Schon seit einigen Jahrzehnten wird die Sportwissenschaft durch computergestützte Methoden in ihrer Arbeit unterstützt. Mit der stetigen Weiterentwicklung der Technik kann seit einigen Jahren auch zunehmend die Sportpraxis von deren Einsatz profitieren. Mathematische und informatische Modelle sowie Algorithmen werden zur Leistungsoptimierung sowohl im Mannschafts- als auch im Individualsport genutzt. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird das von Prof. Perl im Jahr 2000 entwickelte Metamodell PerPot an den ausdauerorientierten Laufsport angepasst. Die Änderungen betreffen sowohl die interne Modellstruktur als auch die Art der Ermittlung der Modellparameter. Damit das Modell in der Sportpraxis eingesetzt werden kann, wurde ein Kalibrierungs-Test entwickelt, mit dem die spezifischen Modellparameter an den jeweiligen Sportler individuell angepasst werden. Mit dem angepassten Modell ist es möglich, aus gegebenen Geschwindigkeitsprofilen die korrespondierenden Herzfrequenzverläufe abzubilden. Mit dem auf den Athleten eingestellten Modell können anschliessend Simulationen von Läufen durch die Eingabe von Geschwindigkeitsprofilen durchgeführt werden. Die Simulationen können in der Praxis zur Optimierung des Trainings und der Wettkämpfe verwendet werden. Das Training kann durch die Ermittlung einer simulativ bestimmten individuellen anaeroben Schwellenherzfrequenz optimal gesteuert werden. Die statistische Auswertung der PerPot-Schwelle zeigt signifikante Übereinstimmungen mit den in der Sportpraxis üblichen invasiv bestimmten Laktatschwellen. Die Wettkämpfe können durch die Ermittlung eines optimalen Geschwindigkeitsprofils durch verschiedene simulationsbasierte Optimierungsverfahren unterstützt werden. Bei der neuesten Methode erhält der Athlet sogar im Laufe des Wettkampfs aktuelle Prognosen, die auf den Geschwindigkeits- und Herzfrequenzdaten basieren, die während des Wettkampfs gemessen werden. Die mit PerPot optimierten Wettkampfzielzeiten für die Athleten zeigen eine hohe Prognosegüte im Vergleich zu den tatsächlich erreichten Zielzeiten.

For the advancement of spinelectronicsmuch importance is attached to Heusler compounds. Especially compounds with the stoichiometry Co2YZ are supposed to exhibit a large asymmetry between majority and minority electrons at the Fermi edge. Ideally, only majority states are present. This property leads to high magnetoresistive effects. However, the experimental results available at present fall behind the expectations. In particular, a strong reduction of the spin asymmetry with increasing temperature is problematic. For this reason,rnthe investigation of further representatives of this material class as well as optimization of their deposition is required. Therefore, during the course of this work thin Heusler films with the composition Co2Cr0.6Fe0.4Al and Co2Mn1−xFexSi were fabricated. At first, this was accomplished by sputter deposition, which is the standard technique for the preparation of thin Heuslerrnfilms. It resulted also here in samples with high structural order. On the other hand, these films exhibit only a reduced magnetic moment. To improve this situation, a laser ablation system was constructed. The resulting film deposition under ultra-high vacuum led to a clear improvement especially of the magnetic properties. In addition to the improved deposition conditions, this method allowed the flexible variation of the film stoichiometry as well. This possibility was successfully demonstrated in this work by deposition of epitaxial Co2Mn1−xFexSi films. The availableness of these high quality quaternary alloys allowed the systematic investigation of their electronic properties. Band structure calculations predict that the substitution of Mn by Fe lead to a shift of the Fermi energy over the minority energy gap, whereas the density of states remains nearly unchanged. This prediction could by tested by electronic transport measurements. Especially the normal Hall effect, which was measured at these samples, shows a transition from a hole-like charge transport in Co2MnSi to an electron-like transport in Co2FeSi. This is in accordance with corresponding band structure calculations as well as with comparative XMCD experiments. Furthermore, the behavior of the anomalous Hall effect was studied. Here it could be seen, that the effect is influenced by two mechanisms: On the one hand an intrinsic contribution, caused by the topology of the Fermi surface and on the other hand by temperature dependent impurity scattering. These two effects have an opposing influence on the anomalous Hall effect. This can lead to a sign reversal of the anomalous contribution. This behavior has been predicted just recently and was here systematically investigated for the first time for Heusler compounds.

The aim of this thesis was to establish a method for repeated transfection of in vitro transcribed RNA (IVT-RNA) leading to a sustained protein expression lasting for days or even weeks. Once transfected cells recognize IVT-RNA as "non-self" and initiate defense pathways leading to an upregulated interferon (IFN) response and stalled translation. In this work Protein Kinase R (PKR) was identified as the main effector molecule mediating this cellular response. We assessed four strategies to inhibit PKR and the IFN response: A small molecule PKR inhibitor enhanced protein expression and hampered the induction of IFN-transcripts, but had to be excluded due to cytotoxicity. A siRNA mediated PKR knockdown and the overexpression of a kinase inactive PKR mutant elevated the protein expression, but the down-regulation of the IFN response was insufficient. The co-transfer of the viral inhibitors of PKR and the IFN response was most successful. The use of E3, K3 and B18R co-transfection enabled repeated IVT-RNA-based transfection of human fibroblasts. Thus, the developed protocol allows a continuous IVT-RNA encoded protein expression of proteins, which could be the basis for the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) for several therapeutic applications in regenerative medicine or drug research.
