Non-linear dynamics and critical transitions in neonatal brain
… If the dynamical mechanisms responsible for transitions to seizure states can be understood, it may be possible to enhance the methods used for the detection of seizure events. One potential candidate to describe the events that trigger a seizure is a `critical transition'. Classical early …

Gait Phase Estimation and Foot Trajectory Prediction During Dynamic Walking Using Gated Recurrent Units
… continuous motion, they often overlook critical transitions between walking and standing, which are essential for natural locomotion. We propose in this study a foot trajectory prediction approach which leverages a recurrent deep learning architecture to make predictions based on …

Relationship Marketing im Schweizer Private Banking: Beziehungsmanagement zur Stärkung der Kundenbindung und Steigerung des ökonomischen Kundenwerts – eine induktiv-abduktive Untersuchung auf Basis der Gioia-Methodologie
… and trusted relationship management has become a critical differentiator, particularly in the high-net-worth (HNWI) and ultra-high-net-worth (UHNWI) segments. This dissertation addresses the need for a deeper understand-ing of how Relationship Managers (RMs) build and maintain lasting client …

Engineering the future of Hybrid Materials with Coarse-Grained Molecular Dynamics
… to complex applications. These materials are critical in areas such as energy storage, environmental sustainability, and biomedical engineering, where conventional single-component materials often fall short of the required versatility and performance. A key tool for understanding and …

Rate-induced tipping in a moving habitat
… to shifting habitats, using the framework of ``critical transitions'' or ``tipping points''. Specifically, it explores the persistence of a single species in a fast-moving habitat, and how the nature of its population growth affects its adaptability. The spatiotemporal evolution of the species …

Play and playfulness in organizations. Exploring post-succession role transitions through family day play dynamics
… into the dynamics of organizational life and the critical transitions in family-owned enterprises. The first significant contribution is the theoretical synthesis and reorganization of the literature on organizational play. By addressing definitional challenges and introducing an integrated model …

Acute-To-Home Care Nursing Handoffs: Distributed Cognition Across Patterns of Knowledge
… communication of patient information during care transitions is fundamental to safe care. Studies show that handoffs or transfers of patient care from one provider to another are susceptible to communication failures (Riesenberg et al., 2009a). Most studies on communication failures focus on …

Predicting and identifying signs of criticality near neuronal phase transition
This thesis examines the critical transitions between distinct neural states associated with the transition to neuron spiking and with the induction of anaesthesia. First, mathematical and electronic models of a single spiking neuron are investigated, focusing on stochastic subthreshold dynamics on …
