Textsorte „Zooführer“: nicht nur über Tiere. Linguostilistische Charakteristika von Werbeanzeigen, Vorwort und Verhaltensordnung in deutschsprachigen Zooführern / “Zoo guidebook” Genre: it Is not Just about Animals. Linguostylistic Characteristics of Advertising Messages, Introduction and Rules of Visitors’ Behaviour in German Zoo Guidebooks [PDF]
This paper presents selected results of the dissertation which deals with stylistic peculiarities of German zoo guidebooks. The research was carried out within the framework of the German pragmatic stylistics paradigm and based on an integrative approach

Asia-Pacific zoos in the 21st century : stakeholder perceptions of the roles and functions of zoos : a thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Management at Massey University, New Zealand [PDF]
The advent of the anthropocene accentuates the transformation of ecosystems on a global scale. This study responds to these concerns by assessing the role and function of 21st century zoos in general and the Asia-Pacific zoos in particular. The lack of

Spatio-temporal Constraints on the Zoo Hypothesis, and the Breakdown of Total Hegemony
The Zoo Hypothesis posits that we have not detected extraterrestrial intelligences (ETIs) because they deliberately prevent us from detecting them. While a valid solution to Fermi's Paradox, it is not particularly amenable to rigorous scientific analysis,

The Elephant Trunk Skin Inspires a Highly Sensitive and Deformable, Yet Robust, Armor Skin
The study presents the elephant trunk‐inspired armor skin with tactile sensing (ETATS). The ETATS architecture stretches and compresses while resisting puncture and tear, and it enables optical detection of pressure and lateral strain. Morphology‐based decoupling of strain and pressure paves the way to sensitive and deformable, yet robust, soft‐robotic

Advancing Energy Materials by In Situ Atomic Scale Methods
Progress in in situ atomic scale methods leads to an improved understanding of new and advanced energy materials, where a local understanding of complex, inhomogeneous systems or interfaces down to the atomic scale and quantum level is required. Topics from photovoltaics, dissipation losses, phase transitions, and chemical energy conversion are ...

This study introduces a data‐driven framework that combines deep reinforcement learning with classical path planning to achieve adaptive microrobot navigation. By training a surrogate neural network to emulate microrobot dynamics, the approach improves learning efficiency, reduces training time, and enables robust real‐time obstacle avoidance in ...
