The phenomenon of acoustic scattering, when a sound wave bounces off a surface and is redirected in different directions because of the surface texture, has been recognized since ancient Greece. Accounting for acoustic scattering when designing a built space, however, can be tricky. In this episode, we speak with Michael Vorländer (RWTH Aachen University) about his work to develop a general guideline for estimating the effects of acoustic scattering from a given surface.Associated paper: Michael Vorlaender and Stefan Feistel.

A centuries-old example of Chinese urban planning and architecture has received global recognition.我国中国历代古都中轴线的集大成者和建筑典范获得了全球认可。 The 46th session of the World Heritage Committee in New Delhi, India, announced on Saturday that the Beijing Central Axis — "A Building Ensemble Exhibiting the Ideal Order of the Chinese Capital" — has been inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List, becoming China's 59th World Heritage Site.7月27日，在印度首都新德里举行的联合国教科文组织第46届世界遗产大会上，我国申报的“北京中轴线——中国理想都城秩序的杰作”被正式列入《世界遗产名录》，截至目前，我国世界遗产数量达到59项。 The Central Axis in Beijing is an ensemble of palaces, public buildings and gardens that governs the overall layout of the old city area of the Chinese capital.北京中轴线是由宫殿、公共建筑和园林组成的综合体，管理着老北京的整体布局。 Stretching 7.8 kilometers north to south through the heart of Beijing, the newly inscribed World Heritage Site comprises 15 components. At the northern end of the axis are the Bell Tower and Drum Tower. It then runs south through Wanning Bridge, Jingshan Hill, the Forbidden City, the Upright Gate, the Tian'anmen Gate, the Outer Jinshui Bridges, the Tian'anmen Square Complex, the Zhengyangmen Gate, the Southern Section Road Archaeological Sites, before terminating at the Yongdingmen Gate at the southern end. The Imperial Ancestral Temple, the Altar of Land and Grain, the Temple of Heaven, and the Altar of the God of Agriculture are located on the east and west sides of the Axis.北京中轴线北起钟鼓楼，南至永定门，全长7.8公里，包含15处遗产构成要素。轴线的北端是钟楼和鼓楼。从这里出发，径直向南，可依次穿越万宁桥、景山、故宫、端门、天安门、外金水桥、天安门广场及建筑群、正阳门、中轴线南段道路遗存，直至永定门。全程7.8公里的中轴线两侧，闻名世界的文物古建鳞次栉比，蔚为大观。 The complex comprises imperial palaces and gardens, imperial sacrificial buildings, ancient city management facilities, national ceremonial and public buildings and remains of the original central axis roads.该建筑群包括皇宫和园林、皇家祭祀建筑、古城管理设施、国家仪式和公共建筑，以及中轴线道路遗迹。 "It is an important symbol that embodies prominent characteristics of Chinese civilization, highlighting Beijing's exceptional status among the famous ancient capitals of the world," Li Qun, director of the National Cultural Heritage Administration, said in an interview with China Global Television Network on Saturday in New Delhi. "It has had a profound impact on the history of urban planning and construction worldwide and serves as a Chinese case for the preservation and sustainable protection of ancient capitals," Li added.7月27日，国家文物局局长李群在新德里接受中国国际电视台采访时说：“这是一个重要的象征，体现了中华文明的突出特征，突显了北京在世界著名古都中的特殊地位。北京中轴线对世界城市规划和建设产生了深远的影响，是中国保护古都的典范。” Construction of the Central Axis began in the 13th century and was completed in the 16th century. It has undergone constant refinement over the past centuries and continues to influence Beijing's urban development to this day.北京中轴线的建设始于13世纪，16世纪成型。在过去七个世纪中，它不断得到完善，至今仍在影响着北京的城市发展。The World Heritage Committee acknowledged that the Central Axis in Beijing meets the World Heritage List selectioncriteria No 3 and No 4: It bears unique or exceptional testimony to a cultural tradition or to a civilization that is living or has disappeared, and is an outstanding example of a type of building, architectural or technological ensemble or landscape that illustrates significant stage or stages in human history.世界遗产委员会承认，北京中轴线符合《世界遗产名录》评选标准的第3、4条：能为一种已消逝的文明或文化传统提供一种独特的至少是特殊的见证；可作为一种建筑或建筑群或景观的杰出范例，展示出人类历史上一个(或几个)重要阶段； Ernesto Ottone, UNESCO's assistant director-general for culture, speaking at a celebratory event in New Delhi later on Saturday, said that Beijing's intricate urban planning draws inspiration from Confucian philosophy with a history spanning thousands of years and which flourishes even today. The preservation and design of urban heritage are not only about protecting the past but also about constructing a better future, he added.7月27日晚，联合国教科文组织文化助理总干事埃内斯托·奥托内（Ernesto Ottone）在新德里发表讲话时说，北京错综复杂的城市规划从数千年的儒家哲学中汲取灵感。