of the term "Nerv-Sprech" from the point of view of the language system, I examine whether there are semantic or structural modifying aspects that are dominant among the phrasemes (and if so, which ones). Finally, a ludic function of "Nerv-Sprech" is postulated as a result of the creativity in modifying these phrasemes

Ultracold Chemistry and its Reaction Kinetics

We study the reaction kinetics of chemical processes occurring in the ultracold regime and systematically investigate their dynamics. Quantum entanglement is found to play a key role in driving an ultracold reaction towards a dynamical equilibrium. In case of multiple concurrent reactions Hamiltonian chaos dominates the phase space dynamics in the mean field approximation.Comment: 15 pages, 5 figure

Introduction: knowledge generation and innovation diffusion in the global automotive industry—change and stability during turbulent times

This introduction to this special section establishes the context within which automotive firms cope with turbulence caused by globalization, new governmental regulations, and advances in electronics, communication, and drive train technologies. While exploring change, the papers in the special section also report on stability, e.g. in the central role of Original Equipment Manufacturers in system integration and their resulting dominance over product architecture and supply chain dynamics. We apply the lens of change and stability to two stages of the innovation lifecycle: (i) knowledge generation; and (ii) the diffusion of innovations. The papers, organized along these dimensions, help us understand how and why automotive firms are changing their ways of innovating, but also why past patterns of innovative behavior persist. We close with an outlook on future research topics to complement this special sectio

Evaluation of methods for measuring tool-chip contact length in wet machining using different approaches (microtextured tool, in-situ visualization and restricted contact tool)

The contact length is one of the most important factors to evaluate the chip formation process and the mechanical loads in metal cutting. Over the years, several methods to identify the contact length were developed. However, especially for wet cutting processes the determination of the contact length is still challenging. In this paper, three methods to identify the contact length for dry and wet processes in cutting of Ti6Al4V and AISI4140 + QT are presented, discussed and analyzed. The first approach uses tools with a microtextured rake face. By evaluating the microstructures on the chip, a new method to identify the contact length is established. The second approach applies high speed recordings to identify the contact length. The challenge is thereby the application of high-speed recordings under wet conditions. In the third approach, tools with restricted contact length are used. It is shown that with all three methods the contact length is reduced using metal working fluid

Numerical and Experimental Investigation of Thermoplastics in Multi-Axis Forming Processes

Process planning for multi-axis forming presses is a particular challenge. This process provides the option to actively influencing the material flow in the forming process by defining a six dimensional tool motion path and the tool velocity. By comprehending this interaction, it is possible to control and thereby tailor the induced local material properties of the workpiece. Experiments were conducted with a multi-axis press, which is based on a Stewart platform. A simple plane workpiece geometry is chosen to analyse the flow behaviour and the temperature evolution of the glass mat thermoplastics (GMT) during the forming process. Subsequently, a numerical simulation of the multi-axis forming process is carried out and validated with the experimental data. The numerical analysis focuses on the material modelling as well as the prediction of the flow characteristics. Regarding material modelling of GMT, an extensive material characterization is performed to describe the flow behaviour. A prediction of the flow behaviour of GMT with reference to tool motion is enabled. For the FE simulation the element-free Galerkin method (EFG) is applied for modelling the fluid structure interaction and adaptive procedures

Modeling the effect of workpiece temperature on micromagnetic high-speed-3MA-testing in case of AISI 4140

The growing trend towards industry 4.0 requires in-process identification of the surface properties. The non-destructive highspeed-3MA-testing can be used to characterize surface layers of ferrous materials during turning processes. However, in-process measurements will result in higher workpiece temperatures and thus would interfere with the micromagnetic properties of the workpiece. In the presented study, workpiece surface temperatures will be experimentally determined when turning AISI 4140. Further on, workpieces will be heated up to the respective temperatures, which will then be measured with the 3MA-sensor as they rotate. The effect of temperature will be modelled and used for compensating the associated errors

GW_CLASS: Cosmological Gravitational Wave Background in the Cosmic Linear Anisotropy Solving System

The anisotropies of the Cosmological Gravitational Wave Background (CGWB) retain information about the primordial mechanisms that source the gravitational waves and about the geometry and the particle content of the universe at early times. In this work, we discuss in detail the computation of the angular power spectra of CGWB anisotropies and of their cross correlation with Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropies, assuming different processes for the generation of these primordial signals. We present an efficient implementation of our results in a modified version of CLASS which will be publicly available. By combining our new code GW_CLASS with MontePython, we forecast the combined sensitivity of future gravitational wave interferometers and CMB experiments to the cosmological parameters that characterize the cosmological gravitational wave background.Comment: 64 pages, 16 figures. V2 matches the version published by JCAP. GW_CLASS is publicly available on the class_public git repository as a branch GW_CLASS, https://github.com/lesgourg/class_public/tree/GW_CLASS (For details on installation and usage, follow the instructions in the README.

Multiscale simulation approach to predict the penetration depth of oil between chip and tool during orthogonal cutting of AISI 4140

Cooling lubricants in machining perform important tasks, from cooling and lubrication of the friction partners in contact to the removal of the separated chips. An essential, determining and largely unresolved question in relation to cooling lubricants in ma-chining is to what extent the coolant can get into the cutting zone. The aim of this paper is to address this question by using a multiscale approach to determine the penetration of the cooling lubricant gap. This is achieved by multiscale simulations by means of coupling the results of flow, structural and continuum mechanical simulations. Comparatively, the results of the simulated machining operation are compared with experimental orthogonal cutting tests of AISI 4140
