Krev, čest a hrůza. Reprezentace pevnostní války v obléhacích denících britských obránců Bergen-op-zoom z roku 1747 / Blood, honour and horror. Representations of siege warfare in siege journals of British defenders of Bergen-op-zoom in 1747.Wohlmuth, Petr January 2015 (has links)
This Master's degree thesis, named Blood, honour and horror. Representations of siege warfare in journals of British defenders of Bergen-op-zoom in 1747, adheres at specific genre of historical anthropology of war and military. It poses questions regarding ana-lysis of contemporary culture of war and its individual variables, their interdependence and changing configuration during the siege of Bergen-op-zoom in 1747, during culmination point of War of Austrian Succession. Meaning of this text consists of an effort to discover alternative way of treating historical sources and to depart traditional conservative methods of analyzing the war conflict using national or confessional military stereotypes, essential features of key actors or theoretical normative of military science. The text comes to conclusion that most irregular and dramatic character of the siege of Bergen-op-zoom was primarily caused by profound misunderstanding between defenders and attackers regarding culture of war, especially acceptable definition of military honour and of legitimate combat techniques.

Slovenští Židé v Terezíně, Sachsenhausenu, Ravensbrücku a Bergen- Belsenu, 1944/1945 / Slovak Jews in Theresienstadt, Sachsenhausen, Ravensbrück and Bergen-Belsen, 1944/1945Putík, Daniel January 2016 (has links)
The dissertation focuses on the fates of some 5 000 men, women and children of mostly Jewish descent who were deported by German Nazi authorities from the occupied Slovak State into the Sachsenhausen, Ravensbrück, Bergen-Belsen and Theresienstadt concentration camps in the period ranging from November 1944 to the end of March 1945. The main objectives of the dissertation include the establishment of the number and identity of the deportees, the circumstances of their arrest, deportation, imprisonment and liberation as well as the causes of survival, or death, of the victims of racial persecution during the German occupation of Slovakia. Based on a comparative and content analysis of the available archival sources, oral and written testimonies by survivors and, to a limited extent, of secondary literature, the writer attempts to explain the conduct of the perpetrators and victims as well as the general historical context of the deportation and imprisonment of Slovak Jews by the Nazi regime. Based on an analysis of documents related to the anti-Jewish measures taken by the Nazi security apparatus in Slovakia with the assistance of local collaborators, more general conclusions are made with regard to the development of the Nazi "Final Solution of the Jewish Question" in the German Reich and the...

Entwicklung von standardisierten Prozessbausteinen für seilunterstützte Rettungs- und Bergeprozesse: Entwicklung von standardisierten Prozessbausteinen fürseilunterstützte Rettungs- und BergeprozesseHerold, Katrin 17 July 2007 (has links)
Die derzeitigen Probleme bei der Planung, Durchführung und Überwachung des seilunterstützten Rettens und Bergens entstehen durch die hohen Anforderungen an die Rettungsteams und die erforderlichen kurzen
Ablaufzeiten.
Einerseits sind die
• Güte der Qualifikation der Rettungsteams und der Ausbilder,
• Angemessenheit der Ausrüstung der Rettungsteams,
• tatsächliche Arbeitssicherheit der Prozesse für alle beteiligten Personen,
• tatsächliche Prozesssicherheit unterteilt nach technischer und menschlicher Zuverlässigkeit
derzeit nicht ausreichend bewertbar, und andererseits sind die technologischen Abläufe mit ihren Gefährdungs- und Gestaltungspotentialen nur einem kleinen Kreis von Fachleuten bekannt. Dieses Erfahrungswissen gilt es, für alle Anwender zu erschließen. Betrachtet man nun die große Methodenvielfalt der seilunterstützten Rettungs- und Bergeverfahren, die auftretenden Fehler bei Übungen und die Unsicherheit der Planer und überwachenden Personen dieser Verfahren bezüglich der Gefährdungen der Rettungsteams und der zu rettenden bzw. zu bergenden Personen, so zeigen sich Probleme in der Prozessgestaltung.
In dieser Arbeit wird, aufbauend auf die Standardisierung der Fertigungsverfahren, ein Baukasten-System mit standardisierten Prozessbausteinen und einem Ablaufalgorithmus zur Anwendung entwickelt, mit der die Aufbau- und Ablauforganisation der Rettungsprozesse beschrieben werden kann. Für die derzeit typischen
Rettungs- und Bergeprozesse wurden Standardprozesse entwickelt und in ihren Gültigkeitsbereichen definiert.
Der Baustein-Katalog, bestehend aus 127 Prozessbausteinen, ist an der Professur Arbeitswissenschaft der TU Chemnitz erhältlich.

