Application of the IS-MP-IA model to the German economy and policy implications
No full textExtending the IS-MP-IA model developed by Romer (2000) and applying the GARCH (Engle, 1982, 2001) methodology, the author finds that equilibrium GDP in Germany is positively affected by stock market performance and real exchange rate appreciation, and negatively influenced by the expected inflation rate, the government deficit/GDP ratio, and the U.S. federal funds rate. The relatively low deficit/GDP ratio of 1.83% in 2003 indicates that its fiscal condition was healthy. However, some other EU members may need to exercise fiscal discipline. Because real appreciation has a positive impact on output, a stronger euro may not be a concern for Germany but may be worried by those EU member nations which depend upon exports to stimulate their economies.
Rezension: "Schwarze Spiegel" von Arno Schmidt und Mahler
No full textDer österreichische Künstler Mahler stellt sich mit seinen eigenwilligen, überaus gelungenen Adaptionen literarischer Werke (z.B. Thomas Bernhard, Robert Musil, Marcel Proust) in eine innerhalb des Mediums Comic lange historische Tradition, gleichzeitig gelingt es ihm in diesen Arbeiten die Spezifika seiner erzählerischen und zeichnerischen Erzählweise zu erhalten. Neustes Beispiel aus dieser Reihe von Veröffentlichungen ist die Bearbeitung der Erzählung Schwarze Spiegel (1951) des deutschen Autors Arno Schmidt (1914-1979), in dessen umfangreichen Werk apokalyptische Settings vielfach nachweisbar sind. Die Wahl von Schwarze Spiegel – ein Text, der ja auch in kommentierten Lesefassungen für den Einsatz im Unterricht vorliegt – erweist sich für Mahlers Herangehensweise dabei als besonders glücklich: Schmidts grimmige, aber nicht humorlose Vorlage geht formal wie auch inhaltlich ideal mit Mahlers vorsätzlich reduziertem Stil zusammen. Die vorliegende Adaption erlaubt somit nicht nur eine Begegnung mit Mahlers kondensierter künstlerischer Herangehensweise, sondern auch eine Wiederbegegnung mit einem Text Arno Schmidts, der ja längst als Klassiker der deutschsprachigen Literatur gelten muss.With his idiosyncratic, highly successful adaptations of literary works (e.g. Thomas Bernhard, Robert Musil, Marcel Proust), the Austrian artist Mahler places himself in a long historical tradition within the medium of comics; at the same time, in these works he succeeds in preserving the specifics of his narrative and drawing style. The latest example from this series of publications is the adaptation of the story Schwarze Spiegel (1951) by the German writer Arno Schmidt (1914-1979), in whose extensive oeuvre apocalyptic settings can be traced many times. The choice of Schwarze Spiegel – a text that is also available in annotated reading versions for use in the classroom – proves to be particularly fortunate for Mahler\u27s approach: Schmidt\u27s grim but not humourless original goes ideally with Mahler\u27s deliberately reduced style, both in form and content. The present adaptation thus not only allows an encounter with Mahler\u27s condensed artistic approach, but also a re-encounter with a text by Arno Schmidt, who has long been considered a classic of German-language literature
Winning redefined, a new brand positioning for MP Motorsport
No full textMP Motorsport is a talent educating race team participating in the classes below the Formula 1. The problem with the lower classes and therefore MP Motorsport as well is that these classes don’t get much attention and exposure. As a company run by people with passion the branding and positioning is more something that naturally emerged from this passion rather than a series of conscious decisions. This makes it fragile. A more conscious strategy and vision on how MP Motorsport needs to be branded and positioned against their competition that is more than “look how cool racing is” is needed to become more attractive for sponsoring. This report describes the process from analysis to finding the right positioning and an advise for a new brand identity and an implementation plan to help becoming more attractive for sponsoring goals. The analysis done with employees showed a unique characteristic that will help the team to position themselves against the competition; the family atmosphere. This atmosphere is what also characterises their contradictory personality. This personality is on one hand leading and ambitious and on the other hand modest and involved. Competition and stakeholder analysis have been performed to find the right combination of being unique to the competition, desirable for the stakeholders (the fans and sponsors) and builds upon the core strengths of the company. Then using the brand key model, a positioning is made with the essence: Be your best self. The belief, “in everyone hides a