Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2023 im Fachbereich Ingenieurwissenschaften - Maschinenbau, Note: 1,3, Hamburger Fern-Hochschule, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In dieser Bachelorarbeit wird die Entwicklung eines additiven Fertigungssystem ( umgangssprachlich 3D-Drucker) beschrieben. Nach einer Einleitung in das Thema 3D-Druck und Materialien wird insbesondere auf die Konstruktion und die Berechnung per FEM-Analyse eingegangen. Additive Fertigungsverfahren, auch bekannt unter den Begriffen generative Fertigungsverfahren, Rapid Prototyping und Rapid Manufacturing, sind Fertigungsverfahren, welche Bauteile schichtweise aufbauen. Sie werden umgangssprachlich auch als 3D-Druck bezeichnet. Der schichtweise Aufbau ermöglicht die Fertigung von sehr komplexen Bauteilen, welche mit anderen Fertigungsverfahren teilweise gar nicht oder nur mit hohem Aufwand gefertigt werden können. Ausformschrägen oder die Vermeidung von Hinterschnitten müssen nicht beachtet werden, können jedoch abgebildet werden. Somit lassen sich Prototypen fertigen, welche das äußere Erscheinungsbild wie z.B. dem eines Spritzgussteils haben. Ein weiterer Vorteil dieser Verfahren ist das wesentlich geringe anfallen von Abfall als z.B. bei der subtraktiven Fertigung, wie dem Drehen oder Fräsen. Additive Fertigungsverfahren eignen sich somit hervorragend zur Herstellung von Prototypen und Kleinstserien. Da die Fertigung der Bauteile lange dauert, sind sie für die Großserienproduktion eher ungeeignet.

BOKEN SOM AVSLØRER NORGES UNDERVERDEN! Norge oppfattes som et av verdens tryggeste land. Lovlydig og traust, et rikt og velfungerende demokrati med verdens høyeste levestandard. Men like under overflaten finnes en velorganisert kriminell underverden basert på narkotikahandel, utpressing, systematisk vold, korrupsjon, hallik- virksomhet, menneskehandel og hvitvasking av penger. Denne boken avslører kulturen, historien og virksomheten til Norges største og mest lukkede kriminelle nettverk. Blant disse finner vi Hells Angels og de andre "1%-klubbene", gategjenger, rans - og torpedomiljøet og moderne slave- handlere. Boken gir også et innblikk i mindre kjente, men svært aktive miljøer som den brutale "Balkan-mafiaen", internasjonale narkotika-ligaer, hvitsnippede pengevaskere og de mektige bakmennene som sitter igjen med fortjenesten mens fotsoldatene soner. Bli med ned i Norges underverden og la deg ryste av hva som faktisk foregår i "verdens tryggeste land!"

After falling out of Farmer’s truck, Chicken must find his own way home in this goofy, laugh-out-loud story about overcoming obstacles and believing in yourself. It has not been a good day for Chicken. He went to the fair with Farmer, but didn’t win even one ribbon. And on the way home, the road is so bumpy that Farmer’s truck knocks Chicken right out! He’s been left behind! It’s the end for Chicken. Surely, he can’t walk all the way home. Or avoid the hungry fox along the way. Or maybe…he can? This rollicking picture book will have little ones in giggles over Chicken’s misadventures and chiming in on the plucky fowl’s mantra “I am a strong and powerful and nice-looking chicken!” as he achieves more than he thought possible.

Norges Bank has been an integrated part of Norwegian economic development since the complicated birth of the new nation-state after the Napoleonic wars.

Born at the edge of an open-pit copper mine in New Mexico, Jan Thomas comes from a background of working-class people, cultural Christians, but not committed believers. Growing up, he had influences and experiences causing doubts about himself and his ability to become more than his environment would have predicted. Influenced by teachers, Air Force buddies, and others, he began to trust God to do in him what he could not do for himself. As a youngster he thought he had no academic ability, but got BA and MDiv degrees. As a pastor he felt like a failure and began a career working in prisons. Struggling with life, he continued to try to serve. He married Fern, a widow with two children, and they had another child together. He became an administrator after only a few years; but his codependent nature, the desire to fit in, and to be liked at any cost nearly cost him his life. An old alcohol issue came back, at a time he was involved in two of the most amazing ministries of the twenty-first century, Celebrate Recovery and Kairos. Retiring in 1997, he began using CR in the prison he retired from. He was asked to help get the program into jails and prisons and became the first national director of Celebrate Recovery Inside. Celebrate Recovery Inside stretches across the United States and Canada as well as in many nations elsewhere. His own struggles have helped him become dedicated to the purpose God intended for him from the beginning. His ministry was not as a pastor but to those, like him, who struggled with life''s issues. When he stopped teaching and started the healing process for himself, God helped him to stop blundering and begin to see more of God''s blessing.

