Facility Location Planning in Relief Logistics: Decision Support for German Authorities
The delivery of essential goods to beneficiaries in the aftermath of a disaster is one of the main objectives of relief logistics. Thereby, the present work aims to improve relief logistics by improving the location selection of warehouses, distribution centers, and points of distribution. Consequently, it offers the potential to significantly improve the distribution of goods in the aftermath of future disasters and, thereby, increase disaster resilience.
Energy as a Sociotechnical Problem
Energy as a Sociotechnical Problem offers an innovative approach to equip interdisciplinary research on sociotechnical transitions with coherence and focus. The book emphasizes sociotechnical problems in three analytical dimensions: - In the control dimension, contributing authors examine how control can be maintained despite increasing complexity and uncertainty, e.g., in power grid operations or on energy markets; - In the change dimension, the authors explore if and how change is possible despite the need for stable orientation, e.g., regarding discourses, real-world labs and learning; - Finally, in the action dimension, the authors analyze how the ability to act on a permanent basis is s...
Strengthening Resilience of Supply with Essential Goods through Public-Private Emergency Collaborations: Challenges and Incentives
Companies can be valuable partners in delivering essential goods but must be appropriately motivated to participate in humanitarian crisis management. This work provides valuable insights into the status of humanitarian crisis management from the perspective of different stakeholders. It shows the potential of collaborative approaches, addressing the strengths and incentives of stakeholders accordingly.
Cross-Border Collaboration in Disaster Management
In recent years, disaster events spreading across national borders have increased, which requires improved collaboration between countries. By means of an agent-based simulation and an empirical study, this thesis provides valuable insights for decision-makers in order to overcome barriers in cross-border cooperation and thus, enhance borderland resilience for future events. Finally, implications for today's world in terms of globalization versus emerging nationalism are discussed.
An analysis of current and future electricity production from biogas in Germany
In this work a process simulation model identifies the most profitable German biogas plant types and sizes. Small manure and large-scale biowaste plants are currently the most economically attractive installations whereas the valorization of energy crops turns out to be unprofitable. Future developments are assessed with the help of a regional optimization model under constraints. Capacity expansion concerns small-scale manure and biowaste installations rather than plants based on energy crops.
Bewertung der Ökologie, Wirtschaftlichkeit und sozialen Effekte von ressourceneffizienzsteigernden Maßnahmen auf Quartiersebene – von der volkswirtschaftlichen zur akteursspezifischen Perspektive (NaMaRes): Schlussbericht des Forschungsvorhabens
Das NaMaRes-Projekt entwickelte Werkzeuge und Handlungsempfehlungen zur Unterstützung einer nachhaltigen und ressourceneffizienten Stadtplanung auf Quartiersebene. Die betrachteten Ressourcen umfassen Wasser, Stoffe, Fläche und Ökosystemleistungen. Die Projektergebnisse verbessern die Informationslage über Ressourcen in Bestandsquartieren und bieten eine Grundlage für Akteure in politischen Diskussionen und städtischer Umsetzungsplanung. Das Projekt trägt zur Umsetzung der SDGs in Städten bei. - The NaMaRes project developed tools and recommendations to support sustainable and resource-efficient urban planning at the neighborhood level. The considered resources include water, materials, land, and ecosystem services. The project's results enhance the information available on resources in existing neighborhoods and provide a foundation for stakeholders in political discussions and urban implementation planning. The project contributes to the implementation of the SDGs in cities.
Entscheidungsunterstützung zur Planung und Bewertung nachhaltiger industrieller Wertschöpfungsketten – dargestellt am Beispiel von Fahrzeugteilen
Unternehmen befinden sich derzeit in einer Transformation zum nachhaltigeren, vor allem klimaneutralen Wirtschaften. Wesentlich dabei ist die Identifikation von Stellhebeln sowie die technoökonomische und ökologische Bewertung möglicher Maßnahmen. In dieser Arbeit wurde ein Entscheidungsunterstützungssystem entwickelt, mit dem Wertschöpfungsketten klimafreundlicher und zugleich wirtschaftlich konfiguriert werden können. Eine Anwendung erfolgt in Fallstudien zur Automobil- und Zulieferindustrie. - Companies are currently in a transformation towards a more sustainable, especially climate-neutral business. The identification of drivers as well as the techno-economic and ecological evaluation of possible measures are essential in this process. In this work, a decision support system was developed to configure industrial value chains in a more climate-friendly and at the same time economical way. The decision support system is applied in case studies of the automotive and supplier industry.

Public Theology Perspectives on Religion and Education
In order to draw out the relationship between publicly-oriented Christianity and education, this book demonstrates that education is an important method and prerequisite of public theology, as well as an urgent object of public theology research’s attention. Featuring work from diverse academic disciplines—including religion education, theology, philosophy, and religious studies—this edited collection also contends with the educational challenges that come with the decline of religion on the one hand and its transformation and regained public relevance on the other. Taken together, the contributions to this volume provide a comprehensive argument for why education deserves systematic attention in the context of public theology discourse, and vice versa.