城市遗产的保护和设计不仅是为了保护过去，更是为了建设一个更美好的未来。 According to the National Cultural Heritage Administration, the Central Axis in Beijing provides exceptional material testimony to the philosophy of "neutrality and harmony" prized in Chinese tradition. It is an outstanding example representing the mature stage of the urban central axis of Chinese capitals, and also the best-preserved capital central axis in China.中华人民共和国国家文物局表示，北京中轴线为中国传统中所珍视的“中和”哲学提供了非凡的物质证明。它是中国首都城市中轴线成熟阶段的杰出代表，也是中国保存最完好的首都中轴线。 " (The Beijing Central Axis) is the product of some of the best urban planning in history," said Christa Reicher, a professor at RWTH Aachen University in Germany and a UNESCO chair for cultural heritage and urbanism, in an interview with Xinhua. "It is regarded as the 'spine of the city's culture' and a magnet for tourists from all over the world."德国亚琛工业大学教授、联合国教科文组织文化遗产和城市规划教席克里斯塔·莱歇尔（Christa Reicher）在接受新华社采访时表示：“（北京中轴线）是历史上最好的城市规划的产物，被视为‘城市文化的脊梁'，吸引着来自世界各地的游客。” Lyu Zhou, director of the National Heritage Center at Tsinghua University, said that this paradigm of city planning can be traced back to Kaogongji (Book of Diverse Crafts), a section of the Confucian classic Rites of Zhou that was compiled more than 2,000 years ago. The milestone work outlines the rituals and order in the planning of a capital city.清华大学国家遗产中心主任吕舟表示，这种城市规划范例可以追溯到公元前221年之前编写的《考工记》，该书概述了首都规划中的礼仪和秩序。 The Forbidden City and the markets at the Bell Tower and Drum Tower area correspond to the book's account of "court in the front, market in the back". The tome speaks of "an ancestral temple on the left, an altar of land and grain on the right", which is reproduced in the Imperial Ancestral Temple and the Altar of Land and Grain, located symmetrically on the east and west sides of the Central Axis.书中的记载包括“前朝后市”，对应于紫禁城和钟鼓楼地区的市场，以及“左祖右社”，指的是位于中轴线东西两侧的太庙和社稷坛。 "It is a carrier of traditional Chinese concepts and beliefs, constructing a symbol for national order and witnessing the formation of the Chinese cultural tradition of inclusion and diversity," Lyu said.吕舟说：“北京中轴线是中国传统观念和信仰的载体，构建了国家秩序的象征，并见证了包容和多元的中国文化传统的形成。”Between 2020 and 2023, an action plan for comprehensive protection of the axis was put into practice. Various efforts including renovation of historical buildings, related archaeological research, improvement of the environment, and activities to encourage wide participation of the public in this process followed.我国2020年至2023年通过《北京中轴线保护管理规划（2022年—2035年）》（以下简称《规划》），随后，我国开展了各种措施，包括历史建筑的翻新、相关考古研究、环境改善及鼓励公众广泛参与相关活动。 "Through this process, the historical pattern and historical charm of the Central Axis in Beijing are gradually being restored and vividly reproduced, with continuous improvement in the living environment and urban landscape along the axis," said Chu Jianhao, deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Office for Conservation and Management of Beijing Central Axis.北京中轴线申遗保护工作办公室专职副主任褚建好说：“申遗过程中，北京市以中轴线申遗保护为抓手带动老城整体保护，带动重点文物、历史建筑腾退，强化文物保护和周边环境整治。” "The inscription marks a new starting point. China will adhere to the World Heritage Convention, and continue making efforts to protect and restore heritage buildings, mitigate the impact of natural disasters, encourage public participation, strategically guide tourism development, and improve the capabilities of property interpretation and presentation," Li from the National Cultural Heritage Administration vowed at the session in New Delhi on Saturday.李群表示，申遗成功是新的起点，中国将切实履行《保护世界文化和自然遗产公约》，在文物建筑保护修缮、应对自然灾害影响、鼓励社区居民参与、科学引导旅游发展、提高阐释展示能力等方面持续发力，确保“北京中轴线”得到妥善保护传承。"China will continue to coordinate the management and protection of World Heritage Sites, strengthen exchange and cooperation with international organizations and other signatory countries… and contribute to promoting cultural exchange and mutual learning and building a community with a shared future for mankind," he added.未来，中国将继续统筹做好世界文化遗产保护管理工作，进一步加强与国际组织和各缔约国的交流合作，借助亚洲文化遗产保护联盟平台，为推动文明交流互鉴、构建人类命运共同体贡献力量。 Various activities to celebrate the inscription of the Central Axis on the UNESCO World Heritage List were held across Beijing over the weekend.7月27日至28日，北京各区举行了多项活动，庆祝北京中轴线被列入联合国教科文组织世界遗产名录。UNESCOn.联合国教科文组织

