Sommario/riassunto |
|
This work arose from research results of the interdisciplinary centre for scientific computing at the University of Heidelberg as well as of the Humboldt University. The contribution of this work is the simulation of contaminated ground water developed from models about the disposal of severely contaminated material, i.e. radioactive fuels or chemical waste products. The model is based on equations for convection-diffusion-dispersion reactions. The equation in the present book is used for the modelling of a radionuclide transport of pollutants in ground water as well as for chemical irreversible reactions. While solving such problems, so-called multi-scale processes arise. Conventional treatment of black-box discretisation and solution methods are impossible or complicated. Hence, physically motivated methods are used, i.e. to integrate one-dimensional analytical solutions of convection-reaction equations. Especially so-called decomposition methods were emphasized.These methods decouple the different scales and solve the equations based on scales with each other. Therefore the previous coupling errors between the terms of the equations can be controlled and minimised with iterative methods. Furthermore, analytical solutions could be used for comparisons with the numerical solutions. In this work the theoretical derivations of solutions as well as their application in numerical methods for realistic calculations could be acquired. The methods were assembled in a program package that had been developed in a project to evolve a program for modelling the transport of pollutants in ground water. Some realistic damage events could be calculated based on dates from the partner GRS in Braunschweig, Germany. |

Sommario/riassunto |

‘This is the smoking gun of all your research.’ Professor Richard E. Holmes (18 February 2001). Birds of Prey is a microhistory of the Nazi occupation of Białowieźa Forest, Poland’s national park. The narrative stretches from Göring’s palatial lifestyle to the common soldier on the ground killing Jews, partisans, and civilians. Based entirely on previously unpublished sources, the book is the synthesis of six areas |

of research: Hitler’s Luftwaffe, the hunt and environmental history, military geography, Colonialism and Nazi Lebensraum, the Holocaust, and the war in the East. By weaving together a narrative about Hermann Göring, his inner circle, and ordinary soldiers, the book reveals the Nazi ambition to draw together East Prussia, the Bialystok region, and Ukraine into a common eastern frontier of the Greater German state, revealing how the Luftwaffe, the German hunt, and the state forestry were institutional perpetrators of Lebensraum and genocide. Up until now the Luftwaffe had not been identified in specific acts of genocide or placed at large scale killings of Jews, civilians, and partisans. This gap in the historical record had been facilitated by the destruction of the Luftwaffe’s records in 1945. Through a forensic and painstaking process of piecing together scraps of evidence over two decades, and utilizing Geographical Information System software, Philip W. Blood managed to decipher previously obscure reports and expose patterns of Nazi atrocities. |
