Abstract:
The relatively new comedy genre stand-up comedy is just beginning to attract the attention of researchers from different areas of linguistics. A comparative linguistic and cultural analysis of selected sketches of the Russian and German stand-up comedians is aimed to establish universal and dissimilar typological features of the genre in two linguistic cultures, identify the reception of national culture of laughter in the genre, manifested in the subject of sketches, as well as compare the use of mechanisms for creating and perceiving verbal humor (incongruity theories, hostility theories and release theories) on the material of 20 selected sketches by P. Volya and M. Mittermeier. It was discovered that certain topics that both comics involved to laugh at were similar (new trends in technical sphere, automobiles, holidays and rest) while others varied (social tension, feminism, male and female relations, financial instability).

Abstract:
The goal of this paper is to compare the cost efficiency of the automobile industry in Germany and Japan during the period of 1980–2014 by applying the Meta-Frontier Cost Function. Despite the constant competition and the global automobile industry crisis during 2008-2010, only a few existing studies compare the efficiency of the industry cross countries. However, these all fail to address various types of technology adopted and the environment faced by automakers across countries. The meta-frontier model became a recognized and useful tool to evaluate technical efficiency of firms applying dissimilar technologies. Overall, the results signify that the cost efficiency of the German automobile industry by average is better than that of the Japanese one and the German one uses more superior production technique though it was lower the Japanese one in the 1980s. The difference reversed in the 1990s and has been enlarging since the 1990s to the end of the observation period.

Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to show how the National Socialist regime participated in popular commercial events such as trade fairs to posture their propaganda. I demonstrate how the inter-trade organization and one particular company – Daimler-Benz AG – tailored their advertising to the communication strategies used by the Nazi regime. Design/methodology/approach – This case study is based on the archival records of Daimler AG. The way in which the 50th anniversary of the automobile was staged at the Berlin Motor Shows of 1935 and 1936 is understood as part of the communication strategies of the German automotive industry, as well as of the Nazi regime. Findings – This paper shows how intimately connected the 50th anniversary of the automobile was to the themes of racing and motorization. The automobile as a German invention had the potential to reconcile the motorization of the German people – a sign of modernity – with the blood and soil ideology of the Nazis. The Berlin Auto Show became an important platform for this project. The paper also shows how Daimler-Benz’s approach should be read differently. Originality/value – The article sheds new light on the interaction between and inter-dependence of one particular company’s – Daimler-Benz AG’s – communication strategies and those of the Nazi regime. Furthermore, the 50th anniversary of the automobile, celebrated at the auto show in Berlin, provides a good opportunity to add exhibitions to of advertising history of the 1930 Germany.

Abstract:
Since German unification, assessments of the German economy have swung from “sick man of the euro” in the early years to dominant hegemon of late. I argue that the German economy appears strong because of its recent positive performance in two politically salient areas: unemployment and the current account. A deeper assessment reveals, however, that German economic performance cannot be considered a second economic miracle, but is at best a mini miracle. The reduction in unemployment is an important achievement. That said, it was not the product of faster growth, but of sharing the same volume of work among more individuals. Germany’s current account surpluses are as much the result of weak domestic demand as of export prowess. Germany has also logged middling performances in recent years regarding growth, investment, productivity, and compensation. The article also reviews seven challenges Germany has faced since unification: financial transfers from west to east, the global financial crisis, the euro crisis, internal and external migration, demographics, climate change, and upheavals in the automobile industry. German policy-makers managed the first four challenges largely successfully. The latter three will be more difficult to tackle in the future.

Abstract:
The essay analyzes the interrelationship between media technologies and the development of mobility based on a concrete historical constellation—the emergence of automobilism and its representation in literature and film between 1900 and 1920. The focus lies on Western European countries and most notably on Italian and German literature as well as British, German, and French films. During that period, the portrayal of the automobile in these countries shows a dominant pattern: due to their speed, cars seem to embody a destructive power per se. This is expressed by numerous violence-related scenarios. However, the accentuation of destructive tendencies cannot only be described as a response to increased risks. Rather, they are a product of media technologies and media-specific aesthetics, too: film, establishing itself as a new media form experimenting with “dynamization“ and destruction; and literature, responding to the new visual media using dynamic language and the demolition of traditional poetic forms. Consequently, the noticeable surge in technology around 1900 created new and different types of mobility in the areas of transportation and media, influencing each other.

Abstract:
This paper describes the new approaches the German automobile industry has developed during the last four years. It deals with product strategy, production concepts, work organization, industrial relations and technology. In the automobile industry, team concepts and groupwork have been the most important innovations in increasing efficiency. There are two fundamentally different approaches to team work The concept of ‘structurally conservative groupwork’ is a more or less modernized version of Taylorism. The job descriptions of production workers remain narrow, there is not much work autonomy and no reprofessionalization. By contrast, ‘structurally innovative groupwork’ builds on the specific assets of the German industrial order: the tradition of craft work (Facharbeiter), the strong focus on qualified, self-directed work, and the consensus orientation in the field of industrial relations.