He attended both RWTH Aachen University and Georgia Tech. Before starting BLP Digital, he worked as a strategy consultant and specialist in digital business models and automation in the manufacturing industry. He has also successfully founded and managed three other startups, including the augmented reality startup CLIPTHIS. Tim's entrepreneurial journey was shaped by his family background; his parents were both entrepreneurs, leading to daily exposure to business discussions, and it was a path that felt natural for him to follow. Despite this, he was not pressured to take over the family business and chose engineering and strategy consulting as his path. BLP Digital, co-founded by Tim and his brother Sven, started with a sound footing because of the deep industry connections and technical expertise that came fromtheir parents being a part of the same industry. They initially focused on product development and engineering, bringing in co-founders with complementary skills to expand their market presence. BPL Digital's core offering revolves around machine learning to automate ERP processes, particularly document sharing between companies. They emphasize customer satisfaction, offering clients proof of concepts with actual data before committing them to services. BPL Digital maintains control over its growth trajectory as a bootstrapped company, incentivizing employees with shares to foster a sense of ownership. Their ambition is to move from ground zero to an eventual IPO, reflecting an exciting journey ahead for the company. This episode sheds light on Tim Beck's entrepreneurial path, BPL Digital's unique approach to solving industry challenges, and their vision for the future. Memorable Quotes: “Bringing in 2 more CEOs later made sense for us when we wanted to enter the market, and find people with more valuable skills in this area”“We consider ourselves a kind of a Chat GPT for documents, as our system can read things it has never seen before.” Don't forget to give us a follow on our Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and Linkedin accounts, so you can always stay up to date with our latest initiatives.

Timestamps: 6:48 - The market gap in radiology 15:47 - The accurateness of AI models 17:31 - Software patenting 26:35 - b-rayZ' subscription model 33:02 - Going international from day 1 About Alexander Ciritsis: Alexander Ciritsis is the co-founder and CTO at b-rayZ, an AI medical software for breast cancer early detection. He holds a PhD in Medical Science from RWTH Aachen University and was a researcher at University Hospital Aachen and Universitätsspital Zürich before starting b-rayZ in 2019. During his time as a research scientist in the medical field, Alexander Ciritsis noticed a clear gap in the radiology market: not only is there a lot more data for radiologists to analyze nowadays (a CT scan takes 12 secs to give you 128 slides, whereas 10 years ago it took 5 min to provide 30 slides), but only 10% of radiologists and radiographers are breast imaging specialists, in spite of the growing number of exams performed globally (270M+). Add to that the fact that breast density (a factor which varies naturally from person to person) makes catching lesions and cancer more difficult, and that it's up to the physician to determine whether or not the breast is dense enough to warrant further testing, and you've got a perfect storm for malpractice suits. b-rayZ offers an AI solution that provides standardized, reproducible and real-time classification of breast density with a proven accuracy of 93%. This means that people with dense breasts are more likely to be directed towards further testing, and so the likelihood of breast cancer being detected early on and successfully combated by cancer treatments increases. b-rayZ does not claim to diagnose cancer themselves: they simply help smooth and improve the workflow that does detect it. They haven't patented their code (since people could code around the patent anyways) but they have patented the process of training and developing their AI software.  Currently they are looking forward to expanding into the US market, and in 2022 they raised a CHF 4 million round partially funded through the Swisspreneur Syndicate. "Outsource as little as possible. Your IP is your most precious asset, and you need to protect it."