Through the Lens of a Frontline Worker: The Personal Reflections of a Health Education Specialist During the COVID-19 PandemicHerring, Danielle L. January 2024 (has links)
By the end of 2020, the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), better known as COVID-19, had produced over 82,357,482 confirmed cases and 1,802,393 related deaths worldwide. The first pandemic many had ever experienced, the call of duty for public health professionals in the United States and globally was strong. While the contributions of doctors, nurses, and first responders are frequently acknowledged in the media and health-related publications, forgotten key players include health education specialists.
Because of their critical role in public health preparedness and response, special attention should be given to their work during disasters and public health emergencies. As the Screening Manager of the New Jersey Department of Health (DOH) COVID-19 Testing Center located at Bergen Community College, I observed firsthand how COVID-19 made people suffer, but also the resilience among health education specialist responders. Using narrative inquiry to detail my response experience, this dissertation offers the world my story, while highlighting the onset of the pandemic in New Jersey from March to June 2020 and the practice of incorporating relevant health education competencies.

Das Lagerstättengebiet Zobes-Bergen im Vogtland und benachbarte Uranvorkommen im Bereich des Bergener GranitmassivsHiller, Axel, Schuppan, Werner 23 March 2017 (has links)
Der Band enthält einen regionalgeologischen Überblick zur Region und die Beschreibung der Lagerstätten Zobes und Bergen sowie weiterer Uranvorkommen des Vogtlandes nach ihrem geologischem Aufbau und ihrer Erkundung. Am umfassendsten untersucht war die Gangmineralisation in der Uranlagerstätte Zobes. In ihr trat außerdem eine schichtgebundene Scheelit-Sulfid-Vererzung auf.
Nach Abschluss von Uranbergbau und -erkundung in Sachsen und Thüringen bleiben die geowissenschaftlichen Erkenntnisse und Erfahrungen von grundsätzlichem Interesse. Sie können als Grundlage für künftige regionalgeologische Forschungen und rohstofforientierte Untersuchungen dienen.

Mécanismes d'éclogitisation et conséquences mécaniques pour l'exhumation des roches métamorphiques de haute pressionRaimbourg, Hugues 28 October 2005 (has links) (PDF)
La Nappe de Lindås, au sein de l'Arc de Bergen, Norvège, est un massif anorthositique enfoui et partiellement éclogitisé en profondeur au cours de l'orogénèse calédonienne, qui fut relativement protégé de la rétromorphose pendant son retour vers la surface. L'étude de ces roches du faciès éclogitique nous permet donc de mieux comprendre le détail des processus d'éclogitisation et ses conséquences en terme d'exhumation et de circulation crustale dans les zones de collision. Les grenats granulitiques, bien que relativement résistants aux réactions métamorphiques, subissent lors de l'éclogitisation une fracturation intense et une rééquilibration partielle par diffusion à partir de leur frontière. L'observation au MEB (BSE) des différentes générations de grenat associées à l'épisode éclogitique, et l'estimation des compositions minérales d'équilibre par des méthodes thermobarométriques multi-équilibre, permet de mettre en lumière la vitesse de diffusion beaucoup plus lente du Ca par rapport aux cations métalliques dans le grenat granulitique lors de sa rééquilibration dans le faciès éclogitique. La distribution des orientations des fractures qui parcourent les grenats granulitiques hérités, montre que leur formation est la conséquence directe de la diminution de volume associée aux réactions métamorphiques. La propagation à petite échelle des domaines éclogitisés ne procède donc pas simplement par diffusion du fluide, mais par un processus complexe couplant diffusion, réactions métamorphiques et fracturation des minéraux granulitiques. La caractérisation de la cinématique de la déformation dans le faciès éclogitique de l'île d'Holsnøy, au sein de la Nappe de Lindås montre sa grande cohérence à l'échelle de la zone d'étude (5*5 km), reflétant l'action de forces aux limites, plutôt que de contraintes locales liées aux réactions métamorphiques. Le cisaillement en moyenne vers l'Est, géométriquement restauré dans le contexte de la subduction calédonienne, est interprété comme reflétant le découplage d'unités crustales du panneau plongeant, qui commencent ainsi leur retour vers la surface. La validité d'un tel modèle, où l'éclogitisation permet l'initiation de l'exhumation, est analysée dans le cadre du modèle analytique du chenal de subduction. L'éclogitisation, qui n'est ni instantanée ni spatialement homogène, modifie les propriétés de la croûte, notamment sa densité et sa viscosité. Alors que l'augmentation de densité réduit sa flottabilité, son adoucissement mécanique lui permet de se découpler du manteau lithosphérique qui la tire vers la profondeur. La compétition entre ces deux phénomènes, variable suivant la progression des transformations métamorphiques, est intégrée dans un unique paramètre adimensionnel, le nombre d'exhumation, dont la valeur décrit la capacité de la croûte à être exhumée. La subduction d'une croûte à fort nombre d'exhumation entraîne la création dans le canal de subduction d'un flux retour à partir du domaine partiellement éclogitisé. L'analyse des conditions de ce flux retour montre entre autres que les vitesses d'exhumation de l'ordre des vitesses de convergence des plaques lithosphériques ne sont possibles que pendant le régime transitoire entre l'enfouissement de croûte à faible et fort nombre d'exhumation. Ce travail, qui montre l'importance des réactions d'éclogitisation pour l'exhumation et plus généralement pour la dynamique des zones de collision, souligne en conséquence la nécessité de décrire avec précision les mécanismes micro- et macroscopiques qui permettent la progression et la propagation de l'éclogitisation.

