This study is therefore dedicated to both a decidedly historical presentation of the development of the state and the state system and a reconstruction of the theory of the English school. In the context...

The subject of the work is the detailed statistical analysis of stratified and sheared flames. For this purpose, a generic, premixed, piloted burner is used, which enables stratification and shearing of the fuel-oxidizer mixtures that emerge through two independent annular gaps. To ensure that the processes that occur remain unaffected, laser-based methods are used to investigate them. The detailed characterization of the burner is carried out using thermographic phosphors to determine the wall temperatures. Combined Raman/Rayleigh spectroscopy is used for...