In der Nachmittagsfolge begrüßen wir heute Oliver Eischet, Co-Founder und CEO von Specter Automation, und sprechen mit ihm über die erfolgreich abgeschlossene Seed-Finanzierungsrunde in Höhe von 2,7 Millionen Euro.Specter Automation hat eine Software entwickelt, die ein datengetriebenes Baustellenmanagement anhand des 3D-Modells der entsprechenden Baustelle ermöglicht. Durch die Verknüpfung bestehender Daten im 3D-Modell wird die digitale Planung der Bauvorhaben auch in der Ausführung effizient eingebunden. Das Assistenzsystem zeigt Bauleitenden alle relevanten Informationen von den Arbeitsschritten über Materialmengen bis hin zu Zeit- und Kostenangaben. Dabei können im 3D-Modell die Bauteile auch einzeln angeklickt werden. Somit kann die Baustelle datenbasiert und fast vollständig digital gesteuert werden. Zudem automatisiert das Startup aufwendige und fehleranfällige Prozesse wie beispielsweise die Kommunikation von Aufgaben, die Fortschrittsmeldung der Baustelle, die Dokumentation der abgeschlossenen und verzögerten Aufgaben sowie die Aktualisierung des Terminplans. Anwendende sollen dabei nach Unternehmensangaben bis zu 40 % des wöchentlichen Organisationsaufwandes einsparen können. Specter Automation wurde im Jahr 2021 von Ingenieurinnen, Ingenieuren, Wirtschaftswissenschaftlerinnen und -wissenschaftlern der RWTH Aachen University sowie der WHU – Otto Beisheim School of Management gegründet. Mittlerweile beschäftigt das Unternehmen rund 20 Mitarbeitende. Als eines der ersten Pilotprojekte wurde die Software bereits für den Bau einer Logistik- und Produktionshalle eingesetzt. Außerdem wurden das „Le Quartier Central“ in Düsseldorf sowie die Sanierung und der Neubau des Dreikönigsgymnasiums in Köln mit der Software des Startups begleitet.Das ConstructionTech-Startup hat nun in einer Seed-Runde 2,7 Millionen Euro unter der Führung vom TechVision Fonds eingesammelt. Neben dem Lead-Investor haben sich auch LBBW Venture Capital und Xdeck VC sowie erfahrene und branchennahe Business Angels aus Deutschland und den USA an der Finanzierungsrunde beteiligt. Mit dem frischen Kapital möchte Specter Automation sein modellbasiertes Assistenzsystem zur Planung und Koordination von Baustellen weiterentwickeln und die Markteinführung beschleunigen.

Professor Günther Schuh befasst sich als Wissenschaftler und Unternehmer mit disruptiven Innovationen, Informations- und Produktionsmanagement sowie nachhaltigen Mobilitätslösungen. Aus dem Umfeld der Elektromobilität ist er sicherlich mit drei Firmen, an welchen er maßgeblich beteiligt war (Gründer und CEO), ein Begriff: StreetScooter, e.GO Mobile AG und e.GO MOOVE. Mit seinem mittlerweile vierten Projekt wolle er nun abermals die Mobilität verändern.  e.Volution, auf diesen Namen lautet sein viertes Unternehmen, welches er neben seiner Professur am Lehrstuhl für Produktionssystematik, an der RWTH Aachen University, gegründet hat. Im gemeinsamen Podcast haben wir uns über e.Volution und die Vision dahinter unterhalten. Haben aber auch ein paar Zahlen, Daten und Fakten an die Hand bekommen, wie das erste Elektro-Fahrzeug, welches im industriellen Kreislaufwirtschaft-Ansatz erdacht wurde, die Mobilität von Morgen verändern kann. Nachhaltigkeit kommt in diesem Fall nicht durch verbesserte Prozesse zum Vorschein. Sondern durch das Entfallen eben dieser. Ohne hierbei Nachteile beim Fahrzeug selbst in Kauf zu nehmen. Ganz im Gegenteil. Durch den Wasserstoff-Hybrid-Antrieb gebe es fast so etwas wie "unendliche Reichweite", insofern man das Prinzip dahinter für sich auch in die Tat umzusetzen vermag. All dies zahlt darauf ein, dass der SUV, als auch der Batterie-Bus Meta als umweltfreundlichste E-Fahrzeuge der Welt gelten. Im Detail gibt es wie gewohnt sämtliche Infos und Einblicke im Podcast. Von daher viel Freude bei dem Gespräch mit Prof. Günther Schuh von e.Volution. Es lohnt sich reinzuhören!