Paleoethnobotany and household archaeology at the Bergen site : a Middle Holocene occupation in the Fort Rock Basin, OregonHelzer, Margaret Mary, 1963- 12 1900 (has links)
xv, 296 p. : ill. (some col.) A print copy of this thesis is available through the UO Libraries under the call number: KNIGHT E78.O6 H44 2001 / This study analyzes the botanical and archaeological material from a Middle Holocene occupation at the Bergen site, located in the Fort Rock Basin, Oregon. It serves to complement and enhance over a decade of research focused on regional settlement patterns in the Northern Great Basin. While previous studies in the region have focused on broadly based settlement patterns, this study shifted the interpretive lens toward an in-depth analysis of a single family dwelling, which was occupied some 6000 years ago. It thus introduces the domain of "household archaeology" into the practice of archaeological research in the Northern Great Basin for the first time. Macrobotanical analysis was conducted on 215 soil samples collected on a 50cm grid from this house. An additional 20 samples were analyzed from a second house structure at the site.
These analyses have provided evidence of diet, environment, and social behavior associated with the prehistoric occupants of the house. The abundance of charred bulrush (Scirpus ), goosefoot (Chenopodium ), and waada (Suaeda ) seeds in the deposits indicate that small seeds of wetland-adapted plants were an important dietary resource during the Middle Holocene in the Fort Rock Basin.
The patterned distribution of botanical material in 215 soil samples across the floor of the house provide strong evidence of prehistoric human activity areas. The highest concentration of seeds and charcoal in the house was located near the central fire hearth, where cooking and food preparation took place. An east-facing entryway is suggested by the presence of a secondary concentration of seeds and charcoal on the eastern edge of the structure. Analysis also revealed a differential distribution of seed types across the house floor. Higher concentrations of bulrush in the northern area of the floor, away from the hearth, suggest the presence of sleeping mats.
Results of this study indicate that plant remains are not evenly distributed through archaeological deposits, therefore care must be taken when sampling for macrobotanical remains. Research at the Bergen site provides the basis for recommendations to assist future archaeologists in determining the best and most cost-effective locations within excavations to take macrobotanical samples. / Committee in charge: Dr. C.

Breakdown and Adaptation: The Western Allies and the Liberation of the Concentration CampsReeves, Jeremy Ray 07 1900 (has links)
In mid-April 1945, US and UK forces swept through Germany. The Western Allies had spent years preparing for the moment, cultivating a civil affairs capacity since the Interwar Period and devoting thousands of hours to planning for the occupation. However, the rapid pace of the advance stretched the new capability beyond its limits as frontline forces seized large swaths of Germany and encountered exponentially increasing numbers of displaced persons. The accidental discoveries of Buchenwald and Bergen-Belsen and the tens of thousands of survivors suffering appalling levels of starvation and disease overwhelmed the forces dispatched to address the sites, resulting in a sluggish response. Significant flaws in Allied planning assumptions caused the breakdown that potentially cost hundreds of unnecessary deaths. Yet, operational staff officers from the Supreme Headquarters down to the division level recognized the poor response and, in two short weeks, adapted the plan to address the conditions on the front. Policy adjustments and messages from General Eisenhower removed ambiguity in existing guidance and provided clear direction to frontline forces. More importantly, the Western Allies formally merged the campaign plan guiding combat operations, OVERLORD, with the plan for occupation, ECLIPSE. The changes produced a marked improvement in the US liberation of Dachau on 29 April 1945, thereby demonstrating adaptation and innovation at the operational level of war.

Židé v poválečném Československu / The Jews of Czechoslovakia after WWIISušilová, Radana January 2011 (has links)
The thesis Jews in Czechoslovakia after WWII deals with the situation of the Czech and Moravian Jews after the WWII. It looks into the problems of the Jews liberated in the concentration camps and their process of repatriation and the problems, which were connected with their's adaptation to the society in Czechoslovakia. It follows the work of the Czech repatriation authorities and foreign Jewish organizations, which helped the Jews to adapt into the Czechoslovakia society. The thesis puts emphasizes on the differences between the behavior of the Jewish community in Prague and the Czech bureaus, which were obvious in the period of the return of the Jews to Czechoslovakia after the WWII. It also deals with the situation of the Jews from Carpathian Ruthenia and the Jews with German nationality, whose conditions where much more difficult.
