Cool-Climate White Wine Oenology is dedicated exclusively to the technology and science of white still wines and sparkling base wines, as they are produced by the rapidly growing British wine industry and in countries with a similar climate. It has a strong focus on sensory issues and guides the reader through the entire process of white winemaking - from the crush pad to bottling - clearly defining which measures to take and which to avoid. Whilst this book does not neglect the scientific fundamentals of oenology, it also gives numerous practical hints and technical details of hands-on winery work and provides valuable insights into the inherently cross-disciplinary nature of white winemaking and a holistic view of one of the most fascinating fields of contemporary oenology.

The thesis at hand presents a novel design approach for turn trajectories. The approach considers the flight performance of the controlled aircraft by taking into account the linearized closed-loop dynamics during the design process. Instead of specifying requirements regarding flight path primitives, the design process, presented in this thesis, formulates demands directly to the aircraft behavior and determines a set of controller commands, which ensures the aircraft to fulfill these requirements. By separating the feed forward command design from the flight path determination, the process is able to compensate delays of the closed-loop system and significantly improves the trajectory tracking performance of the controlled aircraft. The advantages of the trajectory design algorithm are demonstrated by a fully integrated trajectory generation system. The functional breakdown of this system is oriented on the elements of the current civil airspace procedures. The implementation is optimized for the use on a real-time platform as part of an existing automatic flight guidance and control system. This system consists of various functionalities including an inner loop as command augmentation, basic autopilot modes, waypoint following, and automatic take-off and landing. The trajectory generation algorithm was demonstrated in flight on the experimental aircraft of the Institute of Flight System Dynamics, Technical University of Munich.

This book presents a state-of-the art collection of original contributions on democracy, addressing three related themes: the complexity of modern democracies and their structural diversity; coping strategies of democracies in times of crises; and current and potential trajectories and transformations of democracy. The first part of the book maps the democratic landscape by revealing the diversity of democratic political systems, through either comparative analysis or case studies on the specific nature of political and administrative systems in interest intermediation and identity construction. The second part presents articles that investigate the response of democracies to times of crisis, with an emphasis on political economies and policy processes within the European Union. The third part offers studies on democracies that explore their adaptive potential in the context of globalization and in that of broader technical, institutional or cultural changes.

Was ist Gesundheitspädagogik und wie kann zur Gesundheitsförderung und Prävention beigetragen werden? Gesundheit ist ein in der Gesellschaft stark diskutiertes Thema geworden. Sowohl das Gesundheitswesen allgemein als auch das persönliche Gesundheitsverhalten jedes Einzelnen stehen dabei im Fokus. Das Anliegen dieses Buches ist es pädagogisch begründete Wege für ein besseres Gesundheitsverhalten zu vermitteln. Es geht dabei um die Fragen: Wie geschieht Lernen und wie können Lernprozesse in pädagogischer Weise genutzt werden? Welche Möglichkeiten des pädagogischen Umgangs und der Kommunikation sind in besonderer Weise gesundheitsfördernd? Auch werden die wichtigsten Inhalte zur Entwicklung eines gesunden Lebensstils dargestellt und aufgezeigt auf welche Fakten dabei zu achten ist. Die im Buch dargestellten Aspekte dienen im Rahmen von Prävention und Gesundheitsförderung der Vorstellung des Arbeitsgebiets Gesundheitspädagogik. Es geht um die Akzeptanz und die praktische Förderung von Gesundheitsverhalten, sowohl bei einzelnen als auch in der Gesellschaft.