Platone, an acronym for PLATform for Operation of distribution NEtworks, is a four-year Horizon 2020 project. It involves an international consortium of energy and IT experts, which works jointly to develop solutions to make flexible power generation and consumption a tradable good. Unlocking these flexibilities allows integrating more renewable energies while maintaining grid stability. And in consequence to realize an open and non-discriminatory market, linking users, aggregators and operators. Project coordinator Antonello Monti, University Professor and Director of the Institute for Automation of Complex Power Systems at RWTH Aachen University says, “Platone is unique in its approach. While creating open and fair conditions for all the stakeholders in managing flexibility, it promotes a tight interaction between markets and operation. This tight link is critical for the grid of the future where the dynamics will be faster requiring more and more real-time services and a high level of awareness for the operators.” Platone solutions will be implemented and tested in three of the participating countries: In the Italian case, Acea Energia S.p.A., represented by Areti S.p.A., with the support of Siemens, experienced Engineering – Ingegneria Informatica S.p.A. and start-up Apio S.r.l., will implement a local flexibility market in the metropolitan area of Rome. The objective of the German field test is to implement a flexibility management instance balancing generation and demand within an energy community to a virtual island. “The energy transition is only possible if customers are involved. And that's why I wish to emphasize that one key element of the Platone project is to create the condition for customers to be involved in the energy system” Antonello Monti And finally the Greek demonstration will take place in the Mesogeia area, which is considered suitable for demonstration purposes since it has a good penetration of various types of renewable energy sources, provides a mix of rural, urban and suburban areas with a customer mix including households and small, medium and large industries. According to Antonello Monti, “the more renewables we have in the grid, the more flexibility will play a role. And with Platone we wish to create the conditions to access as much flexibility as possible in the distribution grid, as well as to create fair data management”. Moreover, one of the main points of the Platone platform “is to facilitate the better use of the infrastructure we already have”. Listen to the full discussion and find out also how Platone assists both the local DSOs and TSOs by providing them solutions for their ever growing needs.

Listening to the growth of Mona in such a fast time has only gone to prove just how much needed this was. Dr Arne Peine Dr Peine, born 1986 studied medicine and business administration and is the co-founder and CEO of the medical technology start-up Clinomic. As an intensive care physician, he himself experienced the enormous challenges that intensive care medicine is already facing today, and which will have to be mastered in the future. Therefore, as a technical visionary at Clinomic, he is doing everything in his power to revolutionize the treatment of critically ill patients with Mona, the first intelligent and voice-controlled assistance system for intensive care medicine. Mona Mona is an innovative, voice-based assistance system of the latest generation, which supports patient care directly using algorithms, artificial intelligence, and telemedicine. Mona is the key to cost-controlled, evidence-based, and data-driven intensive care medicine and brings intensive care specialist expertise to every hospital bed. By means of the bedside system, the quality of the detailed documentation and an increase in the quality of treatment and an optimization of the treatment processes are achieved. About Clinomic: Clinomic was founded in 2019 as a spin-off from RWTH Aachen University. The company develops innovative solutions for critically ill patients and combines translational medical research, data science and computational intelligence. The company brings artificial intelligence directly to the patient's bed to support doctors and nursing staff with precise decisions, evidence-based treatment, and efficient use of time resources. With over 50 employees in Aachen, the company developed the medical product "Mona", which is now implemented in over 8 European countries in 40 hospitals. "Mona", short for "Medical On-Site Assistant", is an intelligent assistance system for intensive care medicine that supports doctors and nurses with treatment directly at the patient's bed. The device facilitates voice-controlled documentation, identifies relevant data, and thus contributes to the faster and better treatment of the critically ill. Mona is also used internationally to generate telemedical networks quickly and securely and thus to provide nationwide expertise in the field of intensive care medicine