Abstract:
This paper examines the impact of model update/renewal among three German car manufactures BMW, Audi, and Mercedes-Benz. The data set controls for the year effect from 1970 to 2017, and the model effect of the nine different models. Using a fixed effect penal data model, it is concluded that the update will lift the sales of the models in the two years following the year of update. Additionally, the sales of competitor models will decrease in the year of the update, and the following year. Finally, by studying the year effect, it is observed that the new market release usually arrives in the expansion phase of the bigger market.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis consists of four essays that study the effect of demand and supply shocks (namely exchange rate shocks, policy shocks and oil price shocks) on the German automobile industry using time series analysis techniques; i.a. intervention analysis, (time-varying) VAR models, state space modeling and Kalman filtering. Chapter 2 investigates the degree of (EUR/USD) exchange rate susceptibility of the German automobile industry (and mechanical engineering industry). It is shown that – in contrast to well-known warnings by business representatives and politicians alike – an appreciation of the Euro does not necessarily cause German vehicle producing companies “pain” in the sense of an aggravated business climate (although the (quantity) effects on exports are as predicted by theory). Chapter 3 first of all deals with the effect of the global economic crisis on the German manufacturing sector in general and the German automobile industry in particular. Even more important, the influence of the scrapping scheme, that was introduced as part of the “Konjunkturpaket II” in 2009, is researched. Chapter 4 focusses on the role of (systematic) monetary policy as well as the automobile industry in the transmission of oil price shocks to the economy. Chapter 5 extends the results of chapter 4 by examining carefully the role of fuel-efficiency in explaining the different degrees of sensitivity of the vehicle industries in Germany, Japan and the US with regard to oil price shocks.

Abstract:
Growing markets and fast discontinuous changes challenge companies to stay in line with their goals and maintain their market share. The environmental dynamism, complexity and hostility are aspects that require strategical preparation to maintain success on the market. Companies need not only to manage the continuous adaptation to incremental change but also the ability to detect discontinuities early and manage them through their corporate strategy and innovation management. The process of detecting, interpreting and reacting to changes can be referred to as corporate foresight. This study analysis a German automotive supplier regarding their current foresight capabilities and will derive with an assessment within their competitive surrounding. This study assesses the corporate foresight capabilities of a company in a qualitative approach by conducting interviews with employees and further secondary quantitative insights from survey results. In collaboration with the consulting firm Rohrbeck & Heger and their gathered data sets, further insights about the competitive situation of the company could be derived. The final assessment presents insights whereas the automotive supplier is lacking in specific aspects in contrast to the diverse competition but also delivers actions steps to lower the weak spots the firm currently demonstrates.

Abstract:

Recently, both company executives as well as national media have claimed that short currency exchange rate fluctuations are negatively affecting the stock returns of certain firms. However, most previous studies focusing on companies in the US and Asia have been unable to find empirical support for a statistically significant linkage between firm value and exchange rate risk. By using a quantitative method with a deductive approach,the present research investigates if currency exchange rate movements impact the stock return of European based car companies with market interests in the US. By selecting French Renault and Peugeot, German Audi and BMW and Swedish Saab and Volvo, we were able to analyze three currencies exchange rates in our study: SEK/USD, SEK/Euro and Euro/USD. In addition, we included three macroeconomic factors: GDP, stock market index and Oil price to perform a multiple regression analysis. In consistency with the earlier studies, our results indicate that for five out of the six investigated companies, short movements in the three exchange rates do not significantly affect the stock returns of the companies investigated. By analyzing the annual report of the investigated companies, we found that derivatives instruments such as currency option, foreign exchange forwards, currency futures and currency swaps were used to hedge exchange risk. This might be one of the reasons why it was difficult to capture exchange rate risk. The fact that BMW was the only company showing a significant effect could indicate that the company is not applying the accurate hedging strategy. Another reason might be that the company is more exposed to exchange risk due to its large exporting activity compared to the other investigated companies.