talent” and values like “everyone is equal” and “together we succeed” combined with the essence and the positioning resulted in a brand story that describes the feeling MP Motorsport wants to communicate. To manifestate the brand, an advise has been set up for a tone of voice and tone of image. Wrapped in a concept called “winning redefined” this advise is part of the whole implementation plan that should lead the way for the team to implement the newly created brand in short and long term actions. In 3 phases MP Motorsport is advised to start with a clear brand introduction to the target groups Gen Z and potential sponsors. The next phase revolves around creating a community to attract both Gen Z talents and subsequently sponsors to interact with the team and each other. Finally the last phase is long term focused and aims for sustainable growth. In this phase the community is established and can expect various opportunities to discover and develop a whole range of talents, sponsors and gen z are connected to each other via MP Motorsport and the team is able to finance the lower classes without the pressure of the money drivers bring along.Strategic Product Desig
Derivations (MP) and Evaluations (OT)
No full textThe main claim of this paper is that the minimalist framework and optimality theory adopt more or less the same architecture of grammar: both assume that a generator defines a set S of potentially well-formed expressions that can be generated on the basis of a given input, and that there is an evaluator that selects the expressions from S that are actually grammatical in a given language L. The paper therefore proposes a model of grammar in which the strengths of the two frameworks are combined: more specifically, it is argued that the computational system of human language CHL from MP creates a set S of potentially well-formed expressions, and that these are subsequently evaluated in an optimality theoretic fashion.The definitive version of this paper is published in Linguistics in Potsdam 25 (2006).Broekhuis, H.

A novel approach to MP-PIC: Continuum particle model for dense particle flows in fluidized beds
No full textA novel approach to Multiphase-Particle-in-Cell (MP-PIC), called Continuum Particle Model (CPM), is developed for dense gas-particle flows. CPM has high computational speed, comparable to that of MP-PIC, but a robustness and accuracy closer to that of a Discrete Element Model (DEM). The gas phase is treated as a continuum phase and particles are tracked discretely, but particle collisions are modelled by considering the divergence of the continuum particle stress tensor. Details on efficient solution to the model are presented. For comparison, a parametric study is performed for quasi-2D fluidized beds. Comparison of CFD-CPM is made with MP-PIC and CFD-DEM. The particle stress models by Harris and Crighton, and by Srivastava and Sundaresan are tested in our CFD-CPM. Results from CFD-CPM based on the Srivastava and Sundaresan particle stress model show good agreement with CFD-DEM results. We validate our model by comparison with experimental benchmark results from Gopalan et. al. (2016).Complex Fluid Processin

Genomewide linkage scan of schizophrenia in a large multicenter pedigree sample using single nucleotide polymorphisms
No full textA genomewide linkage scan was carried out in eight clinical samples of informative schizophrenia families. After all quality control checks, the analysis of 707 European-ancestry families included 1615 affected and 1602 unaffected genotyped individuals, and the analysis of all 807 families included 1900 affected and 1839 unaffected individuals. Multipoint linkage analysis with correction for marker-marker linkage disequilibrium was carried out with 5861 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; Illumina version 4.0 linkage map). Suggestive evidence for linkage ( European families) was observed on chromosomes 8p21, 8q24.1, 9q34 and 12q24.1 in nonparametric and/or parametric analyses. In a logistic regression allele-sharing analysis of linkage allowing for intersite heterogeneity, genomewide significant evidence for linkage was observed on chromosome 10p12. Significant heterogeneity was also observed on chromosome 22q11.1. Evidence for linkage across family sets and analyses was most consistent on chromosome 8p21, with a one-LOD support interval that does not include the candidate gene NRG1, suggesting that one or more other susceptibility loci might exist in the region. In this era of genomewide association and deep resequencing studies, consensus linkage regions deserve continued attention, given that linkage signals can be produced by many types of genomic variation, including any combination of multiple common or rare SNPs or copy number variants in a region.