Christian reveals the driving forces behind successful companies, like breakthrough innovation, radical innovation, disruptive innovation, architectural innovation, and incremental innovation. He highlights how although technology is involved in companies that disrupt markets, it is the business model that is always the most vital aspect. Christian shares how companies can counter disruption in their industry through organizational resilience and company culture. He shares how technology is blurring industry boundaries and what this means when identifying your competitors. Christian also discusses the pros and cons of visionary leaders and sustainable leadership. “Some of those companies that have been disrupting markets - there was technology involved, but it was the business model that was the most crucial thing.” - Christian Hopp This week on Innovation Talks: How Christian became fascinated in innovation management when obtaining his PH.D. Whether entrepreneurs still need business plans and when planning is effective and ineffective Why larger start-ups should create a founder's agreement to manage conflict Technology that is driving business decisions and the advent of machine learning and artificial intelligence The difference between disruptive and radical innovation and whether it is the technology or business model that primes success What you can do to counter disruption and the importance of understanding your customer How technology is blurring boundaries between industries The traits of leaders and visionaries versus sustainable leadership Inclusive research and innovation and the consequences of minorities not being involved in algorithm design Resources Mentioned: NPR Connect with Christian Hopp: BFH Christian Hopp on Twitter Christian Hopp on LinkedIn Email: hopp@bfh.ch This Podcast is brought to you by Sopheon Thanks for tuning into this week's episode of Innovation Talks.

Zweimal pro Tag lügt jeder Mensch. Doch wie gut können wir Lügen erkennen? Und was wäre, wenn wir immerzu hundertprozentig ehrlich wären? – Daniela probiert es aus: eine Woche lang sagt sie allen nichts als die Wahrheit!

Until the eighteenth century there were no professional dentists. The only way to deal with a serious case of toothache was to call on the services of blacksmiths, travelling showmen or so-called barber-surgeons, all of whom had a sideline in tooth extraction. But in 1728, French physician Pierre Fauchard published the first complete scientific description of dentistry and he is credited as being “the father of modern dentistry”. His book, Le Chirurgien Dentiste or The Surgeon Dentist, was translated into several languages. Joining Rajan Datar to discuss the painful and sometimes gruesome history of humans and their teeth are Dr. Scott Swank of the National Museum of Dentistry in Baltimore, US; Rachel Bairsto, Head of Museum Services at the British Dental Association and Professor Dominik Gross of RWTH Aachen University in Germany.

This interview is part of the Global Speaker Series. A podcast partnership between the Wyoming Humanities (ThinkWY.org) and the Jackson Hole Center for Global Affairs (www.jhcga.org).  With the goal of educating and inspiring listeners, the series interviews global thought leaders on relevant issues impacting Wyoming and the world such as the future of energy, the impacts of climate change, trends in business and entrepreneurship, foreign policy, issues impacting global coal communities, and more.  Jürgen Kretschmann , German economist and university president discusses the future of coal energy in Germany. Born and raised in Gelsenkirchen, Jürgen Kretschmann completed his education in business administration in Aachen, Bochum and Dortmund, he was awarded a doctoral degree in Economics in Göttingen. His post doctorate research followed at the RWTH Aachen University in 1998, specializing in geo-resources and materials science. Kretschmann held various management positions at Ruhrkohle AG. RAG AG, formerly Ruhrkohle AG, is the largest German coal mining corporation. The company headquarters are in Essen in the Ruhr area. The company was founded on 27 November 1968, consolidating several coalmining corporations into the Ruhrkohle AG.Jürgen served as personal advisor to the Deputy Chairman of the Executive Board and Labour Director of the RAG. In 2001, he joined RAG BILDUNG GmbH as a member of the management board. Since 2006, he is chairperson of the management board of DMT-Gesellschaft für Lehre und Bildung GmbH and president of the Technische Hochschule Georg Agricola University in Bochum. DMT-Gesellschaft für Lehre und Bildung mbH (DMT-LB), based in Bochum, is a collective association of the German coal industry and acts as the funding organization of Deutsches Bergbau-Museum Bochum (German Mining Museum) .   Kretschmann is a member of numerous national and international professional bodies, currently (2018/19) President of the Society of Mining Professors – Societät der Bergbaukunde.[1][2] He is also a member of the National Academy of Mining Sciences of Kazakhstan[3] and a member of the Section Mining-Metallurgy of the International Academy of Ecology, Man and Nature Protection Science in Russia. Here is a sampling of some of the questions we asked Jürgen: Wyoming is the U.S.’s largest producer of coal and in recent years has been on the frontline in grappling with the changing economics of coal.  At one time the Ruhr region that you come from in Germany, was one of Europe’s leading coal producing regions.  Why did mines in Germany close and what was the government response? What are Germany’s current climate goals?  Does Germany plan to continue to use coal as part of its energy mix into the future? What are the main differences between Germany and the US in dealing with these public policy challenges – for example the loss of jobs in coal mining? On the energy front – here in Wyoming there has been a big push to lead the nation in carbon capture technologies.  Are there similar efforts underway in Germany?

