In the following my Papers in Scientific Journals are listed. Most of them are open-accessed and published via Elsevier. Some papers are included in congress proceedings where I also gave a presentation. Each of my Doctoral Research Studies has been peer-reviewed in at least one scientific journal, whereby at least two, usually 3 to 4, reviewers have evaluated the scientific character of my written research results. In the meantime, I myself am a reviewer for manuscripts in my Dissertation-related field at several international scientific publishers.