Masterarbeit aus dem Jahr 2018 im Fachbereich Medien / Kommunikation - Public Relations, Werbung, Marketing, Social Media, Note: 1.0, Donau-Universität Krems - Universität für Weiterbildung (Department für interaktive Medien und Bildungstechnologien), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die Digitalisierung hat umfassenden Einfluß auf Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft. Unternehmen die sich der digitalen Transformation stellen, erhöhen einerseits die Effizienz von internen Prozessen durch den Einsatz von Technologie und andererseits steht die Kundenbeziehung in Form von optimierten Kundenerlebnissen als konsequente Reaktion auf die durch Digitalisierung veränderte Kundenerwartung im Fokus. Von diesen Entwicklungen sind Business-to Business (B2B) als auch Business-to-Customer (B2C) ausgerichtete Branchen gleichermaßen betroffen, wenn auch mit unterschiedlicher Gewichtung. Die Marketingabteilung bedient im Unternehmen die Kernaufgaben der digitalen Markenführung und hat damit das Potenzial als interne Schnittstelle für kundenbezogenen Informationsfluss zu dienen, das Kundenerlebnis (Customer-Experience) zu optimieren und die dafür notwendigen Veränderungen im technologischen sowie unternehmenskulturellen Bereich anzuregen. Zu den Kernaufgaben des Marketing gehören, neben den operativen Techniken zur Beeinflussung der Kaufentscheidung, auch konzeptionelle Themenbereiche mit unternehmensweitem Einfluß wie die digitale Markenführung und die Mitarbeit am Entwurf digitaler Geschäftsmodelle. Das Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es Entscheidungsträgern in Unternehmen mit eigener Marketingabteilung die zentrale Rolle des digitalen Marketing am laufenden Prozess der digitalen Transformation aufzuzeigen und vom digitalen Marketing ausgehende abteilungsübergreifende Synergieffekte zu skizzieren. Des Weiteren soll die Arbeit als Denkanstoß dienen, die richtigen Voraussetzungen für exzellent integriertes digitales Marketing im Unternehmen zu schaffen – dies in Hinblick auf die notwendige Adaption der Unternehmenskultur, die Schaffung der technischen Voraussetzungen als Grundlage des digitalen Marketing sowie die Beleuchtung der Unternehmensorganisation in Hinblick auf die Fähigkeit digitale Strategien abteilungsübergreifend zu implementieren. Als Zielgruppe sollen Marketingverantwortliche sowie Geschäftsführer in Unternehmen mit dezidierter Marketingabteilung angesprochen werden, die sich mit Ansätzen zur digitalen Transformation Ihres Unternehmens aus der Sicht des Marketing beschäftigen möchten.

"Mouse and Cow are making soup, but Pig keeps trying to add strange ingredients"--

One bullet equals one kill. For SWAT sniper Jake Denton, the bullet casings he saves as grim reminders of his "kills" are beginning to add up. His wife, his department-ordered psychiatrist, and even Jake himself are all beginning to question just how these sanctioned kills are affecting his mental health. Nobody wants him to end up like Lee Staley, his mentor and ex-partner---now out on permanent psych leave, drinking himself to death, and the prime suspect in a series of shootings that have paralyzed Northern California. Jake doesn''t believe that Staley''s guilty, but since their job has taught them to kill, how easy would it be for his friend to cross over to the other side? How easy would it be for him? On every police force in the country, there''s a SWAT sniper going about his daily life, acting like an average cop, until the moment when the call comes in. Then they become a hostage''s last hope and a criminal''s worst nightmare. To some, they are silent heroes---to others, silent killers. Grant Jerkins and Jan Thomas''s Done in One pulls back the curtain on their world.

We analyze price limits as decision aids for identifying favorable and unfavorable contracts from the perspective of a selling firm. The corresponding decision problem is shaped by uncertainty of the outcomes and incomplete information about the decision maker's preferences. The proposed price limits are based on the theory of almost stochastic dominance. We make this theory more applicable by contributing a version of almost second-degree stochastic dominance that (1) refers to the same aggregate information about marginal utilities as almost first-degree stochastic dominance, (2) does without information about higher order derivatives of the utility function, and (3) is implied by almost first-degree stochastic dominance (hierarchy property). Numerical examples show that the incomplete preference information may lead to substantial improvements of the price limits relative to the situation where no preference information is available.

Big Buts of the Bible is a must-read for anyone who wants to study the familiar and not-so-familiar people and stories of Scripture in a fresh way. According to author Jan Thomas, one of the most important words in the Bible is but. So much hinges on that single word. A but always changes reality. That''s where our God dwells-in that other reality whose values and actions and reactions are not of this world. And when we dwell there with him, our lives are forever changed. Big Buts of the Bible helps us learn the amazing power of Scripture''s many circumstance-changing, mind-changing, reality-changing, life-changing buts.