For this episode I speak with Dr. Rüdiger Eichel, professor for Materials and Processes for Electrochemical Energy Conversion and Storage at the RWTH Aachen University, and Scientific Director for the Institute for Energy and Climate Research at the Research Center Jülich in Germany. Dr. Eichel gives us an insight into the chances and challenges of the Energiewende. The new found interest in climate issues in the public that can be seen in the Fridays for Future movement and the outcomes of the EU parliament elections, make him optimistic. He now sees the chance to talk with society about the technical possibilities to switch to fully renewable energy sources, how long it might take to implement, and how much it might cost financially and in terms of living quality. Listen to the Full Conversation on Patreon! Energiewende is not Enough Many of you may have heard the name of the project to transition the German energy sector “Energiewende” - a name that connotes the energy transition with a course correction and - at least to me - also has an optimistic association. The goal of the Energiewende is to achieve 80% of electricity to come from renewable sources by 2050, while at the same time leaving fossil fuels and nuclear power behind.   But the Paris Agreement asks for CO2 emission reduction across the board. And although the energy sector is the largest producer of carbon emissions in Germany, it is not the only one. In order to reach the goals of the Paris Agreement, the mobility and transportation sector, as well as the industrial sector need to be transformed as well. This means that Germany, one of the most industrialized countries in the world with a population of 80 Million people ranking 4th in GDP worldwide behind the USA, China, and Japan, is setting out to re-invent its economy at its core. A challenge, and a chance at the same time. More Renewables Needed than Planned In order to charge all batteries, load all fuel cells, and produce synthetic fuels and chemical compounds for the chemical industry, we need additional power. And this is a problem since citizens in Germany are already complaining about wind turbines in their neighborhoods. Bavaria even changed the regulations making it basically impossible to add more turbines. Rüdiger Eichel is optimistic that we can achieve our goals. However, what has to happen first is a serious discussion within society about what we are willing to change and at what speed. Powering the Mobility and Transportation Sector Manufacturers are focusing on using lithium ion batteries for their electrical vehicles. However, with the global economy moving to electric personal mobility, lithium might become a rare element. And electric vehicles are currently too expensive for 80% of Germans. Ramping up EV production and sales significantly in the next 10 years will be difficult. Heavy duty and long distant transport, however, will likely never be done with battery powered vehicles. This is mostly because batteries - although high in efficiency - have a low energy density, meaning in order to have sufficient energy on board, planes and ships would have to deal with heavy additional loads. Here, synthetic fuels would be a solution. Unfortunately, at the moment their production cost is 5-8 times as high as fossil fuels. Eichel estimates that we could reduce the price for synthetic fuels (made from waste CO2) to twice as high compared to fossil fuels. But while synthetic fuels need to be produced using power, oil doesn't need as much processing to be used as fuel. So synthetic fuels can never be as cheap as fossil fuels. This is where a carbon tax can be used to make fossil fuels less profitable. And in the end, this would still mean that travel and shipping of goods will be much more expensive than today. We might not be able to go on vacations as often, or have off-season fruits and vegetables in the supermarket all year around.

