Inheritance is often invoked to explain this heterogeneity, such as preexisting anisotropies in rock composition, rheology, and deformation. Here, we use high-resolution 3-D thermal-mechanical numerical models of continental extension to demonstrate that rift-parallel heterogeneity may develop solely through fault network evolution during the transition from distributed to localized deformation. In our models, the initial phase of distributed normal faulting is seeded through randomized initial strength perturbations in an otherwise laterally homogeneous lithosphere extending at a constant rate. Continued extension localizes deformation onto lithosphere-scale faults, which are laterally offset by tens of km and discontinuous along-strike. These results demonstrate that rift- and margin-parallel heterogeneity of large-scale fault patterns may in-part be a natural byproduct of fault network coalescence.}, language = {en} } @misc{GebserKaufmannSchaub2012, author = {Gebser, Martin and Kaufmann, Benjamin and Schaub, Torsten H.}, title = {Multi-threaded ASP solving with clasp}, series = {Postprints der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe}, journal = {Postprints der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe}, number = {586}, issn = {1866-8372}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-41397}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-413977}, pages = {21}, year = {2012}, abstract = {We present the new multi-threaded version of the state-of-the-art answer set solver clasp.

The ability to synchronize the mechanical muscle oscillations measured by Mechanomyography (MMG) is not described sufficiently. Likewise, the behavior of myofascial oscillations was not considered yet during muscular interaction of two human subjects. The purpose of this study is to investigate the myofascial oscillations intra- and interpersonally. For this the mechanical muscle oscillations of the triceps and the abdominal external oblique muscles were measured by MMG and the triceps tendon was measured by mechanotendography (MTG) during isometric interaction of two subjects (n = 20) performed at 80\% of the MVC using their arm extensors. The coherence of MMG/MTG-signals was analyzed with coherence wavelet transform and was compared with randomly matched signal pairs. Each signal pairing shows significant coherent behavior. Averagely, the coherent phases of n = 485 real pairings last over 82 ± 39 \% of the total duration time of the isometric interaction. Coherent phases of randomly matched signal pairs take 21 ± 12 \% of the total duration time (n = 39). The difference between real vs. randomly matched pairs is significant (U = 113.0, p = 0.000, r = 0.73). The results show that the neuromuscular system seems to be able to synchronize to another neuromuscular system during muscular interaction and generate a coherent behavior of the mechanical muscular oscillations. Potential explanatory approaches are discussed.}, language = {en} } @misc{NiedlBerensteinBeta2016, author = {Niedl, Robert Raimund and Berenstein, Igal and Beta, Carsten}, title = {How imperfect mixing and differential diffusion accelerate the rate of nonlinear reactions in microfluidic channels}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-95810}, pages = {6451 -- 6457}, year = {2016}, abstract = {In this paper, we show experimentally that inside a microfluidic device, where the reactants are segregated, the reaction rate of an autocatalytic clock reaction is accelerated in comparison to the case where all the reactants are well mixed. We also find that, when mixing is enhanced inside the microfluidic device by introducing obstacles into the flow, the clock reaction becomes slower in comparison to the device where mixing is less efficient. Based on numerical simulations, we show that this effect can be explained by the interplay of nonlinear reaction kinetics (cubic autocatalysis) and differential diffusion, where the autocatalytic species diffuses slower than the substrate.}, language = {en} } @misc{SchwarzeMuellerAstetal.2014, author = {Schwarze, Thomas and M{\"u}ller, Holger and Ast, Sandra and Steinbr{\"u}ck, D{\"o}rte and Eidner, Sascha and Geißler, Felix and Kumke, Michael Uwe and Holdt, Hans-J{\"u}rgen}, title = {Fluorescence lifetime-based sensing of sodium by an optode}, publisher = {The Royal Society of Chemistry}, address = {Cambridge}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-76785}, pages = {14167 -- 14170}, year = {2014}, abstract = {We report a 1,2,3-triazol fluoroionophore for detecting Na+ that shows in vitro enhancement in the Na+-induced fluorescence intensity and decay time.