Abstract:
Diese Dissertation quantifiziert die Zahlungsbereitschaft (ZB) der Konsumenten für die Verbesserung des Kraftstoffverbrauchs von Personenkraftwagen (PKW) und untersucht die Faktoren, die den unterschiedlichen Verbraucherbewertungen dieser Verbesserungen zugrunde liegen. Die Arbeit besteht aus drei eigenständigen Aufsätze, deren wissenschaftlichen Beiträge sowohl im inhaltlichen als auch im methodischen Bereich liegen. Auf der methodischen Seite nutzt die Arbeit verschiedene Datentypen und statistische Verfahren, um die ZB-Werte zu ermitteln. Inhaltlich werden in der Arbeit die Auswirkungen verschiedener Faktoren untersucht, von denen einige in der Literatur noch nicht oder nur teilweise im Zusammenhang mit der ZB für Kraftstoffeffizienz erforscht wurden. Der erste Aufsatz untersucht die Auswirkungen von Kraftstoffpreisen auf den Marktwert der Kraftstoffeffizienz. Dabei wird zwischen Änderungen im Budget für die Nutzung eines Autos mit niedrigerem Kraftstoffverbrauch und Änderungen im Budget für dessen Kauf unterschieden. Anhand offenbarter Präferenzdaten in Form aggregierter Marktdaten wird analysiert, wie sich die Unterschiede in den Fahrzeugattributen im Preis widerspiegeln und wie Änderungen der Kraftstoffpreise die ZB für den Kraftstoffeffizienz beeinflussen. Die Untersuchung im zweiten Aufsatz basiert ebenfalls auf offenbarten Präferenzdaten, aber auf individueller Ebene. Diese Art von Daten ermöglicht es, die individuelle Bewertung der Kraftstoffeffizienz zu ermitteln und die Heterogenität der Verbraucher bezüglich ihrer Zahlungsbereitschaft mit beobachteten verbraucher- und transaktionsspezifischen Merkmalen in Beziehung zu setzen. Der dritte Aufsatz quantifiziert die Unterschiede in den Präferenzen der Verbraucher für identische Verbesserungen des Kraftstoffverbrauchs sowie der CO2-Emissionen mit Hilfe von wahlbasierten Conjoint-Experimenten. Die Rolle der individuellen Merkmale in der ZB von Verbrauchern wird zusätzlich untersucht.
The present thesis quantifies the consumers' willingness-to-pay (WTP) for improvements in fuel efficiency of passenger cars with gasoline and diesel engines at the German automobile market and explores factors related to consumers' differences in the valuation of these improvements. The thesis consists of three self-contained essays with the contributions in both the conceptual and the methodological domain. Methodologically, the thesis exploits various data types and statistical techniques to elicit the WTP values, whereas conceptually, it considers the effects of various determinants, some of which have not yet or only partially been studied in the literature on the consumer valuation of fuel efficiency. The first essay investigates the effects of fuel prices on the market value of fuel economy while distinguishing between changes in the budget for driving a car with better fuel economy and changes in capital investments in better car quality. Revealed preference data, in the form of aggregate market data on vehicle prices and attributes for diesel and gasoline cars, are used to analyze how the differences in attributes of cars are reflected in their prices and to explore co-movements of the vehicle price sensitivity to fuel economy with changes in fuel prices. The investigation in the second essay is also based on revealed preference data, but from the observed car purchase transactions at the individual level. This type of data allows to recover the individual valuation of fuel efficiency and to relate the recovered heterogeneity in consumers' WTP for a reduction in fuel costs to the observed consumer- and purchase-related characteristics. The third essay quantifies the differences in consumers' preferences for identical improvements in FC and CO2 emissions using stated preference data. The role of individual characteristics in the consumers' WTP for these environmentally important attributes is additionally studied.

Abstract:
In their respective design processes automobile manufacturers use more and more virtual prototyping. Today, even some design decisions are made, based on purely digital vehicle models. This is a report of a recent study, which was done with a German car manufacturer, that has looked into different academic disciplines besides computer science, to find new ways to vitalize and stage digital vehicle models. Usability engineering, psychology, dramatics, and theater teaching were consulted. As a result a novel workflow pattern is proposed, exemplarily conceptualized for Design Reviews of automobiles. It embeds the use of Virtual Reality (VR) or Mixed Reality (MR) between Briefing and Debriefing phases, to give the users a chance for preparing and postprocessing the digital experience. This workflow pattern and its pragmatic conception are introduced in this paper.

Abstract:
On-board storage and handling of hydrogen continues to be a major challenge on the road to the widespread commercialization of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. QUANTUM Fuel Systems Technologies WorldWide, Inc. (QUANTUM) is developing a number of advanced technologies in response to the demand by its customers for compact, lightweight, safe, robust, and cost-effective hydrogen fuel systems. QUANTUM approaches hydrogen storage and handling as an engineered system integrated into the design of the vehicle. These engineered systems comprise advanced storage, regulation, metering, and electronic controls developed by QUANTUM. In 2001, QUANTUM validated, commercialized, and began production of lightweight compressed hydrogen storage systems. The first commercial products include storage technologies that achieved 7.5 to 8.5 percent hydrogen storage by weight at 350 bar (5,000 psi). QUANTUM has also received German TUV regulatory approval for its 700 bar (10,000-psi) TriShield10™ hydrogen storage cylinder, based on hydrogen standards developed by the European Integrated Hydrogen Project (EIHP). QUANTUM has patented an In-Tank Regulator for use with hydrogen and CNG, which have applications in both fuel cell and alternative fuel vehicle markets. To supplement the inherent safety features designed into the new 700 bar storage tank, QUANTUM’s patented 700 bar In-Tank Regulator provides additional safety by confining the high pressure in the tank and allowing only a maximum delivery pressure of 10 bar (150-psi) outside the storage system. This paper describes initial applications for these hydrogen fuel systems, which have included fuel cell automobiles, buses, and hydrogen refueling stations.