Dr. Fabian Lemke is a co-founder and managing director at nuventura. Together with nuventura, Fabian is working on eliminating SF6 – the most potent greenhouse gas – from the electricity grid. Their innovative switchgear technology simply replaces SF6 with dry air, which not only leads to environmental benefits, but also enables significant performance advantages. A switchgear is an absolutely essential component of an electricity grid. It controls and distributes electrical power flow in the electricity grid network. Existing gas insulated switchgear (GIS) predominantly use sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) – the most potent greenhouse gas in existence - as an electrically insulating medium and often also as a breaking medium. The gas is 23,500 times stronger than CO2 in terms of its global warming potential (1). It also has an extremely long lifetime of 3,200 years (2). Our aim is to eliminate SF6 from the electrical grid while improving the switchgear ‘s performance. Prior to nuventura, Fabian worked for 5 years in the energy sector for McKinsey and 3 years as a founder and CEO of Sanubi. He holds an engineering degree in Reactor Technology from the RWTH Aachen University and a PhD in Engineering from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. Fabian is a proud father of two little girls.

Co-Founder, Urban Detail - on the traditional Korean house, the Hanok, in Korea's past and present Whether in Myeondong, Yeoido, or in the famous Gangnam - skyscrapers and design buildings abound in Seoul. The South Korean capital, a city in ashes at the end of the Korean War, has become within a few decades a vibrant city and a fine example of architectural innovation and modernity. What fewer people know, however, is that recently there has also been a renewed interest in Korean traditional architecture. The hanok, the Korean ancestral house, has become increasingly popular among South Koreans and the government is now actively promoting it, domestically and abroad. In order to learn more about the hanok, its characteristics and history, as well as its current position in South Korean society, we met with Daniel Tändler, an architect specialized in the renovation of hanoks in Seoul. Daniel Tändler initially studied Economics at the University of Göttingen before changing field and studying Architecture and Urban Planning at RWTH Aachen (University of Aachen) in Germany. After graduation, he worked for a Korean architecture firm, a guga, during several years and eventually founded Urban Detail - Seoul, a planning office for traditional and modern Korean architecture and design with two Korean partners. He has also contributed to the foundation of the Chamoori cooperative, a construction company focused on traditional Korean architecture.

The term sustainability and phrase sustainable development were popularised with the publication of Our Common Future, a report released by the World Commission on Environment and Development in 1987. Also known as the Brundlandt report, it introduced the widely quoted definition of sustainable development: -development which meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs-. The report argued that economic development and social equity were necessary in order to protect the environmental and that the goals of economic well-being, equity and environmental protection could be reconciled if social and environmental considerations were systematically integrated into all decisions affecting the economy. Since the publication of the Brundtland report sustainable development has been widely accepted as a guiding principle, and yet the concept remains elusive and implementation has proven difficult. This is caused by the fact that economic development, social equity, and environmental protection are contradictory areas that are difficult to be reconciled. As a result the report is seen by many as a landmark in environmental politics and diplomacy while others decry it as a missed opportunity. In a newly published book entitled Defining Sustainable Development for Our Common Future. A History of the World Commission on Environment and Development Iris Borowy critically examines the history and impact of the Brundtland Commission. The book explores how the work of the Commission brought together contradictory expectations and world views in the concept of sustainable development as a way to reconcile these profound differences. This episode of Exploring Environmental History examines these contradictions as well as the historical context of sustainability with the author of Defining Sustainable Development, Iris Borowy. She is a researcher at the Institute of History, Theory and Ethics in Medicine of RWTH Aachen University, in Germany.

In 1971, Leon O. Chua published a seminal paper on the missing basic circuit element.  Leon O. Chua and Sung-Mo Kang published a paper, in 1976, that described a large class of devices and systems they called memristive devices and systems.  Just recently, Stan Williams and his research team at HP Labs unveiled a two-terminal titanium dioxide nanoscale device in Nature magazine that exhibited memristor characteristics. This symposium will explore the potential of memristors and memristive systems as they advance state of the art nano-electronic circuits.
