Die Blended Wing Body (BWB) Flugzeugkonfiguration
, 2006 Wir sind fasziniert von der Größe eines Airbus A380 - ein Superlativ im Passagierflugzeugbau. Gleichzeitig stellen wir uns die Fragen: Könnten Flugzeuge sinnvollerweise auch noch größer gebaut werden? Wie sieht das Flugzeug der Zukunft aus? Weltweit geht man auch in Industrie, Großforschungseinrichtungen und Hochschulen diesen Fragen nach.

Formation of Distance‐Based Orientation: Political Identity through Relational Positioning in Israel
Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.Distance‐based orientation describes how pejorative labels may serve as anchor points for political identity. Existing research on political labeling has largely emphasized stigmatization, overlooking how labels may acquire durability and orienting capacity without losing pejorative force. Drawing on publicly circulating discourse, we trace positioning

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.Abstract This article examines how online tutoring platforms (OTPs) have facilitated new forms of (im)mobility—and discourses of (im)mobility—among online English tutors. Drawing on semi‐structured interviews with online tutors, the article critically interrogates OTPs' primary selling point: that online tutors can work “anytime, anywhere.” While OTPs ...

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Renewable energy is vital for reducing carbon emissions and yet its infrastructure poses challenges to biodiversity. While the impacts of wind power on bats and raptors are well‐studied, the effects on elusive species remain largely unknown. The Eurasian woodcock Scolopax rusticola, a nocturnal forest bird, performs characteristic courtship flights at ...
