This open access book presents the exciting research results of the BMBF funded project iCity carried out at University of Applied Science Stuttgart to help cities to become more liveable, intelligent and sustainable, to become a LIScity. The research has been pursued with industry partners and NGOs from 2017 to 2020. A LIScity is increasingly digitally networked, uses resources efficiently, and implements intelligent mobility concepts. It guarantees the supply of its grid-bound infrastructure with a high proportion of renewable energy. Intelligent cities are increasingly human-centered, integrative, and flexible, thus placing the well-being of the citizens at the center of developments to i...

These strategic alliances are justifiably hailed by many as the competitive weapon of the 1990s. But because they are blurring and reshaping the very structure and boundaries of corporations in unprecedented ways, the process of designing and managing these alliances confronts managers with the awesome task of inventing theory and practice on a daily basis. Up to now, they have had few places to turn for guidance.

Dieser Band der Reihe Fachwissen Technische Akustik behandelt die in der Bauakustik meistverbreiteten Messmethoden, vom theoretischen Hintergrund über anwendungspraktische Fragestellungen bis hin zu den nationalen und internationalen Normen. Die Normenreihe der DIN EN ISO 12354 dient dabei als roter Faden, da sie die messbaren Größen der Bauakustik in einen Gesamtzusammenhang bringt. Ausgehend von den Aufgabenstellungen der bauakustischen Messtechnik werden die in Frage kommenden Kenngrößen erläutert. Ein wesentlicher Aspekt ist der Zusammenhang zu den bestehenden nationalen und internationalen Normen. Schwerpunktmäßig werden die Grundprinzipien der Luft- und Trittschalldämmung beha...