Abstract:
A computational study of unsteady, separated fluid flow was made using the Large Eddy Simulation (LES). As flow problem the turbulent flow past a circular cylinder at a Reynolds number of Re = 3900 was chosen. The objective of this work was to study the numerical and modelling aspects of the dynamic Germano-LES turbulence model. Before LES can be used for applications of practical relevance, such as the flow around a complete aircraft or automobile, extensive tests must be carried out on simpler configurations to understand the quality of LES. Also, the influence of different grid resolutions was examined. Due to the fact of a low Reynolds number, no-slip boundary conditions were used at solid walls. Two different subgrid scale models were applied. In recent years several simulations were carried out using the Smagorinsky-LES model but there is still a lack of experience using the dynamic Germano-LES model, which takes the local flow parameters into account. Several simulations with different parameters and grid-models were carried out both with the Germano-LES model and the Smagorinsky-LES model. Comparisons were made between these two models as well as with several experimental data taken from literature.

Abstract:
This paper describes the modeling and validation of the new WorldSID 50th percentile male dummy (WorldSID50) model for the Abaqus finite element (FE) software suite [1]. The Abaqus WorldSID50 model has been developed by Dassault Syste`mes Simulia Corp. in cooperation with the Partnership for Dummy Technology and Biomechanics (PDB), a consortium that includes the following German automobile manufacturers: Audi, BMW, Daimler, Porsche, and Volkswagen. The objective of the dummy development project was to develop a robust virtual dummy model that closely mimics the behavior of the hardware dummy in order to minimize the need for physical testing during vehicle design. Data obtained through extensive experimental tests performed at all levels of the dummy assembly — material coupon, component, sub-assembly, and full dummy — were used to calibrate and validate the finite element model. The Abaqus WorldSID50 model results show good correlation with the hardware dummy output signals for a wide range of tests. The Abaqus WorldSID50 model was approved for use in production by the PDB.

Abstract:
A very promising method for the conversion and storage of solar energy into a fuel is the dissociation of water to oxygen and hydrogen, carried out via a two-step process using metal oxide redox systems such as mixed iron oxides, coated upon multi-channeled honeycomb ceramic supports capable of absorbing solar irradiation, in a configuration similar to that encountered in automobile exhaust catalytic converters. With this configuration, the whole process can be carried out in a single solar energy converter, the process temperature can be significantly lowered compared to other thermo-chemical cycles and the re-combination of oxygen and hydrogen is prevented by fixing the oxygen in the metal oxide. For the realization of the integrated concept, research work proceeded in three parallel directions: synthesis of active redox systems, manufacture of ceramic honeycomb supports and manufacture, testing and optimization of operating conditions of a thermochemical solar receiver-reactor. The receiver-reactor has been developed and installed in the solar furnace in Cologne, Germany. It was proven that solar hydrogen production is feasible by this process demonstrating that multi cycling of the process was possible in principle.

Abstract:
Abstract Industrial enterprises see themselves confronted with a complexity of products and production processes, which became almost uncontrollable. Individualization and globalization of the demand will continue to increase, so that the existing variety of the product variants presumably cannot be reduced significantly. Attainable are however a strong weakening of the variety increase and a reduction of the internal complexity. Results from numerous analysis projects in the automobile industry show that substantial potentials (on the average 64%) for the reduction of the complexity are present in areas without impact on the degree of fulfillment of customer requirements (engine, axles, raw body, etc.). Even higher potentials are realizable by an intensive cooperation between manufacturers and suppliers. This paper introduces the Variant Mode and Effects Analysis (VMEA), which is a proven method to reduce the number of variants and, therefore, the complexity and complexity-related costs throughout the whole development and manufacturing processes. The method includes a systematic analysis of market requirements and a systematic assignment of market requirements to product functions, modules and parts, thereby enabling the user to develop a modularized, market-oriented product structure designed for meeting the market demands with the smallest number of product variants possible. The results presented in this paper were obtained in a series of twenty cooperation projects involving ten medium-sized German manufacturers of cars and automotive supplies, among them Audi AG, BMW AG, Volkswagen AG, Volvo and Micro Compact Car.
